my son left some apple airpods behind last visit home so i took them into NZ Post to send them back, initially  they quoted $90 to send them to Brisbane, the guy looked up the post bible and told me they cant send them because they have a battery

they arrived on a plane from Brisbane and they had a battery

i asked him what about all the battery stuff pouring into the country every day from temu  and he said it can come in but we cant send out

also $90 for something the size of a matchbox is OTT

We are loosing farms fast to unworkable regulations and pine trees.

I have gmail set up on my Android phone as well as on my PC using Outlook 2019.  They can both send and receive mails without issues.

But one thing annoys me is the synching:  when I delete an email from the Android phone , it also deletes from my Outlook 2019.

How do I set it up so that it works independently? like, any deletion will not affect the other?

Is it possible, at all?
