By	Backup your email
Bill Williams	Uploaded - 9 Mar 2007 13:23 Here is a little tip that I use when I set up customer computers. Make a folder in your "My Documents" called "MailStore" Use the Outlook Express Tools... Options... Maintenance... Store Folder to move your outlook express message base to the new Mailstore Folder. Now all your email messages will be backed up when you backup your "My Documents" Folder. You do backup your "My Documents" don't you!!! As an extra refinement, use the Export facilities to save a copy of your email accounts and address book (repeat periodically) to save such things in the same MailStore folder. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q270670 [Link] Bill.
