Q: How to get mail out of Gmail?

I want to EXPORT ALL MAIL, sent and received, from GMail to Apple Mail and to Yahoo Mail. If you ask this question of Google you get many encouraging replies, but NONE OF THEM explain if it can be done and if so, how to do it. Many explain how to FORWARD new mail to another mail program, but that's about it.

 

I'm trying to move five years worth of email.  25000 emails received and a much smaller number sent.

 

I have a Gmail account and a Yahoo account, and both are fed by my comcast account, comcast being my longtime ISP.

 

Trouble is, some years ago I started forwarding all my mail to the Yahoo account, and then, a couple years later to the Gmail account TOO, and I erased some years worth of email from the COmcast account. So now, what i'm trying to do is consolidate into ONE ACCOUNT all emails set and received.

 

Any ideas on how I can get this done?

    Just open up apple mail and it will ask you to setup your mail account by enter ingyour gmail username and password. it should bring all your mail and sent mail to your apple mail.

     

    you can setup another account with your yahoo mail username and password and it will import everything as well to apple mail.
