old emails register as new mail in N900 with NM

Hi there..

 

I wonder if anyone can help with a very annoying problem.. I am using NM with three different accounts loaded (2 x POP3 and 1 x Gmail).. One of the POP accounts is my main mailbox and has roughly 100-200 e-mails there-in..

 

My N900 is constantly flagging very old emails as 'new' and 'unread' e-mail.. This is very frustrating as usually it is the oldest mails, so I have to scroll all the way down and re-open each mail.. Then, the next day, they/or others will come through again as 'new' and 'unread'.. This is totally random from NM point of view..

 

This only started happening when the number of mails in my inbox became larger, over time. I do not have this problem (yet) on my other accounts which have far smaller inbox's..

 

Today I cleaned 100 mails off my server to try and resolve the problem by making the inbox smaller, but then I got 20 old mails registered as 'new' and 'unread'.!

 

I would like to be able to switch OFF the 'Sync with Inbox' option but this is not possible.. This would allow push e-mail to my phone and then I could download to my PC manually and set the emails not to stay on my server.. This way I could choose immediately whether to keep or delete mails from my phone inbox but still have them stored on my PC.. This would keep my phone inbox smaller and save data costs of syncing with inbox.. I am under the understanding that this is how it works with Blackberry Push Email..

 

PS : My NM setting for 'update automatically' is not selected.. My individual accounts are set to 'send and receive - as soon as possible'..

 

Apart from this problem, NM is working great on my phone and has been since I started using it a few months back.. 

 

Thanks..
