Archive Addresses New Feature

Use our new Forward-to-Archive and Direct-Archive features to save other valuable emails to your Mission Archive:

  • Past email updates the missionary sent — pre-mission emails, MTC weeks, farewell letters, anything from a different inbox before this list existed.
  • Meaningful emails the missionary received — from a mission president, friends, family, or anyone else worth saving.

Forward-to-Archive

Forward any email to this address and it will be saved to your Mission Archive as if it was the original email:

  1. Open the email you want to archive.
  2. Click Forward.
  3. Make sure any attachments are still attached.
  4. Send to the Forward-to-Archive address below.

Direct-Archive

CC this address on any email and it will automatically get directly saved to the Mission Archive:

  • Emails sent to smaller audiences — an email to just family, an email you just send to your missionary, etc.
  • If you prefer to send weekly updates the old school way — as an alternative to the Broadcast service, just CC the Direct-Archive address on each message and they will automatically get saved to the Mission Archive.

  2. Scroll to the Attachments section.
