# Test Sync Gmail Inbox

Download emails from 2026 only and save each one as an `.eml` file in `$OFFICER_USER_ROOT/Gmail/emails/`.

## Steps

1. Create the `$OFFICER_USER_ROOT/Gmail/emails` directory if it doesn't already exist.
2. Call `gmail` with `action=get_profile` to confirm the account is connected.
3. Loop **month by month**, starting from the current month down to January 2026:
   - Call `gmail` with `action=sync_inbox`, `output_dir=$OFFICER_USER_ROOT/Gmail/emails`, and `query=after:YYYY/MM/01 before:YYYY/MM+1/01`.
   - Report the result for that month (e.g. "February 2026: saved 47 emails").
4. When finished, count the total `.eml` files in `$OFFICER_USER_ROOT/Gmail/emails` and report the final total.
