It allows sending and receiving mail, joining online meetings, storing mailbox data over the Internet, and many more.<\/p>\n<p>We can use Gmail as an application from the web and on smartphones. We may also use portable email clients to access the Gmail mailbox in the local system. All those programs synchronize mailbox content via the IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) or POP (Post Office Protocol) protocols.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_We_Need_to_Back_up_Gmail_data\"><\/span>Why Do We Need to Back up Gmail data?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Gmail is a personal and business email service provider for users that can contain important information about clients, business, personal, etc. So, if you want to go a step ahead, backup is essential to avoid data loss issues.<\/p>\n<p>There are many aspects where you need to think about Gmail Backup like &#8211;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>E-mail accounts and other online accounts may be attacked by hackers at any time.<\/li>\n<li>In case of data loss due to mischievous elements.<\/li>\n<li>Free service can be stopped by Google at any time.<\/li>\n<li>The mailbox&#8217;s maximum storage limit has been reached.<\/li>\n<li>To move Gmail data to another offline email client, and so on.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Create_a_Backup_of_Google_Mail_in_the_Local_System\"><\/span>How to Create a Backup of Google Mail in the Local System?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Gmail backup can be processed in different ways. All methods have slightly different characteristics.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Forward email or messages<\/li>\n<li>Data synchronize<\/li>\n<li>Native Backup tool \u2013 Google Takeout<\/li>\n<li>Gmail Backup Tool<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_By_using_Forward_Mail_Options\"><\/span>Method 1: By using Forward Mail Options<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To go with this option user must have another email account to forwarding mail regardless of any other email client installed on the system. Select the emails and forward them to the new email id for backup. It is simple but it is not a permanent solution to back up a Gmail account.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_2_Data_Synchronize\"><\/span>Method 2: Data Synchronize<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We can take this method as an alternative to the first method because here we will sync the data in any portable email application.<\/p>\n<p>Users can set up a new account to sync Gmail accounts to other email clients like Mozilla Thunderbird, MS Outlook, etc.<\/p>\n<p>While setting up a new account, take special care of the protocol, if you sync data from POP3, then all the data from Gmail is sent to the designated email client while IMAP, it sends a copy of the email.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method3_Native_Backup_tool_%E2%80%93_Google_Takeout\"><\/span>Method3: Native Backup tool \u2013 Google Takeout<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This method is Google&#8217;s in-built function to back up Gmail accounts. In my opinion, it is the safest and most reliable for all users. This is a permanent solution for backing up Gmail accounts in MBOX format without any hurdle. Apart from Gmail backup, users can use this free solution (Google Takeout) to back up any Google service.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Steps:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Log in to your Gmail account at <strong>myaccount.google.com<\/strong> or click the picture and hit the Manage Account option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/gmail-backup-1.png\" alt=\"gmail-backup-1\" width=\"379\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/gmail-backup-1.png 379w, https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/gmail-backup-1-291x300.png 291w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 379px) 100vw, 379px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Go to the \u201c<strong>Data &amp; Privacy\u201d<\/strong> tab then scroll down.<\/li>\n<li>Look for the option: \u201c<strong>Download or Delete your data\u201d<\/strong> &gt;&gt; Click on \u201c<strong>Download Your Data\u201d<\/strong> and scroll down once it opens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/backup-gmail-2-1024x426.png\" alt=\"backup-gmail-2\" width=\"1024\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/backup-gmail-2-1024x426.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/backup-gmail-2-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/backup-gmail-2-768x319.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/backup-gmail-2.png 1169w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Press on the Next Step to go next window \u201c<strong>Delivery Method and File Type<\/strong>\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1579\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/save-gmail-backup-3.png\" alt=\"save-gmail-backup-3\" width=\"713\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/save-gmail-backup-3.png 713w, https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/save-gmail-backup-3-300x199.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 713px) 100vw, 713px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Now choose <strong>Frequency<\/strong>, <strong>File type<\/strong> (.zip), and split size (2GB) then click on Create Export button.
