IMAP can be quite slow to sync flags. Make sure you sync the accounts by hitting "check for new emails" first on your phone, then on your computer. Is it still not working?
 
What mail service do you use. I haven't had any issues with iCloud except for an occasional lag when I have a slow internet connection.
