Windows XP Backup - Email address book

On my XP, I use other software for main backups but for quick small backups
of personal settings such as Documents and web Favourites, I use XP's own
backup. Can anyone please tell me where in the backup setup I can find my
email address book and current email folders? At present I export the address
book to my desktop which I can then see in the backup setup page but surely
there is a box somewhere to tick. I can't find it.

Shall we guess what e-mail program you're using?

If it's Outlook Express:

Backup and Restore Outlook Express

This has nothing to do with XP, the answer depends entirely on which email
client your using, and as we have no idea we can't give you an answer.

But since XP does come with an e-mail client, and only one, why not make a
suggestion based on that, as LG did eight hours earlier?

Hello Everyone. Thanks for the replies. Sorry for the delay coming back only
as usual I didn't get email notification and sorry for the lack of
information. I am using Outlook Express. Thanks Leonard, I'll take look at
your link but surely there is an option in XP's backup facility boxes to
tick? Brian.

Why waste the time if the OP doesn't see fit to provide any useful
information, rather than catering to them I'd rather get the required info
to provide a useful reply, I try not to reply based on assumptions, your
free to do so if you like.

Hello David. Thanks for that. I was trying to use XP Backup to backup
Documents, Favourites as well as Email Address Book. I just thought the
information might be in XP's own backup but with my inexperience, didn't know
where to find it.

It wouldn't be an assumption, though, would it? More of an "if". No need,
anyway - LG did, and it paid off.
