I don't like how somebody is flagging/downvoting all your comments. This is about your product; it's highly relevant, whatever somebody might think about it.

I don't think it's just "somebody"; I think it's a lot of bodies. I'm downvoting him too because he vibe-coded a super simple "app", then is trying to sell it here as some life-saving tool .

My main complaints:

- Why is this $30?

- Why is it Windows/Mac only?

- Why is it Gmail only when it's using IMAP?

But what really irks me is that you know you can do this exact thing with like two Linux CLI commands?

  ``` 
  $ offlineimap -c <configfile with credentials>
  $ mae export --maildir=test/fixtures/simple --output-dir=test/tmp_output
  ```
