Windows Mail storage location

mp100 · Jul 24, 2008

Hi all,

Following on from my first post (about restoring contacts), I also need to know where the Vista Mail client stores email messages on the hard disc? Anyone got any idea - Technet was not forthcoming with the info.

Thanks

Hi Mp100,

If you just wanted to be able to backup and restore messages, then this tutorial will show you a much safer method of doing it.

Hope this helps,
