Hi, I use Windows Mail and for some reason I now have Google Mail and associated folders appearing on iPhone telling me I have 6k unread messages. the only change I can think of is that before my mail account was all pop3/smtp and it seems to have switched to IMAP. (Its a blueyonder account). Is there anyway I can sort this so I just see my Inbox, Sent and Trash as I previously did? I think the introduction of Outlook 2010 might also be a factor but Ive since deleted this off my desktop as it too contained the Gmail folders.

An email account cant change spontaneously from a POP to IMAP or from IMAP to POP with an email client without direct user interaction.
If you are using Windows Mail to access the account on your PC, how did you create the account with Windows Mail - as a POP or IMAP account?
Did you manually create the account with the iPhones Mail app? If so, how did you create the account? If you used the Gmail account preset, the account was created as an IMAP account.
