I assume the OE 6 Win XP Home email messages are stored in the following
folder:

Docs & Settings | Owner | Local Settings | Application Data | Identities |
{Gibberish} | Microsoft | Outlook Express

This folder contains a set of files with extension dbx

So, if I want to preserve the email messages against the possibility of a
subsequent computer crash, I assume that this folder is sufficient.

Q1. Is my assumption correct?

Q2. I note that the Identities folder contains TWO subfolders:\\{Gibberish
1} | Microsoft | OE, and a similar but different {Gibberish 2} | Microsoft |
OE

Each OE folder appears to hold the same files. What's going on? Can
backing up one of the sets suffice?
