Thank you for taking a look at this and giving an update. I'm using
the default "E-Mail" program on the Galaxy S3. The E-Mail program,
IMHO, is a little drab and makes me wonder if they just whipped it
together.
In the meantime, I've just been using K9Mail with Dovecot and it keeps
everything in sync. It would be nice if the updates were working, but
I have found a work-around for it.
It would be interesting if others with a S3 have the same problem.
Thanks again for your time in looking into this issue.
