I agree, I did back up Outlook fully. It's just I can't resist doing the CSV
thing in addition. There's something reassuring about being able to see and
read those files :-)

- I backed up Outlook: copied all data files to backup folder, exported
(belt-and-braces) Contacts and Calendar to CSV files.

Exporting to CSV does not make for a faithful backup. That's not how to
backup Outlook. However, it's nice to hear it's working again.
