POP and iMap are both email account types. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed Barnes" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, November 17, 2012 7:59 PM Subject: RE: Questions regarding email setup on iPhone 4S for new subscriber.
Hi guys, it's not a gmail account so I'm not sure if this actually applies, it's a pop account and not an imap account. Thoughts?

It's true that for IMAP, the default behavior in Gmail when you delete a message is to remove all of the labels except for the trash label. these messages will get deleted from the Gmail server after 60 days, I think. Note, these messages don't need to be synced to your iPhone. I'm not sure if POP behaves any differently though.
