Hi
Could someone give me more information about or guide me to a thread where this is solved:
When I read my emails on my iPhone, it shows up unread on my MacBook and vice versa.

Thanks

Use IMAP instead of POP

I know, but it does not seem to allow that?
Also I do not know what i need to put in the 'incoming mail server' field, cannot seem to find it on the net.
Thanks in advance
 
Different email systems use different rules/set-ups. For example, with Gmail you need to set it up as an Exchange mail if you want instant read/unread (i.e. push email).
