IMAP Gmail With Mail Problem

[tt888]

I'm a newbie to the mac world and recently I'm having this problem that when I delete messages in gmail via mail app, it just downloads the the deleted messages again. What's going on and how do I correct this? And I'm using leopard.

Take a look at the enclosed link, hope this helps you

There is another thread in the forums about Gmail and Mail.app, someone there sugested taking a look to this link:

There are few extra steps to properly setup Gmail IMAP and Mail.app. I was having the same probles you describe here but after following the steps in this tutorial all is working ok for me.

BTW, google has posted now 2 sets of instruction for setting up IMAP one for 10.4.X and other one specific to Leopard...

Hope this helps

Cheers

I've given up trying to use Gmail's IMAP service with Mail.app for this exact problem. I also had some messages not showing up (not because of the Junk filter). Whereas I had no problems in Thunderbird on OS X.

Sucked poop is what it did.
