E-mail archive browser for gmail takeout files (.mbox) (piefed.ca)

I have started moving away from gmail and have started exporting my older e-mails via the takeout option. This generates .mbox files. I don't really use any e-mail clients on my computer and do most of my e-mailing on my phone, so I don't have a way of viewing/searching those files.

Therefore I was wondering if there is any selfhosted option for some kind of e-mail archive/viewer with decent search function that anyone can recommend? Specifically something capable of handling those .mbox files. I found a few projects that sounded promising, but they seemed either dead, weren't setup for selfhosting or could only connect directly to the mailboxes. So I thought I'd ask here if anyone has experience with this, maybe some recommendations?

Also open to alternative approaches what to do with those files. I just would like to delete these mails from gmail entirely, but that requires I can search them with as much ease as I can on gmail with a local option.

Thanks!

No, but the founder naively praised Trump for an executive branch nomination he thought would play out in his favor. I don't think it was a month later when Trump made it obvious he was just going to sell his entire administration to the big powerful tech bros. The Proton founder should have known better and just looked like an idiot, or worse a supporter, for praising Trump.
