Win Mail Backup (WMB) is a descendant of "Express Assist" - the original and the premier "Backup and Restore" utility for Windows Live Mail (WLM) or Windows Mail (WM). WMB has features not found in any other Windows Mail / Windows Live Mail backup utility including: Search for and view messages in the backup without restoring; Find and view messages in the backup not currently in WLM or WM; Restore lost messages without losing the current mail folders; Retrieve messages as text or EML (mail) files; Backup and restore IE favorites, cookies and offLine web folders in addition to WLM or WM data; backup and restore WLM/WM message rules, mail accounts, and critical registry settings. WMB will assist with the transfer of mail from WM or WLM from one machine to another. WLM can also transfer WLM data from XP to Vista machines (and vice/versa).
