10.5: Keep 'Apple Mail To Do' off IMAP accounts in Mail - refinement for Gmail users
Authored by: mael on Jan 22, '09 01:48:11PM

As a side note to Gmail/Google Mail users:
You can turn off the additional tags the Apple Mail client creates. That way you won't see them, though they will still work as expected and need no configuration of the Apple Mail client.

In Gmail click on "Settings" > "Labels" and uncheck the option "Show in IMAP".
Done.
Easy, huh?

Huh? I don't have that option in Settings > Labels in my Gmail account. Can you give some more specifics?

You first have to enable the Google Labs feature. ( I don't remember how to do this but poke around) Once you do, you will have a "Labs" tab in your settings view. Then, under Labs, you will have several bonus options you can enable. One of them is "Advanced IMAP Controls." Once you enable that, when you go into "Labels" each label should have a checkbox that says "Show in IMAP." If you uncheck one, that label no longer shows up in your mail client, but it still exists in the Gmail web interface.

Many of those settings are not available in Google mail for personal domains. Also, I believe they're still "Labs" features, so you'll have to enable them specially.
