Gmail – Exporting Gmail to local Outlook PST

gmailimapoutlookpop3

I need to export out emails from Gmail to an Outlook PST file and it seems slow using this method—Outlook and IMAP/POP3 are kinda slow on archiving.

Is there any other method than going through POP3 or IMAP?

Best Answer

POP3 is not possible because, I think, it doesn't sync labels.

The only other thing is to setup Outlook to only sync specific labels (with IMAP).

Possibly another mail client (like Thunderbird or Evolution) would perform better?
