I know this isn't the right group, but I've received serious helpful
suggestions with my scanning problems here. I tried the e-mail groups but
they all seem to be full of XXX spam and not very serious.

Does anyone know where I can go to get help with my Outlook Express e-mail?
I've recently had to change over from my Netscape which I had figured all
out. I am now trying to find out how to save an entire directory or folder
from the hard drive to floppy disk, essentially backing up information I've
collected from the Internet.

If anyone could direct me to the correct newsgroup I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.

Lynn

Outlook saves its email in a database, a complication accessing it.

Best bet, there are several FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) about Outlook
Express on the web, search www.google.com for
Outlook Express FAQ

for example, one at http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/backup/index.htm
discusses a free backup utility for OE (term MVP there is Microsoft Valuable
Player, an honorary title bestowed by Microsoft acknowledging skilled useful
helpers), but its probably best to start at that site's beginning...
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com

Also there is a large family of newsgroups named microsoft.public.outlook...

Be careful here ... in Micro$urf-Speak

Outlook Express
and
Outlook

Are two TOTALLY different things ... in fact, two totally
different PROGRAMS.

True enough, but which is not to say that Outlook Express is not also
discussed in those Outlook groups.

There is also a newsgroup at
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress

But yes, the web FAQ seems the right place to start.
