iPhone and iMac mail not syncing

Anytime I delete or read a message on my phone, it won't show that it is read or deleted on my iMac mail app on my MacBook Pro.

Syncing issue: mail on iPhone shows as unread when same messages have already been read on Mac My emails used to sync perfectly between iPhone and Macbook. Once an email was read on either device it would show as read on both. Now, when I read emails on the Macbook they remain as unread on the iPhone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Mail not synching between iPhone and Mac Hi, I have a gmail account and it is set up on my Mac (running Ventura) and on my iPhone (running latest OS update). When I open Mail on my Mac, all the emails that I deleted on my phone show as "unread" in Mail on my Mac. So somehow what I delete on my iPhone in the Mail application does not seem to impact the mailbox and the messages show on Mac as if they were never read or deleted. Please help with what settings I need to change to ensure full sync. Thanks!

Mail not completely syncing across devices Whilst mail is syncing in terms of each mail appearing on each of my three devices (MacBook Pro, iPhone 12 and iPad Mini) when a mail is read or deleted on one device it doesnt appear as such on either of the other two devices regardless of from which device the mail was read or deleted. Please be gentle with me as not claiming to be the brightest LED in the array!

Hi,

Simply select the “Automatically sync when this [device] is connected” checkbox in the General pane, then turn on syncing for each type of content you want to sync. Your Mac and iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch update to matching content whenever you connect them.
