Backup your GMail account with GPG encryption.

Project description

Place your config in in ~/.encrypted_gmail_backup

Sample Config:

[gmail] username = stephen.holiday@gmail.com password = changeme

[gpg] keyid = 76AA7B2CF3FD360E binary = gpg

[backup] path = /backup/gmail/ metafile = gmailmeta.txt archive = messages.tar

Be sure to chmod 600 ~/.encrypted_gmail_backup so that other users can’t read your password.

I have MacGPG installed on my system, so I changed binary to:

binary = /usr/local/MacGPG2/bin/gpg2

The full configuration can be seen in defaults.ini.
