  • Log into Webmail and select the email you would like to archive
  • Then click on More and select Download (.eml)
  • The email will then be downloaded to a file on your device

If you want to archive more than 100 messages at a time (This option is only available for paid accounts)

(This method is best if you want to archive more than 100 messages at a time, and is generally recommend as a much more convenient way of downloading emails to your computer.)

Set up a mail client (such as Outlook, Thunderbird, or Mac Mail) to connect with your account via IMAP. If you are not sure how to do this, this article will help you.

Once you have your email account set up, just drag and drop the chosen messages to a local folders file on your computer. At this point you will want to make sure your computer is backed up, as those files will no longer be on our servers.
