- Backup to remote FTP server - Outlook Express Backup 6.5 supports backup to remote FTP servers. This is a new invaluable feature that not only insures protection for data by storing it on remote locations but also allows users to access that data from different locations later on, which serves as a great tool for migrating and synchronizing e-mail data between distant machines.
- Easy and Normal backup layouts - Outlook Express Backup 6.5 gives its users the choice between two backup wizard layouts; the Easy 2-step layout, and the Normal 4-step layout, thus becoming more intuitive and catering for all users ranging from below average to advanced.
- 128 bit encryption - Emails can contain highly classified business data, or it can simply be personal material that you deem for eyes only, in either case Outlook Express Backup 6.5 now enables you to protect that data using the highly secure 128 bit encryption algorithm.
- Backup with or without compression - Backup with compression is useful and tidy, but backup without compression is fast and sometimes comes in handy. Outlook Express Backup 6.5 lets you choose between the two.
- Backup Summary window - Now, you can monitor the size of your data on the fly as you're selecting it.
- Backup Internet Explorer settings and cookies!
