Carman, I also just swapped my e.mail over and my partner swapped all the addressess over for me. It took a few attempts before he did it. Our new e- mail page , when we went into the address book, had a "help" guide, which we printed out before we tried it. Basically you have to export the address book to a file that you have chosen, then you go into your new e-mail and import the file from wherever you sent it to. I've probably not explained it very well, but as I said, I didn't do it! Let me know if you need more help and I'll get him to explain it. Good luck!

Carmen you need to find your .pst file it should be somewhere in your C:\windows directory. Copy this file to your new computer and go to File > Import and Export and choose Import from file. Then follow the instructions on the wizard.
