What if I don't want an email client? I just want a headless program that downloads my emails. They can be kept on a NAS that is backed up offsite and keeps the emails searchable. I want this to happen even if I don't happen to open an email client on a desktop at my home for months.

That's why imap-backup is useful.

Lol that’s an email client! Not all email clients have a manual UI.
