What is the safest and fastest way to back up all the content of my Outlook
2003? That including all folders I have created for contacts and e-mails. I
have had nigthmares since I heard that exporting the pst file to My documents
is not a good idea. thanks Adrica

Fastest way is to close Outlook (ensure it is completely closed) and copy
the .pst file directly to the location of your choice. My Documents works
fine.
