Windows backup

I have Win7 Home Premium 64 bit and WLM.

If I backup onto an external hard drive and select 'Let Widows Choose' will
the backup include the data which is stored in my Personal Message Store? I
am aware of the latter's location and also what will be backed-up if I 'Let
Windows Choose', but with WLM not being part of Windows I have doubts about
whether my Personal Message Store will be included.

Yes it will store all your personal data including that - basically it
includes everything in the /User/ folder and subfolders.. It'll also
periodically create a full disk image as well.
