Default Where does OutlookExpress 6.0 saves all its user specific settings on W2K Pro?

I am using W2K+SP4.

For example, Outlook 2000 saves all my user specific setting and emails in:
C:\Documents and Settings\David\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
and
C:\Documents and Settings\David\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.

I Couldn't find any comparable place for Outlook Express.

Thanks,
David

From Outlook Express
Tools | Options | Maintenance tab
Press the Store Folders button and you will see the location on your
computer.

They are DBX files for the messages, WAB for Address Book and all settings
are stored in the Registry under HKKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WAB,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Accounts Manager

In various places in the Registry. Assuming that you are not asking about
its messages and contacts.
