I belong to one of the development team. Backup your Gmail account can prevent you from loss happen due disaster, save your important emails.

Beyond Inbox can prove handy in such situation, it backup your account at local system in eml files, you can restore them in any IMAP supported account.

Supported platform Windows, Mac & Linux for 32 as well as 64 bit computers.

I’m using Windows XP x64 Pro, when I install the file, it says it’s all done and that I can go and start browsing on my Gmail Drive entry on My Computer… There’s no entry for Gmail Drive in there! Has anyone else had a problem like this? Maybe it doesn’t support 64-bit architecture?

Hi. This is neat. I set this up and can see stuff I copy from my local drive to the gmail drive. But – Do you know a way to get the existing stuff in gmail (previous backups) to show up on the gmail drive local view? Also, I haven’t tried the backups yet. I use wp-dbbackup etc and email directly to gmail .. will it show up on my gmail drive local view? Thanks in advance. // HART

Hart those backups usually don’t show up, I have tried with two different computers and it dosen’t sync.

Just what I upload from here is shown on the current PC and not on the other, I am sure they may be working on it.

But for now this feature does not exist

I got a GMail account. I have a Win XP SP2 Russian. When I want to copy a file onto the GMail Drive it would not! Neither copy/paste nor drag\’n\’drop works. And what\’s more, I cannot SaveAs a do***ent from any program (say, notepad.exe) to that drive. My question is: what else can I do with my GMail? Thank you.
