Archiving with eM Client

The emphasis on internet communication is ever-growing and even though email might be one of the oldest means, it is not going away anytime soon.
However, with increased volumes of data being transferred between users, one needs to either have decent storage or use some form of archiving. Email archiving solutions is a topic of this article, and we will specifically cover how you can archive your data with eM Client.


What is archiving?

The idea of archiving is either to save resources on the server side or to simply tidy up your email account and save emails that might no longer be relevant, but can be theoretically useful sometime in the future.

eM Client can serve very well as an email archiving software. It offers 2 ways of archiving.

  1. Server-side Archive that is available for all IMAP and Exchange email accounts. This function can simply be used by clicking on the archive button that is located on top of the screen or by right-clicking on selected message/ messages and selecting Move to Archive. The messages will be moved to a special folder called Archive and will no longer be displayed if you start a search query.
  2. The second option is to archive your data to a local folder. This way your data is moved to a local folder structure in eM Client. These are special folders that are still accessible in the program, but your data are no longer available on webmail. This might be especially useful, when you need to save some room on the server, but still want the emails to be quickly accessible. You can configure this in Menu > Settings > Mail > Automatic Archiving and the archiving then starts automatically at selected time intervals.
