why not just back it up manually?
first if you are logging into windows mail it saves all your contacts on
msn.com (hotmail or livemail)
If you do not all you need to do is click on File/Export and export the
messages and account information to a folder on your HD
Also if you go to Contacts and also click on File/Export you can backup
your contacts in a CSV file which will backup all your contacts.
I do this once a month then I back it up to my external hd with the rest of
my documents
