BT Emails and Yahoo Mail App

I have been looking at the changes BT are bringing in when they move emails away from Yahoo. I currently use the Yahoo Mail app on my iphone. BT say they are not going to be introducing an app when emails are moved across. Does anyone know of any alternative apps? I do not want to use the email facility on the iphone as I would like access to my inbox and sent items and I would rather not have to keep sigining in to webmail to check for emails, the Yahoo App alerts to new emails.
The only option I can think of so far is to start again with a new Yahoo Mail account but then I would need to keep my BT email address with all my historic emails.

You need to set it up to use IMAP. See this link how to do it
http://www.names.co.uk/support/new/email/1182-how_to_setup_an_imap_account_on_iphone_ipad_iphone5.ht...
and use these settings if it does not set it up automatically when you select Yahoo

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox. Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions. It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app. But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone. And not in the Deleted box. Just gone. Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up. Please help.
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
Next...
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
Select All = command A

i found out my prob!
here is what you do.
go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
click "software updates".
click "installed software"
if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
go to mail.
click "mail" at the top.
click "preferences...".
find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

College Email and my Mail App?

Well i just recently started at Riverside Community College and well they give you an email address for classes but its a Windows Live Address that ends with "@student.rcc.edu" how can i add this to my Mail app
and possibly my iPod Touch Mail App??
is it possible???
Thnxz

Hello there,
Yes it should possible on both your Mac and iPod Touch. I myself attend college and have my school email set up on both devices.
I would suggest talking with your Campus IT people first, so you can learn what kind of email account it is as well as the name of the email server to connect to and any other various settings and information you would need to know in order to set it up properly.
For now I would start there.

TS3899 When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address. This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account. It is frustrating and poor design.

When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps on my iPad, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address. This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account. It is frustrating and poor design, especially since I had already checked the From: address.
iPad 4 running iOS 8.1.3

3rd party email addresses have to be deleted on every synmced mac product, although I have 1and1.co.uk and my imac updatetes the mails in that account from mac mail.
Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

How can I have my emails on iPhone4 and and the mail app on Macbook?

I currently have a Yahoo email address which I had before having my iPhones...and now I have a Macbook Pro. How can I get my emails to be visible on my iPhone mail app and the mail app on the Macbook? Before I attempt it, if I add this mail account to the mail app on the Macbook will my mails then download and not be visible on the iPhone?

You need to make sure your Yahoo! account is configured as IMAP on all devices/computers you want to access it from:

Hi I want to attach word documents to yahoo mail app and some job portals using iPad I don't know how to attach it can u ppl help me thru this issue

would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I deleted 4 accounts and the mail app keeps trying to contact the old account server causing thousands of emails to be processed and causing my ISP to charge my account 20-30GB of data. Why is this happening and how do I stop this activity?

The "LocalAccount" is "On My Mac" and doesn't correspond to an account on a mail server. That all I can tell you from the information provided.

I resaved a draft email in yahoo mail on my ipod touch and it just disappeared - how do I get it back? And why did this happen?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

Has anyone had issues with the Yahoo Mail app?

A couple of months ago, I noticed my battery draining quickly while I was at work (data, not wifi) and not long after that I received a notice that I had used 75% of my data in less than 2 weeks! My daughter and I share 10GB data and we rarely use more than 4GB total.
Called tech support, realized it was YAHOO MAIL draining my juice and data, Support suggested uninstalling and reinstalling the app thinking maybe there was a glitch in updates causing it to constantly sync everything,. I uninstalled the app, waited until my billing cycle had ended and reinstalled it.
Same thing happened within days.

lucychik,
We definitely want you to be worry free when it comes to your data usage. The great thing is that we have narrowed it down to the Yahoo Mail application. Your device comes with a native email application. I would recommend removing the Yahoo Mail app and making use of the native email app to pull your emails.

Configure or deleting and account mail app

Im Trying to delete an email account on mail app and i reboot the app still there.and i can not change any setting.

I am having the exact same problem, and it seems to come and go. Sometimes it seems to work normally, other times it works as you describe; right now it is acting as you describe, and I can't delete or move messages! I am running Mail 3.4 on Leopard 10.5.4 I am getting very frustrated with mail.app, as I have never had so many issues with any other mail program. I have 3 account .Mac, gmail, and yahoo (the last is POP, the others IMAP).

Cannot send email from the Mail App?

I've had an izymail subscription for 1 year and just renewed it last week. I could never send an email from my Mail App without a window popping up stating "izymail cannot connect to the server" and the sending bar (along the bottom of the screen) just freezes and will not send.
I've a Hotmail account linked up to izymail. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

I fixed my problem - I deleted my email account on my iPhone, then tried to setup a new account. I had a few problems setting it up. It wouldn't recognize the incoming or outgoing servers and I lost my email altogether for a few hours. Then I changed every setting possible and finally figured out that I had 2-3 "Other SMTP Servers" as well as my "Primary Server". Once I deleted the Other SMTP Servers, my email worked and i'm able to send emails now!
I also think changing the "Server Port" number helped solve my problem also, and making sure "Use SSL" was turned off.

TS1843 Not receiving apple mail. Connection Doctor says not connected to server. Yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

Not receiving apple mail. Checked connection Doctor. Not connected to server, yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

No, I have a Mac and my email connects via our pacbell account we've had for years. However, something in the Preferences/Accounts is not correct I am guessing. Also, it asks for the password and if I put it in and click save through general or viewing, it's NOT saving it and still not allowing me to get email. My husband tried reading about this through our AT&T acct and said to change the incoming server to imap.mail.yahoo.com and outgoing smtp.mail.yahoo;[email protected], but now I can't receive or send any email on my Mac. In advanced not sure if it should be Port of 465 or 900 something or other and SSL checked or not. I called AT&T and they want to take over my machine by charging $15/mos for a year to fix this. Ridiculous.
So, everytime prior to yesterday, when my husband messed around with it, I was getting a POP needs password box, typed in my password, but to no avail..Then it Keychain password popped up and assumed it was the same, but there's no way to change or modify it even using the new password my husband set up through AT&T. I am at a complete loss.
I can access mail through yahoo mail and it takes me to AT&T Yahoo Mail, but no contacts are there so needless to say this is a pain.
I appreciate any assistance you can give me so I can get back on my email as I have for 4 years.
Thanks Hackintosh...I look forward to hearing from you....you can use the email above and it will come to me through my yahoo web page....Thanks again and let me know if you need any other information. If you respond on here, I may not get the answer from you as I didn't know you responded until I came on discussions. THanks
