I think it stores it on the internet, have your mom turn the internet back on, and try it.

File -> Import and Export
Then choose Export to a file, and then to a personal folder file (*.pst).
Then choose your inbox. Save it somewhere, then when you want, import it back.
<Img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> Well, that didn’t work. I got all kinds of crazy error messages, so I just saved the emails as seperate .eml files. Knowing where they’re normally are stores would help tough, since OE only wants to import from other programs.
Sorry, I was thinking about MO rather than OE. I use MO since it has a lot more functions, in such a way it’s pratically my secretary. OE is really different in some parts and this is one of them.
It should go File -> export -> messages. The rest explains itself.
If you try importing messages it will show you where it stores them. It goes like this:
C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities{there should be a serial number here}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\
