SIlent GMail notifications but audible calendar notifications?

[mccornwall]

I recently had to uninstall the latest GMail updates and then re-install. I now no longer have the ability to silence Gmail without silencing the entire phone. I want phone calls, texts, and calendar but no GMail. Any ideas? I don't know what changed but I had it before. Thanks.

Have you checked the notification settings for the Gmail inbox? My Gmail is silent, but gives me a status bar notification, and it does not affect the remainder of the phone.

Menu>more>settings> select account> select "labels to notify" > select inbox. Settings are there.

I can turn status bar notifications on or off but there is no mention of sounds in the GMail settings.

Did you follow all the way? Selecting "labels to notify" (bottom of the page) below "Email notifications" and then "Inbox" ? The sound settings are two steps past the general settings page.

No I didn't. You hit it right on the nose. Thanks.
