Apple Mail with Gmail Account (IMAP): Moving Mails from inbox to folders fails I have a Gmail account (gmail 1), and if I'm moving email from Inbox to an IMAP folder, the email disappears from Inbox and after changing the folder and going back to Inbox the moved mail is back in my Inbox.

I just created a new Gmail account (gmail 2) and tried it with this account. The behaviour is like expected: moved emails don't re-appear in their old folder.

Now, I don't know how to fix this. I've checked the account settings from both accounts, the new one and the old one and I can't find a settings difference to fix this problem.

I made a short 30sec movie about the problem.
The following solved the issue for me:

Gmail Settings:


Inbox → Categories:
Select only Primary
Inbox → Importance markers:
No marker
Inbox → Filtered mail:
Override filters
Forwarding and POP/IMAP → IMAP Access:
When I mark a message in IMAP as deleted: Auto-Expunge off
When a message is marked as deleted and expunged from the last visible IMAP folder: Move the message to the Trash
