WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
I am currently using Thunderbird https://github.com/ich777/docker-thunderbird, connecting to my gmail via IMAP.
I have a script that runs GYB (https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back) downloads all the emails as files. which can be opened with something like thunderbird if needed. or using GYB can reupload to a different google account. it also zips and archives the backup to multiple locations. cron runs it once a day. if any errors are thrown it both emails me and messages on slack with a log file of what happened.
