To clarify - Which one are you using??

Outlook express = XP and earlier operating systems.
Windows mail = Vista

If it is windows mail and vista.

2 methods to save mail

1. Create a folder/s for saved mail in your documents. Highlight individual
email and then File menu - save as - navigate to the folder you created,
and save.

2. Open C or the drive where your program files are kept. Tools - folder
options - View tab. Half way down select "Show hidden files and folders"
( its safer to unselect this when finished). - OK.

Open the users folder - Your folder ( whatever you'ved named it) - AppData -
Local - Microsoft - Windows mail - local folders. Open the folder you want
to save and sellect all and paste it into the folder you created.

For the contacts create a similar folder in documents. Open your folder from
desktop. Open the contacts folder and copy and paste the contents.


To back up to a cd or flash drive just copy and paste the folders you just
created in documents.

I hope this is what you needed.
