Hello everyone,
I want to backup , copy, move (any one possible action) mails with attachments from my gmail address to internal \external drive (usb, ssd, hdd). I do not want to send these mails to cloud storage or Google drive. Any guidelines/tutorial link for this ?
Thanks.

Thanks @Marcus Vinicus
Thanks @pseymour .
Download to Google drive{15gb storage space) and then can it be sent to internal/external drive by copy >paste or move ?
Internet needed for each time? Or offline work?
Presently exporting contacts in my tablet.
No definite time given for completion of export.

I downloaded my Gmail stuff just now, it is rather easy peasy and was a zip file. But there multiple options to choose from.

Mine is a 391mb zip file. Took about 10 minutes for Google to get it ready. Really depends on the amount of information involved.

There should have been an option to select download location directly to external or internal drive.
