Question backing up emails in outlook express
I'm just about to go and get a new pc today but I don't want to lose the emails that I already have in outlook express. Is there a way of saving these and importing them into outlook on the new pc?

Thanks

Install Mozilla thunderbird so so much simpler to backup your emails afterwards with a utility. Oh and a much better email client to boot
