Apple Mail not syncing with FastMail

Apple Mail is failing to sync with FastMail using IMAP. Most messages sync OK but some don't.


My iPad syncs OK so I reckon it has to be a problem with Mail.


If I force Rebuild the FastMail Inbox (in Apple Mail) the missing messages turn up.


Anybody got any idea what may be going wrong?


Thanks.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

Yes, first thing I did was talk to them and they had a few suggestions how to solve the problem (which didn't work).


Because my iPad is syncing OK I suspect the problem is Apple Mail.


I rebuilt my Trash as a test yesterday and before it reported 5815 messages with 0 unread - then after it reported 10670 messages with 49 unread.


When I rebuilt my Inbox it reported 1637 messages with 66 unread - and then after rebuilding 1597 messages with 96 unread (a total of 10 messages less - which is a bit disturbing?).


But thanks anyway.
