    Well, yes.
    That option is not turned on by default because it does cause your database size to grow HUGE for busy stores.
    Plus, most storeowners have their stores set up to send the storeowner copies of all order-confirmations (etc) emails (Admin->Configuration->Email Options->"Send extra copies of xxxxxx emails to ...."), so they don't need to make Zen Cart store that same information in duplicate.

    Thank you
    This was pertaining to a specific email that was sent to a specific customer via the back end. MY client was tying to retrieve the email she had sent to her customer through the zen cart back end

    Hello,

    My Enable Archiving Active? is False.

    We would like to send an e-mail to all 14,000 customers and we do not need to save e-mails.

    Will this grow Database (proportionally to number of customers)?

    Thank you for response in advance.

    Sending an email to 14,000 customers is going to put your site into a world-of-hurt with your hosting provider. Better to use a bulk-mailing service like MailChimp or Constant Contact.

    Provider allows 600 emails per an hour, so it can be done in a week.

    Is it possible to select 599 addresses at ones in Zen Cart?

    Or better way is somehow export all emails into spreadsheet and copy and paste 559 at a time?
