Undocumented feature (maybe) for Email syncro

This is awesome but I don't know why it's doing this but my iPhone and Macs are doing this:

I have a cable modem email address that is a POP account.  The most annoying thing is that previously I would get a few spam emails to the POP account, not my IMAP iCloud email.

 

The iCloud emails (IMAP) if I read or deleted them, that would be reflected on my Macs.  Now the miscellaneous spam/or other emails, I get, on the POP account, are synchronized on my Macs/and iPhone, which all run iOS 8.1 or 10.10!  Basically if I delete them on any device they are gone on the others!

 

Freakin' awesome!!

 

I wasn't expecting this behavior at all, but it's there, YES! YES!! YES!!!

 

I didn't do anything to set this up so I don't know what to tell you to do to activate this but it seems to be automatically turned on.  

 

AWESOME!!

    Seems like iCloud is incorporating and syncing other mail accounts to via its server, on a first look.

     

    Anyone else notice this behaviour?

    I believe I read an article about some guy complaining about it as a breach of security, so it seems like it’s real.
