I filter "All Mail" out of the sync'ed mailboxes and pretend it doesn't exist. All local mail deletion happens by moving messages to "Trash", and then letting Gmail do the rest. Eventually (30-day default?) Gmail deletes the message from Trash, and that deletion propagates down to my local installation. Roundabout, but it seems works, and preserves the point of Gmail's Trash thing as I understand it: protecting you from accidental deletions. > On 11/14, Oswald Buddenhagen wrote: >> On Thu, Nov 14, 2013 at 06:18:23PM +0400, Ilya Kuzmich wrote: >> > Also, syncing gmail-trash first is important. >> > It does kills all local copies of deleted mail. >> > >> not sure what you mean without thinking much about it, but i found that >> gmail offers three different configuration options for the IMAP >> delete/expunge behavior. i suppose one of them is standards-compliant >> even in the strict sense, so mbsync would work without special >> considerations for the gmail trash. somebody cares to experiment? >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> DreamFactory - Open Source REST & JSON Services for HTML5 & Native Apps >> OAuth, Users, Roles, SQL, NoSQL, BLOB Storage and External API Access >> Free app hosting.
