OE > Options > Maintainece > Storage Folder Button\n\nNavigate to that folder; you will see files like inbox.dbx, and so on; each folder on outlook is saved as .dbx file.\n\nBack up this files and you are good to go.\n\nPlay around some, create folders, put mails you dont care for, and change them here and there - it will give you confidence and knowledge to back them up without much problems.

You can if you're using Outlook Express.  Under "File" at the top while that particular email is selected, choose "save as" and then rock and roll

Dewcoons answer is not only correct, but detailed, and the definitive answer to your question.\n\nTo use Outlook Express to back up your email you would:\n 1) subscribe to Yahoo Plus for about $20 / year\n 2) configure Outlook express to use the Yahoo mail servers for send (SMTP) functionality and receive (POP) functionality. \n\nThere are configuration instructions in Yahoo Mail for Outlook Express and other clients with more detail, under "Help" when logged into mail.\n\nPersonally I do exactly what you're asking about and find the $20/yr fee a good value, especially if you like to back up your data. If you do that you should also look at options to synchronize your Outlook Express and Yahoo Mail address books.\n\nGood luck!

DON'T USE OUTLOOK EXPRESS.\n\nSorry, it is really bad and very prone to viruses.  Using Yahoo's web based e-mail only.  It's got everything you need for e-mail including spell check, calendar, addresses, anti-virus and anti-spam.  And, it never will loose your data, like can happen with OE if you computer dies.  I speak from many many years of support and experience.

I use Oulook, but it is very similar to Outlook Express. Outlook comes with the Microsoft Office package, and is a much better program.\n\nOpen Outlook Expresss, and click on Tools, then Options. Now click on the Other tab, and you will see the AutoArchive feature in the middle. Click on AutoArchive, and uncheck the box that says AutoArchive ever ___ days.\n\nYou can change this setting to no more than 60 days, so if that isn't enough, just uncheck the box to turn it off.

In Outlook Express go into tools > options > security and remove the check from 'Do not allow attachments to be saved..........'.\n\nThat will fix it.

The only way to "backup" emails, is to copy the *.pst folder to another device. They don't really call it "backup", but rather export/import.\nThere is such a function in your email programme, or else you could use your search funtion from your O/S, to search for *.pst.

Outlook Express stores messages in files with a *.dbx extension.  simply saving these files won't help.  You must EXPORT the folder, using File/Export, and I suggest saving it as a TEXT file. ( IMPORTANT!! REMEMBER WHERE YOU SAVE THE EXPORT FILE!! )....Once the text file is exported and saved, you can burn it to a flopy or other removable media, and then use IMPORT to load them back into OE later...\n\nThe process is not ' intuitive', but it is relatively simple.

I can't remember what version of outlook express creates DBX files.  But what I would do is create a copy of those files, and also create a backup of your current mail folders if you have anything you want to save.  If you need help finding where your current files are stored, go to Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder, copy down the location, and close Outlook Express before copying the files.\n\nThen I'd go ahead and attempt to import them as either Outlook Express 4 or 6.  If it doesn't like the format, it will probably simply refuse to import anything.  If by chance it screws things up, well, that's what those two backup copies were for.

You won't be able to do this because Hot Mail is using is a server mail which doesn't allow someone to save information on its server.\n\n\nYou can do it  if you have e-mail account with POP3 or IMAP by using outlook express or other equivalent composing applications

Hey Satan what's up? Been awhile since I've talked to the devil (-:\n\nYou can also check with your ISP. I use Outlook Express for some dedicated email addresses and I have my pop3 mail server setup to "save a copy" of every email that passes thru. \n\nWorth a shot - what the heck. \n\nYou can also check your OE folders file in windows Explorer as it could be lingering around in there.\n\nMy folders file is located:\nC//\nDocuments and Settings\n(username)\nApplication Data\nLocal Settings\nApplication Data\nIdentities\nMicrosoft\nOutlook Express
