Gmail not pulling read messages. WTF?

[AxeYrCat]

Hi. Despite being pretty new to the forum, I'd like to assert that I'm not a total idiot, even though this problem has me feeling that way.


I searched, and I didn't find any info on the issue, so I'm wondering if I'm just missing something blatantly obvious (bringing us back to me being a total idiot, and if that's the case, I sincerely apologize).


For whatever reason, my Gmail account won't pull messages that I've already read. I know it's not a setting in Gmail, because I check it on multiple mail clients at work and home on multiple computers, and all of them pull my read messages as well as unread ones.

Why the crap doesn't my Touch want to bring in the read ones? Hell, even my Mogul (POS that it was) didn't do behave this way....

What gives?

What am I missing?

What do I need to change?


Thanks in advance, and sorry for apparently being the total idiot that I didn't think I was...
