The problem is with how Gmail manages email, using Labels instead of folders. As with sent items, this works fine for most account types but has unintended consequences with Gmail accounts. Outlook 2010 introduced the ability to save Deleted items on the IMAP server. Please note: in current versions of Outlook, users cannot choose where to store deleted items. You can't subscribe to all folders on your desktop computer and only the Inbox on your tablet or laptop. Note that the subscribed folder list is stored on the server and will apply to all devices you access using IMAP. This duplicates all messages in the other folders and will double the size of your data file. I do not recommend subscribing to the /All Mail folder. Select a folder and click the Subscribe or Unsubscribe button to change it. Click on the Query button to list all folders or type a few letters in the Query field then click Query to display only folders containing those letters.įolders displayed with a small envelope icon are subscribed, those without the envelope are visible only using your server's web access. Right click on any folder in your IMAP account and choose IMAP folders. You can control what folders are visible in your IMAP clients by subscribing or unsubscribing from IMAP folders.

Note: you may need to restart Outlook for the folder to start syncing. If the folder is not selected, switching to the All Mail folder should start the sync process.Right-click on the folder and choose Process Marked Headers.
