Chapter 12: Archiving and Backup

Billions of emails are sent every day! The average worker receives over 100 emails per day. With Outlook currently being one of the top communication tools used in business, these numbers will continue to rise.

The question we usually face is, when do you delete an email and when do you save it? My friend recently told me she had over 16,000 unread emails in her inbox, and her inbox is still growing. How many times do you glance at an email and not read it completely because you know the content, but you just don’t feel good about deleting it? You never know when you may need that email, which just escalates the problem of never having control of your inbox.

As we go through this chapter, you will be guided to take control of your inbox and learn about the following topics:

  • Archiving
  • Saving emails outside of Outlook
  • Backup in Outlook
  • Exporting and importing
  • Restoring .pst files
