I've been dealing with this for a couple months now and would like to fix it all ASAP. I was also curious if the new iOS 5 and iCloud stuff somehow causes my mailboxes on the phone and macbook to sync together since my emails seems to usually be only on my phone and mac or only on my PC.Īny ideas would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone know if the iPhone uses IMAP or POP for these types of mail programs or if there's a way for me to see which protocol it's using? I've explored the iPhone's Mail settings and can't find anything. The iPhone Mail app seems to have set up the emails accounts automatically as 2 standard GMail accounts and 1 standard Yahoo account (SBCGlobal is run through Yahoo), but I can't figure out whether the iPhone is using IMAP or POP. All 3 email accounts are setup for POP3 access on my PC and the 2 gmail accounts are POP3 and the SBCGlobal is IMAP on my Macbook. POP3 setup or with some kind of syncing feature on the iPhone.

I believe the problem either lies with IMAP vs.

I'm asking the question here because the part in the chain I understand least is the iPhone mail. What happens currently is that emails either end up on my PC or on my iPhone and Macbook. What I want is to have all three of these devices get each and every email.

I also have 3 devices I use to access these accounts - an iPhone 4 with the built-in Mail app, Macbook Pro with Mail app, and a Windows 7 laptop with Outlook 2010. I have three email accounts - 2 personal Gmail accounts and and a work (Yahoo/ATT) account. I've had a lot of frustration getting my email on all of my devices ever since I added a work PC into the mix.
