Want to archive your email?
The problem with email isn’t just spam these days. No, one of the most awkward problems is just how much email many of us want to keep. For example, I filter all my emails from siblings into a special folder, which keeps them neat. That’s great, but as they’ve grown over time they’re cluttering up my email application and making it slower. I don’t want to get rid of them, so what can I do?

If you use Mozilla Thunderbird, you’ll already know it’s free and it’s great. But if you have a lot of accounts in it and lots of incoming email, it does slow down. To use it efficiently you need to keep the number of emails in it down to a sensible level. I’ve personally had tens of thousands of emails in my copy before now.
I kept that many emails because I wanted to be able to access information whenever I needed to. That’s great, but in reality most of us only need to do it once or twice a month . For me, I was running a sub-optimal system and my email application was slow Using an email backup system now gives me the best of both worlds. I can quickly search for an old email whenever I need one, but my normal email system runs fast and lean, which saves me time every day.
