Love this. Thank you for charging and respecting privacy. In the future, would be great to have periodic audits from third parties to verify that privacy is being respected (since email is the most sensitive account that I have).

Also, a hugely useful feature for me would be the ability to archive emails older than X days (not just 2 years).

`before:` gives you this functionality if you want to archive your inbox.

That doesn't give me a rolling window to archive my inbox, and you can't create a filter with just "older_than" or "newer_than".
this message validates a feature we are working on. :)
actually, quite a few rules we have can be somewhat replicated in Gmail, but it's not as easy to actually act on the selection.
I went ahead and added more options there: in addition to 6 months (previous lowest) I added 3 months, 1 month, 2 weeks, 1 week. Would that be it?
That works great for me! Thanks!!
