Exporting Roundcube emails to Gmail manually involves a multi-step process that can be time-consuming and technical. First, users need to access Roundcube and download their emails in **.eml** or **.mbox** format, depending on what's available. Once downloaded, the challenge is importing these emails into Gmail, which doesn't directly support **.eml** uploads. Users typically need to configure a desktop email client like Thunderbird or Outlook, set up both the Roundcube and Gmail accounts via IMAP, and then drag-and-drop emails from one account to another. This process requires careful configuration, consumes time, and risks data loss if not done correctly. 

To simplify and secure the migration, the MCD IMAP Backup Tool offers an efficient alternative. This tool allows users to log into their Roundcube account via IMAP and directly export emails into Gmail without needing to manually configure third-party email clients. It supports batch migration, retains folder structure, and ensures data integrity throughout the transfer. With user-friendly functionality and high compatibility, the MCD IMAP Backup Tool is ideal for anyone looking to seamlessly export Roundcube emails to Gmail with minimal effort and maximum reliability.
