[QUOTE="Italy Paul, post: 1477219, member: 285527"] Thanks for the tips. I should give a bit of background info. We bought the MBP because our Win7 laptop would take forever when using Outlook 2007 synced to Gmail with IMAP. I am not sure if it was the slow ADSL connection, (we live in the country side, with max 3 mbps in download) or it was the old Win 7 laptop that made it slow. However when I first set up Apple mail and began importing 13000 emails, it took 2 days, the MBP became unresponsive. We decided to start with a clean slate and created a new work email account with only a few emails and the rest remained in old@work email account, on gmail servers. I would prefer to be able to search the old@work account from apple mail but do not want to sync the account as all mail addressed to old@work is forwarded direct to new@work account. Can I set up the old@work account, import all the mails and not have to sync the account again? Any ideas? Does anyone use multiple google apps accounts with Apple mail, if so is your mail responsive? [/QUOTE]
