**(195) Why are all messages in the archive folder of Gmail?**
The Gmail server stores all messages, except the messages in the draft, sent, trash and spam messages folder in the all messages' folder (=archive folder).
FairEmail is an email client, which basically displays what is on the email server, and therefore it will show these messages too.
To be clear: FairEmail does not store the messages in the archive folder, unless you explicitly archive a message.
This has advantages, though, because it makes searching in all messages easier.

<p>Note that it isnt a good idea to automatically delete recent messages, especially not for the spam folder because there might be legitimate messages in the spam folder. There is a button or menu item (depending on the screen size) in the top action bar/menu of the trash and spam folder to empty the folder. This way there is at least a visual check.</p>
<p>Auto deletion will be done on a full sync only. For the inboxes, you can use <em>Force sync</em> in the three-dots overflow menu of the start screen. For other folders, you can long press the folder in the folder list of the account (<em>not</em> the navigation menu), and select <em>Synchronize now</em> in the pop-up menu. You can also pull down the messages list of any folder to sync it, and repeat this again within 30 seconds for a full sync.</p>
