Archiving clears an email out of your inbox without deleting it. It moves to your Archive folder, where you can still find it and search for it on any device.

Archive or delete?
- Archive email you’re done with but might need later.
- Delete email you won’t need again.
- Archiving doesn’t free up mailbox space, because the email is still in your mailbox. To check your space, see How To: Check How Much Mailbox Space You're Using.
