Mail Archiver

Mail Archiver is an open-source solution that backs up your email history, regardless of your provider. The tool connects to your existing email accounts – such as Gmail, Outlook or iCloud – and creates its own copy of all messages, including attachments. In the web interface, you can search the archive using full-text search and export messages as required. Even if you delete emails from your provider’s system or close an account, your correspondence is preserved. With Managed Mail Archiver Hosting, you can run this archive without having to worry about servers, storage or software maintenance.

Who is Mail Archiver suitable for?

Mail Archiver is ideal for small businesses and the self-employed who wish to store business correspondence in a way that is both long-term and searchable – such as order confirmations, quotations or customer correspondence that must still be retrievable even years later. It is also beneficial for associations that wish to preserve board communications across terms of office, or private individuals who want to consolidate several email accounts accumulated over the years into a single location. The multi-user access feature in the Business Plan also allows controlled access to the archive to be granted to several people.
