We'll tell you how you can reduce load times, improve mobile sync and online storage space needed here:

• You are using Microsoft Outlook? Please continue here...

• You are not using Outlook? Please continue here...

• You are using Apple Mail? Please continue here...

• If you are using Microsoft Outlook:

• Open Outlook
• Click on File --> New --> Outlook Data File     

• Choose "Personal Folder (.pst) for Office Outlook
• Choose a folder on your computer for storing the file and continue
• Now you have a new Personal Folder in the folders list below the server online folders
• this folder resides on your computer locally. Click the + sign.      

• Now it es easy to transfer (Drag-N-Drop) files, mails or entire folders from the top online folders to the local folders below. They will then be saved on your computer instead of your server mailbox.

• If you do not use Outlook:

• Download and install our own, free interWaysMAIL Zimbra Desktop Application (complimentary, in our Downloads section), available for Windows, Apple Mac and Linux. Very good for your day-top-day emailing, as well!
• Set it up as described in our setup instructions.
• After the initial synchronisation is completed you will find all your emails and folders in the application
• In the folder list, click on "New Folder" (top left)
