From MS KB: How to back up and to restore Outlook Express data
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270670/en-us

Outlook Express Tips, Tricks and Secrets for Backup and Restore
http://email.about.com/od/outlookexpressbackuphelp/

I have also changed the default location of where OE stores the .dbx files
(folders, address box, etc)
(this makes the directory path a little cleaner)
How to Change the Default Location of the Mail and the News Folders:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307971/en-us

Then I use SyncToy to do my backups (.dbx files and other exported files) to
another hard drive.
