An outside assessment:

I don't know exactly what is wrong with itstool, that should just work like that. However, it might be a good idea in general to switch to modern Gettext instead at this point. If you remove all the itstool underscore markings, and just run xgettext gnome-gmail.appdata.xml -o /tmp/test.pot it will do the right thing (if it doesn't, your xgettext is too old and you don't have AppStream installed - newer Gettext versions won't need AppStream to be installed).

See the Polish translation.
