7. I'm, probably making my life more complicated than it needs to be.

Three accounts in TB - 2 personal and 1 business.

The business email is being forwarded to one of the personal emails. (I started doing that a few years ago for a reason that I can't recall.)

I did try to transfer the .pst files first to Outlook and then to TB. No luck in either case. The hard drive from the older computer stopped booting up about a month ago, but I still have it so that I can access files that I didn't transfer when I first got the new comptuer, including the .pst files. (I think I got most of the files I needed/wanted, so it's not a train smash if I can't access either the .pst files or any others for that matter.)

If I can save the .pst file from the working copy of Outlook (that I thought I had deleted but didn't), I will just delete outlook and see if that resolves the problem.

If it does, problem solved.

If it doesn't, I'll check with the company that hosts my business email, GoDaddy, and see if we can identify any forwarding.

And if the forwarding isn't there, I may just use a different email app for my personal email, and separate the business and personal emails that way. Maybe.

Thanks for your help.

Granted, first world problems, and not critical, but the annoying stuff is, well, it's damned annoying.
