Email problem: receiving on iphone, but not macbook.

I am currently planning a wedding and receiving a lot of important emails. I am having trouble, as sometimes the emails are perfectly received on my phone but I can't find them at all on my Macbook. My phone, and laptop are synced. Mail is connected to icloud.


How to I insure that I will receive all emails on BOTH my phone and macbook?


Thanks.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2

Mail does not sync between devices, it syncs between each device and the mail server. Is your email address <something>@icloud.com? Are you deleting them from the iPhone (which would also delete them from the server, and thus from your laptop)? Or moving the messages to a mail folder?


Have you checked the Junk folder on your computer?


If the email account is not @icloud.com you need to check with the email provider, or log in to their webmail site.
