Multiple email clients not in sync

Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if this is an issue with dovecot or my various email
clients, or my settings.
I'm running 2.2.13 and I have Thunderbird on my desktop and K at mail on my
android phone. In theory if I delete email on one it should delete it on
the other. It does delete it on the server - but the other client isn't
always "aware" of it. Same thing sometimes with read messages. I read on
one device but the other didn't know it's read unless I shut down and
restart the app.
Not knowing the details of how this all works I'm assuming there is some
form of notification that goes on in the background so as to let other
clients know what other clients do so they can sync up. And that where
my setup isn't working consistently.
Maybe my expectations are just too high? Maybe I don't have things set
up correctly?
What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
