Archiving Email

Emails can be archived from the mailboxes of email servers such as Microsoft Exchange as well as from the locally installed email clients of the users.

All archiving tasks can be performed manually or automatically according to a schedule.

Email Server

• Archiving Exchange mailboxes and public folders
  With MailStore, already existing Exchange mailboxes as well as public folders can be archived. You have the option to archive individual, multiple or all mailboxes in one step. Additional information about this topic is available in chapter Archiving Emails from Microsoft Exchange.
• Archiving server mailboxes
  In addition to Microsoft Exchange server mailboxes, the mailboxes of other email servers can be archived using IMAP or POP3 protocols. These include web-based mailboxes such as Google Mail or Web.de. Additional information about this topic is available in the chapter Archiving Server Mailboxes.
• Batch-archiving IMAP Mailboxes
• Archiving IMAP/POP3 Multidrop Mailboxes
  If you have a single multidrop mailbox for your domain on the ISP's mailserver or your current mailserver is able to deliver copies of all sent and received emails to another mailbox, MailStore is able to fetch all emails from such multidrop mailboxes and put them into the corresponding user's archive. Additional information about this topic is available in the chapter Archiving IMAP and POP3 Multidrop Mailboxes.
• Archiving emails directly upon sending and receiving
  MailStore can archive the entire incoming and outgoing email traffic automatically. If an Exchange server is available, this can be done through its Envelope Journaling function. In all other system environments, the MailStore proxy server can be used. The MailStore proxy server is available to all MailStore Server customers free of charge. Additional information about this topic is available in the chapter Archiving Incoming and Outgoing Emails Directly.

Email Clients

• Archiving Email from Outlook, Thunderbird and other e-mail clients
  As opposed to all other archiving features, it is imperative that the MailStore Client software is installed on the user computers when archiving emails from these users' email applications. Once the archiving task is set up, it can be started manually by the user or executed automatically according to a schedule any number of times. Additional information about this topic is available in the chapter Archiving Email from Outlook, Thunderbird and others.

Email Files

• Archiving Outlook PST files directly
  As administrator, you can archive Microsoft Outlook PST files, for other MailStore users. Additional information about these topics is available in chapter Archiving Outlook PST Files Directly.
• Archiving other files such as EML or MBOX
  As administrator, you can archive emails from .eml or .msg files for other MailStore users. Additional information about these topics is available in chapter Archiving Emails from External Systems (File Import).
