you could allways try this there is a folder about here......

C:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\RANDOM NUMBERS\Microsoft\Outlook Express


Back up the contents of that folder, then overwrite again after the format.

just to let you know, i also use the folder method and it works great. Saves you having to load more software to do it.
