How to sync email folders? HELP!

I own an iPhone and just bought a new iPad. Used the iPhone to set up the iPad and added my email server info. I’m getting and sending email just fine. However, while my iPhone still displays all of my email folders, I can’t see the same folders on my iPad.


I thought everything was supposed to look and act the same across both devices. I’ve already gone through and compared every setting, but could not resolve the issue. How can I fix this and be able to see my email folders.

Thanks for your advice!

Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and select the account you wish to sync. On the next screen, scroll down to Advanced. You will now see a section called "Mailbox Behaviours" which lists your Drafts, Sent and Deleted folders, select whichever you want to sync.
