Thunderbird Archive Folder - Duplicating emails?

fler alternativ

It seems as thought the Thunderbird "Archive" folder is actually reflecting my Gmail "All Mail" folder (which includes mail w/o regard to labels). However, is the Archive folder duplicating these emails on my PC, i.e. is there a copy of each Inbox email, etc? This would double the size it takes up on my PC. Or is it simply acting like the "All Mail" folder online - reflecting all emails.

Vald lösning

The folder now showing as "Archive" in the Thunderbird folder pane IS the Gmail 'All Mail' folder. This is the fallout from a deliberate change in TB146. The change is supposed to be reverted in the next release, so you can simply wait for the fix.

Alternatively you may unsubscribe from 'All Mail'. It is redundant, and just adds to the size of the profile. To unsubscribe select the Gmail account in the folder pane. From the main menu bar: File (Alt-F) - Subscribe uncheck 'All Mail'

After unsubscribing it seems as though the folder is still there. Is it still taking up space and if so can I remove it?

I take that back - now the "Archive" folder is gone. Thanks!
