Avi, I experienced something very similar. I was reading and deleting emails from my Gmail inbox in MailMate but the messages remained in the Inbox, marked as read, when viewed in the Gmail web app. What I hadn't noticed was that my Gmail Trash mailbox was offline (just that one mailbox)! After Synchronizing the Trash, my mailboxes started operating as expected again.
I hope the solution to your issue is as easy. -Jim On Thu, Mar 26, 2026, at 3:58 PM, Henry Seiden wrote: > Avi, > > I use a single Gmail account which has the current G-Server running on it > (recently updated paid account), though it has long been in existence > previously as a free account.
