Charles L When I attempt to purchase, the price shown is 11.95 instead of 9.95. Please advise.
May 28 2009 at 5:11pm
Brian H Ditto at $11.95 for me too.
May 28 2009 at 6:13pm
John Finkelstein I am sorry if this comes off as rude, but I am intrigued with your product, and I wondered how does his differ from using a Pop3 to donwload and archive that way? All those apps you list could natively do the POP3.
May 28 2009 at 6:14pm
Sune Magnberg Hi,
I'm getting confused about the price. It is advertised as 9.95 USD but when I want to place my order it suddenly becomes 11.95 USD and on top of that there is Extended Download Service at 2.89 USD which seems to be obligatory. Please clarify matters.
Regards,
Sune
May 28 2009 at 6:53pm
Edwin Yip Hi John,

Good question. With Pop3 protocol you can access the Inbox folder only and you cannot backup the other folders such as Sent, starred, etc, not to mention backing up the labels.

More over, Gmail Keeper can do the backup automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, without the need of manually operations. In other works, Gmail Keeper is specifically developed for the purpose of backing your emails and labels in your Gmail (and Google Apps email) account, while the other mail clients are serving as their own purposes.

Hope this is clear.

Edwin Yip Hi,

Before the people at bitsdujour.com correct the purchase link, you can always input the coupon code yourself mentioned above, note that it's the second page where you can input the coupon after you clicking on the purchase page. Thanks.
Innovation Gear Vendor - May 28 2009 at 7:24pm
Nico Westerdale The buy link should be correct now.

(please note we removed the coupon code mentioned above from the comments here)
BitsDuJour Admin - May 28 2009 at 7:37pm
Edwin Yip Thank you so much for correcting the by link, Nico.
Innovation Gear Vendor - May 28 2009 at 7:39pm
Nico Westerdale Please note that the Buy link is now correct.

For the 'Extended download service', you can delete it by ticking the check box on the right and then click the Update button. Thanks.

Bron Faison Just purchased GateKeeper. Installed in 2 minutes, configured in 2 minutes and I was then immediately able to backup my gmail account.

Very simple, very well done. Easy to use and works great. I was a software developer myself, and I really like simple, cheap tools like this. Good job!

If you want a simple, easy way to backup your gmail account, I can recommend this - a a great deal at thsi price.
May 29 2009 at 12:27pm
Edwin Yip I'm glad to hear that you like Gmail Keeper, Bron.

BTW, it's called Gmail Keeper, not GateKeeper :)
Innovation Gear Vendor - May 29 2009 at 1:09pm
Martin Chou I just purchased Gmail Keeper as well. Got it up and running quickly and migrated my gmail account without a problem.

Thanks for such a great product.

Note: I just realized I paid $11.94 USD for it when it should be $9.95. Is there any way to get the difference back?
May 29 2009 at 3:41pm
Edwin Yip Hi Martin,

Thanks for your kind words.

As for the price, you should have selected the 'Extended download service' provided by the payment processor. We'll ask the payment processor how to handle you request anyway. here is the description of that service:

EDS means that with the purchase of your digital product, we'll keep a copy of your file for ONE FULL YEAR. You'll gain peace of mind knowing that we have your program stored and ready for you to download again at your convenience once your computer is up and running again.

Sabrina Pedron Hi Edwin,

Referring to your past reply to John Finkelstein ("With Pop3 protocol you can access the Inbox folder only and you cannot backup the other folders such as Sent, starred, etc, not to mention backing up the labels), I would ask a question before purchaising the innovative Gmail Keeper: I need to backup my Gmail 4-year archive locally. Actually I read and send emails through Gmail panel remotely.

If I am not wrong, pratically, it seems I cannot backup locally Sent folder but only the Inbox one (together with attachments no matter their nature). Is there some news to avoid this problem?

Thanks for your attention.
Sep 29 2010 at 12:55am
Edwin Yip Hi Sabrina,

All emails in Gmail web can be backed up, including emails found in the  'Sent' folder. Hope this helps.
Innovation Gear Vendor - Sep 29 2010 at 1:45am
Sabrina Pedron Hi Edwin,
thank you very much for your quick reply. Nice to read everything works fine with this product.
Sep 29 2010 at 1:49am
Yosh M Did the price go up? All the comments above talk about $9.95, but the link box now says $11.97
Feb 16 2011 at 10:45pm
Thomas O'Duffy Please advise - this says 40% off @ $11.97, but when I click the link, it comes up as $35 USD including the extended download service???
Aug 24 2011 at 12:31am
Edwin Yip @Thomas, I'm afraid Gmail Keeper is not promoting on bitsdujour.com today. You can buy it at the regular price however, and you can remove the 'Extended Download Service' item on the order form.
Innovation Gear Vendor - Aug 24 2011 at 1:29am
ron r How can you accomplish the following:

"...Make sure the target account is not sending/receiving email during restore..."

The sending of email I can off course control myself by not sending any email during restore. But the receiving part I do not understand a gmail account can always receive mail through google?

Or is there an option to temporarily turn off sending/receiving?

Thank you
Jul 28 2012 at 2:00am
Edwin Yip @Ron,

That statement is out of date. Don't worry about that with the current version of Gmail Keeper.
Innovation Gear Vendor - Jul 29 2012 at 11:36pm
Marian Glorioso Hi !

Aug 7 2012 at 12:15am
Edwin Yip @Marian,
Please edit the backup profile, tick 'Backup by date range', then select the date range you want to backup. Hope it helps.
