Hi
I'm about to replace my 20GB hard drive with a new 80GB
one and while I have backed up all my documents, photos
etc I have a large number of emails that I want to save.

Any ideas on how I do this?

Thanks.

You need to back up your .PST file. Goto File/ Import and Export and Export
to a file, to a .pst. Select all subfolders and export everything to a
location. Now save that file to either an external CD or to the old HD. When
you install the new HD, you can either use the CD or plug in the old HD as a
slave drive and simply transfer the files over. Most HD's come with file
transfer utils nowadays anyways.

Also, if you have anything in Rules Wizard, you should back that up too.
