Deleted emails keep appearing

Sup people. I have an annoying problem with opera Email. Every time I permanently delete an email it just comes right back in as unread. How do I solve this problem. I use Gmail if thats any help

Do you use IMAP or POP for GMail? If you're using POP, do you have (in Opera's mail account settings) "leave messages on server" activated (and if so, do you have the sub-option "Until I permanently delete them" activated)?

I actually don't know why this happens. There seem to be other people with similar problems: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?tid=19517748326bca4a&hl=en

Im using IMAP for Gmail. Now that I think about it i never had this problem with windows live mail (POP). I'll try setting my account for POP.

Thank for the idea

OK I just figured it out

First i re entered my gmail acount and set it up as a regular POP account.

Next I went to my gmail site and under setting i disabled IMAP and under POP i selected Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on.

And now it work.

Thanks again
