Can't delete or stop a message from sending, then force quit.

Greetings.
A boneheaded (ex)friend of mine sent out an email to me and 322 other (cc) recipinets. Previously I had educated him about using BCC but apparently not well enough.
I replied to the email and inadvertantly hit "Reply ALL"
The message looked like it was sending, but then I get the message back: The server “smtp.att.yahoo.com” did not recognize the following recipients.
That's fine, but there is no way I can close that message window with out force quiting the mail app.
In addition to that problem, every time I launch mail, it tries to send this message, which I can't find to delete it.
So here is my question, where in my system do the out going messages reside? I just want to delete this. I tried the rebuild option but that did not work.
Can anyone help?
Jonathan

I have the same issue, of course, as do the Mac masses. Any answers?

Can't delete a Blackberry Messenger message from unknown

I received a an invitation to BBM from a stranger over a week ago and I have not been able to delete it, ignore it or decline it. It just stubbornly stays in my inbox.
Only thing I have not tried is to accept the invitation as I do want to. What can I do to get rid of the message?
Thanking you kindly!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So if you choose Decline or Ignore, nothing happens and the invitation is still there like you've never opened it?
Have tried accepting, just to immediately delete him again?
Another thing you can try is to do a battery pull, that actually solves most problems. Just take out the battery with your device turned on, wait about a minute and put it back in.
Please let me know if it works, and if it doesn't then hopefully one of the really smart guys that might know what to do reads this thread...
Cheers

Change mail message from sender before forwaring message

How can I change/adapt the orignal message from sender before replying or forwarding

In what way, like edit the original message?
You cannot, from within the native software.
You'll need a third party application such as ForwardWithEdit to do so, and that can be found in the Fixmo Tools application... for one place.

What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

How do I delete a single text message from iPhone 6,I don't have a trash can.

How do I delete a single text message from conversation on I phone 6 ? I don't have a trash can & touching "edit" will only delete the all messages from that person.

Thanks for your reply, deggie, but as I stated in the original question I do not have a trash can. However, I went to the Verizon store and after many attempts to locate a trash can the sales rep turned off the phone with both buttons held down. When the apple came back the trash can came back. He had never seen that problem before so we both learned something !

Mail has stopped retrieving messages from Yahoo

Mail has stopped retrieving messages from Yahoo email account. I deleted the account, cleared Safari history and recreated the account. Successfully retrieved all folders and contents of folders but no messages. Watching the Activity, it appeared to be retrieving the messages but none appear. Looking at the log, I can see FETCH error server. Not sure where to go from here to resolve the issue. Thanks for your help.

Based on what I've read in the forum, Yahoo mail has been having some problems.

Mail 2.1 recently stopped downloading messages from POP server

Hi there,
I am struggling with this one.
My mail has previously been workoing no problems, through a POP server (doctors.net.uk)
Since 26/06/06 it has stopped downloading messages from the server.
I can send mail from Mail no problem and it appears on the server.
The system preferences/network is fine.
The connection Dr tells me that it can access the account no problem.
The SOCKS proxy is not enabled.
I even altered the POP account preferences to delete all messages from the server older than 1 month (previously not enabled) whic it duly did without problem.
When I click get mail, it spins, there is no error message, but no new messages appear.
I have followed this with my POP account service who insist all is fine at their end.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Try this in case the problem is that Mail is actually downloading the messages but they are being incorrectly processed by the rules:
1. Quit Mail.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.0, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
4. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
5. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
6. Go online again if you went offline in step 4.
If the problem persists after doing this, then you know the rules have no bearing on it, and you may move the files on the Desktop back to the ~/Library/Mail/ folder, overwriting any files Mail may have created anew there (quit Mail first).
Note however that, if you want to test this with messages already on the server, you need to also remove the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 file again.

Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

>> Open Inbox >> Edit >> Mark All >> Mark As Read
>> Open Inbox >> Edit >> Check/select the top message; it will highlight the move button.
>> Press and hold the move button and uncheck the message that you had checked earlier.
>> Lift all your fingers off from the ipad screen and leave it alone. Wait until all your messages pile up on the right hand portion of the screen (in ipad); iphone will give you the actual number of emails it has selected for the action. Now they are just waiting for your command to be moved ALL at once.
>> Choose trash to delete all of them or any other folder where u want to move them, like one piece. Remember this will replicate your action on the server so you will ACTUALLY move them or delete them on the server and not just the ipad.
Once you have moved all messages to the trash you can either leave them there for the scheduled cleaning or empty it right away by doing this: go to trash folder and touch Edit. The Delete All button shows up at the bottom of the screen. Hit it! You’re done!
