Hi Jacky

Good, imap is a bit tricky, it'll either work or it won't,
at least in windows 7, the hard work is taken away as the
e-mail set-up wizard searches the website for the settings.
Hope it all goes ok for you.

Adrien

Hi Adrian

I appear to have solved my Gmail problem, finally! (smile).
I checked the
Pop box on the Google page, and created the same account in
Outlook but
using Pop instead of Imap.  I've nothing against Imap,
except I couldn't
quite get it right in Outlook.  When I changed things, it
worked, and I've
created a folder and rule to make that particular group's
messages go
straight into it like my other subscriptions.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Jacky

I am wondering if you have the imap account in outlook, I
use both, I
receive all my messages in my main inbox in outlook but also
have the imap
account set up so I can easily check my spam, it could be
the port numbers
you have slightly wrong. Strange one. Sorry you aren't too
well. Hope it is
nothing serious.

Adrien

Hi Adrian

I do receive them in Outlook, but they appear in an Inbox
folder in a
different tree called Gmail which, by default, is closed.
When I open it,
then the Gmail folders are revealed pertaining to that
account.  My problem
is deleting them in Outlook, I can't.  I need to log into my
Gmail account
on the web, check every bloody box for each message, then
delete.  I just
wish I didn't have to do that, but it's the only way I can
get round it.

What I have said remains strange in that I subscribed to the
Eyes-Free
mailing list using my BT account, but they all seem to come
in under my
Gmail account which I didn't even have at the time.    Being
quite honest
about it, I don't keep that well, so my time on the PC per
day is limited
for fiddling around and persuading something to do what I
want.

Ho-hum, never mind! (smile).


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Jacky

You are definitely going about it the hard way, I receive
all my mail in my
outlook inbox no problem, not sure why you can't receive the
messages.
Something must be wrong in the settings somewhere.

Hi Mo and Andrew

Thanks to your input both, I have now got rid of my back-log
of messages.
It's a bit of a long way round for a shortcut, but I checked
all the
messages, then deleted them in the way you suggested Andrew.
Now my various
folders in Outlook are cleaned out.  I still wish I could
have them come
into my regular Inbox like all my other subscriptions are
set to do, since I
have rules assigned so each list has its own folder.  But,
hey, that's got
rid of what I don't need for now, and I'll just keep on top
of the traffic
on the Gmail page now I know what happens.

Thanks guys, great stuff.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Jackie.

I'm not sure if i'm understanding you correctly, so please
bare with me. 
I too can't seem to find an option to mark all the messages
via the web, it
must be a GMail bug. i'd hit control A to select all in the
list view in
outlook, and hit delete. The difference between pop and imap
essentially is
that pop was designed to download mail from a server to your
computer, then
the mail would either be deleted from the server or remain
there for ever
regardless if you deleted it on your PC, unless you
expressly set server
options manually. Imap is a lot more versitile. 
any actions you carry out on your PC are replicated in
realtime to your mail
on the server, its a lot more efficient. so in other words,
unless you set
outlook to keep a copy of mail on the server its deleted or
moved to trash.
you can also access all your folders via imap more
efficiently, copy mail
between folders, etc so the long and short of it is you've
made an excellent
choice by using imap. Also, if you use other devices and set
your mail up
via imap, any actions carried out on your other devices are
also
automatically carried out on your PC because it'll
syncronise. I hope this
all makes sense? what did you have trouble with when
deleting using outlook?
to speed things up, i'm more than happy to give you a call
at your
convenience so we can discuss this, just drop me a note off
list.

all the best,

Mo.
