The mail itself seems to be in a long series of numbered plain text files like mail[123]. Most of these files are unreadable in notepad, though I suspect there may be many plain text emails saved among them. This isn't quite what I really wanted from gmail. I'd rather just have a scheduled "Download zip with all emails" setting. But this is not bad; I can always zip it myself, but then, being on C:, it's getting imaged daily/monthly anyway.
