Guide Review - Whej Outlook Express Archiver 1.34 - Outlook Express Archiving Tool

Have you ever wished you could browser your old emails like a Web site? No? Then it's time to give Whej Outlook Express Archiver a try.

In an easy step by step process you can export your messages and attachments to HTML format and open them in any browser. That's a nice way to archive mail, and the many different color schemes make it even nicer. Unfortunately, such an HTML archive has problems, too: it's not easily searchable, you can't work with the messages, and importing such an archive to any email program is a pain (if not impossible).

Whej Outlook Express Archiver can also save the individual messages as .eml files to ensure their integrity and make re-importing them to Outlook Express possible, but it's still not a smooth ride.
