same problem here ...

I too had this problem.

I too had this problem. Figured out that it was the email being restored. When I removed the file from the folder, the restore was successful. It was one of ~36,000. Haven't a clue why it failed but will send a copy to the developers.

Same problem here. Anyone

Same problem here. Anyone find a way to solve this?

network error bug fix/workaround

I agree with #2. The issue seems to be caused by 1 email.

Please follow the following steps to fix the issue on a Windows PC:

1. Go to Windows Explorer and open the backup folder that you specified.

2. Find the last email that was succesfully backed up by clicking the Name column. The last file is the last email that was succesfully backed up.

3. Look at the specific date of that email. The date is mentioned in the name of the file.

4. Go to mail.google.com and open your Gmail account.

5. Find the next email that would have been backed up before the network error occurred, as follows:

- Click the small arrow in the search box to open the advanced search options.

- Make sure that All Mail is selected in the drop-down box at the top.

- Make sure that 1 day is selected in the drop-down box at the bottom.

- Enter the date of the last email that was succesfully backed up in the field on the right of "Date within 1 day of". Make sure that you use the correct date format (e.g. dd-mm-yyyy).

- Click the search button.

4. The relevant emails are displayed.

5. Select the email that follows the last email that was succesfully backed up and delete it.

6. Go to Gmail Backup. You'll notice that the network error message has disappeard and that the Gmail Backup process has resumed.

I hope this helps for others as well.

Great tool!

Network error occured

The above is a good solution. In fact, I discovered that the offending .eml file had non-standard ASCII characters in the "from:" header. Upon removing the offending message, the restore continued to the next message.
