Why is  my IPhone 3GS deleleting email messages?

My phone has started deleting my emails even though I have it mark to ask before deleting

How do you know it's deleting them? Note that there's a setting for the number of messages shown at one time (up to 200), and for Exchange accounts there's also a setting for how far back to sync mail (no limit, or times up to a month).

  • Have an iphone 3GS, 2 email accounts.  My work email account used to work.  Now if I send any emails from this account it only appears in my sent box.  Recipients internal and external do not receive.  IT person cannot figure why occurring.  Any insight?

    Have a iphone 3GS; 2 email accounts.  one is for work.  It used to work fine until about Feb 2011.  Now when i send emails from my work account it only appears in the sent file.  Recipients do not get email.
    IT person looked at it & cannot find why this is happening.
    Any insight why this is occurring??

    This has nothing to do with your iPhone.
    If a message is in the account's Sent mailbox, this means the message was successfully sent. If a message cannot be sent for whatever reason, it will remain in the Outbox.
    What happens to a message after it was successfully sent has nothing to do with the email client or computer/device used to send the message.

  • Why is my iphone 3gs using excessive data?

    why is my iphone 3gs using excessive data?

    Check your (push) notifications.
    Settings > Notifications > Look at what applications are pushing information to your phone. Turn off the applications' notifications that you don't care about.
    Settings > Email > Check how often your phone is checking email and sending it to you. Push will use the most data. Data usage goes down from there.
    Check your running applications.
    From your home screen, double-press the home (physical) button > Hold down an icon until they shake and the "X"s appear on their corners. Hit the "X"s to close out the application.
    Some applications can continue to use your data while running the background even though you are not actively using the application.
    Are you using YouTube?
    YouTube, and any other video application, uses a lot of data.
    Are you using Pandora?
    Music applications can also use up data though not as much as video.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • After downloading IOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5, my email messages are not automatically coming through.  I have to open my mailbox and wait for messages to download.  Do I need to reset or change settings for mail?  Please help.

    After downloading IOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5, my email messages are not coming through automatically. Before, my email messages would come through automatically and my iPhone would alert me each time an emial message was recevied.   I now have to open my mail in-box and wait for my email messages to download.  Do I need to reset or change my mail settings?  This issue is delaying my abiliy to receive and respond to email messages in a timely manner.
    Please Help.

    Hi Chris.  Thanks, for the suggestions re: my email issues.  They were helpful and yes I did check all items you referenced.  I even contacted Apple support and spent about 40 minutes on phone checking all settings.  However, after all these efforts, my mail and calendar issues were not resolved.  Apple Support finally recommended deleting the mail account and then reloading it - and it worked!  I am now receiving my emails and calendar appts. in real time again.
    Just wanted to share this in case anyone elest has a similar problem with mail/calendar after downloaing i.O.S. 8.1 onto iPhone 5.
    Thanks, again.

  • Why is one iphone displaying the text messages of the other 2 iphones in my house?

    Why is one iphone displaying the text messages of the other 2 iphones in my house?

    That would be imessage and not text message.
    As stated by sberman, it's because the users are sharing apple id.
    On each devices - settings - message - send&receive- remove or uncheck the apple ids.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs shut down when battery gets to 80%?  have installed new battery and nothing changes?

    Why does my iphone 3gs shut down when battery shows 80%.  a couple of months ago is shut down at 60% but has continually gotten worse.  this was before 5.0.  i took it to a repair man and he tried a used battery, a new battery, and the original battery.  nothing helped.  5.01 didnt help either.  What is my problem?

    Fully discharge the battery (till it shuts down and won't turn on) and then fully recharge it (100%).  This will recalibrate the battery meter.  You may need to do this a few times.

  • My iPhone 3GS displayed a message that it was overheated, now it wont turn on except for the Apple logo, and iTunes doesn't recognize it!

    My iPhone 3GS displayed a message saying it was over heating and to turn it off.
    I turned it off and the next day that I turned it back on, it wont go passed the main Apple screen.
    It had a message to re-connect to iTunes, then that the IMEI and SIM were unknown.
    Now it wont turn on at all!!

    The terms of service of the Apple Support Communities prevent us from helping anyone with a jailbroken phone.
    You're on your own.  Good luck.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).
