I'm confused, why not use IMAP on both your PC and your iPhone? I do
this with no problem. I use Thunderbird on all of my Ubuntu and Windows
systems, and it's not behaving weird for me.
If you want to go back to POP3, I'd suggest switching both your PC and
your iPhone to POP3. If the email client on the iPhone supports it,
change the settings to leave the messages on the server but delete them
if you delete them from the phone. This way they won't be downloaded to
your PC when you check your email on the PC. I assume this setting is
supported on the iPhoine, but I've never used POP3 on the iPhone, so I
can't be sure.

HI guys
Sorry for the subject line but I can't think of a better way to put the
subject. The deal is that before getting my Iphone in July of 2012, I
used GMail on Pop3 with Outlook, or when on XP, Outlook Express, and
really liked the setup. I tried using the same setup when days after
geting my Iphone, but found it tiresome to when deleted tons of EMail on
my phone, go to my PC and delete them all over again! thus changed to
thunderbird since it uses Imap like on the Iphone. So my question is, if
I were to change again to Pop3 on my PC, and the Iphone uses Imap, how
do you guys handle the task before-mentioned of not being able to delete
EMail on one or the other? I liked using EMail via Imap on the PC,
because it saves time by being able to delete EMails on the phone, and
when being on the PC, only read the interesting ones, but Thunderbird
lately has been behaving kind of weird!
