Again, you are all way too smart for me. I don't have any idea what OP is, and I don't know if that's relevant.

I'm trying this imap thing and this is how I understand it:

  1. mail hits imap.gmail.com (or 1and1)
  2. Droid checks at set interval, and obtains mail from imap.gmail.com
  3. Outlook checks at set interval, and obtains mail from imap.gmail.com
  4. I delete mail, on either Droid or Outlook.
  5. When Droid or Outlook check imap.gmail.com, they tell it the mail has been deleted.
  6. When the other device, from which I DID NOT delete the email checks imap.gmail.com, it will discover that the mail is no longer there, and will delete it from that device, which I DID NOT use to delete it.

Have I understood?
