Default Exporting mail and backing up- Help!

Having grappled with the system of compacting folders and storing them and
making numerous errors landing up with different stores I am beginning to
understand what I am now doing but I still have some queries.
When trying to delete these extra stores I eventually found that all my data
on the inbox, sent items etc were blank so I had to restore all the deleted
items which still leaves me with duplicate files
When I compact folders every month are they added to the existing folders or
do they replace folders already there?
Backing up the store to an external disk I noticed that after I transferred
folders there were a large number of copy folders listed. Is this as a
precaution or are they part of the backup?
