Email Backup Software KLS Mail Backup

Despite its name KLS Mail Backup can not only backup email accounts of Outlook Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, Windows Live Mail or Windows Mail but also the web browsers Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and SeaMonkey / Mozilla.

You can configure jobs in the email backup software that backup all or specific data of the selected software programs. The job creation begins with the selection of the first software program that you want to backup. KLS Mail Backup (via Download Squad) will immediately display various data types and their size in a second pane in the same window.

For Outlook Express they are the email inbox, settings, rules, signatures, internet accounts, stationeries and address books. A checkbox in front of every item makes it fool proof to select the items that should be backed up in the job. The email backup software is able to read all profiles if more than one is existing on the computer.

Once the selections have been made you can either add the job and close that window or simply add the job leaving the window open to select a different application or profile that you want to backup as well.

The target directory for the backups can be defined in the properties. It is unfortunately not possible to define different directories for the jobs. Everything is stored in the same directory which can be on a local hard drive, network drive, ftp server or CD / DVD media.

The properties do also contain options to change the compression of the backups including the maximum size of each volume. They also contain basic versioning and an option to delete old backups.

The email backup software has to be installed but is completely portable afterwards which means that it can be moved to a portable device to execute it from there.
