Can I convert selective GoDaddy emails instead of the entire mailbox?

Yes, and this was one of my favorite features! The DRS GoDaddy Backup Tool includes an email filter option that lets users export only specific emails based on date, subject, or folder. For instance, I only wanted emails from the last quarter — with this tool, I selected the date range and converted only those to EML. It saved me space and made managing email backups much easier.

Yes, you don’t necessarily have to export your entire GoDaddy mailbox. If you only need certain folders, date ranges, or specific emails, you can choose a selective migration approach.

Using a tool like the EdbMails IMAP Migration Tool, you can connect to your GoDaddy email account via IMAP and use its IMAP to PST feature to export only the data you want. The tool lets you apply filters such as date, subject, or folder selection before starting the export.

This is helpful when you just need to back up or move a portion of your mailbox—saving time and avoiding unnecessary data transfer. The resulting PST file can then be opened or imported into Outlook easily.
