Two e-mail programs simultaneously
Hello again
You wrote: Another option with Gmail is to use IMAP. In this case the mail programs mirror the web mail. Any changes made in either PC or the web get reflected in the others next time you synch. This includes deleting messages or moving between folders. This is what I want. I have now tried a third time to do the settings for the IMAP in the Gmail as well as in the Windows mail. I have started a new account in the Gmail instead of trying to change the old one and made it the standard one. There the famous drop curtain actually existed and I could click for IMAP. The rest of the settings are as follows. Unfortunately 800 new messages come again. The second time today. So my concern this time is only the first stationary computer with Windows mail. The Gmail account - Settings -Forwarding and POP/IMAP a 1. Status: POP is activated for all mails that has arrived since 2009-10-28 Enable POP for all mail Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on Disable POP (Nothing else is clicked) 2. When messages are fetched with POP – erase G mails copy 3 Imap has been activated The settings in the Windows mail a Under server: The server for incoming e mail is an IMAP – server Incoming e-mail (IMAP): Pop.gmail.com Outgoing e-mail (smtp): smtp.gmail.com Under advanced: Outgoing e-mail (smtp): 25 Incoming e-mail (IMAP): 995 Under IMAP “the pathway of the toot..”: ???? So my questions are 1. Are the settings right in the Windows mail? The ports? 2. What shall I do with the pathway of the root ?? (in amateurish translation) 3. How can I get rid of the 1600 new messages? Messages that I probably erased over time from Windows mail but not from Gmail 4. Is the following setting correct? “When messages are fetched with POP – erase G mails copy” If someone would just give a comment I will e-mail you a Schwarzwald cake, or at least be very thankful! and thanks everyone else too for good ideas.
