[...] Overall it’s a good read, if you can spare 30 minutes of your lunch hour to digest it (the article, not your lunch). iPhone doesn’t come out of this shooting match unscathed I’m afraid. Daniel makes no appologies for iPhones various weaknesses and shortcomings, like its maligned Mail app. [...]

Something else that irritates that hell out of me, which wasn't mentioned in my article...

When you delete emails and mail fails to connect with your mail server...it UNDELETES them! I have to go back and delete the same emails AGAIN! ARGGGGG!!!!

Agreed, I hate having to cycle through deleted mail in this fashion. No sooner do I eradicate the last 20 spam emails in my inbox, Mail goes out and pulls back another 20-30 to replace them. Madness.

They most DEFINITELY need a 'check all as read' feature. Having to mark them all, one by one as read is ridiculous.

Also, I have mine set to show the latest 50 emails. Well, a decent amount is spam, so when I delete one of these 50, an older email is pulled it to reach my quota of 50. A lot of times this is spam. I wish it would not pull in older emails or give me the option not to. Does that make sense?
