Steps to reproduce:

I configured my existing gmail account on thunderbird , which had some filters with labels configured in gmail.
Thunderbird get everything (shows filter with the labels as folders in the imap folders structure)
But if I delete the filter in my gmail account, I have errors in Thunderbird

Actual results:

the filters (aka folders) I deleted in my gmail account configuration (online) are still visible in Thunderbird.
I have errors in Thunderbird (unknown source folder ) when I want to access or delete this folder

Expected results:

there should be synchronization between gmail account and thunderbird
or even the possibility to delete in thunderbird when already deleted in gmail account

Deleting a gmail folder delete's the label?

Thunderbird doesn't do folder discovery after it is started unless you collapse the folder/account group.
So you are seeing one of these https://mzl.la/35BSHdz?

Does https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1001946 help?

Summary: gmail filters → Thunderbird doesn't update list of folders when gmail label deleted

in fact, some filters finally disappeared after restarting tb/gmail but I had one filter on gmail that kept the full gmail structure (an old simple filter on my gmail address). It is now deleted on gmail but always appears in Thunderbird (see attached file)

I messed up my comment 1. My question really was "Deleting a gmail FILTER delete's the label?"

I see 2 inbox (same folder) : the regular and the one under the gmail filter

I don't know about your question because I deleted the label first (and the filter was then useless because it says it does nothing)

the title of my request is the right thing because I deleted the label (and then the filter) on gmail
(the description is not so well written sorry)
