email is stored on what's called a remote server (hotmail.com, gmail.com, Yahoo.com etc...). Accessing email is done through your computer or mobile device which is called client-side. Your computer or mobile device will access the remote server via a client-side program such as a email program or web browser.

During configuration of an email program, you have the option to "sync email". By default, all email will remain on the remote server for later access. The "sync email" option will ensure whatever action is performed client-side also occurs on the remote server.

EXAMPLE: If "sync email" is disabled and you delete an email from your computer and/or mobile device, it will still be retained on the server for later access. If "sync email" is enabled, when you perform a task such as deleting an email on your computer and/or mobile device, it will purge the email from the server and you will no longer have access to it.

Syncing is short of Synchronizing. That means to make things the same. If you synch your email on your phone, it is matching up with what is on your email server.
