* How to truly sync Verizon email? *

prior to getting an iphone recently, i had an android and used an app called K9 mail for my mobile email control. i liked it because it was able to truly sync with my verizon email account (***@verizon.net). what i mean by sync is if i logged on from my PC onto my verizon webmail and deleted or moved an an email, it would also be deleted/moved from my k9 email app the next time it refreshed. basically it was always a true representation of what was on the actual verizon webmail server.
now with the iphone, the preinstalled email app does not do that. i also downloaded the verizon fios app which i thought for sure would be capable of this, but again, it does not do it. if i retrieve my email from the apps and then i delete or move an email from webmail server while on PC, i'll still have to delete it again from app even though technically its not in my inbox anymore.
has anyone figured this out? is there any iOS email app capable of truley syncing like this?
thank you!

I know this is a very old post but the issue still remains. My Android products have no issue "truly Synchronizing" with Verizon/POP3 email so instead of looking at it like all of these email providers need to change to IMAP I would prefer to look at it like if the POP3 technology (no matter how old it is) still exists with many other companies including Verizon then Apple should try there best to support it instead of attempting to force people to conform to only what they support. This fact makes me want to dump my Apple products. I'm certainly leaning that way.
The Android OS on your old phone didn't support syncing with POP3 the way you want anymore than Apple does. The third party app did. Perhaps you should try to convince that app developer to make an app for iOS.

How Do I Sync All Email Accounts and Mailboxes (including those I create)?

How do I Sync all email accounts in the OSX Mail Application and mailboxes(including those I have created), all using the .mac sync application . . . or is there a better way to sync information from my powerbook to my imac?
The problem: I am reading and sorting/organizing my emails on my powerbook when traveling, and then I come home to my imac and end up having to manually duplicate the work I just completed. Any easy way of truly syncing the information between computers? Pleae let me know. Thanks
What is meant by mailbox structures? For example: On my powerbook, I have 2 unread messages in one of my IMAP email accounts. I read both messages. I choose to move message A to a client mailbox that I created in the OSX Mail APPL and the other message B I leave as read in the inbox & respond with a sent email . Now I use the .mac sync app on the powerbook. Then I use the .mac sync app on my imac . . . . will the application not sync the same information/sorting/organizing/sent responces into the appropriate mailboxes? I'm so confused.
Also, what "mailboxes behavior" & "advanced" preferences should be checked with IMAP email accounts. All sorts of misc. mailboxes keep being created in the OSX Mail APP. when choosing different preferences. When selecting store on server (mailboxes created indicate: stored locally on computer). Again very confused.

The benefit of using an IMAP is keeping server stored messages synchronized when accessing the account with an email client such as the Mail.app on different Macs.
Messages in the Inbox mailbox for an IMAP type account are stored on the server by default which cannot be turned off.
With an IMAP type account, you can also store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages on the server which is available under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences.
If you want to keep Sent messages synchronized with Mail on both Macs, you need to select "Store sent messages on the server" under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences in Mail on both Macs.
I choose to move message A to a client mailbox that I created

my imac . . . . will the application not sync the same information

I'm so confused.
Was this client mailbox created as an "On My Mac" location mailbox? If so, an "On My Mac" location mailbox is stored locally on the hard drive, not on the server so messages moved to such a mailbox will not be kept synchronized with Mail on both Macs. Transferring a message from the account's Inbox mailbox or from any server stored mailbox to an "On My Mac" location mailbox stores the transferred message locally on the hard drive and removes the message from the server at the same time.
When creating a mailbox, the default location is "On My Mac" which is stored locally on the hard drive. If you are accessing an IMAP type account, you can select the IMAP account via the location selection which will create the mailbox on the server and be available in Mail on the other Mac. Messages placed in a server stored mailbox will be kept synchronized with Mail on both Macs.

How do I sync my email so that what is on my PC reflects on my iphone

How do I sync my email so that what is on mu PC reflects on my phone. Currently if I delete an email it remains on my phone. Is there a way to fix this?

You're using a POP email account and that is how it works. If you are able to, try setting it up as IMAP instead of POP. If you can't, then you are stuck with it the way it is.

How do I sync my email between my iPhone and iPad?

A razmee209 said, set up your email in settings on both devices.
iPhone email will always be up to date.
The iPad will update when it has internet connection. If it is a wifi only iPad, it will only update when connected to wifi, but will do so automatically.

I don't believe that Comcast uses IMAP, unfortunately. The best solution might be to access your email through Comcast's specialized app: http://xfinity.comcast.net/learn/internet/mobile-iphone-itouch-ipad/

You can setup an iCloud account. You get 5GB of storage space for free. Then your mail will automatically sync via Wi-Fi between your iPhone and iPad.

Set all your email accounts up as IMAP (instead of POP3) so that the messages are stored on the server. Then whatever actions you take on a message on your iPad will be "in sync" across all other devices/computers you access that email account from.

How do you add verizon email?

How do I set up a verizon email account on my iphone? I have tried several differnet things for the host name and nothing works. Verizon.com says use incoming.verizon.net and apple.com says use incoming.yahoo.verizon.net neither works. Called apple and was told to check discussion to see if someone else has this problem. Help!!

Does your Verizon email come up on a Yahoo! Mail page? If it does the steps I'd given you should have worked, if your Verizon mail account is not a Yahoo! account you should then get in contact with Verizon to get the mail settings (incoming/outgoing hosts, port numbers, etc.) once you have that info you go into settings, mail, add account, other, then input the settings. It's a little more involved this way, but you only have to do it once.
Hope this helps.

How do I sync my email messages

Hello
Two quick questions:
If I download my emails automatically from my ISP to Outlook (using POP3, so that they are no longer on the server) how do I sync my iphone with these emails in Outlook?
Then, when my PC is not working how do I get my iphone to access my ISP, so that it can download any new email messages?
Thanks

You cannot sync email with Outlook. You can set up an email account on the iPhone and download messages to the iPhone, just as you would with Outlook. However, as you have already noted, you do not get messages that were already downloaded by Outlook. This is a limitation of the POP3 protocol, which was designed way back when no one could conceive of the possibility that you might have more than one computer/email reader.
As a kludge you can set Outlook to not remove messages from the server after download, but that causes a management headache when you want to delete messages fro the server.
The best solution is to switch to an IMAP email server, as IMAP was designed to access email from multiple devices. With IMAP the master copy is on the server and remains there until deleted from one of the clients. If your ISP does not offer IMAP you can set up a GMAIL account or MobileMe to act as agent for your ISP's email server.

TS4083 How can I sync all email accounts to my iphone?

There used to be an info section in iTunes that allowed you to sync email accounts from your iMac to your phone but this option seems to have been removed now from iTunes. Has it moved to iCloud somehwere? If so, how can I sync the accounts from my iMac? Thanks is advance for your help!

Thanks! I knew how to do that already :/ Just upgraded to a 5s and didn't want to manually enter my accounts and server settings again (there are 10 email accounts) as I actually don't remember most of the passwords. I backed up settings from my old iPhone 4 before swapping the sims over and have managed to restore the 5s from that backup which copied over all of my email accounts, great success! However, just had to access cpanel for all accounts to reset the passwords as they are not copied over.
Thank you for your prompt reply!

Sync verizon email

I have a Mac, iPad and iPhone that I want to receive and send email with. I don't wish to change my verizon.net email address. Is there a way I can get all of these devises to sync? I receive email on all of them but when I erase it doesn't sync to the others.

I'm no tech wiz either so I can't help much with the details, but I had the same problem so I asked an apple tech. He set me up so that all of my Verizon email goes thru gmail. I had to open a gmail account but the return address shows Verizon. Now the account on my phone and iPad is gmail but it's really just my verizon mail so it's transparent to everyone but me. I can now delete and file mail on my devices via gmail. Apparently Verizon only supports pop accounts and instead of upgrading to imap they just give you more space so that you don't need to access and manage your account thru them. This is what the tech told me anyway.
