Ask Dr. LJ - slightly technical

I am using gmail for more and more of my email.  I want to save/archive/sort some of that mail in a place that is not gmail/internet dependent. Does anyone know if/how this is possible?

EDIT: thanks for the suggestions. I have it figured out now.

It is. Some, well, googling of 'archive gmail account' should find info. Sorry, I've got to head out in a moment and won't be on line today to give more help.

Hhhmmm ... I don't know if it is inside of GMail. I download my gmail to Thunderbird (Mozilla's Outlook replacement) and archive it that way ... dunno if that helps ...
