Are you getting double emails in Opera when you configure your Gmail account in Opera using the IMAP format? If so, here is the fix:


1. Open Opera
2. Up top, go to MAIL>IMAP Folders
3. Unsubscribe (uncheck) the following folders:
1. [Gmail]/All Mail
2. [Gmail]/Sent Mail

Click OK. You should be good to go, but if not, then hit your “Check/Send” button so that it will reset itself.

Just so you know, when using Gmail’s SMTP servers, a copy of the message automatically goes to the sent folder.

    After unchecking and clicking the Check/Send, nothing changed. The previous unchecked ones still be checked. How should I do?

    One more question, when I delete uncomplete fetched message (Header download only), the message in the server do not delete so the message is back again in Opera mail. What ‘s wrong with my IMAP?

  11. 11. Ian Brown Says:

    watchara,

    Answer#1: Try restarting Opera.

    Answer#2: Try downloading the entire message and THEN delete it.

    Thanks for stopping by!

    It is very different on 10.61 ok here goes friend had to help me…

    Get to you mail by checking on menu or if you do not see it goto the 1st icon on the left the door with arrow click it. Now you should see menu at the very top and right under is a button will say note, mail, book marks, etc click that and click mail, if you see an option on the menu button at says Mail and Chat Accounts click that.

    goto where you see it says Mail for yourname@whoever.com right below u see a folder says All Mail right click it and then click Properties then you can change it….

    Thanks for you input, Stevie. Glad you got it fixed. I guess there is more than one way to do it, because the way I describe it still works for me, and I have Opera 10.61 as well. Thanks for posting an alternative, though!
