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.

Cheers I guess #gmail will always be around but I just don’t want to have the family start paying if we can move emails to storage and maybe slowly transition away.

GYB is very powerful and flexible, and I’ve used it to manipulate Gmail accounts in the hundreds of gigabytes.
The community is decently supportive, but of course it is a command line tool so some familiarity with the shell is useful.
