How to backup Outlook Express email folders and settings

[iorgobas]

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 erros and sometimes it justs hangs up... I want to backup Outlook Express emails and settings before reinstall, and restore afterwards. Any help?

:eek: :confused: :confused:

How to back up and recover Outlook Express data

Thank you very much for your suggestion.

That was just like what I needed. However, if I am to choose between a manual backup and a automated one ( made by a software ) I would go

with the last one, because I'm not the "do it your self" type, and I'm afraid of the possibility of losing it if I don't do the backup just right. However, after searching for similar software tools on the web I've found several , such as Outlook Express Backup Genie

This look like my problem is solved.

Thank you!
