Enhancement: support gmail (non-gapps) accounts #9

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Read the docs
2. See that gmail accounts are not supported by google email uploader
3. Cry.

I'm not sure if this limitation is political or technical, but I would 
definitely take advantage of such a 
tool to migrate my family to gmail (not google apps).

Are there plans to support migration to plain-old-gmail accounts in the future? 
I've been searching 
for a reliable migration solution and thus far have not found it.

Your best bet it just to use IMAP for Gmail and drag and drop your messages.

Yeah, that never works. I've tried apple mail and thunderbird, invariably they 
choke 
partway through the copy.

The whole point is to move my Pop3 mail accounts to Google IMAP. What is the 
point of this otherwise?

For corporate users I guess

It would be great it this worked for non-apps accounts (ie, gmail.com)

I realize you can drag/drop between local and imap, but when you have years of 
email, any program i've tried chokes doing that many messages, so you 
invariably have to break it up and select a big chunk, copy them, then go to 
the next chunk in the message list and repeat... over and over... which is 
horrible, and easy to copy/paste duplicates or miss sections because you lose 
your place.

Has this been solved for Mac?

GoogleEmailUploader- gives error "Uploading to gmail and googlemail.com 
accounts is not currently supported".
