DreamHost facts
A DreamHost plan holds client mail, order confirmations and signed attachments. One missed renewal or a corrupted mailbox and that history is gone. This software writes it to a drive before trouble starts.

One Corrupt Mailbox Can Wipe Out Years of Mail
Shared hosting mailboxes are easy to forget until something breaks. A second copy on a local or external drive means a damaged account or a cancelled plan no longer decides what survives.
Core features
Install, choose mail, glance over it and back up.
Install
Download the setup file, install it on a Windows PC and start the DreamHost email backup tool.
Choose
Log in with the mailbox credentials. Server address and port number are filled in by the tool, so manual setup is skipped.
Glance
Several preview panels display messages with attached documents before the backup is started.
Go ahead
Choose what to do with the mail. Email files, document files, email services and desktop clients are all listed, so the choice follows the goal.
Backup
Set a destination folder, press the backup button and watch progress. A long run can be paused and resumed later.
Before exporting
Tidy habits for a clean archive.
Step one
Verify the login
Sign in to DreamHost webmail with the same details. If it opens, the backup tool will connect too.
Step two
Reserve disk space
Attachments add up fast. Choose a destination drive with room for the entire archive.
Step three
Run a trial folder
Back up one small folder with the demo and compare the output against webmail.

This is a very useful tool as it helps to move the emails to the desired email application. I wanted to back up the DreamHost emails locally which I could do successfully. I am quite happy with the DreamHost backup tool and have recommended to my colleagues.
I wanted to keep a backup of Dream Host email files in a local hard drive. The reason was to secure files in case they get corrupted or damaged. I tried Dream Host Mail Backup Tool and I must say that it's wonderful and I love to recommended this solution to my colleagues.
The best part of the DreamHost Email Backup Tool is its ability to save the emails into multiple formats. Such a feature makes it unique and different from other tools. I had converted my emails into PDF so as to create a repository for future reference. This tool support multiple formats.
