Now I see messages from the accounts I added to MobileMe showing up on other computers, but they are not showing up on my computer.

OK - I sent everything up on my iMac as below:

1) when I removed the gmail account I no longer see past emails from that account.

2) When I tried to send email using my gmail account it did not like the selected server and asked me to choose another.

Please help.

Thats cool nice one, but do you know how to solve this one, I have smart folders in my apple mail, but when I log into me.com there not there, there is an option in mobile sync to sync smart folders, but apparently thats only the behaviors and not the content.

Also Google Sync resolves a lot of this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer...

Good article and one I have followed and set-up. Just to confirm one point - if I received a message to joe@example.com and I want to reply from the iPhone do I have to include the example.com email account. Mac Mail makes it easy to reply by adding multiple domains to the set-up, however, this does not seem to be an option on the iphone. That being the case this is not really a good iphone solution - more an issue with the iphone.

Thanks for getting this far with trying to get to a single mail account, while trying to keep multiple domain addresses!!!!

Hey Jordan! This is great! I got so frustrated with the mobile me web interface, when I had to type longer emails than I wanted to on my phone. I got all this working.

2 questions for you, if you have time...
1. if all I want to do is use gmail / mobileme for checking e-mail thru the web, but leave my iphone / Mac the same, do I need to set up the push and other accounts?

2. Can you sync the calendars thru mobile me / gmail?

Thanks a lot!

ok, I must be stupid as I can't follow half the instructions above. I've set my gmail to forward to my mobileme account, easy. I've then set my gmail account up in Mail as an IMAP account.

Then I'm stuck. Where do you set the outgoing smtp account? In mobileme? If so via the me.com site or in the preferences in the Mac (I cant see any option in either?)

I'm just trying to sync my iMac, Macbook and iPhone so they are all in showing the same gmail no matter what device I've viewed/deleted mails on.... I know have no mail coming into my Mail account on my macbook

The drawback is you can't use the web interface of mobileme to send mail with a from address not being the mobileme one.

I would assume there is a risk of an infinite loop otherwise
