Email on iPhone and iPad

Is there a way to link these devices so that when I delete an email from one it deletes the email on everything?  I have to delete the same email three times.  Once from my phone, once from my ipad and once from my computer.

I must have missed something when setting it up because it could not be that hard to link it all together right?  RIGHT??

If you are using Verizon Email there is nothing you can do about it.  if you switch your email to gmail for example then you will be able to delete an email off one device and have it removed from them all.

Verizon mail uses POP which simple reads the email and places in on the device.  

Gmail use IMAP which allows you to delete on one device and it will delete on all.

That's about what I figured.  Thanks for the confirmation.  Kind of sad really.

Incredibly Lame, I'd say. 

There are posts from 2008 complaining about this,  and four years later!?!?!?!?!?
