Window Mail

How can I backup my Window Mails and upgrade to Window 7 and use them in Win
7?

Thanks,
Gary

If all else fails,
Get out that old pencil and paper,
copy all the addresses and install them into Windows 7

Upgrade to Windows Live Mail before you upgrade to Windows 7.
http://download.live.com/wlmail
It will import all your Windows Mail data.
Then back up the Windows Live Mail data using this free third party utility:

http://www.staticbackup.com/windows-live-mail-backup/
http://www.staticbackup.com/products.htm#swmbf

After Windows 7 is installed, install Windows Live Mail.
Then run the backup utility to restore all your WLM data.

It does not transfer contacts, but you can easily copy and paste
the folder C:\Users\username\Contacts from Vista to Windows 7,
then do a manual import of contacts.

Windows Mail was not designed to run in Windows 7.
Upgrade to Windows Live Mail before you upgrade to Windows 7.
