got-your-back VS gmvault

Got your back is the right tool https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back/wiki

alternatively, give them access to the user account and have them use Got Your Back ( https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back )

This tool from the creator of GAM will allow you to purge a mailbox: https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back

THe information it gives is inaccurate and it can sometime just stop. never had a good experience with it. for a couple accounts I'd go for GYB - https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back

GYB - gmail backup tool (I use the linux version, but it does have a version for mac).

if you don't want to spend you can also get only emails with "got your back". https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back

Either Google Takeout for everything, or GYB (got-your-back) https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back for email. You can try GAMADV-XTD3, but it can be super complex and I’m not sure if a standard account can use it or if you have to be super admin.

Do you have other apps installed? Go into the package center and stop stuff. Your issue isn't corruption it's the old and not very powerful hardware (and possibly your drives) not being enough for the workload. If you want to try a different app there is a docker solution https://github.com/gaubert/gmvault

I have tried using gmvault before, but encountered several problems:

1) I'm aware of GMvault and Got-Your-Back for gmails. Are there other options that would work for other email services?

Here's the Docker image I've been running for the last 5 or so years: https://github.com/gaubert/gmvault. Haven't had a single problem.
