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.

I like mu4e (https://github.com/djcb/mu) for reading emails. You'll need to run mu init [email protected] (append as many --my-address entries as email addresses you receive mail at) in your Maildir and mu4e should start reading it.

For all details, see https://github.com/djcb/mu/blob/release/1.10/NEWS.org (and I'd recommend

And djcb already fixed it: https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2420 !

I've tried to follow the release notes here, but find it hard to follow... for instance, the releases jump from 1.4.15 to 1.6.0? (So where is 1.5.5?) Is there a compilation of all these changes from e.g. ~ to -- and other general refactoring?

> Surely there is a space for minimalist office suites and email clients,

FWIW, my email life improved massively when I left the likes of Thunderbird and KMail behind for the simplicity of mu/mu4e [1]. I hear similarly stellar things about Notmuch [2]. I'm never going back to an email client that even thinks about itself in relation to "office suites".
