I guess the reason is that DeltaChat recently switched to Show Classic E-Mails = “All” from “No, chats only”, so all emails have been already downloaded from Inbox after the setup is done and yes, they are not removed locally after changing the setting to “No, chats only”. There is a proposed fix for this: fix: disable `fetch_existing_msgs` setting by default by link2xt · Pull Request #4423 · deltachat/deltachat-core-rust · GitHub , existing messages just won’t be downloaded. Btw, did you set up the new device from scratch or use “Backup” or “Add Second Device” features? Please also check Setting ‘No, chats only’ for ‘Show Classic E-Mails’ showing classic emails - #15 by Qwck , maybe it’s the same issue
