If all you really want is email archival, then DEVONThink isn’t the way to go, especially considering that option is only available in the most expensive version (<a href="http://www.devontechnologies.com/products/devonthink/comparison.html" class="">http://www.devontechnologies.com/products/devonthink/comparison.html</a>).

<blockquote class=""><p dir="auto" class="">I’m intrigued by comments about Devonthink. Could someone give me a brief description of the program and how it works? I don’t mean a technical account, just a short message about how to use it, what it does, etc. Or a link to where I can find such a descriptions. I’ver used Evernote for years, love it, and it seems there is overlap.</p><p dir="auto" class="">Thanks.<br class="">
