are you using outlook express?

ETA

Sorry missed the OE

Go into OEs tools, then options, them maintenance then look at the stored folder.
If you go there and copy all on the files to a safe place it will backup everything.

Change your search option to include system and hidden files.
The files your are looking for are in your provile directory that is hidden.

For non-geeks, here some hints... you have to change the settings of your Windows Explorer first, to show you hidden files. Click on "Tools" in the drop-down menu, then "Folder Options", "View", "Show hidden files and folders."

Then you type in "C:" in the address bar of Windows Explorer (or copy-and paste the string C:Documents and Settings) and press enter. Browse your way through the directories above, i.e. the directory that has your login name, and then:

Application Data
Identities
GUID identifier, which looks like: {A2E93500-40A9-404E-8935-CDC5CD0E48AF}
Microsoft
Outlook Express

This is what I use and it's free. I don't set it to run automatically just to keep the number of things running at startup down. I backup to a 2nd HD too, after a couple of drive failures.
