I set up my Gmail account through Windows Mail. But it does not have a
folder for my Gmail. I have set up a different email also and it made a
folder and all the subfolders of that account. How do I get it to make my
Gmail folders. I've tried deleting the account and readding it but still
nothing.

Click to expand...

Go to your gmail account.
You can now access your Gmail account via IMAP. For details, click
Settings > "Forwarding and POP/IMAP".
IMAP settings should give you the folders.

From the website:
Don't fret if you don't see "IMAP Access" yet under the Settings menu. We're
rolling it out to everyone over the next few days.

In the mean time, set up a new local folder, name it, and then go to
Tools>message rules and set up a rule to direct your gmail to the new
folder.
