GMX Backup Software for Mail, Contacts and Calendars

GMX Backup Software Checklist

Quick checks before the first run.

Login

Test GMX webmail

Sign in to GMX in a browser. The same details will work in the tool.

Time

Expect speed to vary

Run time depends on internet speed and on the amount of mail being saved. Start a big mailbox when the PC is free.

Output

Choose the format first

Decide between email files and documents before starting, so the export runs only once.

Filters keep only what counts

I have used this tool to store my GMX mails to my pc, and I loved this tool. What I liked the most about this GMX Email Backup Wizard, is the multiple smart filters that enable us to back only selective important data, unlike others. Also, it maintains on disc folder hierarchy for good.

I was always having trust issues as nowadays advertising is quite easy for brands, hence, I was looking for a solution where I can test the tool first before investing my money into it.
