IMAPSize is a portable freeware Windows application that allows you to quickly and efficiently manage your IMAP mail accounts. It is not another mail client. The main purpose of IMAPSize is to locate space consuming folders and allow you to manage them, hence putting your storage quota under control. To accomplish this task IMAPSize offers a variety of useful (and some unique) operations.

I've used it with clients to help shrink their email sizes. First, it shows you which folders are taking up the most space. Then you can load those folders and use advanced search to find large files, files from specific dates, etc, and quickly delete those emails. You can even batch download all emails that match a certain search - for example, download all emails from 2013 onto your computer and then delete them off your IMAP server. Outlook is much happier now.
Essential : Versatile and powerful. Unfortunately does not work under linux.

For the double authorization gmail account - setup app passwords for IMAPSize. https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
