My father passed away last year, and I have every single email ever written to him or from him. That's only thanks to being the "computer guy" in the family and a chaotic number of overlapping backups (in time). It's an invaluable treasure. Nowadays, with Gmail and people collecting their data on their own, that's not an issue. But many of the old "non native digital" generation didn't preserve data at all.
