Please log in for more thread options I am not sure why people don't seem to understand the problem. What I
am saying is that the receiving of email behaves differently dependent
of the manner of deletion on the phone of the previous messages. I am
using the delete option on the messages. At no time am I going to the
"deleted items" folder on the phone regardless of the way the messages
are deleted. When I read a message then choose delete from the menu
option everthing works fine. The message disappears from my inbox and
is transfered to the deleted items folder. Next time I do a
send/receive new messages are downloaded and the previous message I
deleted ia not re-downloaded. This is the second scenario. I read all
my new messages and to save time do not delete them individually at
that time, all the read messages are still in my inbox at that time. I
then choose "folders" from the option menu, highlight the inbox and
choose all from the menu. That works fine and all messages are gone
from my in box and transferred to the "deleted items" folder. However,
on the next send/recieve all the delted messages that were in my inbox
are re-downloaded and appear in my inbox again.
I hope this helps... Bob
