Hi all,
I am running Jaws 8 on an XP Home machine and using Outlook Express 6 as my
e-mail client, although I do have Outlook installed.
recently I noticed that one of my e-mail folders had over 900 messages in
it.
I wish to take a percentage of these messages from that folder and back them
onto CD.
I tried to do this by copying the messages I wanted to back up into another
folder in Outlook Express and them exporting them in to Microsoft Outlook.
Once in Outlook I then backed that folder up to a windows file, I can not
remember if it was comma separated or tab delimited, but the resulting file
was a .txt file.
I then saved this to another part of my laptop PC and transferred it from
there to a CD.
The problem is that I do not seem to be able to access the saved e-mails on
the CD now. and even if I were to find them on my PC and make certain that
they were put back on the CD, how could I be certain of being able to access
them and open them in Outlook Express if needed?
Thank you in advance for any answers to this problem that anyone can give.
