Back Up Your Email Using Thunderbird

✏️ Using a desktop email program to back up email avoids potential data loss. I'll show you how using Outlook.com and Thunderbird as examples.

Configure Thunderbird to access and download your email using your email service’s IMAP settings to back up. Leave Thunderbird running (or run it periodically) to make sure your backups are up to date. You’ll also need to periodically manually export and download your contacts to back them up as well.
