  Backing Up AOL Mailbox

  Posted by Don on 01/09/2023 at 6:43 PM

  Greetings All,
  Is there a safe and free way to backup my AOL data to my PC or external drive? I’d like to have a recoverable backup of all the email in case of corruption or internet issues.
  Thanks in advance!

  Hello Don,

  If you would like to have a local backup I recommend using a mail client installed on your computer.

  If you are using Windows or Mac you can use Thunderbird mail client to connect to your AOL account, if you configure Thunderbird to download entire emails and not just the message headers this will ensure you have a backup copy stored locally on your computer instead of just AOL servers.
