Deleting the Hotmail Account from Shane's Identity (Tools>Accounts>Mail)
would not affect the Identity's message store at all so there's no reason to
backup email messages.
An HTTP account in OE by default only displays messages on the HTTP server.
If the messages aren't deleted at user's online Hotmail page, they will
"reappear" in OE when the Hotmail account is added again.
