I use an old 2014 Mac mini as a headless file server for my home office. My desktop computer is a 2018 Mac mini with very limited hard drive space.
I have several email addresses I manage, some from gmail, some from other providers. All together it's a large volume of email and attachments. I would like to get them off of the corporate servers and store them on my local server.
I thought the easiest thing would be to configure the server's mail client to use POP and download all of the emails and attachments to the local drive.
But then how would I be able to read and access them from the desktop computer?
Any idea how I can read emails/attachments that are stored on the server while sitting at my desktop? I'm not wedded to Mac's native mail app; I'd consider using something else.
Thanks
Added bonus if I can use the mail client to move emails and attachments into subfolders of my documents folder, so they can be stored with other files that are related to the pertinent topic. (For example, I'd like to save auto-debit notifications from certain vendors in the same folder where I store other receipts and invoices).
Thanks
Edit: Running Monterey on both machines, in case it matters.
