Backups, you know it well, are the hallmarks of the intelligent email user. Not because you'll need them — you'll never need your backups.

You Will Use Your Backups

You will want to use the backup process to move or copy your data from one computer to the next. For the emails you have in IncrediMail, settings and filters this is easy with Data and Settings Transfer. But what about your growing collection of cherished IncrediMail letters?

Of course, you can take the letters with you, too (or back them up for emergency).

Back Up or Copy Your IncrediMail Letter Collection

To create copies of your IncrediMail letters for backup or data transfer:
