What is new for Mail Archiver X version 8.0?

Mail Archiver version 8 has various speed improvements. There are new operators for the Filter like a simple pattern matching. It's now possible to search for mailboxes in the Filter. Tags like keywords or notes can be edited. There is now an import wizard for the accounts from Mail and Outlook. And lastly support for POP accounts has been added.

Speed Improvements

The dmg file is now 20% smaller and the application 10%. The size of the email previews has been decreased. New emails archived now use 10-20% less space. Archiving is about 10% faster.

Filter Improvements

The filter has new operators: Contains Smart and Matches Pattern improve the search for text. Within Last, This Period, Last Period improve searching for a date range. With Is and Is Not it's now possible to search for attachment types like PDFs.

Also new is an improved mailbox selection. When you click on the search button in the mailbox criteria, a popover window opens where you can search for mailboxes. By default, the mailboxes are shown in a shortened view. With "Show full path" you can see the entire path. The search applies to the full path - regardless of whether it is displayed or not.

Editable Tags

It's now possible to edit tags with project, keywords, priority, due date, flag and note. When you click on the pencil icon behind project or keywords you will get a popover window to select the respective values.

Import Wizard for Accounts from Mail and Outlook

Importing accounts from Mail and Outlook is now much nicer. After selecting import from the accounts area you will see the window below. You only need to enter the password and click on the Check button. If the password is okay then the account gets a green check mark. Only the checked accounts will be imported!

Added Support for POP Accounts

Mail Archiver can now archive POP accounts. Creating an account is similar to IMAP accounts. Select POP3 from the list of available options and then enter your account details:
