got-your-back VS Mail-in-a-Box

i THINK a mail client can do that or maybe this      https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back/wiki

https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back/wiki - free Gmail backup/restore utility, command-line only

https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back or email client with IMAP (drag drop your stuff)

There's also a fantastic tool by Jay Lee that will do it in an automated fashion

https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back

If you need to import an MBOX go for Got Your Back ( https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back ).

I suggest using https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back for gmail.

It works better because it can copy rules, labels, stars, etc.

may i recommend https://mailinabox.email ?

I don't see why we are a long way away. At the sandstorm end, we need to get to the point, where all updates (of both sandstorm and the apps) on the user machine are automatic. Much like they are automatic on various OSes (mobile OSes in particular but also MacOS/Windows). This is not impossible if a single OS like Debian-testing is targeted.

Mailinabox [1] almost does it. They target Ubuntu stable, and upgrades are mostly silent. But they needed user intervention when Ubuntu had to be upgraded from 18.10 to 22.04, which was quite challenging.

If sandstorm can get there, then putting it into a RPi box is simple. What's difficult is helping the general public understand the importance of protecting their data, so such a product has a reasonable market.

If you have a better solution, for example a good provider who offer agency packages which allows many domains and there is no catch, for example very small disk space, then hit me right away. Otherwise, please share your experience with hosting your own mail service. I found https://mailinabox.email/ and https://www.iredmail.org/ for example, but never had any experience with neither of them.

mailinabox.email works great on a basic vps.
