Agreed. Just pointing out the fact that IMAP alone isn't enough. Nothing replaces backups (whether from your IMAP client or from Google's own backup service.)

- NotSammyHagar 7y agoGoogle doesn't go out of their way to screw people. The problem is their automated spammer systems pick up people and kill their accounts and all their google accounts and you are stuck. That's the problem. There's no human to talk to. It's been a problem for more than a decade.

- krageon 7y ago> Google doesn't go out of their way to screw people We can't know that. There is no recourse when they do screw people and it would look the same from the outside whether it was an automated system or a manual one (or more likely, a mix of both).
