Migrating mall from Gmail
Just a quick question: Does the migrate from Gmail procedure as described in the FM documentation COPY everything or MOVE it?
Thanks |

Thanks. Am getting my partner signed up with FM, and I just wanted to be sure all the Gmail stuff will still be there is she decides she doesn't like FM.

Just tried to migrate but got an error message. Is that because the FM account is still a trial account?

Yes, I read the documentation. This was returned by FM:
Could not login to remote as XXX@gmail.com: IMAP Command : 'login' failed. Response was : no - [ALERT] |

I have logged in to other accounts and imported mail (in the past) while using a Fastmail trial account. I suspect the reason you are not able to login to GMail is not because of this. Are you sure that IMAP is enabled in GMAIL, in your GMail settings?

Solved. I had to tell Google to accept "less secure" applications.
