As good as the product is, the one thing that is better is John Steward's customer support. He responded to my questions immediately, walked me through an issue I had and now it is working perfectly again.
I can not recommend highly enough.

I am able to search and find all of the important emails that I was originally saving. This application is a life saver!
I was experiencing an issue with MailSteward and was working on it around midnight. I sent the developer an email and expected a response the next day. 15 minutes later I received a reply that took care of my issue. I have never experienced customer support like I have with this developer.
Great application and greater customer support!

It's really reassuring to know that every once in a while I can delete six months worth of email out of Mail to clear out the cobwebs and keep it ticking over smoothly, but the archiving is already done. So all of my invoices, software serials, business communications, and so on, are still there for me to access, without me having to take anything more than set up MailSteward once, then let it do its thing. The first run takes a while, and after that it goes much more quickly.
It really has been, for me, set and forget.
The main negative for me is speed of searching. Searching the archive for the first time after MailSteward boots up is slow. I'm talking minutes, not seconds. But everything's relative, and I have quite a lot of email in that database by now. I hope the dev can find some way to make that work better.
On the whole, however, this app has proven the best for me, and I've tried a few.

I used the lite version for several years and then gladly paid for the complete version which allows for unlimited message archiving.

Now I can only use the "free version" unless I want to pay for a new license.
There is no place to contact the developer on their website, so I am writing here, in hopes that they will solve the problem.

The first time I was happy with TimeMachine, to put back the elder version ... What did I do wrong?
