I am syncing with a gmail account. I am currently finding that email in Gmail:"All Mail" that has been archived on the gmail client side, i.e. the inbox tag has been removed, is not syncing to my local maildir. The relevant sections of my mbsyncrc file are below.

I have tried to fix this by playing around with the settings, but without luck. Is this normal behavior?

    ma suspicion is that you have a stale ~/.mail/gmail2/archive/.mbsyncstate from a previous setup.

    you can add -D to the command line to see what's going on.
