Hi, I have noticed that if I set a flag on a message (either using OSX or IOS) then the flag only appears in the IOS mail app while the message is in the INBOX. If I move the message to another folder then that message is no longer included in the 'Flagged' list on the Mailboxes screen.

The same flags work fine on my Mac, but on my IOS devices they only show the count and the flag while the actual message is in the INBOX.

This seems to be a bug that Apple has not rectified after all this time? Does anyone know of a workaround so that the flags work the same in IOS and OSX because it's really awkward, I am flagging messages on my Mac and they are not appearing in the Flagged list on my iPhone and iPad. Thanks!
