how to backup data from mail and more

[paradiso]

Older G4 desktop is getting old and tricky to start up so I figure it is a good idea to back up everything quickly in case it bites the dust.
Want to back up (and update that back up regularly) all data, including my email messages and mail organisation.

Any ideas?

Time Machine? If you don't have it you can use Carbon Copy Cloner which is great backup app. Or just manually drag your mail folder from /User/Library/Mail
