Can't access Outlook / backup my e-mails

[Lomeye]

When I attempt to access "Outlook", I get a message saying
"Exchange server unavailable". I select "work offline"
and I get the message .."Programme: c:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\
OFFICE10\OUTLOOK.EXE. The operation has requested the
runtime to terminate it in an unusual way".

I am trying to back-up my e-mails from Outlook Express.
I have been told to export them to outlook, but I cannot
access my Outlook.

Help!
Please reply to if you can be of any
assistance

Is MS Outlook installed? Do you have an Exchange Server to which you may
connect?

Outlook Express (OE) File>Export can only be used to export messages to
Outlook or Exchange. To backup your OE data, see...
