Outlook Express question

I need to remove and re-install Internet Explorer. Will I lose all the emails in my outlook express?
If yes, whats the best to back them up so I can restore them when I re-install IE6?

If you follow the instructions for uninstalling and reinstalling IE6 only, OE won't be touched. Even if you do blow away OE, it shouldn't touch your identity folders.

you can save your folders in outlook, and then import them back if you want.
i don't know if you can do this in outlook express but if you can that would be a good backup in case you do lose files.
