a Gmail Account.
Most people who want to use multiple clients for a gmail account
either do it w/ browser webmail or imap, but some like to do it w/
some pop fandango.

a Gmail account has a number of ways of viewing its email. There's
webmail viewed w/ a device's browser. There's POP which pop can
function to download to the client and then delete what was downloaded
and there's pop which can function to download to the client and NOT
delete was what downloaded. And there's IMAP, or in this case 'gmail' imap.

We are missing some of the details of how you handle your gmail account
w/ your two devices.

My gmail account is not a POP account it is an IMAP account.
What is puzzling is that this perpetual returning popup of the three
emails only shows up on the Android 'phone.

If I'm understanding that the msg/s are deleted at the gmail server,
then I would assume that they are no longer accessible to the android.
It would seem that if you delete (previously IMAP dl/ed) the msg/s at
the android, it wouldn't be able to dl them again.

The three messages have never reappeared on thunderbird on Linux Mint
but refuse to die on the Xaiomi-Android cellphone.
I am wondering if Xaiomi's modifications may be responsible?
This is about a Gmail Account.
I access this from my Mint-powered computer and my Android 'phone.
On the cellphone there were three messages received from Quora at then of 2020.
I have not been able to delete them.
If I do they pop up again BUT only on the Xiaomi Android-powered cellphone.
From webmail on the computer, I deleted every message both in or out.
No difference. They pop up again but only on the 'phone.
It needs fresh minds.
Hence this post.

When you type "They pop up again but only on the 'phone.", where are
they popping up?? In the 'inbox' or in the 'Trash'??
If they are in the 'Trash' on the phone, is there a 'Compact Folders' function or similar??
(Just a thought ..... In my SeaMonkey Browser Suite, when I delete
e-mails from the Inbox, they are not really deleted, they are marked as deleted and disappear from the 'Inbox' listing and appear listed under
the 'Trash' Folder ..... but aren't really deleted until I 'Empty Trash'
and then 'Compact Folders'.)

One wonders what it is that you use on the phone? The Gmail app? Or
something from Xiaomi? Something else? What?
What if you just wipe data in whatever app you're using on the Xiaomi
phone? May have to add your account again though. Or do that, remove
the Gmail account from the phone and re-add it?

Is the android system showing msgs in the imap trash folder while the others are
not?
