This happenned to me as well. I'm not sure, but it may be fixed in the current beta version. You may want to check. My laptop just died on me, so I cannot really test this now... K> Also, I notice that the synchronization *adds* new messages to the K> notebook Bat. It does not delete messages that I deleted on the K> desktop. For example, this weekend I read through about 1000 old This is definitely the way it behaves. And it's a poor way to behave especially since TB keeps track of _deleted_ messages as opposed to messages that you never had, so it could easily do the deletion for you. However, I don't complain too much about the deleted messages because on my setup I delete them from server when I delete them from TB so my other system, when connected will never read them (I never have both my laptop and desktop read emails at the same time). Still, the option would be really useful. Another, more subtle problem, is filing the messages. I get all my emails (except for mailing lists) in my inbox. I file it afterwards depending on the topic, and I would like this filing to be synchronized as well when I call "synchronize". After sorting my emails on the desktop, the synchronization to the laptop would add the sorted messages in their rightfully folders, but it would not delete them from the inbox (as they were moved). The "remove all dupes" doesn't help either because it applies "per folder" not "per account", which would be another usefull option. I guess I will send an email to the developers asking about these options...
