Can you choose WHAT to back up on Outlook?

[elenasofia_71]

I am using Outlook 2003. My e-mail is entirely related to work, and my
employer would like me to start backing it up regularly into its
system. I have been using Tasks, Calendar and Contacts also for
personal use. My employer does not mind, but they are interested in
making sure that I regularly back up my e-mail.

I am not familiar with my employer back up system, and I'll find out.
My question is: generally, do back up systems allow for choosing what
to back up? In theory, is it possible for me to back up Mail into my
employer system, and everything else, say, into an external hard drive?
If there is no flexibility in choosing what to back up, what do you
suggest I do?

Thanks.

If you are using an Exchange account leave up the backup process to the
Exchange admin.
