Backing up Emails

[SpeedFreak03]

I have a whole bunch of saved emails in Outlook that I would like to back up (because I need to transfer them to another computer). In the past I have used the Import/Export feature, and used Comma Seperated Values (Windows) as the format. This works good, except it leaves out the date (of when it was sent/recieved). Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Josh

Export as .pst files. It will keep all the detail that way.

Yep. It works for Contacts, calendar stuff, etc. Very nice.

Is there a difference between exporting the .pst file from within Outlook as opposed to just copying the .pst file somewhere and importing it later?

Thanks alot! It worked great, and saved all data. BTW I have Outlook XP (2002). Thanks again, Josh!
