Automatically delete unused email accounts

I am running Sun ONE Messaging Server 5.2 on Solaris.
How can I automatically detect and delete email accounts that have not been accessed in the last 60 days?
Please advice.

If you mean by accessed, the user hasn't logged-in to check their E-mail, you'd probably have to write a script to parse the pop or imap logs in msg-instance/log.
If you write it in perl, it would be fairly straight forward. Perl has some very nice date/time parsing routines.
I did a quick check of the schema reference and found nothing related to password expiration.
Also, this is often considered an external maintenance issue. Along with an E-mail account, users will typically get a Unix or Windows system account. When the user's system account is deleted, the mail administrator should be notified to delete the user's mail account. We have scripts that perform creation and deletion of accounts.

I accidentally deleted an email account. How can I get it back?

I was clearing out my unused email accounts, and accidentally deleted my major account. How can I get it back? It has all my most important information and has been the master account for my business!

I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

I've wondered about this issue as well. I have multiple email accounts, some old ones that I don't use much, others setup for support of particular projects/groups.
I have no idea how and/or why some notes are linked to a particular account.
I'd much prefer to have the ability to link all of them to an account of my choosing, thus when emailing from a note tied to a specific email account, that account would automatically be used to perform that email.
But more importantly, why can't we be allowed to create 'folders' that function the same way as the Finder on my Mac. This file structure could then be accessed by every iOS app and device.
This type of file structure would be a god-send for the camera roll on my phone. I HATE having all my pictures in one huge clump (cloud?)! After all, who wants to live under a cloud all the time?

Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password. On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo.

What type of account did you set-up on the iPad, POP, IMAP, the items on your iPad could have downloaded off the server or you will need wait awhile for the message to update to the iPad.

How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?

Hello all,
How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?
When I go here: Mail > Preferences Mail > Accounts
I got the message that I needed to delete it from my Internet Accounts.
When I go here: System Preferences > Internet Accounts > select the account >
I cannot select or click the minus sign on the bottom left to delete the account because it does not appear in the list.
Yet the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
The email account no longer appears in the left column where all my email accounts are in Apple Mail as I have deleted that domain and no longer use it, so the email was deleted at the server level. However, again, the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
This is driving me bananas!
Thank you for any help you can provide!
~ Angela

If you haven't already done so, please quit and relaunch Mail. See whether the account goes away.

How can I delete an email account on my iPod that doesn't exist

I Need to delete an email account on my iPod that doesnt exist but it keeps coming up - why ?

Got it!
In the Settings there is a Restrictions portion that was toggled on. I entered my passcode and under "Allow Changes" I toggled the Accounts tab to "On". Then went bact to the Mail, Contacts, Calendars tab and was allowed to delete the account.

Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer. Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server. The new password is working on my home computer. I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.

I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.
Thank you,

I can't delete an email account that is saved in "profiles"

I want to delete an email account and start over. Sounds easy, right? No. There is no "delete" option when I click on the account. Othere email accounts, yes, but not this one. At the bottom of a screen it says these settings are in my "profiles". But I don't know where that "profile" is. Please have mercy on this guy who is running out of patience.

You can't delete an iTunes accounr/Apple ID. All you can do is stop using it. What you can do is change your Apple ID password, as well as the password for your email account. That will put an end to this.
