I have mobileme synced on my iPhone (3Gs) my Macbook Pro and my iMac. But recently when i sent a message on my macbook or imac, it doesn't show up in Sent Messages on my iPhone, and visa versa. 🙁

Anyone know what might be causing this, and how to fix it? Thanks!

You have to specifically tell each, the iMac, the MacBook Pro and the iPhone to use the server "sent"/"draft"/"junk" messages folder instead of a local one. This is a configuration option on the individual mail account.
 
Thank you! On the iMac and Macbook Pro, is this done by going into Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox behaviors/then check the Store Messages on Server box next to Sent (in this case, can also do for junk and trash)? If so, it's set up that way already... 😕

On the iPhone, not quite sure where to do this?
