Email address backup?

[BVD]

Re: Outlook Express.
Is there a single file I can save that
contains my addresses and emails ..
or should I just jot them down manually?
Thanx.

only know in outlook but maybe the same... outlook.pst and mailbox.pab.... regardless you should always keep all your contact info on paper in addition to computer... never know what may happen to your pc

The way to back up Express is as follows:

1. To back up Address book copy all files in - C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book

2. To backup all messages copy all files in - C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities

Or do a search for *.dbx and *.wab and just copy thoses. Either way works fine.

Express Backup will create a single, compressed files for Outlook files. I use it to move settings, mail and address book to my latest machines. Works great!

you could always use the export utility to do your backup and save that to FD.
