Default Outlook email address books problems

I am talking about being able to back up my email account settings and
Outlook setup defaults, not contacts.


Account information is kept in the registry. There's no way to get it from an
old drive mounted as secondary..

I could not figure out where these signatures were, so I googled it. I found
this write up, which was very helpful in:

I do wish Microsoft would come up with some way to backup our own email
addresses and defaults.


Backing up is as easy as copying in Windows Explorer.

Can you back up the signatures? I can still boot to
the old hard drive and get info off if I need to.


If you haven't change the associated registry setting, sigatures are in
%AppData%\Microsoft\Signatures. Just copy them to make a backup.
