    This I don’t get. Your work doesn’t archive emails? There’s been many times I was asked a question I knew came up years ago and thanks to the archive of mails I could answer the question quickly instead of starting from scratch again.

      That’s how it was at my old job and I miss it. At my current workplace they only retain mail on the server for 1 year. If you want to retain it longer you have to archive it yourself and I just don’t have the local storage to archive all of my email on my machine like that. (External storage devices also aren’t allowed.)
