Syncing Thunderbird Mobile with Desktop

When I delete a message on Thunderbird Mobile, it still shows on my desktop (does not sync). Please advise the process where the messages in the mobile app is consistent with desktop. Thanks!

There is no sync directly with TB desktop, at the moment anyway (and do not see this happening in reality for a number of reasons). What you can set up is the "delete" to act on the server as well as this will reflect back t the Desktop version.

I believe this works for POP as well as IMAP. I have relly only used IMAP for Desktop for years as POP is really only useful when using different desktops like Internet cafes - well that used to be the main purpose in earlier years!

Hope this helps Antony

Thanks. Do you have directions on setting up "delete" to act on the server?
