Setting up Gmail account
OK I've set up my account per the instructions on Google's site. However I can't configure one of the recommended IMAP client settings. It says to set OE to save drafts to the [Gmail]/Drafts folder but I can't seem to find where to do that. Can someone please let me know where that setting is? I've checked in the options and properties of the IMAP account and still don't see.
Here's the link for the recommended settings so you can see for yourself. Thanks in advance, Wy

That's what I'm trying to do. Where in OE do I make that setting change?

Setting up Gmail account
I never used Gmail, so bear with me. This is /not/ what you want, so do the
opposite. Open GMAIL in the mailboxes drawer to reveal the Gmail mailboxes.

I'm using OE, but never used Gmail. The instructions are for a Gmail

Setting up Gmail account
Looks like you set it up as an IMAP account, not a POP3 account, yes?

I've checked in the options and properties of the IMAP account and still don't see. I haven't used an IMAP account for a long time. My recollection is that after defining a new IMAP account that there will be an IMAP tab when you look at the properties for the e-mail account you defined in OE. As I recall, you go to the IMAP tab and enter the root folder's name. FYI: Do NOT use HTML when posting to newsgroups. Configure your newsreader to use plain text.
