Backing up Windows Mail -- almost 100,000 files!

[turnstyle]

Hi all,

With Outlook Express, I've grown accustomed to backing up the folder
that contains the .dbx files, ie:

C:\Documents and Settings\{USER}\Local Settings\Application Data
\Identities\{GUID}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\

So I was expecting that I would simply do the same with the Windows
Mail folder -- ie, that I would now back up:

C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\

But now it seems Windows Mail stores each message as a separate file,
and I have almost 100,000 files!

Is it not reasonable to use backup apps like Second Copy or SyncToy to
back up such a Windows Mail folder?

Thanks, -Scott
