Gmail IMAP "sent mail"

Would anyone know how to keep sent messages in "sent" folder?
Using Gmail IMAP my messages get sent but can't find them on my phone after send.
On line all show in my Gmail account.
go to the options of the messaging, "message" tab and check the second one "keep copies of sent items in sent folder"
Got it selected but no messages stay in any "sent" folder
In Outlook it works like this, don't know if its the same with IMAP, but worth a shot
Menu > Tools > Manage Folders
Then select the foders you want to sync

+1 Was just going to say this when I saw your reply.
Thats how I set mine on gmail & IMAP.
Just note you cant choose 'manage folders' while it is connecting / downloading / sending mail so wait for it to finish first

Deleting gmail account

So I'm trying to delete/readd my gmail account because push won't work consistently. I don't want to wipe the phone. I have, in the past, cleared gmail, google apps and gmail storage but google apps has no data to clear. Clearing gmail & gmail storage doesn't do it. It just clears my e-mails and then resyncs... How do I completely remove?
Go to settings, accounts & sync and enter a new google account. Then tap and hold on the other gmail account to remove it.

Can't be done because the original is the primary... Google won't let you remove it.
Why not create another Gmail account and temporarily sync to it and then switch back?
as noted... you cant delete the original and i need to

I have the similar question.
I don't like to use my gmail account by another than then my other mail accounts.
I deletet the settings like in the post above, but when I enter the gmail app, under accounts, the account is still listed.
I want to delete it - how can I?
thx!
Do i have to be logged into my account to delete it??
1. Settings -> Applications ->Manage Applications ->
2. Go into each of the following apps and clear data. Before you exit the app manager you want to make sure each says 0(zero)k storage.
1. Gmail
2. Gmail Storage
3. Google Apps
4. Calendar
5. Calendar Storage

[Q] epic Calander Problems

Ok i searched thru the search and havent found my answer. I set up gmail calander and inside it set up some events to follow, like Us Holidays and sport teams calanders. It set up nicely on my laptop, but when i sync on my phone, they show up in the list of connected calanders but are now in the actual calander. Am i doing something wrong?, like looking at the samsung calander and not the Gmail calander. I am on Froyo Dk28 rooted aswell. HELP!!

I didn't fully catch your question, but If I understand correctly:
have you tried going to the regular calendar?: open app drawer, select Calendar. Then Menu, Settings, Calendars
Here you can check or uncheck the calendars you want to show; the list should include all of your calendars, including "other" calendars you added through GCal. After you do that, hit the back button, go to Calendar Sync and make sure the calendar is checked to sync (if you want that). I'm pretty sure most of the other 3rd party calendar apps either use the same method or pull from these settings.
If it's not showing up in the list, uncheck the Calendar Sync from your google account. Then goto Settings->Applications and clear application data for "Calendar Storage" (not "Calendar"). Then recheck the calendar Sync to resync, that should work.
that didnt work, anyone else got any ideas?? Please very annoying not having the holidays on the phone

that fix helped me with my calendar sync issue after upgrading to froyo eb13, thanks!
Had same issue. Clearing Calenar and Sync storage fixed it right up for me. Didn't even need to uncheck the calendars.

same issue here... clearing the cache actually made me lose some of the calendars I had synced and now can't get them back...
Haven't been able to get a calender my wife has shared with me since upgrading at all.
Before I upgraded, I forgot to save the phone calendar since it doesn't sync to google. I used MyBackup Root before I upgraded to save the all calendars. So, I restored the calendar in MyBackup Root and it took all my events from all the calendars it backed up and smushed them into the main calendar. I didn't catch it before it synced to google and it made a mess. I exported the calendar to try to fix it and deleted the calendar to find that the export is corrupted...DOH!!!
Anyone else have a way to solve this issue with MyBackup and putting all calendars into one?

OMG THANK YOU! Lost a bunch of appointments when I went to DK28, and this fixed it!
You know i dont think i read things correctly the 1st time, either that or i should have tried it a 2nd time because by GEORGE IT WORKED. AWESOME!!
Had all my calendars except 1 before i tried the 'fix'... then did the fix...and lost all my calendars...
i dunno what i did but i got one of them back... 1! .... but still not all of them.. later im going to try to replace the calendar apk file

Took me a minute to find the setting, on my Epic 2.2.1 its Settings > Applications > Manage > All > Calendar Storage
WOW. Clearing the cache. I sort of felt it was the cache that was corrupt, but did not know the 'ALL' tab on Apps existed!!
THANKS A TON!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was missing some events/appointments in EB13 calendar. Unchecking sync, then clearing data in "calendar storage" then rechecking sync did the trick! Thank you!!

Google calander driving me nuts

I know at least one other person has experienced this as I found this
When I add an appointment in the calendar, I always get this message:
"New event
Local calendar does not sync with Google calendar.
If you want to sync with Google, please add Google account"
Then a checkbox for "Go to account and sync"
and another: "Never show again"
Now, I have a Google account so not sure what I need to add.

I also know what the problem seems to be. It appears I have a local "My calendar" and a Googlemail one. I know this as I have a drop down option in each new appointment from which I can choose. I cannot however find a way to make the Googlemail one the default or delete the "My calendar" one.
This means if I forget to choose I do not sync with my Googlemail account nor my home PC. Anyone got any ideas ?
Screeny attached. (Personal info edited out)
Just open calendar, press settings and choose the calendar you want...
You can disable 'my calendar' also from there

That is the settings page. You can effectively select which calendar/s you want to display but you cannot disable them they are still running but the appointment in that calendar are not shown when you open the calendar app. and even if the "My calendar" is de-selected when you try to create a new appointment it still defaults to "my Calendar". It cannot be removed or disabled and you cannot make "Googlemail" the default.
Use a rom with all that samsung rubbish removed! Simples!

I'm not a fan of the default calendar input etc, so I use Calengoo and in that I can select which calendar it defaults to and displays, but it costs a few dollars. Maybe try something like Jorte. I just preferred the way they worked over the stock calendar.
I had this problem but with some ROM update it went away. What ROM version are you using?
Mine always and with any ron defaults to Google.
Once selected it stays default
You can try to erase all settings and set it up again
It doesn't do that on my version (2.3.4 JVP), the default calendar I select in the settings is the one it uses.
Maybe try clearing the data for the calendar by going to
settings->Applications->Manage Applications->tab All
And selecting Calendar storage and doing a clear data.
Maybe that will clear the problem (but you will have to reconfigure
your calendar, but if everything is synced to google it should be ok)

Again thanks. I have done that as well. It only started after the 2.3.3 update (official) I can't understand why there is a "My Calendar" as well as the Googlemail one, just do not see the point.
Just to clarify how it works for me, I have all of the calendars enabled in the settings (including the phone only "My Calendar". That just indicates that they should be displayed on the calendar.
When I add a new event (tap to create) one of the entry fields is the calendar I want to create the event in. Once I set that (and actually create an event, if you cancel it doesn't stick) it automatically defaults to that calendar for subsequent events that I create.
That is how to set the default calendar being used.
