Gray folder is messing up my Gmail account

I'm sorry if I wrote what is bad. I don't know how to explain it.

For some reason, I have 'two' Inbox for my gmail account. The regular "inbox" folder and another gray listed as "[gmail]" folder How can I get rid of this? When I look at the thunderbird, it says I have 6 new messages. However, 3 new messages in the 'Inbox' is the same as three new messages in 'all messages'.

Why Thunderbird behave this way?

I don't want this "[gmail]" folder I want to just my Inbox, drafts, views, spam, trash, and important files.

Please see the answer in your other thread.

  • DROID: If I delete my main GMAIL account, it will mess up my phone?

    I really need to change my G-Mail address, when I go to remove it so that I can make a new account main G-Mail, a warning appears saying: you sure you want to delete this account? Remove will remove also all the messages, contacts and other data from the phone. Move forward? If I 'delete account', will damage my phone somehow, or delete the apps that I need, etc etc?

    It will be the same that make a reset of data factory.  You will lose also all paid apps that you have purchased.  You would have to pay back for all that you do not want to install again.  Your contacts in the old Gmail account will not port to the new account.  You can export an and import them into the other, though.
    I think that the best route would be to add the other Gmail account on your phone as a secondary account.  You can stop your current account notifications and this way you will not lose anything at all.  You can use the secondary Gmail account as your main account without actually changing.  Would not give you what you need?  I hope this helps.

  • I use Thunderbird on multiple computers to the same gmail account but I have a laptop with little memory, so I need this laptop only to download a few files

    I use Thunderbird on multiple computers to the same gmail account. I have a small laptop with very little memory and it runs out of disk space when it downloads all my folders. I would only download some of my file on the laptop, but keep all the folder on my other computers because they do not have problems with disk space. When I unsubscribe records in 'manage folder subscriptions' then he cancels his subscription on all my computers, not just the laptop. When I go to 'Properties' on the folder and sets 'retention individual police' these settings are not applied at all. What can I do?

    All of the messages in each folder will appear in your message list. But this does not mean all the bodies of messages are downloaded, if you have properly configured the parameters of the disk. If what I described above stuck in your settings then Message body should be downloaded only 'on demand' when you click on each message.

    To confirm this install the addon glodaquilla, which has a column "on the disk" that indicates if a message is on the disk. If you want, after you have installed the addon set Thunderbird to work offline, so it does not download message body when you click in the list of messages.

  • Password not recognized for the new Gmail account

    My gmail account ID / password is not recognized by Thunderbird. It worked, but somehow it has suddenly stopped working (not able to receive or send emails and just make an hourglass whenever I select any folder in the account).

    Some other details:

    . I use Thunderbird 38 (could the upgrade caused the problem?).
    . I tried to remove and re-add the account. It connects fine, but does not recognize the username/password.
    . I did some Google 2-step of checking is turned off.
    . I deleted the Google Contacts.
    . I checked that access for less secure applications is disabled in Google (even though I believe that Thunderbird 38 should not require this).

    I followed all the steps I find Google search, including the https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmailsite. Nothing seems to help.

    I'm up a Creek. I like Thunderbird (use it for multiple e-mail accounts), but hair pulling try that it works - and it takes too long. Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    account15:
    ENTRANTS: account15, (imap) imap.googlemail.com:993, SSL, OAuth2
    OUTBOUND: smtp.googlemail.com:587, SSL, passwordCleartext, true

    You will need to set OAuth2 authentication for the SMTP server as well.

  • with firefox is connected to my gmail account it consumes much more data on my account of measurement data than just using gmail directly online?

    I have limited wifi data. I exceptionally voluminous data to be used and cannot identify the cause. I find that I keep seeing on the bottom line of firefox something like: "loading 500 5678 email." However, I don't, of course a lot of emails saved. Could this be a cause of excess data usage?

    The question here is, a full synchronization actually occurred, or there is still ongoing... Or is Thunderbird re download all your emails again and again.

    There the question is one of these things what you want anyway?

    So right click on the gmail account in the folder tree and select settings.
    Composition and addressing uncheck "keep messages for this account on this computer. This will mean that the information used to build summary lists to download. The rest will be downloaded only when you click on an email to see. It is the most stingy bandwidth setting.

    Make a right click the Gmail account again and this time choose to subscribe. Deselect all messages and other files that you don't really want to see. Important is one that I have clear as they are in the Inbox anyway. This will reduce more downloads and duplicates in all mail will be not downloaded nor will be unsubscribed folders.

  • How to remove records 'system' on every gmail account?

    I understand these system folders, I am referring to what may be called local folders. For example, "Inbox". In particular, I am willing to remove the "Sent" folders I have several accounts gmail and Thunderbird, some act differently from others. Each gmail account fills a "[Gmail]" folder with several subfolders constantly. I assume these are remote folders on the gmail server. I can remove all the people, but do not want to. Some of my Gmail accounts in addition to the mandatory "Inbox" folder have a file "Sent" without no right-click option delete and some do not have the "Sent" folder at all. I don't want the "Sent" folder to show on each of them, as it is already featured in my subfolders "[Gmail]". I just don't have ready access to the folder "Sent" system and won't watch it. How can I get rid of him?

    Folder - subscribe

    Uncheck the files you don't want to see in Thunderbird.

    Press Alt or F10, where the menu bar is hidden.

  • Problem with the mail app / Gmail account to reply to an email

    Hi all

    whenever I try to send a response to an email in my Gmail on my Palm Pre2 (webOS 2.1) email account would be in a folder called "Outbox" and nothing is sent - I use the email app, I don't use a gmail.com. The "Outbox" folder is not synchronized with the IMAP server.

    How can I fix it / is this a bug?

    hmarcy,

    Have you tried to remove the gmail account and add it again? If this does not work, try to verify the settings that you use for your gmail account.

    1. go to the e-mail application

    2. press on the upper left corner which should say "email".

    3. Select 'Preferences and accounts '.

    4. Select 'Google' under accounts

    5 scroll down to "change connection settings.

    6. Select "Manual Configuration".

    7. make sure that the incoming mail server says 'imap.gmail.com', that username is correct "username @gmail.com", retype your password, encryption is set to 'SSL', port is set to '993. '

    "8 make sure that the outgoing mail server says" smtp.gmail.com, ' 'use authentication' is set on "on", again to surey our user name and password, encryption is set to 'SSL', port is set to "465".

    I hope this helps.

  • Firefox cannot sign out of hotmail, yahoo and gmail account

    When you want to log out after you're done working on your yahoo, hotmail and gmail account, it is not possible to close the session. I had been facing this problem for three days now.

    This problem may be caused by corrupted cookies.

    Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Tools > Options > advanced > network > storage (Cache) offline: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    If clearing cookies doesn't help, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.

    Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite - journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox profile folder where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.

  • My Gmail account does not send. Sometimes it won't send or receive.

    My g mail account will not send.  Sometimes it won't send or receive.  I get messages such as

    Can't send or receive messages for the Gmail account (1). Header download for the 'Inbox' folder did not complete. Your server suddenly put an end to the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

    [Original title: gayle]

    Someone else on this forum suggested trying to 587 as outgoing as a substitute of 465 port number.  This seems to have helped with the outgoing mail.  Although the 'crazy' remained in the Outbox and a message says that it has not been sent, in fact he did send

    I always get all sorts of pop-up messages, but my main problem seems to be resolved.  I'll be back if no, or with any other question remains.  I'll check it now.

  • Windows 8 Mail App - for Gmail accounts, how to remove archive button?

    I have some Gmail accounts, I'm trying to make it work in the application Mail in Windows 8.  The problem is that if I press the button Delete in the top right of the app, it sends my e-mail message to the trash in Gmail, where he get permanently deleted after 30 days.  I want to remove the button to simply remove the element from its current location and "archive" instead (not go in the trash).  I need this so that I can keep the search of old messages history.

    I checked in my Gmail settings (on their site) and on the tab "transfer and POP/IMAP", I already have ' auto clear on ' and 'Archive' message when a message is marked as deleted.

    Plus, I saw that other support posts here who say the default by pressing the button Delete for them is the exact opposite of what I see (they say archives instead of cops).  I am completely confused about it since that's what I want, but don't see anything else to try to get it.

    Can someone please give some insight on how to get this working?  I have my iPad Mail app works very well in this regard.  But this question, it is difficult to make the switch from my Surface Pro.

    I found a solution!

    It's pretty simple.

    1. go in Gmail settings - labels

    On the right side of the screen, you can select records show in imap.

    2. remove the ckeckmark then in bin/basket

    Now, the trash will not be displayed in imap (as the Win 8 messaging application) e-mail applications.

    3. now, go to the windows mail application 8. If you still see a Bin or Trash, folder synchronization (right-click - option to the left)

    4. open the charms bar (drag in from the right side of the screen or move your mouse cursor to the top right of the screen and then down). Go to settings - accounts - choose your gmail account. Scroll to the bottom of the settings panel

    You will now see an option of folder in which you want to use as trash! See attached picture

    5. choose [Gmail] \All Mail as the basket

    Fact! Now when you delete an email it will be archived.

    Impossible to believe there is even a solution, I couldn't find one on the web, he found by chance. Hope this will help a lot of people. Now if only Microsoft and Google that would place in their official faq...

  • When I start Firefox, the default email is gmail. I have several gmail accounts. How can I change the default gmail to another gmail account?

    I have 4 gmail accounts (two for me, one for wife and a common email). The default value to "send a link" default settings for my wife's gmail account. I would like to change the default value to our gmail spouse. I need instructions on how to do it.

    Hmm, I think the different built-in options for email link are neutral and used special account would be one that is currently logged on (or if you get a login page, it can show one that was last saved in). This is not what you see?
