How do I set up an e-mail archive?
Things to know before you start:
Web-based archive – You can access these emails through the email web page (Google or Yahoo!) from anywhere. These emails are stored on their servers. The storage capacity is limited to the email service provider you choose to use.
Local email archive – Emails stored in a local archive can NOT be access from anywhere but on your computer. Provided you set up the archive location in your T-storage, this archive will remain secure and regular backups. The size limit of this file is 50GB, however your T-storage quota is 25GB. Saving this archive to your computer’s hard drive is not recommended as it is not backed up and there is the chance it could be lost when you move to a new computer in the future.
You will need to decide which of these two options you feel are best for your email archive.
