I know that if you set up a new Google Email account with various
"labels" first and then a new local IMAP email client (like Thunderbird)
second, when you connect for the first time your "Labeled" Google mail
will show up/ download in Thunderbird as Folders with the same name as
the labels. All sorted so to speak.
Does anyone know if you do it the other way around... if you have a
Tbird POP account with various folders on your local machine tied to
your domain name being served up by some ISP and you change the domain
named server mail to be/ to forward to a Google email account, when they
sync for the first time will all your Thunderbird POP folders be synced/
uploaded on to Gmail's server as "Labels" archived or otherwise?
I suspect not because of the difference between POP and IMAP but what I
am REALLY curious to know is once the connection is made and an IMAP
Google acct. has been configed in Tbird, will I be able to simply drag
the folders on the client machine from the POP local Tbird client
folders to the local Tbird's Google IMAP account folders and then will
Google server see them/ upload/ sync them and accept them as labeled
perhaps archived mail?
Has anyone done this before?
