Archiving Email and Favorites

[jeffrey tooker]

I have been looking around for programs for archiving email and favorites.
I do not seem to find much.  I have both email and favorites files going
back several years.  They presently only exixt in my email program and my
browser.  I would like to get them into document files in my computer and
finally to my backup HD.  Does anyone know of a way to do this in Ubuntu or
otherwise?
