solution to make this less painful if it happens to you: setup a script (i have a python script) that uses fetchmail to pull your gmail everyday after a certain time (i use 9pm since most of my emailing is finished after 9pm).
worst case scenario you lose 24 hours of emails.
- tocomment 18y agoCould you write up a tutorial on how to do that? Getmail also looks promising but the config section of it's documentation is like 12 pages long. I just want to backup Gmail, dude.
- bkbleikamp 18y agoThis is ironic, but...Google it :) Also getmail is easy to install with MacPorts.
