When I go to mobileme on my desktop and delete an email it still shows that I have that email on my iphone or ipad (it's still shows the red number alert on the mail icon). I have to manually go into the email for it to update...only then does it go away. However if I turn on my google exchange account and send an email to that account and then delete it, I don't have this problem. As it stands right now, I have google mail set up to forward all emails to mobileme and archive the copy in google. Is there a setting on my iphone/ipad that I need to use for mobileme? thanks for the help.
Got a tip for us?

Theres an apple support doc that explains this but i cant find it on my iPhone. Thats just the way the MobileMe email works. It syncs back up when you open the phone mail app.
I have noticed this as well. Unless I open the e-mail app, the email remains there. It seems like push doesn't happen until the e-mail app is activated.
This happens to me too and i feel it sort of defeats the point of push email a little.
