I don't imap gmail, because I don't like their folder layout, and they won't let me change it. So I pop it, and sort my mail locally. I do not use gmail at all for anything legal or sensitive. They keep copies of everything, they say as a 'convenience' to the uѕer, but mainly to keep their butts covered with the governments of China and the United States. To get around the gmail problem of not sending what they think is a copy, I use a folder-hook to make a copy of mail sent and place the copy in the folder I'm working from, or the catch-all 'Sent' folder. Occasionally, I will actually log on to their site and delete everything I can see. One day later, moѕt 'conversations' will remain. Think about it. -- Dave
