OE to Outlook 2003

  • Follow


Hi everyone! I don't need newsgroups anymore...so....I am changing from using 
OE to Outlook. After importing all of my personal folders, etc. from OE I 
want to get rid of OE Identities that are taking up over 5GB of space on my 
drive. How do I do this? Can I just delete them or is there a process that I 
need to follow so I don't destroy XP or other apps?

One you've got everything in Outlook that you wanted, then you can remove 
your account configuration from OE via Tools-> Accounts...
Any remaining data files from OE (like dbx-files) can then be deleted if you 
want to free up space.
