Once you understand what Google is doing, I don't think it's covertly
stealing or controlling your data. Computers are meant to make things
easier for you, so I don't have a problem with my email client
highlighting what I think I want to read first, identifying what's spam
or deleting messages I don't' want around any more. I'm sure there are
other email providers out there which don't have these features.
BTW, this has nothing to do with DOS or Unix. I'm running Thunderbird on
Linux right now, and it behaves the same as it does on Windows or my
iPhone's email client.

If we want it deleted, we want it gone and not keep coming back. And if we
want to keep it, for it to stay put and not keep disappearing.
This is where it all gets so frustrating, covert stealing of control of
your material or resources.
We might not have liked DOS or Unix, but at least We were masters of all we
surveyed, until it got a glitch of course.

Google tries to automatically determine if a message is important to you
or not and adds the important label to a message. It's supposed to get
smarter about this over time. You can also train Google a bit by marking
messages as important or unimportant manually. You can read more about
the important folder at https://support.google.com/mail/answer/186531?hl=en

I've never had this problem. However, check in your trash to see if
they are there. Also, I don't know about the Mac but on my Windows PC
their is a folder called important. A lot of things which I delete are
still in that folder. I don't know where this comes from but it's
helped me a few times.

Hello Denise, I've never had this problem of my account deleting emails
from
the inbox I wonder if there is somebody that is possibly gotten into your
account and you possibly might need to do a password change?

Hello all,
I have a couple of gmail accounts including this one. Both accounts are
set up on my phone, ipad, and mac. Last Friday, I looked in the inbox to
my second account and all e-mails prior to May 8 were gone from the
phone,
the ipad, and the mac. I did not delete these messages. But had them
there
because they related to a project I worked on, and wanted to have access
to them. there were about 30 in number. I even noticed missing e-mails
I
had moved from the inbox into a folder I created on the mac were
missing.
i did nothing to delete these messages. My settings within gmail are set
to never delete. Has anyone ever had this problem? Did you know what
causes such a thing to happen?
Thanks. Any explanation would be appreciated.
