I use bluehome.net, which stores mail in Maildir format, but I am sure Google uses Maildir format for its inboxes, too. Right now, I am using the webmail Webmin interface. Sometimes I use Evolution. Other times I use Thunderbird. I just used OfflineIMAP to fetch all my mail into ~/Mail/ on my local machine. --bound1627225069--
