Having trouble synching Google labels to TB mailing lists #5

Closed saleslogistix closed 3 years ago

saleslogistix commented 3 years ago

Running TB 78.9 and TBsync 2.21 and Provider for Google 0.1 on Windows 10. Have three accounts synching, all seem to work OK...except...I have one account that has ~400 contacts in it and 14 groups. All the contacts sync, all the labels appear on the TB side, but only three of the labels (mailing lists) are fully populated, and one of them is only partially populated.
100% reproducible on my system. (If you want to try it on your system, I can give you access). Label names are (PLMWC) CA-Waterboard List (PLMWC) Customer Emails (PLMWC) External Resources PLMWC Cedar+RR PLMWC LMtPine PLMWC LPalo PLMWC Madrone PLMWC NoEmail PLMWC Oak Knoll PLMWC Toyon PLMWC UMtPine PLMWC UPalo PLMWC Walnut PLMWC Willow

Thanks for reporting.

Before we continue to investigate: maybe the contacts which weren't added to the TB mailing-lists have no email addresses? If so, everything's fine because You can't add an email-less contact in a mailing-list. If You still want to do so, please check the "Use fake email addresses" flag: a fake email address is created when synchronizing from Google to Thunderbird (and it will not be updated back to the Google server when synchronizing the opposite way).

Please let me know.

Thanks, MZ
