My thunderbird configuration file in appdata/roaming is huge -- 8 GB. I was trying to clean out old stuff and deleted all the messages in Archives. Then I emptied the trash. BIG MISTAKE! all my gmail accounts now have an empty inbox. I'm not sure if when I delete a message from inbox, if it also deletes it from Archives. Why does TBird store my gmail inbox in archives? My configuration file is still 8GB, so maybe they are still out there somewhere.

I just did a properties on one of the gmail inboxes, and it was still huge. After I started to post this message, it had shrunk, so I think my configuration file will continue to shrink It takes a while. So my main problem is why do the gmail emails go to archive and do the messages get deleted from archives when I delete them from the inbox and then empty the trash.

Koristno?

Perhaps read this document which explains the oddities of gmail as an IMAP provider. I think it answers your questions. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmail#w_understanding-gmail-labels-and-thunderbird-folders
