hello,

i’m using MM to move thousands of messages from one account to another (both google), with “Move to Mailbox…”.

the intention is to remove the messages from the source account, but the messages keep reappearing. Labels are removed, so they show up in All Mail.

is this on purpose? or?

This sounds like a known form of breakage at Google. It's related to their message de-duplication tricks and to the way they assemble "All Mail." I have not tested it, but it might work to first move a message to a non-GMail account, empty the trash and sync the GMail account, then move it to the other GMail account. That way, GMail will not continuously have a copy of that exact message to treat as the "real" one to which all other references point.
