Hey Ricardo, Thanks so much for letting me know I am not the only one this happened to. Did your filters start working again, as mine didn't and I had to create them in mac mail. Yes, I have my Gmail set up to imap on the iPhone, I hate pop as I am also a go daddy email user and their pop was awful so I switched to imap so everything would sync across devices. Not sure why I never could get messages to properly filter on the iPhone and it does get annoying when I travel. On Dec 13, 2013, at 3:10 AM, Ricardo Walker <rwalker...@gmail.com> wrote:
