Email Folders...Backup 1

[Extras]

I am going to have to do a reinstall of W2k on my computer and I was wondering if there was an effifient way I could back up some of emails in inbox and sent items folders?

I need the records and would hate to go through them individually!!

I am assuming that you are using Outlook.
if so, what you can do is to create a personal folder(which is a pst file) and the move all your files to a personal folder. Save the pst file to a disk, hdd or cd. This file can be as big as 2 gig.

I hope this helps.

My apologis - I hammered out that email at the end of a (very)long day.

I am using outlook express. The help in outlook express just mentioned to copy the folder - but I could not find the copy option in any of the menu options. When I select a folder in the inbox and right click - I do not see copy as an option....

Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the trouble!

Hello Mosmas

I just found out another method. I created a folder in my zip drive and just gragged the messages into it! I know the format is not within the outlook/express - but as records they do their job.
