You will not be able to import the email settings unless you previously exported them, but it’s not a mammoth task to set up the account again.
Favorites, again are normally exported/imported, but the whole folder can be copied from old location to new location. If I remember correctly, in XP it is located at C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Favorites. I also cannot remember if it is a hidden folder. If it is, go to Folder Options > View Tab and select Show hidden files and folders.
