C3-00 Mail Delete Problem

Hi there guys. I have a Nokia C3-00 for quite sometime, but I'm facing a problem that is kinda serious.
My best friend used her mail once on my phone and I can't delete it, it just keeps like "Deleting, please wait..." and it doesn't delete at all. I already tried on my own and it works fine. Can somebody help me? I'll try updating my software (again) and I'll edit this post later. Thanks in advance.

Hi ExLithium,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
Sounds like there may be something wrong with your phone settings.  If you cannot delete the mailbox directly, you can always do a soft reset on your phone which will reset all settings on your phone, including the existing mailboxes. It will not remove any of your personal data, but it is advisable to make a full backup with Nokia Suite first.
To soft reset your phone, just dial *#7780# on your phone followed by security code 12345 (unless you have changed it). After a while the device will boot up and you'll be able to change your settings and set up your email.

  • Mail Deletion Problem

    I have two email messages sitting on my Iphone. They were sent to me and are very, very large (pictures.)
    I cannot delete them. Everytime I try to delete one of them, the phone hangs. If I try to restart the phone, it does not shut down, so I need to do a reset.
    After the reset, the two messages are there again.
    Any advice as to how to get these two large messages off the phone without going thru the normal deletion process?
    I am wondering if I am just not being patient enough when purging one of them and should let the phone sit for a while. Currently, I am only letting it sit about 5'
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    The Iphone downloads emails, but doesn't delete them. I delete them from a home system, but they are now gone off the server.
    I am trying to delete them on the Iphone thru the normal process of tapping the delete key, then tapping the messages, actually just one at a time.
    That is when the phone hangs...I am assuming because the messages are so large.
    I have also deleted everything out of the delete bin first.
    I am wondering if I am just not waiting long enough. I guess I could give it 20-30'
    I do get a restart by resetting the phone, so I do get back, but then of course, the emails are still there.

  • I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that (settings/usage) it was using 900  mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.

    I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that it (settings/usage) was using 900+ mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, turned the phone off and back on, downloaded any remaining mail on the server to Outlook on my computer, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.
    Background: I recently (December) bought an ipad and set up icloud for contacts and calendar, but NOT mail. My email provider is Verizon. I use computer, iphone, and ipad to check my email; eventually I download it from the server using Outlook on the computer and then delete any remaining emails from the phone and ipad. I can't find info on this problem anywhere.

    Howdy there COUGAR444,
    It sounds like your iPad all of a sudden seems to be restarting out of no where. If you haven't called AppleCare yet, I would start with quitting either the app that seems to be causing the issue, or all the apps if a single doesn't seem to be the culprit. 
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes, then restore it as new and verify that it works. 
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    Sterling

  • Problem in Mail deletion in POP3

    Hi
    I am using Pop3.
    I opened folder using
    folder.open (Folder.READ_WRITE);
    setting flag for deletion
    mimeMessages.setFlag (Flags.Flag.DELETED, true);
    then in finally block closing the folder
    if (mailbox.isConnected ()) {
    if(folder != null && folder.isOpen()) {
    try {
    folder.close (true);
    sometimes it is not deleting the messages.
    Please suggest something.
    Thanks

  • Verizon mail deleted from server is not deleted from IPAD2 but works fine on Android

    I have both an Android phone and an IPAD.  This Android (RAZR) and my previous one (Droid2) worked fine.   Mail deleted from the server is also deleted from the phone.  Deleted from phone would delete from server.  Worked great.  On IPAD, when setting up the Verizon mail account, it defaults to POP and I can set it to delete from server when removed from IPAD.  However, mail deleted from the server is not deleted from the IPAD and so I have to remove it manually (a second time).  Why does it work on Android and not on IPAD?  Settings on Android appear to also be for POP.  Can anyone help with this?  It's too hard to believe that with so many people using IPADs, that this is such a problem.   I've read that Verizon isn't supporting IMAP, but how in the world is the Android phone working?
    MrBigHands

    Any mail service POP downloads a copy of the message to the phone. It would then need to be deleted from the device itself. What you are referring to where its deleted in both places is an IMAP type email service.

  • Mac Mail deletes messages after 24 hours

    Mac Mail started deleting my messages after 24 hours 6 days ago. I believe this is a OSX Lion issue as I run 10.8.2 on my main machine (iMac 27 Dec 2010) but I also have an old iMac G5 (2005) running OS X 10.5.8, and on ths machine my messages are not deleted. An additional problem is that new messages to all accounts remain marked as unread for less than an hour on the new machine but remained marked unread until they are read on the old machine. My sent messages are not deleted.
    I use a private email address from my own domain for all of my emails, except for a very few on BTinternet and Yahoo adresses. My webmail for my domain also is having emails deleted after 24 hours. I have spoken to the domain host customer care (very helpful) but they cannot spot the issue. And as it doesn't happen with OS X 10.5.8 it seems to me that it cannot be either the host or my current provider BT. However, I have only switched to BT recently and this deletion problem only started once their service was fully up and operating ( which was a long and messy process leaving me utterly disenchanted with BT).
    I also have an iPhone 4S using iOS6 which doesn't delete but also doesn't show new messages as unread on my private domain address. On the iPhone new messages to my BT and Yahoo accounts show as unread.
    I have time machine running with an external hard drive so I can see old messages there but thats a laborious procedure and the whole thing is doing my head in. Anyone got any explanations or, better still, solutions.

    Tim Cutting wrote:
    Thanks for a very quick reply - and this is how this mailbox is set up.
    I have also had a bit of help and advice from a knowlegable friend and he thinks the source of the deletions may be that the account is an IMAP account on the new machine and my iphone but a POP3 accont on my old machine. I have turned off the old machine to see if this changes the behaviours on the other machines.
    This is a very good start.

  • HT6147 iOS 7.0.6 update - mail sending problems & uncontrollable apps closing

    Hi all!
    I’m having problems on two iPads after installing iOS 7.0.6 update. The first one is “sending mails via Exchange account and gmail is a NO GO!” an the second is “closing apps from time to time uncontrollably”. With iOS 7.0.4 this worked fine.
    Anyone with same or similar problems? Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    I already tried rebooting and deleting/adding accounts again in mail app with no positive effect.
    Since iPads are used by company’s managers where seamless emailing is crucial function, this made iPads expensive bricks and nothing more.
    The rest of iPads are to stay on the older version till this is fixed or workaround is found.
    Thanks

  • E52 email delete problem

    While on other Nokia phones (such as N97), on trying to delete a received email, an option appears asking "delete ONLY PHONE" or "delete from Phone AND SERVER", on E52 there is no such option.
    As a result, if user is out of office and deletes the received messages, then the messages are deleted not only from phone but FROM SERVER too
    I already lost valuable emails this way, cause I retrived them on my E52 being out of office, then deleted them and when I went back to office all emails were missing from the server.
    I cannot believe that Nokia did not imply this option to such a business phone as E52.
    Do I miss something?
    Any answer from official person and/or users who faced the same problem?
    Thanking in advance for your replies,
    Konstadinos

    Thank you for your quick reply.
    Unfortunately, when I read a mail on my E52 and don't delete it from the phone, when I return to my office and retrive my mails on outlook, it does NOT show as read.
    Furthermore if I delete it on the phone, it does NOT go to the deleted folder of outlook.
    In case that I mark all messages on the phone as "unread" (after reading them) and then delete them from the phone (E52), then when I return to office and connect to outlook, all deleted messages do NOT appear either to the incoming or to the deleted mail folder.
    My concern is why Nokia did not imply on E52 the same mail delete method as in N97 (asking if user likes to delete it only from phone or both from phone and server).
    This becomes a great problem, when the mailbox service is a gmail, or hotmail one, where each time you connect to your mailbox from the phone, it retrives EVERY mail residing in the incoming mail folder and if you make the mistake to delete any of them, it permanently dissapears from the mailbox

  • Mail app problem

    My wife and I have seperate user accounts on the macbook. When I ran the mail app in her account it asked for some set up info, which we entered based on what was being used in her imac. Didn't do much with it for a day or two and then when I came back to it I was unable to connect to the defined POP server (Connection Doctor window showed POP login failing). After fiddling around a bit with no success I decided to delete the mail account info (via the - button from mail->preferences->acounts) and create a new one. The account info appeared to be deleted then but we got a multicolored spinning wheel that woudl not go away and ultimately had to force quit the mail app. Now when the mail app is launched all we get is the spinning wheel and all we can do is force quit the mail app. I tried to find out how to run the mail setup assistant again but could not find any info on how to run it or where to find it. All I found was info that said it would run the first time mail app was run.
    Dose anyone have any pointers or know what I should do to resolve this mail app problem?
    Thanks
    Craig

    There are several threads on this in the forums. Search for "Mail spinning beach ball."
    Essentially, there is something wrong with the Mail folder in ~/Library/Mail/. Move the Mail folder to the desktop and restart Mail. It will create a new Mail folder. You can then import anything that was in the old mailboxes.

  • Mail deleting my mail!

    I have no junk mail filtering, no rules, but Mail deletes my email and it is not in the trash or in the junk mail folder! I open the Mail application and I see my messages and then watch as they disappear.
    any ideas?
    thanks

    Same problem here - noticed it first a couple of days ago.
    I do have a rule (just the default apple highlight one) and do have junk filtering on - but only "put into junk" not delete it.
    I have done some trials but frankly they weren't particularly revealing - I thought it was linked to having the system set to remove the messages from my POP server on download, but I'm not sure about that.
    It does only seem to affect the inbox folder - so ironically junk and deleted mail are kept...
    Strangely it seems happier now I have set up a second rule which copies every mail to a local folder called "localmail" - as a result of which the mail in the main inbox is kept as well as the new copy.
    This is very very frustrating, not least for the other users of my machine who are now concerned about logging in in case their mail archives are deleted also. Thankfully I didn't have too many sat in the inbox - and I have simply contacted those that have sent me to resend it.

  • Mail Connection Problems after latest Maverick Update

    My macbook pro contains the latest OS Maverick update (12/17/2013) and I am still having mail connection problems.
    Several times an hour the mail app is dropping the mail connection on all my accounts. I have to sign in to all my connections each time the connection drops. Does anyone think of a solution to this problem? Anyone else still having this problem with Maverick Mail connections?
    Thanks

    Same problem here. For a couple of weeks, I've had an error message that my accounts can't log in. I've gone thru the account prefs and made sure all settings are correct and set to Apple's suggested settings. Also getting double messages sometimes. Not all messages, but one or two will be doubled. This happens on my iPhone and Mac's. If I scroll the window the double message disappears.
    Also had lots of errors that mail can;t be deleted. I go back and delete the message again and it goes away.
    I kinda feel like this is Mavericks related since these issues were not happening under ML.

  • How I solved my Spotlight+ Mail indexing problem

    OK, so I thought I would post my solution to a stubborn indexing problem, for people who may have the same issue (and it does seem many people do).
    Problem: Spotlight index was unreliable. In particular, Spotlight was terrible at indexing mail. It could not find the messages by content that it would find by searching the "from" field, nor could it find those reliably. Unusable.
    What DID NOT work:
    -- adding and removing any folder whatsoever in the Privacy preferences of Spotlight. The index would rebuild, but with the same problems.
    -- doing this via terminal (e.g, using sudo mdutil -E /Volumes/MyHardDisk)
    -- using Onyx
    -- using Spotless
    -- simply reinstalling the system
    -- manually modifying the plist files inside the .spotlight folder to add and remove the folders that would not get indexed.
    What DID work:
    -- first, I reinstalled the system. That's not such a big deal. Upgrade up to 10.4.6
    -- then, I authorized the root user (that's probably not necessary) (this, you do by using Netinfo manager)
    -- Then, I deactivated the index (via terminal:
    sudo mdutil -i off /Volumes/MyHardDisk
    -- now the tricky part. This concerns Mail, in particular.
    I have a very complex mail folder (tens of thousands of messages). I noticed that inside each mail folder, I had two things that were not supposed to be there
    1. a copy of each folder.mbox which was empty, but with the same name without the extension .mbox. This is probably something that was created while importing mail from Panther to Tiger, for what I can tell.
    2. Most importantly, a file named ".index.ready". This also, apparently, was an old legacy coming from Panther. I suspect this was the main problem for the lack of indexing in Mail.
    Ok, so... I deleted these folders and files. If you have a complex structure of subfolders, you can delete the files with an Unix command by first cd to your mail folder, and then use
    find . -name \.index.r* -ok rm {} \;
    which will ask you confirmation before deleting each file.
    It was faster to remove the empty subfolders by hand, as they all had different names.
    -- Ok, at this point, I erased entirely the .Spotlight-V100 directory which stays at the root of your computer. You can do it with a rmdir command from the terminal or, as I did, you can login as root (remember, we activated root), use a utility that allows you to see hidden files (e.g., Tinkertool), and move it manually to the trash folder.
    Then I emptied the trash. For superstition, I restarted, and let the index be built again (that took about 5 hours in my computer, for an HD with about 60 gb occupied on it).
    Now everything seems to work perfectly fine. I don't know whether this procedure can be shortened, but I do know that nothing else worked for me. I thought I would post it here as I spent sooo much time to solve this problem, and furthermore, I found that none of the suggested solutions would work.
    OK, your responsibility to do it, if you want to do it. Hope nobody needs to!
    Best to you all,
    l.
      Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Thank you, thank you, thank you, Lucabo! Using ideas from your post, I also (at least for now) solved my Mail indexing problem. One day (not even after an upgrade) Mail just quit finding messages by content, even when I had open a message with that content!
    What I did:
    -- In System Preferences, told Spotlight to index only Mail (I just use grep from a Terminal window for everything else!)
    -- Ensured Mail app wasn't running
    -- Backed up my Library/Mail folder to an external disk
    -- Turned off indexing via Terminal (after sudo sh), with
    mdutil -i off /Volumes/MyHardDisk
    -- Deleted old files in my mailboxes (inside the whatever.mbox folders):
    .index.ready
    mbox
    tableofcontents
    content_index
    It was clear that mbox, tableofcontents, and content_index were left over from a previous version of mail - they hadn't been accessed since I upgraded.
    Note that I didn't delete the whatever.mbox folders (just the plain mbox file inside)!
    -- Deleted (in Terminal) the .Spotlight-V100 in the root directory
    -- Restarted my Mac. The indexing started itself. Since I had it set up to index only Mail, it took about 3-ish hours to finish (I have 100s of 1000s of emails in thousands of folders).
    After the indexing finished, all the test searches that I tried worked. From now on I will always be suspicious if search doesn't find anything!
    Also, I just checked - using the Spotlight field on the menu bar now works better too. When the Mail search problem showed up, I tried using the Spotlight field and the Spotlight window, but they would just flash up a few items, remove the list, over and over, sometimes with the beachball, then finally settle to an empty list. Now the Spotlight field seems to work.
    I infer that the Spotlight index gets corrupted, and that the Spotlight code doesn't notice that it's reading junk from the index...
    BTW, about the same time that search quit working, some emails in my Inboxes got highlighted with a dark brown background color. Have no idea why. They aren't marked as Junk (the junk messages have the text in the usual lighter brown). But, when I select a message with the dark brown highlight, mark it as junk, then mark it as not junk, the dark brown highlight goes away. On some occasions, just quitting Mail and restarting makes the dark brown highlights go away - but not always. Sigh... at least it's not a show stopper, even if it is ugly!
    Thanks again, Lucabo, for your post!

  • Two Related (?) file deleting problems in Finder and Time Machnine

    My internal drive is partition into two volumes. In the second one (the "non-boot" one), I was have trouble putting files in the trash that were locked. As I was tracking that down I coincidentally(?) started having another problem.
    I started getting a message that the files being put into the trash must be deleted immediately. I check permissions and I had read/write Privileges in the user account I'm normally logged into. However, If I logged into my administrator account, I could put things in the trash without deleting them. I noticed that ignore ownerships wasn't checked, so I checked that.
    That allowed my to put files into the trash without immediately deleting them. I went ahead and deleted the files I wanted to get rid of. However, I'm wondering if there was another issue because I am lead to understand that the ownership privileges shouldn't have necessitated checking "ignore ownerships"?
    Also, I had trouble deleting the backups of those files and folders in time machine. I can delete most of it. But for one folder (and all the folders in which it resides in the hierarchy) I can't deleted it. I tell it to delete backups of that folder (or folders it is in), I put in the password, and goes "ding". But nothing disappears...
    (After I wrote this, I tried unchecking "ignore ownerships" and the problem did not reappear. I can still put files in the trash without the immediate deletion problem.)

    Are you doing that via the Finder or Terminal? If so, that's not the way to delete backups. See #12 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Time Machine+ forum).
    And now I'm getting an error in time machine. "Files can't be copied onto the backup disk because it appears to be "read only"". I do get info on the disk, and my account has Read & Write privleges, but it say "You can only read" above that".
    The Finder or Terminal deletions may have corrupted your backups. Repair them, per #A5 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Time Machine+ forum).
    Message was edited by: Pondini
    I'm doing the deletion through Time Machine (I go into Time Machine, find the folder in the backup, and ask Time machine to delete all backups of that folder).
    I did find the tip of unmounting the disk, rebooting, and remounting it. That Stopped messages about the disk being read only. However, the folder still doesn't delete. I'm also a bit worried about these being symptoms of some other problem...
