[MlMt] Google / Repeating Re-Sync

[Robert M. Münch]

I noticed that MM repeatedly re-syncs parts of my folders, for example, sent messages.

When looking into the folder, I'm missing the last 3 months of messages coming in step-by-step. A side effect is that Google then throttles my mailbox.

However, I'm wondering why MM seems to lose track of messages' states or if something on Google's side triggers MM re-sync.

I'm unsure if I'm using the whole IMAP subscription thing correctly. Here is how I set it up:

* [Gmail]
	* +All Mail
	* +Chats
	* +Drafts
	* +Entwürfe
	* Important
	* +Papierkorb
	* +Sent Mail
	* +Spam
	* Starred
	* +Trash
* +dont-track
* +donttrack
* +Drafts
* Gesendet
* +INBOX
* +Inquire
* Invitation
* +Notes
* OnePageCRM
* +remember

All mailboxes have the *server* flag set and the ones with a + the client flag.

I'm irritated because I see *Gmail/Sent Mail* and *Gesendet*, the German word. There are also *Gmail/All Mail* and *INBOX* and *Gmail/Drafts* and *Drafts*.

However, that might be an unfortunate leftover from a mailbox import many years ago. It might make sense to clean things up directly in Gmail.

Does anybody have any hints for me on how to find the root cause of the re-syncing and how to fix it?
