Hi, seems like you have a tag that is not allowed by GMail - have you identified which one? Regards, Gaute

Answer 2 · 2017-11-20T17:25:55.000Z

Not sure how to find out exactly but I believe that it is syncing the "todo" label: ``` ~/projects/gmailieer/gmi sync ✖ ✹ ✭master receiving metadata: 100%|████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 62/62 [00:00<00:00, 91.53it/s] resolving changes: 98%|██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████▋ | 61/62 [00:00<00:00, 601.68it/s]push: creating label: todo..

Right, seems like `todo` is a reserved label by GMail and cannot be created. Same for `mute` or `muted`. I've added the label to the list of ignored tags, please try #53. Label is not listed here: https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/guides/labels

Answer 4 · 2017-11-20T17:38:37.000Z

That solves my problem, yes. Unfortunately, blacklisting this tag also completely undermines the necessity of syncing gmail and notmuch tags for me.. Anyways, syncing is nice and fast on my test account *thumbsup*

That's too bad. I don't see a way around this at the moment, doesn't seem to be any other API for marking a message as todo.

Anyways, syncing is nice and fast on my test account *thumbsup*

Thanks

Fixed in #53

Not your fault of course. BTW: I did not spot the "todo" label among the gmail blacklisted ones in their docs. But I might have overlooked it.

No, it's not listed, along with a bunch of other undocumented restrictions. See "caveats" in the README.

I've encountered the same issue with `Trash`:

I will add 'Trash' to ignored tags. If you use 'trash' (lowercase) it will be translated to the TRASH label and should be applied accordingly.

Weird, I was able to add the label in the web gui. Would you mind trying there as well? Or re-trying from gmi?

Answer 13 · 2019-03-09T18:48:58.000Z

It is weird. I am able to add the label in the web ui, and then assign tag arxiv in notmuch. Syncing, pushing, verything is fine. However, if there is no label arxiv gmail in the first place, and I assign this tag in notmuch, running gmi sync will cause problem.

Answer 14 · 2020-07-28T14:00:36.000Z

I have had the same problem with the arxiv label.

Answer 15 · 2020-07-28T14:23:21.000Z

It is maybe a localized variation of archive? It can be added to the ignored labels list in remote.py. it means it is not possible to synchronize it. tir. 28. jul. 2020, 16:00 skrev Arjun <notifications@github.com>:
