MobileMe emails read in mac mail (Lion) still show as unread on iPhone?

I have only noticed this problem since I upgrade to Lion on my macbook pro.  When I read an email message in Mac Mail (I have a mobileme account), it stays unread on my iPhone.  I have tried quitting and restarting Mail, quitting the app on my phone and reopening it, and nothing seems to get my phone to realize that I have already read the email.  The only thing that works is to "read" the mail again on my phone, which is frustrating when I have already gone through it on my computer.
What is interesting is that when I read a message on my phone, or mark it unread, these changes ARE reflected on my laptop.
I also just checked what happened when I read an email or marked it unread on me.com, and it behaves the same way - Mac Mail recognizes it, but my iPhone doesn't.
Any thoughts or ideas on how to fix this?  Thanks in advance.

I should add that this is not an issue of the badge telling me that I have mail and then when I open the app, it corrects itself.  The emails on my iphone actually appear unread until I read them again on the phone.

  • When I forward an email from my Mac Mail, the body of the email I just forwarded shows as an attachment in the recipients outlook.  Is there a way to change this so my clients don't have to open an attachment to read something that I forwarded to them?

    When I forward an email from my Mac Mail, the body of the email I just forwarded shows as an attachment in the recipients outlook.  Is there a way to change this so my clients don't have to open an attachment to read something that I forwarded to them?

    Open Terminal in Utilties and copy/paste
    This will send the attachment embedded inline. (This works in Snow Leopard, but not sure about Lion. Do a test first. If it doesn't work, just google "send attachment embedded + Lion." You don't actually have to send the message to see how it will appear.)
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing 0
    To reverse the setting, change the 0 to a 1
    However, whether this will work or not will depend on what the e-mail client on the receiver's end does with it.

  • HT5622 .mac mail - I still use my .mac email address to access itunes, icloud, etc. Every once in a while, apple sends me confirmation, reservation, etc. emails to the .mac address. Can someone tell me how to access that email account?

    Hi pjerl,
    Depending on when you originally set up your Apple ID, you may have @mac.com, @me.com, and @icloud.com email addresses associated with your account, but all mail sent to those addresses should still come in to the same iCloud account (you can test this to make sure by sending yourself emails at those addresses). You may find the following articles helpful:

  • My Mac has stopped receiving mail. Mail is still coming through to my iPhone and my wife's iPad but is not appearing on my mac. I have mail from today on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the Mac. I have not touched any settings. Can anyone adv

    My Mac has stopped receiving mail. I have a mac.com address. Mail is still coming through to my iphone and my wife's ipad but nothing is coming through to my imac.I have mail from half an hour ago on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the mac. Everythng was working fine until recently and I have not touched any settings! Can anyone help?

    So I tried something else recently and it seems to have fixed the issue. My mail is now getting new mail again and refreshing after waking from sleep without having to restart mail. Give it a try and hopefully it will help you too.
    First, make sure your Mailbox List is visible (Shift + Control + M). Then select all of your inboxes, mailboxes, and folders (not just the root folder for nested folders, make sure to select them all). Then under the "Mailbox" menu, select "Rebuild."
    It may take a while to rebuild them all if you have a lot, but like I said it seems to have done the trick for me. I hope that proves to be more of a long-term solution.

    The receiving email ports are:
    IMAP is port 143
    IMAP-SSL is port 993
    POP is port 110
    POP-SSL is port 995
    Outgoing ports are...
    SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The  MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
    In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

    I have deleted all emails from my ICloud email account but my manage storage still shows that the mail is using 9.7GB.  Why isn't the number decreasing if all emails have been deleted?

    It might be caused by storage "buffering".  If so, the space will adjust automatically when another iCloud feature uses the space previously allocated to your deleted email.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4873.

    The outgoing mail server is rejecting mail from your network address. Typically that happens when your mail service provider is also your ISP, and you connect to it from another network. The SMTP server will allow connections without a password from anywhere, but it will only relay mail from within the ISP's network. It could also be that your account on the server has expired or been suspended.
    If you need to send mail from outside your ISP's network, use an independent mail service provider. I don't have a specific recommendation.

    Imap is designed to synchronize your mail client with the mail server, this the normal result.
    Switch to POP access if you want it to work asynchronously

  • Can I set up an email account in Mac mail if it already exists in mac for outlook?

    Can I set up an email account in mac mail if it already exists in mac outlook or do I need to delete the outlook account first? I have tried to set it up and its not working.

    Mail and Outlook are two different applications, so you can maintain the same account in both, incl sending and receiving.
    What matters is that the setup is correct. E.g., is it a POP3 or IMAP account? By default, IMAP stores all mails on the (ISP's) server, while POP3 usually deletes it there after it's been received. So, with IMAP you'd easily have your mails everywhere, in every client, while with POP3 it's only in the client which you used most recently, so to speak.

  • Cant recive emails from my Mac Mail?

    Hello
    I'm having a problem receiving emails from my mac mail account. have all the correct details and no fire wall blocking my connection to the inter net.
    However I go to mac Mail and click get mail were there is a timer and after about five Min's of churning around a strange *Warning icon* appears at the side of my mac mail in box, and eventually a warning pops up
    Saying *(Same actions taken the account "MacMail was offline could not be completed Online.*
    *Mail has undone actions on some messages so that you can redo the actions while online. Mail has saved other messages in mailbox "On My Mac" in "on My Mac" so that can somplete the actions while online.*
    *Additional Information: The connection to the server "mail.mac.com" on port 993 timed out.)*
    (I have my gmail accounts as well and they seem to be working okay)
    Any help would be great.

    Hi Simon:
    Open Mail. Highlight the mailbox(s) you wish to rebuild. Click on Mailbox from the menu bar. Click rebuild. That process takes a few minutes, normally. Frankly, I am not sure what it does, but it does "fix" problems on occasion. The mailbox "help" has a bit more information.
