For once I agree with Keith, set up the IETF's IMAP server in your

That works for folk who use a single machine to process all their

Works less well for those of us who switch between three primary
machines
(desktop, laptop, tablet) during the day and multiple secondaries
(phones).
If you use the same account to log in from all your devices, the IMAP
server should remember what you've already seen. I realize reality
doesn't always match theory here.
Works in both theory and practice for me. I read the IETF IMAP server on
my Mac using MailMate and on my iPad and Android phone using their
respective built-in clients. Just log in with your datatracker account.
The IETF IMAP server happily keeps track of all of the read/unread
flags.
Phil, have you actually tried this and had problems?
