I have 2 email accounts on my phone and since updating to ios 5 one of the accounts is always downloading 50 messages, this happening even after deletion, my other account is working fine. Any ideas, please?

The site actually just tells you to reset the device, reset network settings nothing new.
 
I hit this too with a gmail account that I’d accessing through a POP server, and fixed it:
  • I signed into the 50 message account with a broswer. None of the messages that account had ever recieved (more than 1000) had been archived, they were all still in the inbox! So,
  • I selected all 1000-odd messages, and archived them all. My phone then stopped showing the 50 messages for that account. ...but why had it been happening? Looking at the gmail settings,
  • I switched to the “Forwarding and POP/IMAP” tab. Under “POP download” there’s a line that says “2. When messages are accessed with POP”. This had been set to “keep Gmail’s copy in the inbox”. I changed it to “archive Gmail’s copy” and hit the Save Settings button at the bottom.
Hope this helps!
