Re: Mail vs. Gmail...?

Version of OS X? The way Mail has handled GMail accounts has changed over the 
versions.

Is Gmail set to be accessed as an IMAP account? <> wrote:

they contain. Occasionally if I close and reopen them repeatedly the content 
eventually appears, but not very often. They display fine in the web interface, 
just not in Mail.

The web interface issues apply regardless of whether I use Chrome or Safari.

Any ideas will be gratefully received. Thanks in advance!

Mail vs. Gmail...?

Hi there: In the past month or so, I've begun having some problems with 
Mail and its interaction with my Gmail account:

   - When I launch Mail, it brings in the messages from Gmail as usual but 
   after I open them or delete them, they don't get marked as opened or 
   deleted in the Gmail web interface. If I select the "unread" ones there and 
   mark them as read, they switch back to unread the next time I go in. Mail 
   will show them as read, but the web interface doesn't. This only applies to 
   messages received on or after the 4th of August.
   - The items in the Spam folder in the web interface don't get brought 
   across to Mail at all (with very few exceptions). Not that I care so much 
   about my spam collection, but I want to see what's there in case something 
   got flagged that shouldn't have.
   - Some messages, but not all, refuse to display their content when I 
   open them in Mail--I just get the header and a blank screen, so I have no
