How Do You Store and Reconcile Email Archives?

Posted by timothy on from the translate-them-to-quipu dept.

heyitsjustme wants to know how you deal with old email. "I delete most of what I get but keep the stuff from friends and relations as an archive. Unfortunately I have these email archives from the late 80's through today in the form of macintosh, linux and windows mailboxes including AOL 1.0 mailboxes. What does everyone use to archive email across multiple platforms and non-standard mailbox formats? Is there an easy solution out there? Does anyone archive IM?"

    Yeah, right.

    Old email is what's been used against them in court.

    If you get tired of Gmail's 1G limit, go to HRiders.com: 1T limit with a 500M attachment limit.
