Hi,

I want to be able to change the location that outlook express saves my messages to, I searched high and low for it but I couldn't find it, anybody know where I can do this?

I want to be able to store my data onto my 2nd hard drive (for more protection when having to reinstall windows etc)

Regards
TJ

This is one way:
1. Open OE and go to Tools>Optins>Maintenance. Click on the "Store Folder" button to see where your messages are stored. Close OE6.
2. Go to Windows Explorer and rename that folder (e.g. Outlook Express-Old)
3. Reopen Outlook Express. Go to Tools>Optins>Maintenance again and click on "Store Folder". Then change the location where you want your messages to be stored.
4. Go to File>Import>Messages and locate the Outlook Express-Old folder to import your messages.
5. Restart Outlook Express. It should work.
