Can't remove messages from server

Mail has randomly been failing to remove downloaded messages from the two independent servers that host our e-mail accounts. We've verified that all accounts have "remove copy.........: Right Away" selected in Advanced Preferences. Have gone so far as to deselect, close mail, and then open and reselect. Have also delected the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 file for each mailbox but the problem comes back after a few download cycles.
We've also found one account where "Get Info" showed no messages on the server but logging in to that account using webmail showed 79 messages present.
Must add that it deletes some messages and leaves others with no discernable pattern.
We've repaired permissions, etc. but the problem persists.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Just when I thought the problem was solved - went all day yesterday without a hitch - this morning it left over 20 messages on the server immediately after the first "download" of the morning. Last night Mail was closed and the machine was in sleep mode. Opened mail and after it had completed the download went to the server and checked.
So far there have been no reoccurrences. Will set up another machine to remove after moving from the Inbox and see what happens.

How can I show message from server?

Has anyone idea, how can I show message from server? I want to show message after some files are uploaded via FTP.

Hi,
You can use OPEN DATASET for this purpose.
Try this code:

How can i remove messages from faces context

hi
how can i remove messages from faces context
with regards
shannu sarma

I'm also looking to find a way to remove message/s from FacesContext, and so far I've not been able to do this.
The issues described below (if you have the patience to understand it) may uncover some JSF issues when combining different functionalities in JSF to come up with a solution.
I have a requirement to display (let's just say error) messages in a message board. I do this in 2 steps: field-level validations are done first, and if all corrected (by the user), I do multi-field-level as well as business logic validation after model update (the way JSF seems to be designed to handle different types of validations). Let's say I have a combination of 3 combo-boxes that are dependent on one another. Selection from (1) requires dynamically filtering and setting a list for two and that in turn requires dynamically filtering and setting a list for 3, so the first two have valueChangeListener (try doing this in JSF!!!, I had to hack my way through to set this up with JSF, but that is not the issue). I have business rules associated with items within combo (1) and other entry fields entered by users (i.e. for simplicity let's just say, if material 'chain' is selected from combo 1, I should set combo (2) and (3), and validate that user entered at least four in # used entry field). Let's say I have a table with many rows of above combination of combo-boxes specified. Again for simplicity, assume we only have business rule violations (not field-level that would not go through model update):
* User selects many combination of entried before submit (with no field-level error)
* Business rules are checked and messages added to FacesContext and displayed in a message board
* Next, all these messages disappear from the view when selecting any item from any combo-box (with valueChangeListeners attached to them) - 2 reasons: 1. a new FacesContext is created per valueChangeEvent 2. Business model update does not happen (so we don't generate these messages again and add them to FacesContext, it is not efficient to do so anyways)
* we would like to display all those business logic validation messages so the user could correct them all (and not lose them by any combo-box selection)
* As a workaround, I add these messages to session (which is another issue, since FacesMessages are not serializable) at the end of business logic validation, and retrieve and display them by (a.) forcing combo-boxes go through (field-level) validation, (b.) adding a new hidden field at the end of all fields in JSP page with a custom-validator that all it does is to get messages saved to session (from the last business logic validation) and add them to the FacesContext - this ensures that messages are not lost due to combo-box selections
* The problem is that when user submits (to validate the business rules again), since the old Business validations messages are added to FacesContext at the end of field-level validation, I need to clear them, before adding the newly generated messages
* But....I can't remove messages from FacesContext
So here's a reason for this 'needed' functionality, based on whatever is available (as of JSF 1.1.01). Is there a better way to this, I'll be delighted to hear it (as I have tried different solutions myself with above combination of issuses), and have wasted some time trying to work-around the issues I've faced using JSF (in every one of those ways I've tried) ....part of which is described here...
Thanks...

DEAD IN THE WATER--Can't remove email from server-can't receive new emails

I stopped receiving emails this morning upon startup, steps taken:
restarted mail
rebooted
backed up all inboxes
searched how to see message on server, found them and and can see one that says:
From: unknown sender Subject: No subject Date Recd: Today Time is always the current time.
I read a very old post from David Gimeno Gost who said:
"You may tell Mail to remove from the server all the messages that have already been downloaded by means of Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove now. Alternatively, you may use the Account Info window to remove specific messages from the server. And if the account allows web access, you may also remove messages from the server that way.
Try removing from the server messages that have already been downloaded and/or the first message not downloaded yet (i.e. the message that Mail appears to be choking on)."
I can't remove it from the server either by itself or grouped with other messages. Interestingly enough, I can receive emails on my iPhone and I changed my email address in my Apple info and received the verification email, but still nothing else that's sitting on the server.
Went into my email account through Webmail to delete it and can see all emails except that one
opened Mail on my mac mini, I couldn't receive email there for my email inbox, however I was able to receive email in my employees inbox on the same server but different email address.
Is this a Charter issue or a Mail issue. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks Renee

I finally figured it out. The server had to be refreshed by calling my hosting service. 9 hours of diagnosis and a 2 minute fix.
Hope that will help someone else:)

Mail 6.2 IMAP account removes messages from server

I've been running Mail fine for years but when I upgraded the Macbook Pro from Snow Leopard to 10.8.2 Mail began to remove messages from my mail server even though it is an IMAP account.
It is set to keep copies for offline use.
The exact same setup works fine on Snow Leopard in the iMac.
There are no plugins in Mail on the MBP/ML setup.
Have I missed some obvious setting?

Update - Attempted the following to resolve with no success:
Shutdown and restart Mail
Restart MacBook
Disable and enable Exchange account
Monitored the Activity window and everything looked OK.
Review with Connection Doctor. An interesting observation of the Detail screen of Connection Doctor is that I did not see any activity for my Exchange domain. Activity was listed for all other email accounts except the Exchange account. Hmmm......
Finally had to remove the Exchange account and re-create it. Only then did the recent and other email appear.
Arrrrgggghhhh......

Can't remove message from email inbox of i phone 5.

I am using my company email box (IMAP account) at iphone 5 & when I deleted unwanted email from my inbox, its can’t be moved to Trash mailbox. Display message “Unable to Move Messages-----The messages could not be moved to the mailbox Trash.”
Sometime its looks removed from inbox but when I checked “Trash” there are no removed messages. Again when I checked for new messages, the deleted old messages again returned to inbox. Same thing is happened at Spam box.
Also when I sent messages, its not stored at Sent box.

What did your IT department have to say about it?

Mail isn't removing messages from server

I just got an iPad Mini and set it up to check my POP e-mail accounts. I set it up exactly the way I had my iPhone, so that when I delete a message from the iPad it removes that message from the server. That way any mail I don't want to deal with twice won't be there when I get home.
Unfortunately it isn't working. I check mail on the iPad throughout the day, deleting the stuff I don't need. When I get home, every single message downloads.
is this feature broken in the latest iOS update, or is there something I'm doing wrong? I've been searching online and so far I cannot find anyone else who has documented this issue.

Okay, I'm with you part of the way. When I open Settings, Mail, Contacts, etc... then click on the account in question, what I see is:
Account (on/off)
Name
Email
Description
Hostname
Username
Password
SMTP
Advanced
There is only one on/off switch on, that for Account. And no sections for calendar, notes, etc... Perhaps we have different versions of iOS?

Cryptography in networking,client can't get message from server but

Hello We are developing a simple Networking project where we are chaining CipherStreams to ObjectStream. When client gets connected to the server the server will send initial message to client and flush (but here is the problem) but the client does not get the message and is waiting for the message input.readObject() it just stuck there, what is the reason??
---Server Code----
server = new ServerSocket( 15000, 100 );
while ( true ) {
connection = server.accept();
connection.setTcpNoDelay(true);
// Get input and output streams.
desEn.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, desKey);
//get the raw OutputStream
outraw = connection.getOutputStream();
//chain the OutputStream to the coutDES
CipherOutputStream
CipherOutputStream coutDES = new CipherOutputStream(outraw, desEn);
//chain the coutDES CipherOutputStream to
ObjectOutputStream of output
output = new ObjectOutputStream(coutDES);
String message = "SERVER>>>DES CONNECTION SUCCESSFUL!";
output.writeObject( message );
output.flush();
-End of Server Code--
-- Client code start-
Cipher desEn = Cipher.getInstance("DES"); //encrypting
Cipher Cipher desDe = Cipher.getInstance"DES");
client = new Socket(servername, 15000);
client.setTcpNoDelay(true);
desDe.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE,desKey);
cinDES = new CipherInputStream(inraw, desDe);
input = new ObjectInputStream(cinDES);
// We got stuck here the program don't go beyond this line
Object obj = input.readObject();

Thank you for your suggestion. But I tried to chain the BufferedStream between ObjectStream and CipherStream. The problem still exit.
In the c/s sides, there are two functions to use the socket. One is the protocol part which does the handshaking before everything is prepared. Then a JTextField object is enabled and it will also use the socket and the chained stream to commnicate with the other part.
The concrete problem is strange, it seems there is some hidden buffer which holds the message. When a message is send and flush, it doesn't go to the net, instead it is hold somewhere until an other message is send and flush. So there are some delay. So in my code I have to use sendDate("\n") to push the useful message out into to net. And on the other side, eatBoundary() to get rid of the "\n" and then getMsg() to recieve the useful message.
However, for some time the communiction stuck, both sides are waiting. But when you send another message, the previous and the new message appear on the other side. In the way, it is hard to implement the handshaking which requires reliable syncronization. You have met the same problem before? If you think it is not clear enough could you send me your email addr and I can send you the source code.
my addr; [email protected]
Thanks again!

Selectively remove messages from POP server

The one feature that is preventing me from using Mac Mail is the absence of a way (that I can find anyways) of selectively removing mail from the server.
In Entourage you can click on each or any number of messages and choose to remove those messages from serve. This is invaluable to me as I do not want to have to see all the junk mail or mail I have delt with when I get home. However may messages I do want to keep. Others I can delete from Entourage knowing I can deal with them later at home as they will stay on the server.
I know you can have mail removed once it is moved out of the in box however that means that all the mail that I want to keep on the server, I can to keep in the inbox. I do not want to have a huge number of email stay in my inbox just so I do not have to remove from server.
I would like to use Mac Mail to be able to use the spotlight features.
Anyone know of a way that I may have missed to do what I can do in Entourage?
Thanks

Guys,
I have the same reservations about using Mail - I want to selectively delete mail from the server. I am using 10.3.9 and Mail 1.3.11 v622. Can I use Raymac's workaround? I did not see a Get Info when I tried to find one... What is the most current version of Mail that will work with 10.3.9?
Thanx,
Don

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server not from my iPad inbox only?

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server also not from my iPad inbox only?
Because when i delete emails from my iPad inbox, it will be deleted on my iPad only but when i check my email inbox server from the browser its not deleted!
So how can i set up this link so when i delete any email from my iPad it will be deleted from my email inbox server also?

Hi Pierrot10,
Insert your backup disc (or plug your external hd), then open Mail.
In the File menu, click *Import Mailboxes* and follow the steps for a *Mail for Mac OS X* transfer.
Navigate to your CD/DVD's or external HD's backup and hit "OK".
This should create a new "Imported" folder in Mail with all your old messages in it, that you can then rearrange as you wish, creating new mailboxes etc.

Delete message from server after download.

Hi, I'm normally use to Gmail and so haven't used an email client in years.
I have a .mac account and Mail is setup to check it.
At the moment, when mail downloads new mail from the server, it still leaves a copy of the email(s) on the server.
Instead what I would like it to do is, download from the server and then delete the copy on the server.
... is this possible?... and how do I do it?
I'd appreciate any help at all.
Nick.
iMac 24inch Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2.33Ghz Intel Core Duo / 3GB DDR2 SDRAM / 250GB HD / NVIDIA GeForce 7600GT 256MB

Hello Nick.
If this is for your .Mac account, a .Mac type account is really an IMAP type account and behaves in the same way.
You can create/access a .Mac account with the Mail.app as a .Mac, IMAP or POP type account and as an IMAP or POP type account with other email clients.
If you plan on accessing your .Mac account with another email client or via webmail access on another computer, you may want to reconsider.
If not, to change the account type of an existing account with the Mail.app requires deleting and recreating the account.
If you want to save any sent messages with the account before doing so, create an "On My Mac" location mailbox and transfer all existing sent messages from the account's Sent mailbox to the user created "On My Mac" location mailbox. Deleting an account has no affect on messages that remain on the server.
Delete and re-create your .Mac account selecting POP as the account type when re-creating the account.
After doing so, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Advanced tab for the account preferences will be the available settings for removing messages from the server when downloaded.

Apple mail not uploading messages from server

i've got a weird problem - about a week ago, my apple mail program stopped uploading messages to one of my emails accounts. i've been getting messages to that account, and when i right click on the account, apple mail shows me that i have like 100 + unread messages on my pop server, but for some reason, it isn't uploading the messages so that i can access them.
i've spent nearly 2 hours troubleshooting. i even deleted the whole account and made it again, and it did the same thing. this makes me think there is something with my email host or something.
any ideas?

When you say “uploading” you actually mean “downloading”, right?
Sometimes messages left on the server clog up the account there, or Mail chokes on a message it cannot download and that prevents it from downloading the rest as well. Solving this problem will probably require deleting one or more messages from the server. What are your Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings for this account?
You may tell Mail to remove from the server all the messages that have already been downloaded doing Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove now. Alternatively, you may use the Account Info window to remove specific messages from the server. And if the account allows web access, you may also remove messages from the server that way.
Try first removing from the server messages that have already been downloaded. If that doesn’t work, you’ll probably have to delete the first message not downloaded yet. You may want to try to download those messages with another mail client such as Thunderbird first, to avoid losing them -- and use Eudora Mailbox Cleaner to import them back into Mail afterwards if you wish.

Removing email from server issue

I have a new iMac and I am having problems with email (settings).
I have the iMac and macbook both running yosemite and both have/share the main email account. the macbook email has the setting to remove email from server, but the iMac doesn't. When I use the remove now on the macbook to clear it off the server, it deletes them from my iMac (just inbox not junk)? I though once they are on the iMac they would be here, and the remove would just remove them from the host mail server?
I'd like to be able to control the removal from the iMac (not macbook). Anybody else had this issue, and how can I get the settings to appear on my iMac mail pref window to control it there?

See my reply to the message:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2557520?start=15&tstart=0
The problem is that the POP3 client does not issue a DELE command to remove the email from the server.
