Why doesn't my iPhone delete emails when I delete them on my MacBook and I macs. When I delete mail on I mac it deletes from my Powerbook and Vise versa, but remains on my I phone. It is very annoying to have to keep deleting again on my phone.

I am using I cloud, I use MAc Mail program on my Powerbook running 10.8.2
and I phone 5 running 6.1.2 using apple software for all handling of .me email addresses

Sorry but its how Apple implements iCloud. You have to open the mail app on the mobile device to update.
 
Try deleting the iCloud account from your iPhone and then re-add it. It used to be that it wouldn't automatically update deleted messages, but that changed somewhere along the way. Now the only thing that doesn't automatically update is read status on messages that stay in your inbox.
