im doing this for my friend, on his old laptop hes using outlook and got all his emails on on it and his work have given him a new laptop and he's asked me is there any way to transfer all his emails on his old laptop to his new one?

thanks guys
 
Ah ok, then what you need to do is find out what his works email server information is and granted he isnt using a pst all his email should sync down to his account after you set it back up another computer. If he is using a pst file you can find this out by going to TOOLS-OPTIONS-MAIL SETUP-DATA FILES and will show what PST files you are using and you can copy those from one computer to another and add them in.

To see how the account is setup go to tools-email accounts-click next on view or change existing accounts and click change on his account.

Also he is probably using a VPN, my guess is you will probably need to contact his IT dept if that isnt already setup.
 
I'm a firm believer in using VMWare to create a virtual system on notebooks. Makes transfering to a new notebook really easy. Just replicate the drive.
