26316 2001-12-02 22:24:00 I have successfully located and saved to Zip drive my 'favourites' folders from I.E, but my question is where can I locate the folders that contain both my 'addresses and messages' so I can copy to Zip drive? I played with exporting addresses and messages but they dissappear off to Express or somewhere?? I also have 3 identities to save/back-up. Guest (0)

If you need to revert back to this older saved inbox just repalce it in the folder you got it from. Guest (0)

You can change it to somewhere more convenient if you like, e.g. a subfolder in My Documents so when you backup My Documents you get your messages too. Guest (0)
