Editor's review

Aid4Mail helps to migrate emails to another mail client, export them for viewing in IE, Excel, or a database, and archive them to save space or for compliance with legal requirements. It supports many mail clients and processes all messages reliably and quickly.

Pros: Aid4Mail is a user-friendly Windows tool that helps you migrate your email messages to a different mail client, export them for viewing through Internet Explorer, MS Excel, or a database, convert them to extract or re-insert attachments, and archive them to save space or for compliance with legal requirements. Aid4Mail supports many popular mail client programs and processes messages reliably and quickly, including those with file attachments and embedded contents like pictures and background images.

One has the choice of exporting email merged into a single mailbox file or as individual message files. File attachments and embedded items like pictures and background images separately. E-mails could be archived without attachments and to save further space, even as plaintext messages. E-mail addresses of people users have communicated with can be separated out, helping rebuild address book or creating a mail list. There are different versions of the program that has slightly different functionality.

Aid4Mail offers a powerful archiving feature that helps save mail in a highly compressed zip file with attachments being in separate folders within the zip. That allows easy extraction when needed. Mail folders are stored in a non-proprietary mailbox format that most mail clients can read, guaranteeing compatibility with future systems.

Cons: Some of the features that aim at saving storage space does not really make sense any more. Particularly since storage is so cheap now and is plentiful with 500 GB or even terabyte drive becoming common.

Overall this package serves a very useful purpose in view of the statutory requirements of storing email messages for a long time. Besides the ability to switch between different mail systems also is useful at times. Overall a 4 star application.

Aid4Mail gives you the choice to export email merged into a single mailbox file or as individual message files. You can also extract file attachments and embedded contents separately from your mail folders. Another option lets you save your email without file attachments or, if you want to save even more disk space, as plain text messages. You can also extract names and email addresses of people that have been corresponding with you. This feature is ideal if you need to rebuild an address book or create a mailing list.
There are three versions of Aid4Mail: Standard, Professional, and Enterprise. The Professional and Enterprise versions offer similar capabilities but use different licensing models. Both can handle more than 20 mail clients and mailbox formats. The Enterprise version also includes a Win32-console version of Aid4Mail that power users can run from batch files and other applications. The Standard version provides an economical solution for the needs of most home users.
Aid4Mail Professional can export from and import messages into Office Outlook and other Windows Messaging/Exchange clients. It offers a powerful archiving feature that enables you to save all your mail directly into highly compressed ZIP files. Attachments are stored in a separate folder within the ZIP files, allowing easy extraction, and mail folders are stored in a non-proprietary mailbox format that most mail clients can read, guaranteeing compatibility with future systems.
