Genie-soft FREE Outlook Express Backup

I'd like to install a good backup program for OE. I read a review in some computer magazine (probably SmartComputing) that had good things to say about Genie-soft FREE Outlook Express Backup 6.5.

Have any Wilders members used it and care to share their opinions or ?

Any other OE backup programs to recommend?

Thanks!

 

For outlook axpress and outlook I recommend Amic Email Backup.
Free with nice interface , very easy to use and it works great.

I am using MailStore Home (free):

MailStore Home archives email from:

* Microsoft Outlook 2000, XP, 2003 and 2007
* Microsoft Outlook Express and Windows Mail
* Microsoft Exchange Server Mailboxes
* Mozilla Thunderbird and SeaMonkey
* POP3 and IMAP (including webmail services such as Gmail and Yahoo)
* .eml and other files

Thanks for your recommendations. I will naturally check them out before deciding. Have you ever had any trouble with the programs you mentioned?

 

Page, unless all that you do is send and receive email, why waste you time with a limited program that just backs-up email? At the very least, I would get a program that also backs-up your favorites and settings of IE (or whatever browser you use) and your My Documents folder (in addition to Emai)!

 

I'm using Express Assist for many years:

It's not free : 39,95 USD

I like it a lot; support is very good.

It does what Aaron Here described in above posting.

PS: AJSystems has several other programs.

 

Hi Aaron, I don't view what I am looking for as a limited program, but rather a specialized program. I want it to do a specific thing, not a lot of things. For instance, I regularly use Acronis TrueImage for full system backups, from which I can restore individual folders if need be. But I want a program that automatically backs up Outlook Express more frequently than I create TrueImage back ups.

In addition, while restoring data through Genie Outlook Express Backup, it enables a user to preview to-be-restored data before restoring it. I also see that I can backup/restore all of my email messages, or just selected folders.

So I suppose it's all in how one looks at it. You say limited, I say specialized.

 

Hi FanJ, I'm really looking for FREE.

 

I also use Acronis TI for full backup but I need the ability to take all the e-mail from a Windows XP Puter, Outlook Express with multiple Identities and write it to a DVD. Then I need the same program to import that data from the DVD to another Puter running Windows Vista sp1 32 bit and put it into Thunderbird. I don't think such an animal exists.
Mailstore seems to be full of bugs or I am expecting
to much from it.
