Outlook 2000 - where are the emails stored.

[Tavish Muldoon]

Hello,

I am working on a friend's comptuer with Outlook Express. They have
all their emails in folders - I think they are on the HD, but they are
not stored in a .pst file. Where else could they be stored?

I do no think they are stored on the server because there are too many
emails with huge files. Where are these files?

I want to archive them to a CD. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Tmuld.

Thank you very much!

And I made an error - it is only Outlook 2000 I am concerned about,
not Outlook Express.

My apologies.

Right Click on outlook Today, choose Properties for Outlook Today and click
on "Advanced". On the general tab, the box named "File" will show you the
location of the pst file.
