gmail backup Author: Richard Tew LICENSING: This project is released under the terms of the MIT license, which you should find included in the LICENSE file. USAGE: This is how I use it currently, note that it requires you to have this directory as your current working one: 0. Edit updateCache.py and set 'backupSearchResults' to True. 1. Open a DOS command window. 2. cd into this directory 3. python updateCache.py 4. enter your user name. 5. enter your password. 6. wait. At this point given a lot of mails and threads to process, gmail may lock you out. If it is in a way I have not encountered, then you will need to repair the data. If it is in a way I have encountered and I expect it would be, then you need to wait until the account is unlocked and retry. This is the reason why it is safer to enable the backup of search results. Because in order to reduce the load on the gmail server and prevent your account being locked, the script proactively saves out the information fetched. Do not delete this cached data when it prompts until you are sure the account has been updated. In order to use the 'updateCache.py' script, you will need to have libgmail installed, which you can obtain from: http://libgmail.sourceforge.net/ There are further comments at the top of the 'updateCache.py' file. POTENTIAL PROBLEMS: You may have to tweak the script to get it to work. I backed up my account while developing it, and do not know how it handles backing up an account from the beginning. Let me know if this is beyond you, if it does not work, and I will sort this out. WHY USE THIS SCRIPT: Quoted from my blog: http://nameless-sorrows.blogspot.com/2006/08/backing-up-gmail-account.html "There are a lot of interesting and useful services on the internet these days, like gmail and blogger. But when I take advantage of them, I cannot help but feel pained by the fact I am entering my content/information into a something controlled by someone else. There is a certain satisfaction to having a copy of your own information, knowing that if the service goes away, or changes it terms of service, you still have everything you created to do with as you wish."
