Im switching my email client (from mac mail to airmail) ive got a gmail account i want to move over this account is running on Google Apps for Business and is c. 15gb in size.

I want to setup this account and download all the messages and attachments to my new mail client, the issue with this is the account can become suspended when it reaches a limit and takes up to 24hr to reset.

Is there a method were I can download the data in a way that wont trigger the gmail account suspension ?

Some further reading on the topic :

Google bandwidth limits

You also seem to be able to reset limits in a Google apps for business account according to this article, but Im on the legacy free version.

If you think this question is better suited in another SO forum please let me know i could decide between SuperUser and WebApps

  • If you're using mac mail now, does it already have a local copy of all your mail? Can you import it from mac mail, instead of downloading another copy? Or if it's imap-only now, keep using it like that?

Have you tired using google takeout to just get a copy of the majority of your data, create the new account and then add existing account so it only has to sync a small bit?
