Copy from C:\users\your username\appdata\local\microsoft\windows mail\local
folders\*.* to where ever you want the backup. At least that is where I
found the email on my computer.

Hi,

Tools/Options/Advanced tab, click on maintenance. Now click on 'store
folder' and move it to the location of choice.

Browse to your selected drive and click next, then select the mai

If you like to save emails, or have them available on any computer, you
should look into using webmail, or IMAP, instead of POP3.

I use FastMail, (as well as a couple of webmail email services, Google Mail
and Hotmail), which can be accessed through web, IMAP and POP3. They have
quite a few domains to choose from, and you can use your own as well. It
doesn't even cost anything to use your own domain (I can supply info on that
on request).
