2 Using GFI MailArchiver : 2.2 Browsing archived emails
To browse through your emails, click Browse node in the navigation panel. The Browse Conversations page will display your archived emails grouped by conversation. GFI MailArchiver displays the most recently updated conversations on top.
By default, GFI MailArchiver displays the conversations stored in the currently active archive store. If multiple archive stores were created, the Browse Conversations page will list them in the List conversations in archive list. To browse the conversations in a different archive store, select the archive store from the List conversations in archive list.
In the Browse Conversations page, the conversations are listed underneath the following columns:
Conversation Subject – the subject of the conversation
Emails - the number of emails forming part of the conversation
Last Email - the time when GFI MailArchiver last updated the conversation with a new archived email.
NOTE: For security reasons, GFI MailArchiver cleans the email body from any malicious scripts before displaying it. GFI MailArchiver however stores the unaltered email body content in the archive store. If you save an email to disk and then open it with another email client, it might contain malicious scripts.
