@dominic curious it prepends “[Imap]” to it! But as mentioned I would strongly recommend leaving it set to “All Mail”. You've been warned 😬

@dominic it's not so much that it's moved there, it's just that it's literally showing you “All Mail”.

And whilst you can change the Archive folder in settings, I'd be careful as that's not how Gmail is intended to work, and it may have side effects (I certainly haven't tested it!). That screen's really for fixing locations that couldn't be automatically mapped by Big Mail (foreign languages, etc).

@dominic Gmail's weird and doesn't have a traditional Archive folder. Instead it has what it calls "All Mail" and that includes things you've sent too. Big Mail calls it Archive in some places, but really it's the All Mail folder.

@dominic if you choose "Move" in Big Mail on a Gmail account, you get the behaviour of a folder (e.g. it removes it from one place and puts it in another), but it's still appears like a label on Gmail's web interface (Gmail labels are really just folders with shared message IDs anyways)

@Cykelero omg yes this is exactly what I was thinking, thank you!

I may have just made this up, but what's the name of that Mac utility that does useful text transformations like uppercase, base64 decode/encode, diffing, etc etc?

@schalksernst haha I'm used to all sorts of possible combinations now 🥲

(Thanks for the extra info!)

@schalksernst hmm that is a bit odd, i'd expect that combo to work okay. Let me try replicate my end and if I can't I'll give you another ping.

Thanks!

@schalksernst sorry last question: if you search specifically for “text/html” does the content-type for that also say utf-8? is the transfer-encoding also 8bit?

@schalksernst if you can access the message via the providers interface and click “Show Original / Raw Message” (or something like that) and search for "content-type", what value do you see there? What does “charset” say?

@dominic Yup, it's just disabled in TestFlight builds till it's a bit more finished.

@schalksernst Yeah agreed. This will be coming as part of customising mailboxes (so think what you can do with Smartboxes, but for mailboxes/labels).

@schalksernst that's awesome to hear!

Once we're out of the heavy-handed troubleshooting phase I can dial logging back and things will be a lot more snappy.

Latest build (33) adds default sender option (Settings > Composing). Replies should always default from the account they were received on. Let me know if you're not seeing that.

I've also added account nicknames/descriptions too :-)
