Remove folder "ARCHIVE" - IMAP.

Account type: IMAP
How to delete a folder: ARCHIVE
All deleted messages are moved to this folder.
After deletion from the ARCHIVE folder, they are moved to the trash.

This folder is not an ARCHIVE FOLDER.

This is a folder next to the IMAP mailbox.

  • Gmail/Google accounts often have deleted items moved to Archive folders on the phone, so that's what I see in my client's Outlook. That is a real folder but in Google/Gmail a label. I would not try to remove it but you can maybe hide it in the IMAP settings on the browser.

      Hmmm,

      PC version.
      Only IMAP has this (...) folder, which unnecessarily increases the size of the mailbox.
