synchronizing email between devices

How do I delete email on all devices. When deleting on iPhone I still have the email on my MacBook and iPad. Is there a setting which enables deleting on all devices?

Synchronized folders would be the ones on the Server & on Your Mac.


You can have a look on you Mail Prefs then check your account's Mailbox Behaviors and then see if the Trash is pointing to "Trash On My Mac" or "Trash on the Server". By selecting "Trash on the Server", this would delete the email in all devices since it is saved in the server.
