I have an old IMAP email account which I cannot connect to any more. I would like to keep all the emails locally. Currently I keep getting login to IMAP sever failed (as I no longer have an account on the server). I have tried to move the emails to a local folder but it will only copy one at a time. Any attempt to move more than one email causes me to get a message about login failed. Is there an easier way to do this or do I have to move all emails one by one (All 5000 of them).

Did you have synchronization enabled for the account? In other words, did you download an offline copy of your messages on the server to your local disk?
