Mine will only import 1,933 of my Gmail email’s (all folders). My Gmail has 15,969 emails though, so it’s definitely not getting them all…

Try using IMAP. I didn't have any problems with getting all of my Gmail emails that way, but I think I only had around 2,200.

MailStore is an amazing app….very useful…but I’m really surprised there isn’t an automatic “set it and forget it” way to backup….for my Gmail and other POP3/IMAP4 accounts, I use a desktop client so it’s sort of a backup where the downloaded messages on the HDD and online automatically stay in sync. Also, if using a desktop client, a simple Xcopy command/batch file can backup everything automatically replacing older backups.

Gmail doesn’t allow all in one downloads (POP,etc). Like if you set up gmail to POP all your emails form previous two years for example to thunderbird all won’t be downloaded in one shot, thats a gmail limit.

I guess I’ve spoken much too early… you know what? I was only able to import my emails up to 7/11/2007… I’ve used the SSL-POP3 configuration. Let’s see if more mail will come down in the very next days.

Uh….. this is what I have been looking for… ages. It really works fine and I would recommend Mail Store in particular if you’re email address is a Gmail one… eheh I’ve lost a whole year, maybe more, of emails thanks to Gmail. I’ve been lucky I forwarded any incoming email to my very old Yahoo! email address since when I started my Gmail account.

I'm glad it worked well for you Michele. It's definitely one of the best solutions for backing up emails, and I'm just amazed that it's free.
