Our server has no limits to the size of the mailbox or how long you can keep messages on the server, but we recommend that POP users remove message older than 30 days from the server. Performance of your mailbox may slow down once you have more than a few thousand messages in a single mailbox, and 30 days worth of email is usually a reasonable amount of storage without any impact on performance.

We recommend that IMAP users limit the number of emails in a single mailbox to under 1000 for best performance.

Also, we cannot guarantee that all of your email is backed up at any given moment, so we do not recommend using our server as the only place where you store all of your email.
