iPhone / iPad Mail Creates Deleted Messages and Drafts Label on Gmail

When using Mail app of iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to access Gmail, occasionally additional labels named Deleted Messages and Drafts will be created on Gmail web interface (and on subsequent IMAP access).

The additional labels with the name of Deleted Messages and Drafts are created by iOS Mail app to store and hold deleted emails and drafts respectively, when the default Gmail IMAP folders for deleted messages and drafts, namely Trash and Drafts are not been made available to IMAP service.

Note: The Mail app is configured to delete Gmail emails and not archive Gmail messages, which otherwise would cause the mails to be sent to All Mails folder.

To fix the issue, just make sure that the Trash and Drafts folders of Gmail is visible on IMAP, and that iPhone, iPad or iPod touch Mail app is been configured to use the Gmail’s folders as the destination for deleted messages and drafts.

Apple does not want to support Flash on iOS platform (yes, iPhone, iPad and iPod touch cannot playback Flash media) as it argues that the emerging web standards, HTML5, which can do everything Flash offered will eventually replace Flash technology. And now who needs a tightly controlled App Store when a similar web app built on HTML5 can do the job?

Many eBook stores has gone the way of HTML5 web app to response and circumvent Apple’s new in-app purchase or in-app subscription rules which disallow any links to external mechanisms or stores for purchasng digital books or magazine subscriptions. As the result, most publishers altered to apps to strip the links or stores inside the app, and goes on to introduce HTML5 web app, where it’s not required to be submitted to iTunes App Store to be approved, allowing more controls – such as a store or buy button.

iOS 4.3.4 and iOS 4.2.9 Released (IPSW Download)

A new version iOS for Apple mobile devices has been released by Apple, mainly to plug a security hole which relates to security vulnerability when viewing malicious PDF files. The vulnerability allows Comex, an iOS hacker of iPhone Dev Team to update the web-based JailBreakMe hack to support jailbreak of iOS devices running on iOS version 4.3.0 to 4.3.3.

Two versions of iOS software are made available for GSM and CDMA versions of iPhones and iPads, plus iPod touches, which are iOS 4.3.4 and iOS 4.2.9. As the upgrade fixes the security flaw used by JailBreakMe hack, users who update to the latest version of iOS will effectively remove the jailbreak too, although a patch is available from Cydia which allows the vulnerability to be fixed while preserving the jailbreak.

Apple details the security related patches for iOS 4.3.4 update in HT4802.

iDevice users can get the automatic update by connecting the device to iTunes. Users who want to manually download the IPSW file for iOS 4.3.4 can use the following direct download links:
