IMAP Email Backup and Download to PDF
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I have approximately 30-50GB of emails spanning 10 accounts. I am looking for a freelancer to download and organize these emails and their attachments. The output should be organized into folders as outlined below, and I would prefer the data to be synced to a shared Dropbox folder for ease of access and collaboration.
Folder Structure Required:
• Main Folder: Email address (e.g., abc[at]xyz.com)
• Sub-folder 1: Emails (saved in PDF format, or another readable format like TXT if easier)
• Sub-folder 2: Attachments (organized into folders)
Specific Requirements:
1. Emails:
• Download all emails from the provided accounts.
• Save emails in a readable format (preferably PDF, but TXT or similar is acceptable).
2. Attachments:
• Extract and save attachments into a separate folder for each email account.
3. Custom Time Filter:
• For some accounts, only emails and attachments older than 4 years need to be saved.
4. Preferred Storage Solution:
• Use a shared Dropbox folder to organize and upload the data. This will allow seamless syncing and access to the output.
Access Details:
• I will provide SMTP/IMAP addresses, usernames, and passwords for all accounts.
Skills Required:
• Familiarity with email clients, IMAP/SMTP protocols, or tools/scripts for bulk email downloading.
• Ability to convert email contents into readable formats (PDF/TXT).
• File organization and attention to detail.
• Experience with Dropbox or similar cloud storage platforms.
Deliverables:
• A shared Dropbox folder containing sub-folders for each email account.
• Sub-folders within each account folder for emails and attachments.
Additional Information:
• Please specify the tools or methods you will use to complete this task.
• Let me know the estimated time required and your proposed fee.
• Confidentiality is crucial; all provided data and credentials must be handled securely.
