Hi all,
I primarily switched to K9 because whatever email client on my computer,
it wouldn’t download my gmail messages (POP3) if they had been
previously listed (not necessarily opened) on Android’s stock email
client. Things seemed better with K9 but now it happens again.
Basically I want to automatically check my email on Android while having
the messages downloaded later on my computer using an email client. Is
that asking for the moon? Is there a possibility to do this *reliably* ?
I tried to turn Sync off but then my email just wasn’t checked at all.

The default behavior on POP3 accounts is to download the message to your
device, and then delete it from the server. You can set K-9 to leave
the messages on the server; in that case, they will show up on your
computer as already having been read. Note that you also need to have
the computer set to leave messages on the server, rather than deleting
them from the server after they have been downloaded. A better solution
is to use Gmail in IMAP, rather than POP3, mode, which will
automatically leave all messages on the server, as well as allowing you
to create server-side folders.
