I cannot export or backup anything from my OE 6!
When I try to do the command (doen't matter what format I choose), this error message appears: "The export could not be performed. An error occured while initializing MAPI" I am running W2k. How can I solve this problem? Can I deactivate the MAPI service and get it to work, or...? Need your help here guys, who know a bit more! Dan |

Hi Dan,
The export of messages only works to transfer data to Outlook or Exchange installed on the same PC. OLEXP: How to Back Up and Recover Outlook Express Data OLEXP: How to Back Up and Recover Outlook Express Data http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;270670 More information and options Get OETool (www.oehelp.com/OETool/) and OEQB (www.oehelp.com/OEBackup/) and put them in the same directory. Then there is a button in OETool that will run OEQB and backup to 3 levels of redundancy just with a click of the button. Both are free.

![]() Hello Tim So you mean that my problem is because I have not installed Exchange on my computer? Does that cause the mapi error? I will look at the sites and programs you suggest. Thanks!

Yes, Microsoft meant the export (of messages) to provide an easy transition
to Outlook or Exchange. It can be a source of befuddlement when users expect a different result. The help file mentions Outlook and Exchange, but could have been explicit. Exporting messages without Outlook or Exchange installed causes the error. Hope all goes well. -- Tim K. aka Kuay Tim MS-MVP - Outlook Express Lynnwood, WA * Dan Backlund wrote in message ...
