A customer is on a networked Win2K PC and she uses Outlook for mail.  

This desktop PC was previously used by another staff member.  She has been using his logon details to get into the machine, where she had set up a mail account.  Kind of a 'cuckoo' sort of arrangement, if you know what I mean.

However, she wanted her own unique 'patch' so I set her up with her own login, password and mail account, using the details from her 'cuckoo' account.  Problem is, all of her previous stuff is in the folders of that account.  

How can I move her the contents of her Outlook folders to her new location?

I assume that the relevant folders will be called outlook.pst.  I found three on the pc, in various sub-folders of C:\Documents and Settings, one of 142mb, one of 15Mb and one of 112k.

I suspect that the 142mb belonged to the previous user, the 15mb is probably the one she's been using since she took over the PC, and the 112k file is probably the one I set up today.

How can I transfer her stuff from it's old location to the new?  Or is it just as simple as copying the contents of the 15mb pst folder to the 112k pst folder?

I'm no expert at this (as will be obvious:--)) but I tried the 'Import' thing.  That doesn't work, there's no option to import pst files that I could see.
