but I would think that you would have to use the Files & Settings Transfer Wizard to "Restore" the said file first.
See if you have that option in the wizard.

How can I import the email account settings from a backup on an external drive?
I used the files & settings transfer wizard to backup all the files on my pc before formatting the drive and reinstalling windows xp.
After an initial problem viewing my old outlook.pst file caused by some mcafree drivers which I have now corrected so that I am able to view all of
my old contacts and emails etc, but I can't work out how to import the email account settings. There were around 6 pop3 accounts setup, and I really don't
want to hunt around for all the various passwords, pop3 settings etc.
I have located the outlook.srs file within the backup file and tried importing that but that didn't work and am now stumped as to how I can do this?
