Translations:E-mails archiveren: hoe en waarom?/25/en

Email clients and mail servers are not designed to store emails permanently, so emails that are worth archiving always need to be saved outside the email application. Some email clients and webmail applications provide an archiving function, but this is not permanent storage. Email clients use proprietary and compressed formats that can result in a loss of metadata and information. It is not clear how emails are archived with webmail, and you remain reliant on companies such as Google and Microsoft to manage your files.
