Archive old emails without touching the old account
Not every old mailbox needs to stay active. But you often still want to keep important emails. With mailriva's archiving feature, you transfer emails to a separate archive destination — locally and in a controlled manner.
When archiving makes sense
- You barely use the old account anymore
- You want to clean up but not lose anything
- You want to preserve important legacy emails
- You want to secure emails before canceling or deactivating an account
What makes archiving different from backup
Backup
A safety copy for emergencies — so you can restore your emails if something goes wrong.
Archiving
Long-term preservation of old email collections — ideal for accounts that are no longer actively used.
Your advantages with mailriva
mailriva archives your emails locally on your computer. Your passwords do not need to be entered into a website. The source mailbox remains unchanged — only copies are made, nothing is deleted or moved.
All major IMAP providers are supported: GMX, WEB.DE, Gmail, Outlook.com, T-Online, Yahoo, iCloud, IONOS, and many more.
