How do I convert Outlook 2007 files back to Outlook 2003?

[pinkyboyid]

Outlook 2003 should be capable of reading Outlook 2007 mail file .pst format. So, you just need to use the 'File>Open' option in Outlook 2003 and select the original Outlook 2007 mail filename.pst, which presumably you will have copied previously to an external USB drive if moving mail files between two different computers.

Just to clarify
Are you talking about your outlook .pst files used with Outlook 2007?
If so, using the import export function in Outlook (either 2003 or 2007) will import .pst files created in 2007.
The correct way would be:
Open the Outlook 2007.
Go File then Import Export
and Export as a .pst
Save it to an easily accessible location (i.e Desktop or a USB if it's on another PC)
Go to Outlook 2003
File
Import Export
Then import the .pst
