GMAIL Backup options - GoFuckYourself.com

rock-reed · 10-20-2006, 10:24 AM

I see alot of Webmasters and Sites now using GMAIL as their main email system.

This led me to think this would be a great place to ask this question as I am sure most of you have thought about it and maybe have taken action.

How are you guys backing up your GMAIL mail to your local hard-drive?

You can setup Outlook or Outlook express to get the email and leave a copy on the local server and this works fine....unless you have alot of GMAIL accounts like we do.

How are you backing up many GMAIL accounts to your local hard-drive?

Thank you and Great weekend to all...

I have my gmail forwarded to my outlook express and it is saved there - plus I can also reply and send mail through outlook using gmail as well. Great system and works in case I need to ever change my ISP

I have it setup with POP so everything is backed up locally.

why back it up? i doubt google will ever have a problem where you will lose all your emails, like you would with your own personal computer

and yes, i use gmail for all my emails, i have certian forwards for my domain that goto my gmail and then i have gmail setup to check to see what that email was forwareded from and then label it approperietly

you could back up to email client (outlook, thunderbird) backup the profile and up it to your remote server , do it once a week or so

I use multiple Gmail accounts for different purposes, but I've never even thought about backing up their content.

It's a lot more likely that I have a problem and lose all data than Google misplacing or losing a single email.
