  1. Windows Mail not working with Gmail using IMAP settings


    HiI have two gmail accounts set up under Windows Mail - one was set up under the "Gmail" option and works fine. The other was set up using the "Other" option and IMAP as I need to be able to use a different sender name for the second one. Until last week these were both working fine however the account set up under the IMAP option is no longer receiving or is able to send emails It is connected to my Gmail account as I can see the folders listed. In addition, if I try and sync this account it does not pull any emails from Gmail - I have tried setting this up on my mobile phone using the same

    Google Adds IMAP Support to GMail

    GMail has gained IMAP support, one of the most requested features for Google's web-based e-mail service. If you log into your GMail account and head to "settings", the tab for "Forwarding and POP" should now read "Forwarding and POP/IMAP." If it doesn’t, be patient, Google will be rolling out the new IMAP features across the service over the next few days. With IMAP you can access your mail via your desktop client, read mail, make changes and have those changes mirrored by any other client accessing the account. If you access your mail from multiple machines, IMAP allows them all to stay in sync. To enable IMAP in GMail just head to the settings page and change your access from POP to IMAP.

    Configuring IMAP Thunderbird/gmail to work like POP?

    Apologizing in advance for a question that invites a "why would you want to do that?" response.

    But I'd like my Thunderbird, working with my gmail, configured for IMAP, to function as it did when I had it configured for POP.

    What I'd like is that:

    • My Thunderbird has all my gmail messages, that go back 10+ years
    • When I fire up Thunderbird, it gets my "new" messages - those that have arrived since the last time I opened Thunderbird
    • The action of Thunderbird "getting" or syncing new messages, causes gmail to archive those messages
    • Thunderbird won't always get caught up in trying to sync the nearly 300,000 messages I have in gmail, most of which I have captured elsewhere in Thunderbird folders
    I realize that this isn't exactly what IMAP is set up to do; I'd had Thunderbird set up for POP for a long time, but when I was trying to get it to send messages, there were server problems that I solved by switching to IMAP.

    Perhaps there is a way to tell gmail to only sync the all mail for messages after a certain date? How do I set up for the type of behavior I want?
