dennisgorelikDo you know how to import old Gmail emails into new Gmail account?
Surprisingly, it is hard to do.
It looks like my old archive kind of stuck in my old Gmail account.
15 GB of emails accumulated over 14 years (since 2007-3-31).
When in new Gmail account I try:
"Settings" - "Accounts and Import" - "Import mail and contacts"
I end up with:
~~~~~~~~~~~
Error
This account cannot be imported right now. Please try again later.

Update [2020-01-16]: Gmail POP3 import works ... slowly
