Dear all,
I am a long-term and very happy user of Thunderbird.
Some time ago, I realised that although using Shift+Del to permanently delete emails does remove them from Gmail's Inbox (back at Gmail's mail servers), they are still present on Gmail's servers in the All Mail folder. After a number of years of deleting using Shift+Del, my Gmail account got quite full, unnecessarily! I have largely dealt with this by deleting surplus messages from the All Mail folder and my usage (GB) of the Gmail account is much more sensible.
However, this morning I have discoverd that the same issue exists when moving (Move To) emails to a Local folder - the messages remain back at Gmail in the All Mail folder.
Is this a problem really with Thunderbird or Gmail (or maybe a bit of both), and what is the best way forward?
Thank you!
