Archieve-folder in Mail Apple for macOS

[zippoapple]

Hi,

I have added "IMAP" of GMail in Apple Mail for iOS and macOS.
For iOS I can choose "all mail" as Archieve.
For macOS I cannot choose " all mail" as Archieve.

How can that and what should I do?

What version of macOS are you using?

On my Ventura Mac at Mail>Settings>Accounts, with the Gmail account and the "Mailbox Behaviors" tab selected, "Archive Mailbox:" is set to "[Gmail/All Mail]" and it works fine.

The setting for the iCloud account there is "Archive" and it works.

I use macOS Ventura on my Macbook.

I hereby send three photos. 1st and 2nd photos are from iOS. 3rd photo is from macOS. On iOS I can select "all emails" in the Archives folder. With macOS I don't see "all emails".

Check the settings at the Gmail webmail portal under "Labels" and see if "Show in IMAP" is checked for All Mail.

Yes, "All Mail" has long been enabled in IMAP. Otherwise it won't show up in iOS.

When you choose the "[Gmail]" option does an Archive folder up in your email folders for Gmail? Does Archiving a message send it there?

Yes, when I want to move a message to Archive I get an error message. Cannot move to [Gmail].

Definitely strange not having the proper choice showing.

Have you tried removing the account and then re-adding it?
