I also need to download all my gmail emails as I am bumping quota constantly (since I am a pack rat) and cannot get it configured to work! Used to use Eudora with gmail IMAP4 & it worked swell, but that has all been obsoleted. Preference is to store stuff in non-proprietary format, download all attachments, and retain folder structure and original mailbox header (as i forward my spam to my main email). I think I most recently tried getmail with no joy.
