This is a strange one which has only started happening since 3.0 (this could be a total coincidence) and I am not sure whether it is iPhone, OS X or my mail server

I paid for hosting of my own domain name which includes email, this supports either POP3 or IMAP.

Since I got my iPhone about 12 months ago I have been using this email setup as IMAP without any issues.

Since upgrading to 3.0, A few times a week when i check my emails on the phone the inbox is briefly blank and then it re downloads all my emails, after it has done this, when I go to check my emails on my mac (mail app) the mail folders all show as empty and I need to do a repair on the mailbox for it to work again

I have tried re creating the mailbox from scratch on my phone/mac but it makes no difference

Anyone any thoughts on whether this could be an iPhone 3.0 issue or a OS X issue or even a fault with the mail server

I also have an MM account and this works fine, I do not see the issue with this
