I've backed up and restored over ~150k emails from gsuite to personal account with 99.9% success.

The one thing I wanted to mention - about ~10K emails ended up in spam. I noticed in debug log that this param is used: 
/upload/gmail/v1/users/me/messages/import?neverMarkSpam=true
Somehow its being overwritten. I've ended up moving the spam messages to inbox and then archiving - all the labels are still there.

I also have 23 emails that are failing with "ERROR: 400: Invalid attachment", I will see if I can figure out what blocks them via debug log.

This is:


You can try the --cleanup argument.

Regarding failed attachments, these are usually viruses or malware in my experience.

Thank you Jay. I've looked at attachments - these are all scripts: txt, bat, sh etc. The messages are from 2009-2012, I with so few of them I could review them and decide that they can be left behind.

Thank you for the tool, it worked excellently.
