If the email items are actually downloaded into Outlook's message store,
probably your PST file, they won't go away when you change accounts. I moved
between ISPs a few years ago and still have all the messages from the
previous one.

I am going to have to change my email address (e.g. Yahoo to Netzero). I
don't want to lose the sent/receieved messages for the old account that I
have in Outlook (I think it is 2003, but am not sure). Is there any way
to
do this?
