- brongondwana 8y agoYou can auto-download from just about anywhere that provides standard IMAP access!
- ascar 8y agoEven POP3 should suffice for backups. It downloads the complete emails by default anyway :)
- brongondwana 8y agoPOP3 is tricky when you use server-side rules to file emails into multiple folders. You can use + login to fetch each folder individually, but IMAP is definitely nicer to work with. And of course JMAP is coming!
- ocdtrekkie 8y agoBron, I do (kinda) take backups of my FastMail account via an Outlook sync occasionally, but I'd really much rather you also had a Takeout-esque "one and done" download that included calendar and contact data and all. For my major online accounts, I like keeping an archive of these, compressed and dated. Is there any chance FastMail will implement this anytime soon?
- dannysu 8y agoI use offlineimap (https://www.offlineimap.org/ https://www.offlineimap.org/) weekly to backup my email from FastMail.
