ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter 4.29

ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter lets you save emails easily, flexibly and to a great number of output formats including PDF, HTML, plain text and CHM. While a command line interface is available, ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter is a bit bulky for regular, scheduled archiving, though.

Pros

Cons

The ideal place for archiving emails should be the email client. Unfortunately, most email client's aren't built for this, and Outlook Express is no exception. But even if the shortcomings of OE are of no concern, you may want — or have — to export your emails to PDF, HTML, DOC or CHM files.

With ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter, creating such email archives is easy, and the selection of supported output formats is impressive (some require special converters to be installed, though). Sorting and searching help you organize the output, and in a few clicks the PDF file containing all the newsletters you sent in the last year is ready.

Unfortunately, ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter doesn't thread messages logically, which would be useful for mailing list archives, for example. As easy as exporting Outlook Express emails is manually, as an automatic archiving or backup solution, ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter lacks a bit in comfort and flexibility.

That's not to say that you can't use the command line interface to make ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter perform the desired task, though, and all in all ABC Amber Outlook Express Converter is a competent and comprehensive, albeit not perfect, email archiving solution for Outlook Express.
