I know I saw a topic about this awhile back, but I can't seem to find it. I used to be able to delete mail on my epic and it would also delete if I went to a desktop computer. Now, after I restored a backup it won't delete from my actual Gmail account if that makes sense.
It now seems to follow the protocols of IMAP, vs the POP meathod if that makes sense? Did we ever find a solution to this?

Try clearing the data in the app. Also check to make sure it is set to delete off server too.

Where is the setting to delete off server? I've been looking up and down for it

That was only in the native android email app. In the Gmail app do you have it set for autosync?

Great! My guess is the restored data did not digest well.

Not sure how it happened, but for most of my contacts I have about 3 identical google profiles for...I noticed this when I go to send a text...I get about 3 cell #s, 3 home #s, etc for each person...wondering if there is something I'm missing to clear out? Thanks in advance, just mildly annoying

Might be a stupid question but..... have you checked your google account? Are they on there multiple times too?
Do you have more than one gmail account linked with your android phone? If so, do you also have these contacts on separate accounts?
Go to your contacts app and hit the menu button and check your display options too. See if something weird's going on there.
Or you can delete the data for your contacts through the Application manager and let it resync in case data was corrupted some how.

I actually get the same thing but I'm heavily modded and just live with it. For me I'm on 1.1 of Srf and running the honeycomb theme of amosher. Also sync across two main mail accounts with my mandatory Gmail account not being one of them.

Clear the google services framework data.
First, I must apologize for posting in the wrong forum...meant to put in Q&A...sorry. And thanks for the suggestions...I cleared the data in the contacts storage, clear google services framework...reset the sync...unfortunately nothing worked...just weird...shows like 3 linked google accts under every contact...I can delete them manually, but upon reboot, they come right back...oh well, guess I'll just deal with it too...thanks again!

Go to the sync settings and uncheck the Contacts option on all but one of them and then reset it again.
Login to Gmail on a PC and try merging duplicates under contacts/more actions.
Nicenice...yours was the winner...thank you! & thanks to all who responded, I appreciate it

Happened to me once.. I've always had my contacts on gmail, but I once used a different back up app that restored my contacts, suddenly, I had two gmail entries for every person.. both on my phone and in gmail.. solution was to go on gmail on a comp and delete dup contacts

This happens to me on 4G as well. There are times I send e-mails from it and people never receive them and there are times I never get them. Then sometimes it works perfect. I switched to a 3rd party e-mail app. It never fails me. I am using Kaiten but its a paid app. Try K9 on the Market. You can make it black themed and it works well for many.

I had this prob few days back, I turned syncing off, then back on. I then reboot the phone and bam! It started working again.
P.S. Under Applications>All. I also cleared data/cache.

Settings->Accounts and Sync. On apps, select All, and choose Gmail, clear cache and data on that one.

I have lost some faith in G-Mail. I don't understand why I can get a 3rd party app like K9, add my G-Mail account to that, and people receive the e-mails faster than using G-Mail itself. If someone can explain why this is, I would appreciate it.

I think it depends on many factors, we all have different apps, different roms, kernels, and also different qualiies of reception.

Can you be a bit more clear? I'm understanding bits and pieces... what I explained over clearing the cache was your answer to your question previous to your last post.

My email has way to much saved data on my phone. Its the email app, and it causing my internal storage to get low. I checked out app size and the cache is huge, is there a easier way to delete old mail thats saved in the email app? Im using cm7.

are you using a gmail account with your built-in email app?
Yeah i am. I dont need both right?

No, use the Gmail app for Gmail, use the Email app for all other acounts (like exchange/work accounts).

Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
the reason for this is bc the gmail app pulls it from google's servers, doesn't actually save the email on your phone, just lets you look at it
I'm not sure about CM7 but I use Touchdown for exchange email. My email sync is set 2 weeks so it doesnt use up space. I think with the built in app you can do the same.
When I delete a new Gmail, occasionally it still says I have 1 unread inbox and priority inbox message unread until I logon my computer to delete it. Only had it with this phone.

It may not be pushing correctly. If you're in edge, it might take a while for changes to be effective. If on 4g or wifi make sure you have data sync on

Have you done a restore from a NANDdroid backup? If so, you need to go into applications and clear data from Gmail. After you do that it will sync correctly.

I know we are in an early stage of development but just curious if there is a way to get a Gmail 4.2.
The whole zoomed out email view is awesome and it's probably only thing I'm missing. I will appreciate if you have any guidance.

For some reason on stock AT&T when going into Settings > Application Manager (Select ALL) I see two Gmail apps. One is Gmail 1.0 and the other is Gmail 4.1.2.
Anyone else notice this? Any idea why there are two of them and if both need to be deleted in order to install Gmail 4.2?

If you are rooted then use a File Manager like "Root Explorer" & go into /system/app & rename gmail.apk to gmail.apk.bak. Then copy the 4.2 gmail apk to /system/app and lastly change the permission (4.2 gmail.apk) to RW-R--R--.

The app itself looks pretty much like the old version, you can just zoom all the way out so you can see the entire email. I'll post a picture in a little bit

Don't remove Gmail 1.0. It's useful label, which is responsible for the opening Gmail mails with Gmail by default.
Without Gmail 1.0 my phone is restarting by itself each time when I try to set the default access to the mails.
