Default Solved: Outlook 2010 - googlemail - synchronizing folders doesn't work

Hello,



I had to set up Win7 again, afterwards the Office 2010 32bit. After setting up my googlemail accout (IMAP), trying both the automatic and the manual version, I had to face the problem that receiving the emails worked, but not the synchronization of the folders. The time increases and after a few minutes the connection is interrupted.
I search the internet and found that for a few people it helped to go to the folders tab, then imap-folders, and unsubscribe to all which are not necessary. However, this didn't work for me, I was able to reduce the subscribed folders to "googlemail", "sent", "trash" and "junk", but it didn't help.

Does anyone have a clue what to do here?

Ok, I solved it. Just in case anyone else has the same problem:

Quote:
Go to File > Options
Select 'Advanced' from the tabs on the left
Click the 'Send/Receive...' button
Highlight 'All Accounts' (or whatever group contains your gmail account) and click 'Edit...'
Select the account from the list on the left
Under 'Receive mail items', select 'Download headers for subscribed folders' (or, use the 'custom behavior' option and make sure to only download headers)
Click 'OK', 'Close', 'OK'

Send/Receive and you should be set.
Thanks goes to the original poster found here.
