| May 5, 2013 at 21:39 | comment | added | Old Pro | Gmail considers it a feature that when you delete a message it goes into the trash and is kept there for 30 days before being actually deleted. This allows you to retrieve deleted messages for a while but does eventually get them deleted. AFAIK this is not configurable. As for messages lingering more than 30 days, be sure you are using IMAP, and that you are not actually archiving messages rather than deleting them. By default, most Gmail clients on OS X archive mail when you hit the trashcan button and you need to move messages to the trash folder instead to really delete them. | |

| Apr 22, 2013 at 15:28 | comment | added | bmike♦ | Are you using mail on OS X, iOS, or some other OS? It's likely a mis-configuration of the settings you chose when setting up those two accounts (or a bad choice of mail protocols). POP mail is notorious for making multiple copies of each message and when you delete one, the other copies do not get deleted. Gmail has a whole host of other problems with how it handles multiple copies of one mail message, so you might need to ask this twice unless you're looking for a general answer how to set up email so that you don't get multiple copies. | |
