It's more tricky to move the email over (assuming you don't use a webmail

For that you either need to use the FAST wizard, or use Export/Import from
your mail tool


It's very easy with Thunderbird (Mozilla)

Copy across the Profiles dir and all subdirs to the new PC, install
Thunderbird, if Tb doesn't pick up the Profiles dir it will create a
default. Go into profile.ini or whatever it's called in the default,
edit the location to point to the new dir.

The procedure is as described on the Tb help website for moving the
mailbox to another location.

Of course, if you're using OE, you need to install Tb on the old machien
first to import the OE files into the Tb profile.
