Thunderbird GMail

more options

I have a Gmail account that I use for a volunteer organization that I am leaving. I need to turn over this email address to my successor. I have Thunderbird installed and use that to view my Gmail account. All my messages in Gmail "All Mail" folder have been "archived" or selected as archived. I like to have all my email messages saved to my laptop.

How do I do this?

Create a folder under "Local Folders". Then COPY the emails to that folder.
