Saving Email Messages on Various Storage Media
Email messages are very important files and need to be backed up regularly in order to avoid critical data loss. However, web mail users often encounter a problem of storage space shortage. Most accounts have a storage limit which will not let you receive more messages than is allowed by the server quota.
To clean up your account, you may consider deleting older messages from your mailbox. However, for many users, this is not an option as they don’t want to lose a single email. Thus they will have to copy their messages manually or use special software to do the mail backup.
While doing email backup you also need to choose the most suitable storage medium. You can select your local hard drive to keep the mail messages, but in this case you are still running the risk of losing them, because your hard drive can crash. Handy Backup offers a variety of most reliable and convenient storage methods such as storage on a CD, DVD, HD DVD, Blu-Ray, remote FTP server and online storage.
With Handy Backup you don’t necessarily have to save your messages on your local hard drive. A much better choice in terms of security would be saving your messages on any of the portable devices such as CD, DVD, HD DVD, Blu-Ray or a secure remote location such an FTP server or our online server which you can access via a web browser.
