Webmail and IMAP
Back Up an Account That Lives on a Server
Thirteen providers reached over IMAP, plus a generic route for anything else that speaks it.
IMAP Backup
The generic route. Point it at any server that speaks IMAP and pull the lot.
Gmail Backup
Useful when a Workspace seat is closing and Takeout feels like overkill.
Outlook.com Backup
For personal Outlook.com and Hotmail accounts rather than a work tenant.
Yahoo Mail Backup
Worth doing before an account inactivity policy catches up with you.
iCloud Mail Backup
Get Apple mail off the platform without an app-specific export step.
Zoho Mail Backup
Common when a small business moves off Zoho onto something else.
Fastmail Backup
A clean IMAP source, so the archive comes down with folders as they are.
AOL Mail Backup
Decades of mail on accounts nobody wants to log into twice.
GMX Mail Backup
A free provider worth archiving before storage limits force a clear-out.
Yandex Mail Backup
Handy when access to the account itself may become unreliable.
Mail.ru Backup
Same reasoning as Yandex, and the same IMAP route in.
Rediffmail Backup
An older provider where holding your own copy is the safer bet.
cPanel Roundcube Backup
Hosting webmail that vanishes the moment the plan lapses.
Desktop Clients
Back Up Mail That Already Sits on the Machine
Eight desktop clients whose mail lives in a local store rather than on a server.
Thunderbird Backup
Profiles hide in odd places on disk. This finds them and packages them up.
Apple Mail Backup
Mailboxes come out whole rather than as thousands of loose message files.
eM Client Backup
Pull the store out before a licence change or a machine rebuild.
Mailbird Backup
Get mail out of the app so it is not tied to one Windows install.
Postbox Backup
Now discontinued, which makes an archive urgent rather than optional.
Evolution Backup
GNOME's client, backed up without editing the config directory by hand.
KMail Backup
The KDE mail store, exported into something you can open anywhere.
Claws Mail Backup
Lightweight client, one file per message. Bundled here into one archive.
