If you want to store e-mail messages for archival purposes, records management or other storage scenarios, SharePoint makes this as simple as E-mail enabling a Document Library!
In order to configure a Document Library to accept e-mail messages, you have to configure this in Central Administration under System Settings-->E-Mail and Text Messages (SMS)-->Configure incoming e-mail settings. You also have to configure the SMTP Service on the server. If these settings have not been configured, you will not even have the option to configure "Incoming e-mail settings" for your Document Library.
