Default Moving Outlook to new PC

I am migrating an Outlook 2010 installation from one computer to another that, at least for a little while, will be on the same network.

Is there an easy way to move the accounts and personal folders from one installation to the other. I know in previous editions you could simply export the personal folders to a file (PST I think) and move it that way.

Can I just copy the complete file structure over from the old computer? (the files structure in the AppData directory)

C:\Users\Mickey\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\*. *
I'm thinking I can just install Outlook on the new computer and then copy over the AppData structure. WIll this work?
