IMPORTANT

Always set the mailboxes correctly, by for example selecting "Gmail/Drafts" and going to "Mailbox" menu then "Use This Mailbox For" then "Drafts". This will then move the Gmail drafts to be under the Drafts list in your Mail.app client.

Do likewise for Sent, Trash, and Junk.

Took me hours to find this out, as otherwise they are all bunched together at the bottom of the mailboxes!

Youtube search for "AskTheMacGuyDotCom" video, very good.

Hi, I just watched your video about setting up GMAIL on mac mail. btw it really helped but I just have one question. When starting up an account it asks for your full name. If I was to put My notebook rather than my full name would the name that appears on my emails be 'my notebook' or would it recognize my real full name using my g mail account?

would appreciate an answer.
