Backing up Gmail
This post has a good description of how to backup your mail from Gmail. I know that you can do the same thing with any POP3 client, but these steps make it easy to set this up with a cron job.
I configured getmail to download the mail messages to Mbox files, as I didn't want to eat up inodes for each message with the Maildir format.
