Receiving multiple times the same e-mails in Gmail - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
i have a odd problem with Gmail on a Nexus 5X running stock Android 6.0.1. I didn't find any solution using Google so far...
What I did:
- changed my phone from Nexus 4 to a Nexus 5X, on the Nexus 4 everything worked fine (running CyanogenMod 13)
- set up two mail accounts in Gmail (one is GMX and one of my university). Incoming servers are both IMAP.
- set the synchronization to every 30min
The problem:
every 30min when the mails are synchronized I get a notification for new mail, I read them, everything is fine. The next 30min when it gets synchronized again I get the same mails marked as unread (plus additional mails I may received). Even if I delete the mails on my phone I get them again. Same behaviour on both accounts.
Shouldn't there be something like a respond to the server that the client already received/deleted those mails? I think I also used IMAP on the Nexus 4 and no problems with it.
I hope someone knows how to fix it, it would be highly appreciated!
Thanks

A Gmail update (v. 6.6.126913422) today solved the issue!

Emails disappeared from all accounts

Hi all
This was a new one for me and i hope its a one off.
I was reading my emails using the undread option across mutiple accounts and once i had read them all and switched back to all mails view all of my mails had gone from the device.
I then exited mail and went back into it and it showed the setup account choices screen.
I checked settings and accounts and they were all still there with a green sync icon but checking the mail app they were not showing as registered.
The only fix i could find was a factory reset.
Has anyone else experienced this and is there a better fix? I have searched the forums and found nothing so far.

This also has happened to me multiple times. I had 2 accounts: exchange for work and pop/smtp for home email. Mail client crashed (do not remember exactly what i was doing) and upon re starting it i was presented with the screen to set up mail accounts.
Checking the Account & Sync in Settings listed both accounts, but the mail client was unaware of them.
First time this happened I simply re-entered account details in the mail client and everything worked.
Second time it happened I could enter the exchange account details but client reported that it could not connect.
This required a factory reset to fix. Called north american support line, they had no record of this problem on file & suggested I use k9 client due to history of mail client issues on other devices. I could not get k9 to work on exchange.
When it happened the third time, I was able to reenter the accounts into the email client again and things worked.
I am now evaluating touchdown mail client for exchange. I use the gmail client for some other accounts and it works fine.

[Q] email problems - email vanishes...

Ok, I have a number of email related problems...
I'm using POP to sync with my business email, hosted on a managed server.
I can access email no problem, and send.
But, I have the phone set-up to check for mail every 30 mins or so, and it does this ok, and reports 'X' new messages, but when I go to the mail app it shows 'no mail', and I have to refresh to actually see the mail. Very, very annoying, and I guess is costing me more as the phone is data downloading twice! A real issue as I'm 'roaming' a lot...
With mail receiving that's about all the problems. but I'd love a fix if it's something I'm doing wrong.
But, with sent mail the phone seems to decide to delete all sent mail, no matter what setting I have set for mail.
I have no idea why this happens, and more importantly how to stop it.
All previous phones (this is my first Android one) kept all sent mail until I deleted it.
Any ideas regarding these problems?
Clear your mail data from setting and do a fresh mail set up afterwards. Good luck
Ok, trying now...
Is this a known problem???

[Q] Stock email sending intermittent blank emais via gmail set up as exchange

Hi!
I'm having a very irritating problem and was hoping someone could help.
I am running stock ICS on my skyrocket, and I have my gmail account set up as exchange in the stock mail app. I can generally send/receive just fine, however I have one friend who 50% of the time seems to receive my email responses to her emails as blank. When I look at them in my sent folder of gmail on my computer, they show up as blank there as well, making this massively irritating since I then have to re-type the entire message.
Any idea what's causing this? I actually was having the same problem emailing her on my Nexus 7 as well from the stock email set up in the same fashion as my phone. And she does not have this problem with anyone else.
Thanks!

Nexus 5 - Android 4.4. - Exchange - Contacts problem

Some days ago I start using Nexus 5. I set up my corporate Exchange account (like in my previous phones) and most things are working fine. Except one thing - contacts.
The People/Contact shows me ALL email address I have communication with them in last years. So I have over 2000 contacts (mostly email addresses) in my Contacts. On my Exchange, I have 140 contacts and it is interesting, that sometimes just this contacts are shown (that is what it supposed to be all the time).
I checked setting (what contacts to display, ...), restarts, make a voodoo ... but nothing helps. Because I have used this feature in the past, I'm sure that this is a bug.
Any idea? Where can I report this bug?
Regards to all.

I have this same issue, and it's driving me crazy. I thought maybe it was a "feature" of hangouts being on so I disabled hangouts and removed my email accounts and verified my contacts were emptied. I also went into outlook and emptied out my auto complete file so they are not there either. Added my exchange account back in and there they are, thousands of contacts that are not really contacts.
I was on here looking for a solution myself.
