what source code files to backup for Windows app

I want to make backups of a project and email it to myself via email.
Even though I have unlimited email storage I don't want to waste any
more space than I have to. And I also want to know what files I
absolutely need and what files I should keep just to make things
easier.

Right now I have a simple program that has a form with code (form1.vb)
and a class file (*.vb).

If there is a app that does this for me that would work as well. I
don't have any type of source code control and I don't think I want to
add that type of software.

Right now my folder is 6MB which has release and debug folders each
with the same DLL which adds 2MB there.

thanks for any help.

You can download SourceGear Vault, the one user version is totally free.
SourceGear vault is a true source control system and is very easy to use.
