Does anyone know of an email provider in the free world that will accept the login creds of another ESP & fetch mail from the other account? Checked Danwin, Disroot, Cock.li, Tuta, Protonmail, Autistici, Riseup, mail2tor.. none of them seem to have it.

@m_svo @resist1984

I was going to suggest imapsync..
I use it for migrations between email providers for people often.

Given that you want to use Tor too.. I wonder if it would work with torsocks ?

@m_svo @resist1984 I haven't used torsocks for a while.. but my recollection is you just prefix what you want to do with it..

so

`torsocks imapsync ... `

@kat @m_svo I don't see how IMAPsync would solve this. I wouldn't run IMAPsync without Tor, and if I run it over Tor then Yandex blocks it. Yandex is dropping Tor packets, thus causing timeouts. So imapsync would have to be run by another ESP not myself. I seem to have my issue solved.

@m_svo @kat BTW, it's not that I want my email shared between two ESPs. That's actually a bad thing, but it's a hack to circumvent a tor-hostile entity. I will say that there is a gap in free-world ESPs if Posteo is the only option. I try to get normies off services & this feature would be a useful compromise in some cases.
