• Typically you do not have to archive your emails, because there is a backup system. Saving disk space (on the mail account) is also 'normally' not necessary.
• If you leave the institute and you loose your IMATH and also the UZH email address, it might me necessary to make a copy of your mails.

Via Thunderbird

• Quick and easly solution.
  • Drawback: not so stable if you have thousands of emails or a huge amount of folders.

• Setup any email client on your private computer. F.e. 'Thunderbird' (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/) or Apple Mail.

• Configure your IMATH Account.

• Copy all mails (mark all mails and choose copy) to
  • a local email folder, or
  • to a free email service like gmail, gmx, ... (configure that as an additional account in the email client).
  • You have to do this for every folder.
