Mail "Inbox" by default

How can I set MAIL to open to the "inbox" by default?
If I am viewing the "JUNK" folder and close mail…the next time I open mail it will open to the Junk folder.
If I am viewing the "TRASH" folder and close mail…the next time I open mail it will open to the Trash folder.
Is there a way to set mail up to always open to the Inbox?
Charles

Select the Inbox before you close it.

Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"

Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"
I have five e-mail accounts linked to my Mail app (an Exchange account, an IMAP account, and three Outlook POP accounts. Everytime I close the app (close the app meaning double tap the Home button and close it) and reopen it, the Mail app opens the first Inbox on the list. Unfortunately, it is an inbox I rarely use, the Exchange account. I constantly have to press back to go to my "All Mailboxes" screen and then select the correct account Inbox from there. Of course, if I don't fully close the app, but rather tap the home button once and reopen it, the app opens where it left off.
Is there an easier way to make the app open to "All Mailboxes" screen by default vs. the first account listed alphabetically? Or, perhaps the app opening the Exchange account because it thinks it has a priority over the IMAP and POP accounts?
I searched this on Google but all I could find were forums from 2010 that were never answered.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you TomJones75. When I posted this initially, I was running iOS 6.1.3 and not iOS 7. I don't think editing the order of the inboxes was an option back on iOS 6.1.3. With your tip, I was able to re-order my inboxes but it still defaults to the Exchange account when opened.
I.e. first account listed under mailboxes is now an Outlook account and the 2nd is an Exhannge account. Mail still defaults to the Exhange account even though the Outlook is my default email address for the iPhone.
Good tip though! Thanks!

Can i make all inboxes the default that opens each time i open mail

Can I make "all inboxes" the default that opens each time I check mail?

Agreed! I think it's absurdly rediculous that it can't be set to open by default on the "All Inboxes" screen! This SHOULD be an option! It's a huge pain to be forced to exit a "single accounts inbox" then go back into the "all inboxes" screen. It's redundant. LOL. I was really hoping that they would add this option in ios 7...

I just rebuilt my mail inbox, 1 iCloud account and 2 other imap accounts, and everything is gone. Nothing on the remote servers either and on all my iCloud sync mobiles. How can i recover all my emails? Thanks

How do I permanently delete email messages from my Mail inbox?

Ever since I migrated from Mobile Me to iCloud, I can't seem to delete messages from my MacBook Mail inbox. They just reappear seconds later. What do I need to do to delete them permanently? I've tried looking in the settings, preferences, accounts, etc. I've also made sure to select the "hide deleted messages" from the View tab. Please help! I am sure that there is a simple solution. They are also staying on my iPhone and iPad.

Settings > General > Spotlight Search > Uncheck Messages
It's that or Restore the device as New with iTunes
Hope that helps

How do you create a rule to forward/redirect emails to another account (eg: gmail) BUT, I DO NOT want emails to then appear in Mac Mail inbox?

I cannot close down my primary email account as it's attached to my current modem.
So it will have to remain open BUT I don't any emails going to this address.
I have created a gmail account and want any emails redirected to this account but wanted to ensure they don't also appear in the original Mac Mail Inbox.
Any suggestions?

Changing the password as you describe only changes the password that your Mac sends to the mail server(s), not the password that the mail server(s) expect(s).
If the email account is "attached to [your] modem," it is supplied by your ISP (Internet Service Provider), and you must change the expected password through your ISP. Depending on your ISP, this may involve calling them on the phone, visiting a web site, or even using a special app. It may also require proof of your right to administer your email account.
After you have changed what your ISP's mail server(s) expect(s), you will need to change the password(s) your system sends in Account Information (for receiving) and Edit SMTP server list (for sending).

How do I set google mail as my default rather than apple mail

Hello All - Stumped at how to avoid having Mail be the default - which seems to be the default of choice on my desktop. However I do not really use Mail, but rather gmail. Unsure of how to go about this, since I do not have a reader for my gmail. Thanks to all you know - Carlyle

You could try gmail Notifier for Mac. Text below from link (Frequently asked Questions).
Making Gmail your default mail application
You can designate Gmail as your default mailto handler. This means that when you click on any hyperlinked email address, a Gmail compose window will open so you can send a message to that address from Gmail.
To do so in Windows:
Download the Gmail Notifier.
Right-click the Notifier icon in your system tray, and select Options.
Check the box next to Use Gmail for internet mailto: links.
Click OK.
If you decide later that you don't want to use Gmail as your default email application, simply uncheck the box.And, if you're using a Mac, you can set your default mailto handler by following these steps:
Download the Google Notifier.
Open the Notifier.
Click the Mail icon on the Menu bar and go to Preferences...
Select the Gmail tab and choose Gmail as the program from the Compose mail in drop-down menu.
Note: The Notifier is currently available in English only.

No messages seen in e.mail inbox I pad2?

No messages or photos seen in the e.mail inbox of my I pad2. Only header and title.

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Mail Inbox only doesn't work. Any ideas? And Newstand app remains incomplete with blue bar on the bottom. Any ideas?

Only my Mail Inbox doesn't work with iOS5. Sent, Bulk, Trash, and Draft works fine. I don't receive new emails, yet if I go to see my mail via Safari/Yahoo/Mail all the new emails are there. So it is clearly an iOS5 issue. I did a hard restart holding the On/Off and Home key, I delete the account and reinstalled, i disenabled iCloud and nothing seems to work. Any other ideas or do I wait for Apple to release 5.01 to fix all the mess they made.

All seems okay with host, user name and password. Server port is fine, though my 3G model has has multiple servers and the Wi-Fi version only has one. I even brought it to an Apple store while traveling in The Netherlands. They had no other suggestions.

My safari is working Internet.. My ipad2 is still working to receive my new messages via my mail inbox. Something miss in my mail preference? How to fix it?
Regards lisa

Here's my reply to another discussion on the general procedures for setting up a Mail account.
But without the specifications defined by your ISP no one can tell you any more specific details. They should have a web page somewhere (or call them) that supplies all the relevant information:
Incoming (pop) mail server
mail login user name and password
pop port
ssl requirements
authentication type (password?)
Outgoing (smtp) mail server
smtp port
ssl requirements
authentication type (password?)
mail login user name and password

Lost mail inbox after sync - help!

After a recent new version of iTunes was downloaded onto the iMac, the my iPhone (version 4.2.10) mail inbox was empty after the first sync. The only way I can find to retrieve the emails is to resend them to myself. This is at least the 3rd time this has happened, although I honestly don't recall if the other 2 were on the first sync after a change to iTunes. I did not change any settings on the phone, but it sure seems as if I have something set incorrectly. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks.

Mac mail inbox spinning wheel adjacent icloud inbox

my Mac mail inbox, adjacent the icloud tray has a continious grey spinning wheel, no new mail is coming in.
Also there is a grey clock adjacent Reminders/Notes/iCloud? Are they related; how to fix?

Hi Eric,
This is my very first post because I can usually fix things on my own, but I was freaking out a bit. I did so many things to mess up my mail, including changing an IMAP account to a POP account, applying rules that were not very smart, and when things started to go wrong, I deleted the POP account. Essentially, I pulled all my emails off the server, put them in a folder on my Mac, then deleted that folder by deleting the account. But, I appreciate your reply and potential solution. I'm always happy to learn more about my Mac, and now I know where I can look (home/user folder Library/Mail) should this happen again, so thanks for that. I was just going to leave a reply to my own post;
I panicked, but (I think) I have fixed this. I used Time machine to restore my inbox. Suffice it to say I have a much better understanding of Apple's Mail app and how careful you need to be with setting Rules. <—— (Very embarrassed face)

screen should open and user has to see & interact the ouput of that ALV Report.how can i achieve this without webdynpro
and workflow.

Hi Asif
When I said 'pdf/rtf/html/htmlcss', I meant any one of the above.
You need to run the report as:
rwrun60 <report_name> <connection_string> desformat=pdf destype=mail desname=<email_id> batch=yes
In case you want to mail as HTMLCSS, replace PDF in DESFORMAT option in the above command to:
DESFORMAT=HTMLCSS.
