Hi–I am having the same problem. Sent emails don’t show up on Blackberry. No sent folder anywhere. I have “hide sent messages” set to “no”. Has anyone figured this out?

Gracie,

I don’t have that problem with the application. I also use Google Sync and it sync both my gmail app and bb contacts.

Hi can someone help me, my gmail on my blackberry was working fine. Until it gave me the option to synchronize, and i pressed yes. Anyway everytime i send a message it doesn’t show up on my blackberry- how do i put it like before to show up?
it doesn’t let me remove, or add filters or labels? and i have hide sent messages set to no??? i’ve tried everything..
Thanks.

Push Gmail as an additional email address:
Pros: immediate, I can access the same contact list as my primary (work) email address, easier to manage, all new emails come in separately and are not filed or lost
Cons: All messages also show up in my primary email inbox intermingled with my work emails!

Gmail App:
Pros: emails are separate from my primary email address
Cons: slower, can’t access contact list or add contacts, emails are filed by subject and are sometimes slow to update or emails get lost in the shuffle unless you expand all to check for new emails
