I have several email accounts for 2 businesses. I wish to be able to back them up to one folder on an external hard drive. When I select the same folder I get the message that, the folder is in use with another email address. I don't wish to have 8 separate email folders. Is there a way around this?

You can configure each account to keep the messages in Local Folders: Options: Account Settings: <account name>: Server Settings: Message Storage: Advanced button.

Or if you just want all the messages in the same folder for backup purposes, then "Archive" the messages in the same archive. Options: Account Settings: <account name>: Copies & Folders: Message Archives.
