If you have been checking email using both machines indiscriminately,
then essentially, you can't sync if this is a POP server. That is why
IMAP was invented - to solve this problem (with IMAP, the mail is held
on the server and essentially mirrored to the local computers). If you
don't have an IMAP account, then what you can do is appoint one computer
or the other Master at all times and overwrite the database on machine 2
with the database on machine 1 when you wish to transfer mastery to
machine 2 (and you must remember which machine is master, and never
check your mail from the non-master machine). m.
