imap on the mac and the iphone work similarly to imap anywhere
else. youdon't actually need mobile me to manage this. it could
be that some updating is not taking lace ina timely fashion.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the quick reply. I've been poking around a bit and
think that the problem is on the server and some setting I have on
Dreamhost. It seems that some email messages are sort of falling
into some kind of black hole as, while the mail readers on both
computers (running simultaneously) report a bunch of messages in
the title bar, they don't seem to appear in my Inbox, where I have
have lots of messages that I've actually read stored for processing
later.
Of course, maybe one or both of the machines are confused by what
is and is not read and they are both reporting the number
incorrectly where messages have been deleted and still look to the
software like they remain in the Inbox. I'm not sure...
I'm heading off to the Dreamhost wiki to seewhat I can find.

I need more info to help with this. which machine does which? if
you use one machine and then the other and then switch the order,
does it work the same way? this is often a property of the imap
server.

Hi Folks,
I use IMAP to pick up the email on my hofstader.com account. I
recently set up Mobile Me so my MacBook and iMac could both look
at the information and I could move back and forth easily - or at
least that was the goal.
Now, if I open Mail on either device, the title bar says something
like, "Inbox 250 messages," but only 75 or so appear in my Inbox
on one machine and the other has the rest in its Inbox. Clearly,
both are aware of these messages but it seems like "first come,
first served" as to which actually gets the information.
I'd guess that there is some kind of setting that would let them
both get everything but poking around the View menu and other
settings in Mail, I can't seem to find anything that would
logically suggest that it would correct this oddity.
Thanks,
