Title: Burning folders in Outlook to CD
Post by: willie146usa on October 30, 2006, 08:14:08 AM

Can anyone tell me how to back up saved email messages to a CD?  I have folders for past months i.e. September 2006 and September 2006 Sent, etc.,  and I want to save these folders to CD due to sensitive information that needs to be backed up for future reference. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

File, Import and Export, Export to a file, select the type of file (I suggest .pst), click Next, select the folder(s) and decide whether to check the box for "Include subfolders", and proceed. On the next screen, you can save to the default location or click on the Browse button and change to location.  You might try saving directly to CD and see whether Windows will let you do that.  If not, then save to your hard drive and then burn to CD as a separate action.
