I first noticed this problem on Tuesday 12/30/2013. I have a Motorola Droid Bionic running Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean), on Verizon. The email account is hosted by GoDaddy.
I'm using IMAP email with both the native client and K9. Neither one shows all the messages of my inbox. I'm not sure but they don't seem to even be showing the same select subset of messages, or maybe they are. On K9, I have watched messages appear in the inbox for a few seconds, and then disappear from the inbox. They don't go to trash, they're just gone. They're still on the email server, however - I can see them using the web email application. It seems like they can disappear even without a refresh happening, but they definitely can disappear upon refresh. A couple times I've been able to actually open and read them, but when I go back to the inbox they're gone. But I'm not sure whether they actually disappear apart from a refresh, so for now they only thing I can be sure of is that they disappear upon refresh.
I don't know whether the native email has the same behavior - I've never seen an email appear there and later disappear. However, on both the native and K9 email apps, the inbox is definitely not showing all messages. I'm talking about the MOST RECENT messages, so it isn't a case of older messages dropping out because I'm only showing the most recent 100 or whatever.
In the native client, I tried removing the account and adding it back in. No effect.
On K9, I tried uninstalling the app, restarting the phone, reinstalling K9. No effect.
I went to the Verizon Store yesterday, 1/1/2014, and the guy there said he'd had one woman come in the day before with a similar problem with a Yahoo email address, but Verizon hasn't yet posted anything on their internal network about it. They guy said he'd make a posting about my case, and if enough people have an issue they'll try to resolve it. He said he'd get back to me in a couple of days to let me know the status.
I'm not finding anything like this through google searches so maybe it's a new problem, or maybe it's just the NSA screwing with me and that other woman.
