Outlook Express stores email messages in DBX files which are located in the
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{Identity-GUID}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\
- Refer to the system tips for a
description of %USERPROFILE% thing; you will also need to adjust
Windows Explorer settings to show hidden objects - the Local
Settings folder is hidden from view with the default system
settings.
- {Identity-GUID} - Globally Unique Identifier (GUID)
associated with the specific user identity, something like {1234567890-12AB-CD34-EF12-123456789ABC}.
Outlook Express stores message folders in separate .dbx files,
one folder per file. The corresponding files are named
according to their respective Outlook Express folder names. To create a
backup copy of your email, you need to copy all the DBX files to a safe
location.
