&#160;

I archived my Livemail today to 1 TB drive.

Here's how: it's EZ.

&#160;

<b>Windows Live Mail</b> stores the e-mail database by default in the folder <b>C:\Documents and Settings <i>loginname= Bob&#160;</i></b>

<b>\Local Settings Application Data\&#160;</b>

<b>Microsoft \Windows Live Mail</b> (XP) or &#60;&#60; <b>C:\Users<i>loginname</i>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail</b> (Vista).&#62;&#62;

&#160;

Note: &#160;different location from Email&#160;in Outlook Express.

&#160;

<b>loginname is Bob</b>; &#160;&#160;note folders have much better names now than under OE; they are

Pacbell &#160;(de ...) &#160;Pacbell (ex ...) &#160;and Pacbell (sy ... )

just copy those to a folder on the external HD.</p>
