<p>Synology&rsquo;s MailPlus seems to be a good candidate for backing up this data. By enabling POP3 fetching, it&rsquo;s possible to both retroactively and continually fetch these emails. If a disaster ever did occur, having these emails would be hugely beneficial.</p> <p>Synology&rsquo;s MailPlus seems to be a good candidate for backing up this data.

<p>When entering the POP3 credentials, I created an <a href=https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords>app password</a> solely for authenticating to POP3 from the Synology device. This is required because I have 2-Step verification enabled on my account. There doesn&rsquo;t seem to be a more secure way to access POP3 at the moment.
