I bet 99% of people think gmail is magically forever too and don't even backup locally.

    Any idea if there's an interface to easily do this via the command line?

      I use mbsync to pull my Gmail messages over IMAP into a local Maildir/. Works fine, though it requires a generated app password if you have two-factor auth set up on Google.

  What archive format would you back up to, and what application would you use? I looked at this a few years ago and, if I recall, the choices weren't obvious.

    I use cloudpull on Mac, it backups my gmail, google drive, calendar.
