In Entourage, you can create archives of message store data by using the drag-and-drop method. This feature provides a way to back up message folders in Entourage.
Follow these steps to create an MBOX backup of a message folder:
1. Resize the Entourage program window so that you can see your Apple Macintosh desktop
2. Click the folder that you want to archive in the Entourage Folder List pane. If you do not see the Folder List pane, click Folder List on the View menu.
3. Drag the folder to your desktop. A file is created that has the same name as the folder from which it was created.
Note For each folder that you want to create a MBOX file, you must create it in a separate operation. In addition, subfolders are not included in the MBOX file creation when the procedure is performed for a parent folder.
