Re: Office 365
Cassie and Thys are the IT boffs, maybe they can assist. I'm not familiar with neither Win 7 nor Live Mail, but I assume that there is a back-up facility. 
I would back them up or make a copy regardless.

Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Normally outlook will create a .pst that sit locally on your hard drive but with 365 its backed up onto Microsoft could service

Re: Office 365
I've steered away from Office 365 so my knowledge is very limited. If you use something like outlook to retrieve your mail from the cloud exchange server, you probably have a outlook.ost file and not outlook.pst.
All the files and emails are kept on the server with an offline version available from the .ost file.
