Use your local email program and download them?

Or use fetchmail for the same purpose and save them in a maildir or mbox to access later?

Gmail does support the normal POP and IMAP email protocols, after all. :)

You could use imapsync for transferring the accounts. If you have a VPS
running somewhere that would speed up transfer and you don't have to
keep your local pc running.

Usage is quite simple:
imapsync --host1 imap.truc.org --user1 foo --password1 secret1 --host2 imap.trac.org --user2 bar --password2 secret2
