mail2gg

Email to Google Group migration tool

It provides simple cli tools devised to support migrations or email imports to a Google Group:

• imap2gg
• mbox2gg

It uses the Groups Migration API, a Google Developers Console project with the Google Groups service enabled will be needed. For more information review the prerequisites.

The first execution will start an OAuth2 Google Authentication Flow to initialize and store your grants.
