NOTE: Mac Mail Desktop should only be setup with POP3 ONLY and configured to "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message: After one month". As there is no provision on Mac OS to provide auto-archive functionality as there is on Windows Outlook.
NOTE: iCloud Backups can/should be activated for Mac Mail Desktop to archive email older than one month.
Mac Mail Desktop should also be configured to store sent messages locally where possible, see: https://dsonedesign.freshdesk.com/a/solutions/articles/9000237534
To setup retrieval preferences, in Mac Mail, go to: Mail->Preferences->Select Account->Account Information
