Hi group,
So it seems like I have royally screwed up my outlook. Here are my issues: 1. I set up my outlook from gmail and at one point it stopped importing all my old messages. I tried to delete the profile and it didn't work so I set up a new gmail account which worked. How do I get rid of the old inbox that no longer receives messages? Its the one that is under personal folders? 2. My outlook is automatically deleting emails. Sometimes if I'm fast enough I can read them but other times they are just deleting. I have no idea where the emails are going or how to make it stop. I'm an unsaavy outlook-gmail user and am a bit confused about this whole IMAP/ POP3 issue. Can I retrieve the messages I've lost? Is it best if I start over on the outlook process, if so how? Any insight would be great! Thanks, Marlene |

If the address you posted from is your real address you have now been added
to the spammers lists. gmail is configured in Outlook as an IMAP account usually If you set up a new Profile, as apposed to copying the old, your old data files would not be available unless you added them. So is your current Gmail acount shown in the outlook tree view folders list as a Gmail folder (Imap) or as Personal folders (pop3)? http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...n&answer=13273 http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...n&answer=78799 Missing mail; You probably have a particular View set wrote in message ...

I have posted for years using a valid address in both the body and header fields and have had no particular problem with spam. Regards, Leonard Agoado |

plus gmail has a very good antispam filter. I posted with a gmail address
years ago and yes, it gets a lot of spam but very little hits my inbox. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

Before we can give you any ideas on what might be happening, we need to know
how you configured the account - as imap or pop3. Are you using antispam filters? Did you try using advanced find to search the mail folders for the missing mail? -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com. wrote in message ...

Any insight would be great! Thanks, Marlene- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Hello! Thanks for all your responses! The original account I set up was in POP3 form but the 2nd one I set up was in IMAP. When I went to gmail.com I figuired out that my email went to a junk email folder automatically after being in my inbox folder. Not sure how to fix that. As for antispam filters, I only have the ones that gmail set up automatically. Something tells me that I incorrectly deleted the 1st profile which is why its still under the Personal Folders tree. The 2nd gmail account that actually works is under its own gmail tree. I hope thats enough color to help. If not, please let me know what else I should provide you with! Thanks! |
