Is it Outlook Express or the real deal. If you mean Express then no there is no option to export the mail account settings. But all of them are saved in the registry which means you can export every account in a different file and just import them back on the others computers by double clicking. Account Settings in the registry are located in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager\Accounts
Under "Accounts" click on your 1st email account and click "File">"Export" and make sure "selected Branch" is marked. Choose a filename and export.

Hope that helps
Good luck

It dpeends on how you have things setup, but you CAN export your folders as a PST file then copy that to another PC and import it.
