Can someone tell me a) where to find Outlook Express
files (I've tried find *.dbx and drew a blank)and b) how
to back them up with XP back up option.

Many thanks

1. Open Outlook Express
2. From the Toolbar select Help > Contents and Index
3. Click on the Search tab and type in: Backup , and hit enter.
4. Click on the topic titled: "Compact and backup mail folders".

Hi, Carl.

It's easy to find them from OE: Tools | Options... | Maintenance tab, Store
Folder...
