Solved Help! Where is my inbox content stored re. back up

[ritchieleemorri]

Hello,

I'm going crazy trying to work this out and hoping someone can help me. I am currently backing up my PC (Windows Vista Basic) but it is only saving the folders and not the actual content within the folders.

The problem is I cannot find where my inbox content would be located in order to back it up. Previously, I would be looking for .pst files in XP but this isn't the case with Vista.

Can someone please help me locate this.

Thank you
Ritchie
