I am using Outlook 2016 to upload all my email messages from my Gmail account so that I can read them offline. I am running Windows 10.
My problem is that the majority of messages are uploaded to both my 'Inbox' folder and the 'Important' folder. I found that if I deleted the mail from my 'important' folder this deleted the corresponding mail in the 'inbox' folder. I got round this by moving the messages from the 'important' folder to the 'inbox' and after a few seconds the duplications were deleted automatically leaving one message in the 'inbox'.
Now what is happening is that the messages that were in the 'important' folder are being uploaded again into that folder, and again after moving....and again....and again....
As an aside why does everyone think their messages are important. This happens so often that the 'boy crying wolf' syndrome has kicked in and I give such messages no more importance than ordinary messages.
Anybody any ideas on the former?
