I have Outlook 2003 on both my old and new comuter. How can I copy my
Outlook contacts, Inbox and pst folders from my old computer to my new one?
Thanks,

Do not export unless you want to use data.
Simply copy and reuse the PST file. It's where all the mail, calendar,
contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:
