What is the status on this? |
Some thoughts what needs to be clarified for the implementation:

Hello from the future 👋 just checking in on this |
Exporting even just a couple dozen emails takes ages. Also the "select all" checkbox only selects emails that have loaded into view... |
Tutanota could implement an IMAP bridge like the one that Proton has done. Furthermore, Proton made the underlying library open source: |
there's a "load all" button for this. This issue is not about selecting things or about IMAP bridges, this is about bulk export, please refer to "Discussions" for unrelated topics |
I'd like to suggest that, instead of only allowing a bulk export of all emails from the dawn of time that the user be given the option to select a start date, similar to how the Search function works. For example, the user should be able to export only emails from 2022-08-20 through the current time. Otherwise, doing monthly or yearly backups would having to re-download possibly tens of thousands of emails that have already been exported. This would be annoying for the user, take up more time, and unnecessarily stressful on both the Tuta server and the client device. Selecting individual emails is not sufficient for a large time-specific export for the same reasons it is not sufficient for a complete export. I know this is only on the roadmap and not yet being implemented, but I thought this was an important criterion to set before the feature was produced. |
As a user i want to be able to export all the emails in my mailbox at once so that i don't have to go through each folder and select the emails.

Implementation hints
We already did some research on this topic and notes were taken in the Wiki how export is done by other providers. Information can be found under "Development > Tutanota > Compatibility"
