Hello Vinh,

I prefer to talk on the list because it might help
other users. Tell me if you disagree.

> I'll try to make a simple case to make it easier to recap.

Ok.

> Could it be because in Germany we'll having googlemail instead of gmail?

I don't think so, gmail is special anyway.
We'll know sooner with your tests.

Ok.
I made more tests. I found this behavior:

1) First gm_1 to gm_2 is OK with inbox

2) I delete gm_2/inbox
   messages go to gm_2/Trash

3) Second gm_1 to gm_2 is KO with inbox
   gm_1/inbox messages are no longer stored 
   in gm_2/inbox even if imapsync did it successfuly.

4) I empty gm_2/Trash

5) Third gm_1 to gm_2 is OK with inbox
   gm_1/inbox messages are in gm_2/inbox

gmail store messages in a virtual space, no problem.
Folders are just tags even with the special trash.
If a message is already transmited then gmail
says it isn't in the folder, accept it BUT
does not tag it for the destination folder.
A bug for gmail.

I don't have time to report to google now, 
I'm not a gmail user, only for imapsync help. 
I'll be happy if someone do it. You can
include my address or this list in the discussion.
