Experimenting with Gmail and and my Gmail IMAP account. I really hate the ALL Mail in Gmail, especially now.

So I backed up copies of my mail files for IMAP, then deleted all the files in All Mail to see what would happen.

Everything wound up in trash, including all Inbox, Important, Starred and Sent mail. Thinking this is like POP3 files, I'll just copy them back over, no problem. So I deleted them, closed and reopened. Empty, good.

So I copy them back over into the IMAP folder and reopen. As soon as I access them, the files (synching with Gmail server I reckon) all disappear again. So I turned off check messages on start up and timed.

Retried, and same issue - as soon as you access the folder, it synchs and they disappear again.

So, the question is, "Is there a way to restore these files so that the Gmail server doesn't make them disappear as soon as it sinks up.

Thx
Chuck
