When I create a folder in Outlook 2013 under my GMail IMAP account it is not showing up as a label in Gmail. The other way around works perfectly, if I create a label in GMail about 10 seconds later it appears in my Outlook 2013.
This is causing me a lot of problems as I have to migrate about 250 folders to GMail. I don't want to manually create the labels (a lot of nesting as well) and then migrate the emails. I'd like to just create the folder in my Outlook 2013 Gmail IMAP account and then drag the emails to this folders. Right now I have to manually create each label in Gmail webapp, then go to Outlook 2013 and then upload the emails to the newly created folder.
Has anyone encountered something like this before?
This is not correct as the labels created in Gmail do show up as Folders in outlook right after creation. – Simon – 2015-07-24T22:59:17.880

Confirmed and working both ways in Outlook 2013 on another Desktop with Outlook 2013 MSI. But on this specific machine and Outlook 2013 Click To Run Edition it doesn't work. – Simon – 2015-07-27T12:20:32.727
