Title: GMail not deleting mails - help!
Post by: MrIan on June 20, 2025, 02:03:04 pm

I've setup Gmail accounts, but when I delete an email it doesn't delete on server and pops back up a few seconds later.  All other functions work normally.  Mails are successfully delete from Outlook, but who wants to use that instead of Aquamail ;-)

TIA

Hello MrIan,

This can happen when the name of the deleted folder has changed on the server. Aqua Mail is still looking for the old name of the folder and cannot perform the action of deleting the messages.

To fix this issue go to Settings > Manage accounts > Select your account > Folders >
Tap "Deleted" and select "Sync with Deleted" (this may already be the chosen option, re-select it if so) > Refresh the account.
