Hi Anphrax,

Here's a useful Outlook back-up tool from Microsoft.

[url]http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8b081f3a-b7d0-4b16-b8af-5a6322f4fd01&DisplayLang=en[/url]

It works with Outlook 2000 upwards and basically creates a copy of the PST file. Integrates into the program menu options, and can be run manually or will prompt you weekly to run a backup.

Handy for anyone using Outlook as their email client.
