Hello!


Upon initially reading this post I thought there was an option to choose how far back you wanted to sync emails however, upon further review I don't see any such option in the Apple Mail application. Personally I use Gmail and having no issues syncing older emails. I would recommend you ensure that you have enough space on your computer for the older emails. I would also try to remove the account and then add it back and see if the older email sync.


I am going to continue to research this topic.


Let me know if this helps!
