Outlook Express offers the possibility to make rules for blocking senders for the incoming e-mail (Message, Block Sender). These rules are saved in the registry on the following location:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{....}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0\Block Senders\Mail\Criteria
By exporting this key to a REG-file within the registry editor (File, Export), you are able to backup your blocking rules. Importing these blocking rules is easy: double click on the created REG-file.
It's also possible to export the created rules (Message, Create Rules From Message) by exporting the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{....}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0\Rules
These procedures are not necessary within Outlook, the rules are stored in the PST-file.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{....}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0\Block Senders\Mail\Criteria
