    Are you going straight to Hotmail or are they being downloaded to your PC in Outlook, Outlook Express or WLM or some other mail program?

    It is nigh on impossible to help you if you do not respond to questions asked - we do not have crystal balls :) So, please respond to MrBill's question ....

    Hotmail doesn't have the ability to backup files to your local drive... Except of course - forwarding the emails to another account on your computer.

    From all the Googling I have done, I have come to the same conclusion.
