Mac Forum / Applications / Entourage / July 2006Archiving in Entourage as in Outlook
I have an important question to ask. Does anyone know how to archive effectively emails in Entourage as it is done in MS Outlook? I know there are several applications that claim to archive (I¹ve purchased them all) but they do not archive Entourage. They end up archiving Mail.app and that doesn¹t help me with my work email account (which is what I use Entourage for). In Entourage 2004, you can use File>Export to create an archive, based on type, category or project association. It is not as flexible as Outlook's PST files, but you should be able to easily export and import data this way. To find out more about this feature, have a look at Entourage's help function.

There are several apps that archive Entourage: Emessage Archiver Mail Archiver Entourage E-mail archive The latter two can be found on VersionTracker.com; I¹m not familiar with them. The first can be found here: http://homepage.mac.com/thinkagain/Mac/eMA/ EMA is a one-man show. I used it for years before I developed my own FileMaker solution (which I hope to make available as shareware soon, but it will require FileMaker 7 or 8; I don¹t own the developer version that can produce standalone FMP apps. Don¹t be scared by the slow rate of development on EMA¹s beta; the earlier version works fine. Two other brute force methods of archiving: 1. Drag mail folders to the desktop, where they get written as mailbox files. 2. Run the Database Utility to do a compress and backup, which backs up your entire database. Then, purge out older messages from the active database (you can always switch identities to the backup copy to retrieve older messages). |
