Hello, All!

I recently made a email alias with my iCloud account so I can have a separate email account for work. So I wouldn't get my work emails confused with my spam email, I setup a mail rule from the icloud webpage. The rule I created takes email sent to my newly created email alias address to my 'work' folder.

I tried a few test emails to make sure everything works. The problem I was having was that my dock icon on my Mac wasn't showing the unread messages from the 'work' mailbox. This was a simple fix, I just had to go to mail settings in general and change unread mail count to all mailboxes.

I am now having the same problem on my with iPhone running iOS6. I can't seem to figure it out. I see the the unread messages in my 'work' inbox, but my unread mail count on my iOS Mail App isn't taking count.

Any idea? :confused:

Thanks!
