Show HN: Mail Memories – Export your email photos

[ltiger]

Hey HN, I’m Carlos, the maker behind Mail Memories (https://mailmemories.com), a web app that helps you find and save photos from your (Gmail) email.

The app connects with your email account, finds all the images you’ve received and shows them in a gallery where you can view and download the ones you want to save.

I made this out of curiosity, just to see what pictures were in my account when I first signed up for Gmail 18 years ago. I ended up finding photos of my grandmother and other family members, and old friends and colleagues I’d completely forgotten about.

I was surprised by what I found, I hope you will be too. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts.

How much would you charge to support FastMail via JMAP?

Fastmail’s on my list, but it'll be a while before I get to it since it has fewer users than Gmail and others.

Great idea! I have a very old yahoo account thst I no longer use where there must hundreds of photos. Would be nice to have it worl for yahoo as well. Maybe there is already another tool for that.
