I tried to send an email using my iphone and macbook. But then the message I sent goes to the inbox in iPhone..... but they are in the sent folder in macbook..

cause youre using pop. .... Change your acount to IMAP and everything will be happy....

Sweet.. at first I thought IMAP is automatic setup..
Actually I just read gmail website, I need to choose "other" when i add the account. Thanks!!

i am having this problem all of the sudden with both of my gmail accounts on my iphone. 3.0 3GS. so i deleted both accounts from the iphone and recreated them still happening. any mail i send from the iphone comes back as new mail in the inbox, but it is being sent. is this a gmail problem? i am setup as imap (confirmed by looking in the settings). help.

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Always BCC Myself -- turn that off.

It's a global Mail setting so deleting and recreating the accounts wouldn't change it. Try that.
