I came across mention of IMAPSync and Larch as tools to move emails out of Gmail to a new email account. Does anyone have any experience using these?

I have a family’s worth of email gmail accounts all of which are running out of space and will need to be moved to a new email provider. They would of course all like to keep their historical sent and recieved emails.

    When I did it, I did it manually with thunderbird, which is a great way to delete clutter meanwhile

    Just select 1000 emails at a time and drop them in another IMAP server folder

      You can even just do Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.

      It somehow feels… Wrong, but it just works.
