Restore previous mails without losing new
Posted: August 27th, 2020, 1:08 am
Hi!
As we all know, if we restore an email account to a previous version, all the "new" mails get lost. For example, if today (August 26) I restore an email account backup from last week (for example, August 21), all mails received, sent, etc. from August 21 to August 26 will be lost, since I'm recovering a "snapshot" from August 21.
Is there a workaround for this? Any way I can restore old mail WITHOUT losing the new ones? I tried using "Download" instead of "Restore", and I download a ".tar.gz" file with the complete directories and files to my computer. Is there any way to "read" this backup on Windows as mails and not only as files? Maybe a way to convert that downloaded "tar.gz" file to an outlook format? Any solution?
Thanks!
