Kudos to the team of developers, project managers, designers and testers that worked relentlessly for over a year to bring this product to fruition. A team of professionals across three continent and time zones with common goal to produce a new product category for the Email Hosting market.

As pioneers in the IMAP Email Hosting, we realized that one of the obstacles in convincing customers to move from POP3 to IMAP was the customers confidence in the reliability and availability of the provider email backup system. The market needs an independent IMAP Backup service that gives customers the control over their email data regardless of their primary Email Server condition.

Since we launched our premium Email Archiving for Compliance in 2004, we have seen that there is a market segment that is not served and require email backup and archiving for disaster recovery and legal discovery.
The IMAP Backup and Archiving service for non-compliance is an excellent solution for companies that need the extra protection without the exuberant costs of Email Archiving for Compliance.

These were the driven forces behind vision of a new product category of IMAP Email Backup and Archiving.

Does IMAP Backup and Archiver work for POP3 email accounts?

IMAP Backup and IMAP Archiver are able to backup files on the server at the times both systems retrieve emails from your email account(s). Both systems work throughout the day but are unable to backup many of your emails if you use POP3 and remove the emails from the server.

In order to backup emails for your account while using POP3, we recommend that you enable the “Leave on server” option in your email program for a period of no less than 48 hours.
