BMail is a seamless addin for Outlook which easily backs up of selected files and folders to an email address for safe offsite storage. Files are processed with updated files being copied, zipped, attached to an email message and emailed to a remote email address (BMail). BMail is easy to use with the files to be backed up selected as individual files or as complete folders and sub folders. In fact, if all important files are kept under a series of sub folders branching from a single folder, all files can be backed up by simply selecting the root folder. Many easy to use features make the regular backing up of files an easy and trouble free operation. For example, file and folders selected for backing up are displayed in simple tree structure. BMail can be configured to run back up sequences automatically whenever the Outlook is running. BMail also has the ability to process incoming BMails. Incoming mail is checked and if the mail message is a BMail message the attached file is saved to a folder structure replicating the folder structure of the sending PC. The attached zip file can be left zipped or it can be extracted from the zip file and the zip fle deleted.

The most common use for BMail is to provide an easy way to back up files from a computer to a remote computer. Typically, a copy of BMail will be installed on a computer in an office and be configured to back up important files to a PC located in a remote location, such as someone's home, or a colleagues PC. If a second computer is not available to store back up files on, an alternative approach is to create a free email account with one of the many internet entities offering such services. Thus copies of your important files are safely stored in a remote location.
