Sync sent email between Gmail and Opalstack

verdeandrea

Hello Opalstack Community!

I have a mailbox and private email address set up on my Opalstack account.
I use the gmail client (web and app) to receive and send email (POP3 and SMPT) using that address.
Everything is working correctly. The only problem is that emails sent from gmail are not synchronized with my mailbox on opalstack.
Do you know if there is any way to achieve this? Has anyone been able to do this before?
I suspect you have to set up some IMAP connection but honestly, I have no experience with this. Can you guys help me out or at least point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!

verdeandrea Gmail can only fetch email messages from remote mail servers via POP3. Since there is no way to connect to your Opalstack mailbox from Gmail via IMAP, any messages that you send from your private email address through the Gmail client will be saved in your Gmail "Sent" folder, but there is no way to make them appear in the "Sent" folder of your Opalstck mailbox automatically.

Hello verdeandrea. If you use a third party e-mail client your sent e-mails will be synchronized between GMail and Opalstack. In my case I use Thunderbird in desktop and K-9 in mobile, both them configured to use SMTP of my Google account. After send e-mail thought them, the sent message is saved in Sent folder and synchronized in both services.
