Hello everyone,

I encountered an unprecedented problem after having created server side mail rules for my recipients - basically moving incoming emails to specific (IMAP) folders.

I have stopped receiving new mail alert for these emails on my iPhone. I know the iPhone checks only the Inbox and not the folders for new mail owing to which I have to keep surfing through every folder to download new mail.

But this is so odd. Apple says on MobileMe "Rules are applied .... that your Inbox stays organized across all your devices automatically". Precisely what I want. I receive notifications for these new mails on my Mac when that happens - then why not on my iPhone ? It doesn't make sense to me - am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks
