When I delete mail on one device does not sync across all devices

I just went thru and deleted almost 900 emails on my MacBook Air (Big Sur) and on my other devices it is acting as if I did not delete a singe one.. What is causing this

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.6

New iCloud Session:

On the other devices, sign out of iCloud, and then sign back in. Perhaps it all needs to resync?


900 eMails:

Note that 900 eMails is lots of data. So, on a mobile device, it may take a bit longer, not having a strong of a processor as that on your Mac.
