Outlook users: do you know where are your emails store? If you want to format your hard disk do you know how to backup your emails and other outlook items? All your emails, calendar, notes, tasks are stored in a single file called outlook.pst in your computer. It is mostly unnoticed and ignored as it is not in reach with your My Documents. It is better to have it in My Documents, as it is easier to backup and you will not miss it.
Locate your outlook.pst file by right clicking Outlook Today located in Outlook Shortcut and select Properties > Advanced. In the filename tab you will see the location. Close Outlook. Go to that place using Windows Explorer and move it to your My Documents. Give it an appropriate name like ?YourName2002.pst? .Start Outlook again. It will ask the location of the outlook.pst. Browse My Documents and select ?YourName2002.pst?. It will recreate the shortcuts and now you can use your PST file as usual.
These PST files gradually become large. It better to use one PST file per year for a home user. For a business person it will be per month, depending on how many emails hits your inbox. After a year or a month move the ?YourName2002.pst? to any folder and open Outlook. Again it will ask for the PST file. This time type ?YourName2003.pst? and click ?Create?. It will create a new PST file. Go to explorer and ?undo move? to regain your earlier PST file in the original place.
