I use GMvault for doing this and I’m quite happy with it. Unfortunately, it’s not actively maintained anymore and out of the box, it doesn’t work properly thanks to some annoying changes that Google has made to Oauth, but fortunately, there’s plenty of documentation on GitHub for how to fix it. I have GMvault set up to run nightly using a cron job on my NAS.

With gmvault you can download and sync. http://gmvault.org/ it saves in .eml format, I assume you could use a locally installed web mailer for accessing the emails?

It’s a good idea to use something like gmvault [0] to ensure you have regular downloads of your mail corpus locally. [0] http://gmvault.org/.

For GMail, why this and not http://gmvault.org/? Been meaning to backup my GMail account and had this one bookmarked for ages, but never used.

I use gmvault via a docker container. If you want to go a step further you can create a script to run in task scheduler which zip it up daily in a dated file. I can provide mine if you want.

Either selfhost it, or I may just create another Gmail account, point my MX records to forwardemail.net and set it to forward all mails to my new Gmail account (in which I would have restored all my emails into using Gmvault).
