\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The problems with the method –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/p>\n
\n- It takes a lot of time because you have to open each email separately to download it.<\/li>\n

<\/p>\n
Back up your Gmail emails with Google Takeout<\/strong><\/p>\nThis is the second way to save a lot of Gmail emails with files at once. We don’t think this is the most common way. This method can save a lot of data, but there are some things you should know about it. <\/p>\n
\nBut first, we need to talk about how to use Google’s “takeout” choice to save all of your emails from Gmail. <\/p>\n
\nFull instructions on how to use Takeout to save emails<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\n- To get to your Google account, go to https:\/\/myaccount.google.com.<\/li>\n
- On the left side of the Google Account welcome page, click the “Data & Personalization” link.<\/li>\n
- Scroll down until you see “Download, delete, or make a plan for your info.”<\/li>\n
- Now, pick “Download your info” from the drop-down menu.<\/li>\n
- Now you need to uncheck all the other boxes and only pick “Mail.”<\/li>\n
- Now choose how often, what kind of file, and how big the file should be. Finally, click Create Export.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Here’s how to back up a lot of Gmail emails from all folders at once. <\/p>\n
\nCheck out the Things That This Method Can’t Do –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/p>\n
\n- The problem with this method is that you have to download files from all of your folders, even if you don’t want to.<\/li>\n
- You can get to your data until you find a tool that works with MBOX ZIP format.<\/li>\n
- Another problem is that this process could take hours or days to do by hand, which means you could have access to your data for longer than planned.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Now that you’ve seen the second way, here is the third one. Go through it and save Gmail emails with full folders.<\/p>\n
Setting up Gmail with a Different Account<\/strong><\/p>\nYes, this is possible with desktop-based apps. You can add more than one account and handle them all from the same platform with most system-based clients. <\/p>\n
You can set up your Gmail account and keep your emails safe with just a few email apps. You can use the system-based account to get to your email if you can’t get to it through Gmail. <\/p>\n
Because of this, we suggest that you use a free email app like Thunderbird. You can use this way to back up your Gmail emails if you like it. <\/p>\n
Setting up an email account on Gmail <\/strong><\/p>\nTurning on IMAP in your Gmail account is the first thing you need to do.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n- Go to your Gmail account and click on the gear button, Select Gmail settings.<\/li>\n

After that, open Thunderbird, type in your name and Gmail password, and click Continue. Next, check the box next to IMAP and click on Manual setup. Last, click Test again. <\/p>\n
Note<\/em><\/strong>: Please remember that the IMAP address is imap.gmail.com and the port number is 993. The SMTP address is smtp.gmail.com, and the port number is 465.
\n<\/em>
\nAfter making sure everything is correct, click “Create Account.” Your Gmail account is now added, and you can check your emails.
\nSo, this is the third way to save copies of your Gmail emails.<\/p>\n\nWhat the Method Can’t Do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- You must first set up an account on your computer if you don’t already have one.<\/li>\n
- There is an accepted format for saving data from the account, and you can get it back using the same account or a supported app.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
