Outlook Express Backup

[mCarla]

I want to reinstall Windows Xp soon, as I got a virus and after cleaning the computer doesn't work as smooth as before. I gives some strange errors and sometimes it justs hangs up... I want to backup Outlook Express emails and settings before reinstall, and restore afterwards. Any help?

My XP computer is dead - hardware failure.

But, Outlook Express should work pretty much the same as on earlier versions of Windows.

My Outlook Express, Version 6 (on my old 98 box) describes how to backup email. Go to HELP and select the Index. When the index shows up, enter "backing up mail folders" for your search topic. If that doesn't work, just type "back up" and see what you get. I suspect you'll find what you're looking for whether you're using Version 6 or something later.

Hope this helps!
