  end
end

#archive!Object

Archiving is done by adding the ‘All Mail` label. To undo this, you just re-apply the `Inbox` label (see `#unarchive!`)

IMAP’s fetch(‘1:100’, (X-GM-LABELS)) function does not fetch inbox, just emails labeled important? stackoverflow.com/a/28973760 In my testing the currently selected mailbox is always excluded from the X-GM-LABELS results. When you called conn.select() it implicitly selected ‘INBOX’, therefore excluding ‘Inbox’ from the list of labels. If you selected a different mailbox then you would see ‘\\Inbox’ in your results:

  @gmail.find(message.message_id).remove_label('\Inbox')

#delete!Object

Deleting is done by adding the ‘Trash` label. To undo this, you just re-apply the `Inbox` label (see `#undelete!`)
