With my last and bust PC I used a third party bit of software that was excellent but no good now I am on Vista. Is there any way of backling stuff up easily - not having to get individual dbx files and such. I hope there is or if not I am in total disbelief.
Or do I have to use another type of browser/email apllication which may have easy back up?

This is the version I have been using and is good. Had 20,000 emails stored which I can only access on other PC running XP. You would think an easy back up would be part of the email software that comes with Vista --- but NO unless I am missing it.

On the Microsoft website you will find a application called "Windows Easy Transfer" which allows you to transfer emails, settings etc between PCs using cable/usb/external hard drive. I used it when upgrading a laptop from XP to Vista.
