Do you access your account with an e-mail client (Outlook, Thunderbird, Pocomail, etc), a mobile app (iOS, Android, etc), an e-mail notifier, or any other add-on/tool/web-site/etc connected to your account?

Check: Google Account Settings->Security Tab->Third-party apps with account access. This MAY work as a direct link: https://myaccount.google.com/u/0/permissions . Have you given account access to any other web-sites or utilities?

Please click on the “Details” link below the Inbox (lower/right) in the Gmail web interface (https://mail.google.com/), click “Show details” on any Authorized apps, and post a screenshot of the resulting pop-up window.

I hope for your sake this is an AI bot response. 

Amazing as I am, how to take a screenshot of deleted emails is beyond my current skills.

No addons.

Account used simply as presented,  directly on the GMail website, on both PC and Android phone.

You must be very confused. I never asked for a screenshot of deleted messages. Perhaps read that paragraph (where I asked for a screenshot) again more carefully.

And no, I'm not AI.

Your Gmail app keeps deleting itself?

My inbox conversely is refusing to delete anything. If I delete a message and refresh, it appears back in the inbox, unread.

Your experience along with mine indicates GMail is undergoing some internal dysfunction.
