That's part of it. Earthlink is not my ISP. It's an email only account that I
signed up for several years ago when Time-Warner's email servers went down for
several months.
Time-Warner's "support" told me I wasn't paying for email, it was just a bonus
Time-Warner *gave* me out of their corporate generosity and as such it didn't
matter if they ever got the email server back on line because I wasn't being
deprived of any service I was paying for.
I escalated my complaint as high as I could, but never reached a level where the
person I was talking to was able to understand that NOT HAVING email service was
indeed a problem.
Unable to reach through the phone-line and dope slap the idiot assholes I was
having to deal with, I got a non-Time-Warner email only account and put myself
on the waiting list for Google Fiber.
The other part of it is I don't want to use the iPhone for email. I have
perfectly good computers that handle email just fine.
I bought the iPhone to run *GasBuddy* and *The Photographer's Ephemeris* and
maybe *PhotoPills*.

Eric, I have a POP connection and use Thunderbird. All my emails are saved both
on my computer and on the server... I don't know about phones and laptops and
such. I used to have it set to downlaod and delete, but after having a crash a
couple of years ago I switched back to leaving stuff on the server too..
MAybe it depends on who your IP is.

Do you know what kind of email account you have, i.e., POP or IMAP? If POP,
after messages are downloaded to a device they are deleted from the server,
and this are not available to other devices. IMAP synchronizes mailboxes
between devices.
