Re: isync config for gmail?

[Ilya K. <ily...@gm...>]

I've ended up with channel per folder approach.
Also, syncing gmail-trash first is important.
It does kills all local copies of deleted mail.

Sync All
Expunge Both

IMAPStore gmail-remote
Host imap.gmail.com
User ily...@gm...
Pass %%PASSWORD_HERE%%
UseIMAPS yes
RequireSSL yes
CertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt

MaildirStore gmail-local
Path ~/.mail/
Inbox ~/.mail/INBOX

Channel gmail-inbox
Master ":gmail-remote:INBOX"
Slave ":gmail-local:INBOX"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-lists
Master ":gmail-remote:lists"
Slave ":gmail-local:lists"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-archive
Master ":gmail-remote:[Gmail]/All Mail"
Slave ":gmail-local:archive"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-drafts
Master ":gmail-remote:[Gmail]/Drafts"
Slave ":gmail-local:drafts"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-sent
Master ":gmail-remote:[Gmail]/Sent Mail"
Slave ":gmail-local:sent"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-flagged
Master ":gmail-remote:[Gmail]/Starred"
Slave ":gmail-local:flagged"
Create Both
SyncState *

Channel gmail-trash
Master ":gmail-remote:[Gmail]/Trash"
Slave ":gmail-local:trash"
Create Both
SyncState *

Group gmail
Channel gmail-trash
Channel gmail-inbox
Channel gmail-lists
Channel gmail-drafts
Channel gmail-sent
Channel gmail-flagged
Channel gmail-archive
