I've lost my email files - help please !

David Owen

Moved house, PC crashed. Got to the point of using my back up floppy and
having to reinstall XP. Now everything is up and running, I cannot find my
old emails. Everything has been backed up in a Backup folder but I just
don't know what I am looking for. I know it's not a .csv file....

Can anyone help ????

On the menu Tools / options...
See the maintenance tab on the options dialog.
A button that says 'Store Folder' allows you to re-point to your old message
store.

A typical path is ...
C:\WINNT\Profiles\Administrator\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{BBBB7156-D0C8-4BED-9DE0-0F209F2CCDD2}\Microsoft\Outlook
Express

The files usually have the extension of .dbx
