Yes, I put up my hand for deserving funny looks for using Outlook.
DH gave me Mozilla Thunderbird, but there was some feature in Outlook I used a
lot (forget what just now) that Mozilla didn't have, so I switched back.
We back up the whole computer every week to a LaCie or Lacey device; apart from
that I don't back them up anywhere else. The dialogue box keeps popping up
offering to compact my messages, even when they have just been compacted,
repeatedly throughout the day. I deleted thousands of old emails recently, but
it still wants to compact everything.
In theory I disapprove of Outlook. In practice, well ... ...

I am surprised that you use outlook. Always thought it was one
of the stupid ones.
Tell me what happens when you back up your messages.
