Ann >From the discussions I see here, I get the impression that many people use a local email program connected to one or another email service. A few years ago I gave up on email programs. For one reason or another, they all eventually have problems. Web mail seems to work with a much greater reliability.
So, I gave up on email programs and read my mail via the web. If I want to save something and file it locally, I save it to Evernote. Evernote optionally syncs to a local copy on any or all of your devices. So, when I want to save an email, it is available on any device that I've chosen to sync, it's also available via the browser on Evernote's servers. So I can get to my mail archive from anywhere. I use more than one email service, but all of my mail is filed in the one place. One very nice side-effect of using Evernote. It makes migrating to a new computer a fast and simple process. The last new laptop was up, configured and running in less than an hour. Data transfer and loading programs took very little time. Most of it was spent fighting with iTunes. Even if I ever return to using an email program, I'll keep my mail in Evernote.
