CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This Outlook Express backup utility performs fairly well, but it's missing some standard features found in similar applications.
As its title suggests, Auto Outlook Express Backup backs up and restores your Outlook Express messages, address book, account, signatures, blocked senders, rules, stationery, and settings. It even handles Internet Explorer bookmarks. Its clear-cut interface can schedule backup jobs and facilitate quick backup and restoration of files. You can even password-protect and encrypt backup files using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), though additional encryption algorithms and compression tools would have set this application apart from the rest.
It did a good job of backing up and restoring data, but we weren't able to restore the account or the address book during testing. You can keep a number of backup files, but you'll only be able to run backup jobs on a daily basis. (Note: Outlook Express has to be closed during the process.)
Average users of Outlook Express may benefit from what this application has to offer, but power users will probably want a backup tool with more features.
Publisher's description
From EmailAdept :Outlook Express is extremely sensitive to system faults. Even the most innocent incident can cause failure at the next start or DBX file corruption. Automated backup procedure guarantees that your e-mail service is always up and working. Auto Outlook Express Backup will not only protect your message folders but your service and account settings, address book, stationery and signatures as well. It will secure your mailbox migration against any loss or delay. Version 2 has unlimited backup file size (it can exceed 4Gb and is limited only by the amount of free space on the hard drive). Strong encryption (AES algorithm).
What's new in this version:
The size of a backup file can exceed 4Gb and in practice is limited only by the amount of free space on your hard drive. This feature is very important as users often use e-mail to exchange files and the size of OE folders rapidly increases. Many competitive programs do not have such a feature.; Strong encryption (AES algorithm).
