Did Something Just Change with BIS 3.2?

Guys/Gals,

OK, I just noticed something and it may have been like this for a while, but I'm not sure.

I have my Gmail address set up on BIS 3.2 and have my calendar and contacts syncing fine (thank goodness Google Sync is gone!).

Anyway, today when I hit the menu button while in my email folder, I noticed that there are more options than usual such as add star, archive, label, filter. Just like in Gmail on my PC. I got all excited thinking that I'd be able to see my folders....and in a way I can...meaning they're listed, but when I select one, it's empty and doesn't show the messages I'd saved in there (labeled folders) on my PC.

Anyone else notice this? I was hoping that Gmail was getting more integrated and more like the PC experience, but now I'm confused :confused:

TIA

Not that I know of, John. I have used my Bold for almost a year now.

When I heard that BIS 3.2 had been upgraded to allow for syncing of calendars, I deleted Google Sync and my email address, and set it up again as I always have (used the settings on T-Mobile's website...just had to enter my Gmail address and password). This was about a month or so ago by the way.

Screen shot if possible.

I only get:

* Calendar
* Contacts
* Deleted Items

Sorry, have no idea how to do a screen shot.

When I'm in my Gmail mail icon/folder showing my list of emails, I hit the menu button and get these options:

PHEW!

Yes, that's the "enhanced gmail plugin" at work.

That is so weird considering I didn't select this option at anytime. So how is it different otherwise to what I had before? Wondering if it's 'good' or 'bad'....
