I have several thousand messages in my in box, but I don't find working
with my email to be any harder in IOS 7 then it was with IOS 6. My
unread messages still all get sorted to the top of my in box so dealing
with them is really no different than it was in IOS 6. I assume the
starred folder would work the same way. Since it seems that you're using
IMAP, you're probably seeing messages that you starred in a different
email client that got marked as such on the IMAP server.
The Gmail app is mostly accessible, at least it was the last time I took
it for a spin. I do recall editing messages was a bit tricky. since
you'll be accessing the same messages on your IMAP server that you're
accessing with the native email client, I wouldn't expect it would help
at all.
How are you searching through your email now? If you're using Gmail's
web interface then I wouldn't think archiving your email would change
this at all. I haven't used the search feature in the mail client on the
iPhone, but it looks like you need to be in the folder you want to
search, so if you move to your Archives folder then I would assume it
would work.

Hi,
Since the update to ios7, I find I have, on average, 1500 messages in my
inbox at any time. I seem to have lost the ability to confine the inbox to the
50 most recent messages. Now, for some reason I don't like to delete mail,
instead, I have always relied of Google to keep my mail, past and present,
safely in the cloud for me, but how to do this now?
My questions are therefore,
1, If I choose to archive all my mail, will I sti,l be able to search in the
same way should I choose to do so?
2. I see there is a gmail app, has anyone tried this? Will it improve my
situation, offer me more options etc, or will it confuse things even more?
Lastly, I have a tendency to put special messages, for future action, in my
"starred" folder: however, when I went into that folder yesterday, I found it
filled with ancient mails, mails I had before I even had an iPhone! and all my carefully
stored, starrred messages are either lost or buried amidst these ancient messages. I am
in a mess re my mail since the ios7 update and so, any help would be much appreciated!
Sandy.
