    Outlook has a native backup function. In the File menu, click Import and Export, select Export to a File, click Next, choose Personal Folder File, click Next. The default selection is Personal Folders, click on Include subfolders, click Next, and choose a destination (the directory should match whatever backup device you use) and click Finish. Done.

    Good call emr , but since you didn't label the link, I'll just point out that it takes you to "Outlook 2003 Add-in: Personal Folders Backup" which pretty much does what slgrieb says, only 'better' as you can schedule backups etc

    More stuff about it here;-Using the Microsoft Outlook Personal Folders Backup tool (everything is on emr's link though , & I think this might just be a sly WotPP )
