If you think your email messages stored on your computer are important,it
might be worth back up them on a regular basis to prevent them to be lost.
Here few easy steps to do the job:
Open Outlook Express
Click on Tools and select Option
On the next window click on Maintenance Tab and Store
Folder
On the next window press Tab key until you see all the words in the Text box are
being Highlighted
Right-click on it or press cntrl + c to copy the text and
click start
Click Run
On the next window right-click in the box and select past, or
press cntrl + v
Click Ok or press enter
Now you are in the folder where all your e-mails are stored.
Do whatever you
normally are doing to back-up your files on a removable media like a cd
or dvd.My personal suggestion is to use Nero
back-up.
