What is eM Client Email Backup?
Create backups of the IMAP accounts you use in eM Client so that your archives remain usable outside eM Client itself.
This dedicated page focuses on eM Client Email Backup, built on the same secure email backup engine used across OnlinePCTools. Instead of relying solely on your provider's interface, you can connect using IMAP, choose exactly which folders to include, and download a portable archive that lives on your own storage — external drive, NAS, encrypted container, or cloud‑synced folder.
The process is straightforward: sign in with the same mailbox you use in eM Client, select folders like Inbox, Sent, Archive, or custom labels, apply an optional date range, and then export in the format that best matches your next step. Whether you are migrating to another client, preparing for an audit, or simply keeping a personal copy, you stay in control of where your messages live.
Because the export uses open formats such as PST, MBOX, EML, and PDF, you are never locked into a single vendor. You can browse the same backup in different applications, hand it over to colleagues or legal teams, and keep it for years even if you later close or change your eM Client account.
Best export formats for this tool
PST is convenient when collaborating with Outlook users, while MBOX and EML keep you flexible across platforms.
All formats preserve key headers such as sender, recipient, subject, and date, and most keep attachments intact so nothing important is lost.
Typical use cases
- Archiving a mailbox before switching providers or domains.
- Keeping an offline copy of critical conversations for legal or compliance reasons.
- Creating periodic backups to protect against accidental deletion or account issues.
