Product Description:

  • Safely archive your large volume of vital email information.
  • Easily access your email database with fast, sophisticated searching.
  • Protect your precious email data from data format obsolescence.
MailSteward will archive all of your email in a database for easy retrieval. Click on the Store Email button and MailSteward will go to work storing copies of all your email text, HTML, attachments, and raw source, into a relational database file. MailSteward has a wealth of features for importing, tagging, saving, and exporting, including the ability to export your vital email information to a number of standard data formats.

What's new in this version:

  • New feature to refine a search by searching within an existing search results list.<
  • The email date and time is now adjusted to the local system time zone. This may cause some duplicate emails to be archived the first time an archive is done with the new version 8.0.3 because the adjusted datetime will not match some email that has already been archived.
  • Fixed a minor bug that allowed the email account/mailbox list in Settings to be editable.

MailSteward Commentarydeceit - Version: 8.2.7, 12/4/2009 01:59AM PST

I am looking for some better way to sort through mail. This seems to be the better choice as to what would work for me. Unfortunately the comments and a few clicks, including on the radio show mp3, got me to a proceed with caution mode. I do not like any form of bait and switch, its clear that that is exactly what this developer did. Too bad the software itself seems good.

Another thing is the use of the word shareware. There is a difference between that and commercial software. You pay for commercial software straight out, while you use shareware until you decide to keep it and keep using it and then you must pay for it. And yes shareware implies the honor system. When a developer does not have the courage to be truthful, and tries to ride the shareware "coolness factor", he/she pushes me further into proceed with caution territory.

I like using good software and I do not mind paying for it. But deceit caused by lack of courage, is still deceit. Moving along...

MailSteward CommentaryPoor handling of upgrade policy - Version: 7.9.6, 5/9/2009 05:07AM PST

I agree with several of the previous comments. I purchased this product with a "free upgrade" policy only to find out that shortly after, the developer decided to charge for upgrades with no apology. I understand that developers have to make a living, however, deceiving customers may not be the best way. Having lost trust in the developer who I feel handled this very poorly when I contacted him about the upgrade, I stopped using the program.
