How To Print Gmail Emails As A Book

Download your mail from Gmail with Google Takeout and upload the .mbox file it gives you. The messages are grouped into their threads and set in order, under the name of whoever wrote each one.

How do I print Gmail emails as a book?

Download your mail from Gmail with Google Takeout, which gives you an .mbox file, and upload that file to read receipts. Sign in at takeout.google.com, untick every product except Mail, and choose which labels to include if you don't want all of your mail. Leave the delivery method on Send download link via email, choose zip, and Google emails you a link to the archive.

How do I export only the emails with one person?

Give every message with that person one label in Gmail first, then export only that label in Takeout. It saves time. The email guide has the steps and a link to Google's help page.

How are the emails set in the book?

The messages are grouped into their threads and each thread is set in order, with the name of whoever wrote each message. Only what each person wrote is kept. The quoted copy of the earlier message under a reply is left out, and so is a standard signature block.

Do attachments and photos print?

No, the book is words only. A small note shows where an attachment was sent. read receipts is not affiliated with Google.

Does the other person find out?

Only when you give it to them. Only one of you needs to make the book, and we never contact anyone else in the conversation. When you order, you confirm that you're in the conversation and that the others in it would be happy to be in a printed book.

What if some of the emails are in another mail app?

Most mail apps can save a message as an .eml file, and we read those. Put the .eml files in one folder, zip the folder and upload the zip. If we can't read what your app saves, send it anyway and we add a reader for it.

How long can it be, and what does it cost?

There is no limit on length, and the paperback is $49 and the hardcover is $89. 700 pages are included in every book, and a longer correspondence carries on in a second book. The digital edition by itself is $19.
