My work email is gmail. I'm retiring and my gmail account will be instantly locked and closed the day I leave. They do not allow me to migrate my work gmail account to my personal gmail account so if I can't make a copy, I will lose thousands of emails that I would like to continue to have for reference.

I want to have permanent access to all my work gmails (since 2001) in Thunderbird. On April 30, my gmail account will cease to exist. I'm too nervous to change the Thunderbird/Gmail settings to POP in case there are any issues. I don't want to lose tens of thousands of emails if I don't do it properly.

How can I "load" all my gmails into a Thunderbird file(?) that I can use permanently offline without fear that any messages will disappear?

Copy the messages to subfolders of Local Folders, confirm the copy was successful, then Remove the account on Apr. 30 from Tools/Account Settings, Account Actions. The messages in Local Folders will not be affected. As a test, copy a few messages to Local Folders, delete them from the IMAP folder, and see if the copied messages still exist in LF.
