# Syncing and exporting contacts and emails from SnappyMail
# How to backup your contacts
Although there should be no problem with switching webmail clients, it is highly recommended that you backup your addressbook.
The easiest and quickest way is to _export_ your contacts from the **Contacts** app in the cloud.
## Exporting contacts from the cloud
1. Login to your **Disroot** cloud and select the **Contacts** app;
2. go to the **Settings** menu at the bottom left;
3. click on the three-dot menu to the right of the addressbook you want to export and select **Download**.

You will be asked where to save the file in your computer. Now you have a backup of your contacts.
## Exporting contacts from SnappyMail
Due to a security vulnerability found in our former webmail solution (_more info_ [**_here_**](https://disroot.org/en/blog/2022-04-snappymail)) we had to change it for a new temporary one: [**SnappyMail**](https://snappymail.eu/).
Now, the first time you access SnappyMail you will most likely find your addressbook empty. If this is the case, just follow the steps below to enable synchronization between your webmail and cloud contacts.

Exporting your contacts will take a moment, depending on the size of your address book. When it is ready, you will be prompted to save the file (contacts.vcf) on your computer. Please, save it in a safe place that you can remember later.
# Exporting emails
Unfortunately, exporting emails from **SnappyMail** is a very cumbersome process because it must be done one mail at a time which is not feasible if you have many emails, right?
The ability to export multiple emails at once has not been implemented in **SnappyMail** yet. But there are a couple of workarounds to do this from **Thunderbird** (which do not provide a native feature to backup emails either).
Please check our [**Thunderbird Email Backup**](../../../clients/desktop/thunderbird/exporting) howto to learn about them.
