Coming from a blackberry I'm having some issues with e-mail. Trying to simplify this as much as possible:
I use outlook as my PC email client. It is not normallly kept open, ie only downloads from server when opened.
With the BB, I would receive mail, read it and the message would stay on my device and not be downloaded from the server (so it would appear in outlook next time it was opened). I also had the option to delete (removes from device) or delete and remove from server (so if i open outlook later, I would not get the message there).
On the outlook side, when, it would download messages from the server and I would not see them on the device.
What seems to be happening now is if i read a message on the phone it remains for a while until some random time after I open outlook, then it disappears, sometimes a day or two later.
I'm guessing there is no way to make it work the way I am used to, which is a shame. Can anybody explain what is going on?
