I recently had to change my email address to a gmail account. I want to continue to use Tb but don't want copies kept on the Gmail account. Is there a way to delete the messages in Gmail without deleting them in Tb.

Chosen solution

There are two ways that I am aware of: - set the account as a POP account, downloading to PC and deleting from server. - set as IMAP account, COPY messages to local folder and then delete from account.
