I use Gmail, and star/flog some items as more urgent ones to deal with. In MM I'm wanting to use the built-in 'Flagged' smart folder, but I often get multiple copies of apparently the same email shown in it. When I expand out its sub-folders (which includes [Gmail]/Starred, [Gmail]/Important and INBOX), I see what's happening: each of these is showing the message as flagged. These all appear to be the exact same message (same timestamps etc.) but turning on the UID column I see that each one has a different UID. (I'm running build 3900, but this has been the case on earlier builds too.)

To me this isn't expected behaviour, but I don't want to claim it's a bug, since I don't understand what the different UIDs imply, and how they got to be applied. Can anyone help?

I don't remember including both [Gmail]/Starred and [Gmail]/Important sub-folders under Flagged, but presumably this happens because MM is being smart and listing any folder that contains any flagged items. But if so, then I might need a way of ignoring the [Gmail]/Starred if it's always going to pick up starred items from another folder as well ..?

Yours rather confusedly,
