I am thinking of getting a new computer but an at a loss as to how I can save all my Outlook Express folders or transfer to new computer.

I find I cannot save the folders as a whole,would have to do each message individually...I have hundreds !!!!!!

However,I will be using the same broadband connection,could this mean I will still have the folders when Outlook has been set-up or will I lose them.

Help Please...I really need to save them

You will lose them if you don't back them up in some way - they are on your hard drive, not in cyber space or on your web server.

You can copy the folders and addressbook and save to CD,USB key etc

Call me stupid,but can you explain to me how.I have tried every way,which way.

Of,course I could spend hours saving each individual message from EVERY folder,but it would take me days !!So how do I save each folder as a whole.
