Ever wished you backup your email easily? Now you can. Use StashMyMail to quickly copy all of your email into an easy-to-download, easy-to-view archive.

StashMyMail is useful if you:
1) Want to make sure you have a backup of your emails
2) Need easy offline access
3) Want to quickly download all your attachments
4) Your email account is getting full
5) You are closing an account

First, you start by entering your email account information (for any IMAP or POP3-enabled email account). StashMyMail can then login and begin its work. StashMyMail.com will copy all the emails it finds into one convient ZIP archive file. You can then download this ZIP file and easily expand it’s contents onto your PC. All emails are saved in standard text and html file formats, which means you won’t need any special software to open your archived emails. For your privacy, your emails are never stored on our servers.

Currently the service is free, but they do mention a cost at some point, not a major one, $1.98 a month it would seem unless they change it too.
