I am just recovering from a crash an am reinstalling everything. Getting the addresses. in/out boxes etc and account settings is nearly impossible.
I use Carbonite for online backup. I wold like to be able to copy ALL of the folders concerned with Outlook Express 6 and allow Carbonite back them up. That way I would have access to the backed up OE 6.
What are the folders and I'll write a scrip to copy them daily.

All you need is the dbx files under your profile. C:\Documents and Settings\UserID\LocalSettings\Application Data\Identities\Identitynumber\Microsoft\Outlook Express is the location. Unless you changed the location of the profile of course.
