Bonehead question about backing up...
« on: June 06, 2008, 02:41:51 PM »
Thanks in advance to all who would care to reply.

I am a computer bonehead, so please keep that in mind.

I have a long-standing e-mail account at ydl.net.  They use Roundcube webmail, and the web interface is the only interface I have ever used to access this e-mail.

I'd like to back up this information somewhere else....using an e-mail program (Eudora, Mac Mail) or another e-mail service (Gmail).

I have three folders...Inbox, Sent, and sent-mail  (the service for some reason split the sent mail into these two folders after an upgrade a year or two ago, or something like that).

I was successful in getting Gmail to back up the Inbox.  The problem seems to be the Sent and sent-mail folders.  How do I back them up?   I tried with Apple Mac Mail, but they kept asking for the name of outgoing SMTP(?) servers, but I don't know what that means.

Again, thanks to all who would help someone with a bonehead question.

Thanks,

RJ
