Exporting Calendar, Contacts and Mail Folders to a .pst File

You can copy messages and other items into a new or existing set of personal (.pst) folders. This option lets you select which items you want to export and which you want to exclude. You can use this method whether your mail is stored in a hosted Exchange server mailbox or in a set of personal folders.

To create a .pst file of your Mailbox and all of its folders:

1. Go to File > Import and Export > Export to a File.
2. Click Next.
3. Select Personal Folder File (.pst); click Next.
4. Highlight "Mailbox-Your Name". If you want to backup a selected subfolder, such as your Calendar, highlight only the Calendar folder.
5. Check "Include Subfolders". Do not check "Include Subfolders" if there are no subfolders required for the backup.
6. Click Next.
7. In the "Save Exported File as:" field use the Browse button to select the location and file name of this .pst file
8. Select "Replace Duplicates with Items Exported".
9. Click Finish.
