Appalbarry / Gmail-Backup

Gmail Backup was written by Jan Svec and Filip Jurcicek. It appears to have been abandoned for at least a couple of years, but still works just fine with my Mint Linux set up. The Google Code site was about to be shut down in a few days, so I exported it over to Git Hub, primarily so that I know there's an easily available copy that I can access in the future. If you know of a more recent update or fork, please let me know. (Automatically exported from code.google.com/p/gmail-backup-com

Dear all, 

When i try to backup my account i get this message: 

"Error: IMAP: [ALERT] Invalid credentials (Failure)"

But if i open the mail from webmail page, the same password Works fine.

Best regards,

It's done. If you dont have a "strong password", you get that error.

I change my pass to a strong format, and everything is ok!

I had to change the password to a weak one before this would work.
