Working with my gmail account.

I have an application that's been running for years.

It calls Pop3.DeleteMessages() and shortly thereafter Pop3.Disconnect().
The messages are marked for deletion by DeleteMessages(); I know because Pop3.InboxMessageCount is reduced.

Disconnect() return true (success).

But the messages remain visible in the Inbox in GMail.

I can delete the messages using GMail.

From our documentation:
https://afterlogic.com/mailbee-net/docs/#getting_started_with_imap_pop3.html#GmailIssues
Gmail does not allow the client to delete e-mail from the mailbox. Delete commands are simply ignored.
You can, however, change When messages are accessed with POP setting to automatically delete or archive the e-mails you downloaded. This way Pop3.DownloadEntireMessage will also have effect of Pop3.DeleteMessage.

Regards,
Alex
