I'm trying to work out how to download a client's email onto the computer for them to store, as they will be leaving their current server. They have a number of folder and sort mail automatically into these folders.

Chosen solution

Copy all messages from the server to the 'Local Folders' account. You'll need to manually replicate the servers folder structure in 'Local Folders'.
