Outlook Express

[dodo1]

Hi all,

Do you know where Outlook Express stores the saved emails? I can't find the folder with the emails... I would like to know this, because I have tons of emails on my computer and I would like to make a backup copy of them - just in case my PC crashes and the mails get deleted.

Thank you in advance!

Not sure if you can do this with outlook express but I backed up not only the outlook data files themselves but exported my emails to an excel spreadsheet just incase the backup file gets corrupted.

Then I switched to thunderbird. arty:

Hi,

Thank you for your fast help.

I was able to backup my email data after reading the MS FAQ.
