Yeah, like James said, that's the file. You have to make sure that you reimport it properly, though. If you just copy the file over, there's a chance that it'll fuck everything up. 800MB is bloody huge, though. You should really clean out your inbox. :P |

Yes. I just did a reformat a couple months ago, so that's the file. You might also want to back up your bookmarks, and your fonts. I forgot about those.

According to Outlook it stores stuff in a "C Documents and Settings\Roger\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst" file.It's about 795 megs, so I'm assuming that the one? |

The procedure should be identical for either, I think. I use Outlook Express, but I have a bit of experience with Outlook. I think you have to go to File>Import and Export or something like that. For your contacts, you can either export as comma-separated-values or as an Outlook data file. You shoudl be able to to export your messages as a data file or something similar. Alternatively, you could just find the data files for Outlook (they're somewhere in the hidden Local Settings folder on C  and copy them onto the new computer.

Hard drive might die soon... I'm backing up stuff onto CD cuz I think my hard drive is about to die. One thing I do need help with is how to backup my Microsoft Outlook mail files. Any suggestions? |
