Yeah, the ironic thing is that this seems to have happened because Apple made a big effort to make Mail work better with gmail. So they had good intentions, but just didn't quite pull it off smoothly. If I were CEO of Apple I would've delayed the public release of Mavericks until these issues were fixed, but I'm not, and perhaps that's why. :)
It also seems as if there's a strong correlation between these issues and people with a huge number of emails. The people reporting the biggest problems seem to have hundreds of thousands of emails. I have quite a few, but it's probably tens of thousands not hundreds of thousands. Those who are reporting delays in syncing, does it work better if you set Mail to check for new emails every minute? I'd be happy to swap my gmail accounts to iCloud, but I'd probably have to then pay for more iCloud storage and the effort of copying emails from one account to another isn't so straight forward. The copying process takes a long time in the background, and it's possible to lose emails if you're not careful. So while it's possible and I'd be happy with the result, I'd prefer to just keep things as they are if that's possible. So, once I understand a little more about making gmail and Mail play nice together I'll test Mavericks on my MacBook Air. If it goes well then I'll install it on my iMac. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
