An e-mail management system that includes an e-mail browser having a time variance interface that provides for storage into a storage media of e-mail messages that have been received over time. The time variance interface of the e-mail browser also provides for retrieval, from the storage media, of the e-mail messages corresponding to a user specified date. The retrieved e-mail messages each include an indication of the presence of an accompanying attachment(s) in the e-mail message. An affirmative indication provides the user with an option of retrieving content of the attachment(s) from the storage media such that the content of the attachment(s) is retrieved by the e-mail browser only when specifically requested by the user.

1. An e-mail management system comprising: an e-mail data retrieval manager executing in one or more computer processors and configured to access data associated with a first set of one or more e-mail messages stored in a storage media and representative of a state of the e-mail management system as of a first date;an e-mail browser configured to display the data associated with the first set of one or more e-mail messages, the e-mail browser further configured to display an input allowing a user to provide an indication of a second date different than the first date, and the e-mail data retrieval manager further configured to, in response to a user providing the indication of the second date, access data associated with a second set of one or more e-mail messages and representative of a state of the e-mail management system as of the second date; anda time variance interface configured to alter the e-mail browser to display the data associated with the second set of one or more e-mail messages,at least some of the e-mail messages in the first and second sets having attachments associated therewith, the displayed data associated with the first and second sets including indicators as to the presence of the attachments. 2. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein the e-mail browser is further configured to display a folder hierarchy as of the first date and the time variance interface is further configured to alter the e-mail browser to display the folder hierarchy as of the second date. 3. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein the storage media comprises a first storage media configured to store a first type of data and a second storage media configured to store a second type of data. 4. The e-mail management system of claim 3, wherein the first storage media is configured to store one or more e-mail messages and the second storage media is configured to store one or more attachments to the one or more e-mail messages. 5. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein, upon receiving a specific request, the e-mail browser is further configured to display a history of one of the one or more e-mail messages, wherein the history includes at least one of a first read date, a forwarding date, and a reply to date. 6. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein the accessed data associated with the first and second sets includes message content but not attachment content, and wherein the data retrieval manager only retrieves attachment content in response to a specific request. 7. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein the e-mail browser is further configured, in response to the specific request to retrieve attachment content, to display the retrieved attachment content. 8. The e-mail management system of claim 1, wherein at least one e-mail message included in the first set is also included in the second set, and at least one e-mail message included in the first set is not included in the second set. 9. A method for displaying one or more e-mail messages, the method comprising: accessing with one or more computer processors data associated with a first set of one or more e-mail messages stored in a storage media and representative of a state of the e-mail management system as of a first date;displaying the data associated with the first set of one or more e-mail messages;displaying an input allowing a user to provide an indication of a second date different than the first date;in response to a user providing the indication of the second date, accessing data associated with a second set of one or more email messages and representative of a state of the e-mail management system as of the second date, at least some of the e-mail messages in the first and second sets having attachments associated therewith;displaying the data associated with the second set of one or more e-mail messages; andwherein the displayed data associated with the first and second sets includes indicators as to the presence of attachments. 10. The method of claim 9, further comprising: displaying a folder hierarchy as of the first date; andupon receiving the second date, displaying the folder hierarchy as of the second date. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the storage media comprises a first storage media configured to store a first type of data and a second storage media configured to store a second type of data. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising: storing one or more e-mail messages in the first storage media; andstoring one or more attachments to the one or more e-mail messages in the second storage media. 13. The method of claim 9, further comprising: upon receiving a specific request, displaying a history of one of the one or more e-mail messages, wherein the history includes at least one of a first read date, a forwarding date, and a reply to date. 14.
