Mailstore Home is my go-to software when it comes to backing up email and migrating email between programs and computer systems. I’m using it to speed up Thunderbird by backing up and removing old emails from the application to lighten its load, and to backup Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo Emails.
The developers of Mailstore have just released version 7.1 of the program introducing official support for Microsoft’s Windows 8 operating system. This is the only new feature addition to the application. Four additional changes have been made to the program, of which two are bug fixes for issues that some users may have encountered while using the application.
- The authentication mechanism Digest MD5 is no longer usable in combination with the IMAP protocol
- Changed E-mail messages that (because of an error) still exist in the search index, but not in the database, are longer contained in search results
- Fixed Debug log files have an incorrect name under certain circumstances
- Fixed Outlook MSG files whose Internet Headers property does not end with a line break can’t be read by MailStore
