Hi there, i'm using netscape 4.7 to read and store my email. Now i need to format my pc and reload everything. So, i need to backup my mail that store in Netscape. Can some one let me know which folder or type of file i need to copy. And also let me know how can i transfer this all emails back to netscape when i finish reload the system.
thank you for helping

Regards,
Henry
 
The simplest way to do this is to backup the whole Netscape folder, then re-install and once Netscpe is installed, overwrite with the backed up folder, this will retain address book and current emails.

It is possible to do an more precise backup but takes more time and sometimes can be problemmatic.
