Can't Stop Receiving Alias Mail

After setting up the iCloud mail service I chose to take advantage of the alias options.
At one point in the past I had my main account + all three aliases. 
Having finished with the alias in question, I naturally deleted it (but did not un-check "send & receive mail from this alias", but it still shows on my mac, iphone etc and I can still send and am still receiving from it.
The only thought I've had is to re-create it on icloud and then uncheck the "send & recieve" box - however each time I try to set it up again, I get told that I've had the maximum and will be able to add a new one in seven days - I can't.
Any thoughts or shared problems?

Hi,
You can create up to 3 aliases with iCloud.  Deleting them is not immediate and take time for Apple.  Have you waiting 7 days since your deleted your alias?
The check box you are refering to (Send & receive mail from this alias) is only used for active aliases and will have no impact once your alias will be deleted by Apple.  Also, you will not be able to create the same alias again once it have been used even after deletion.
From iCloud.com go in Mail then Preferences anD Accounts.  Once your alias will be deleted by Apple, you should no longer see it there and then, been able to create a new one.

  • I have recently bought a new domain which is hosted so that I can send and receive e-mails

    I have recently bought a new domain which is hosted so that I can send and receive e-mails & run a webpage. It has POP3 and SMTP settings that I can use to send and receive my e-mails via Outlook on my PC. However, it doesn't work on my iPad. I have changed port settings and appear to be able to send but each time I start the Mail application my iPad reports "username or password incorrect" even though these correctly work on my PC. MS Outlook Exchange 2010 Live Mail works OK with the same settings on my iPad but I would like to get all my mail via the iPad inbuilt application.
    Can anyone help?

    POP3 accounts are really designed only to be used from one computer and some email providers actually 'lock' the account while in use to stop it being used by another computer/device at the same time.
    Try closing Outlook, wait some minutes then try accessing it from the iPad. You may find it works once the POP3 connection has been released.
    Ideally, you should be using IMAP because POP3 is old and not suitable for modern, multi-device usage.

  • TS3899 My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped receiving incoming mail.

    My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped receiving incoming mail.  I am still able to send from my iPhone but not receive.My email is still coming through on the desktop, sending anbd receiving.

    Thanks for the reply. The SMTP is the Outgoing , which is working.  I cannot find the incoming settings though. Are there any? The settings were never changed by me, I think there has been a network change somewhere. AT&T or Apple. I have rebooted several times, and even did a restore.  Same problem. The "checking email" and "last Updated xx/xx/xxxx" message at bottom of screen just constantly flashes on and off when I check email.
    I can send email from my iPhone ok.

  • I can no longer receive e-mail messages through my @mac/@me account. I can still send e-mail messages, though. I believe there may have been recent attempts to hack into my account. I have changed my password, but wonder how to start receiving mail again?

    I can no longer receive e-mail messages through my @mac/@me account, though I still seem to be able to send messages. I believe there may have been recent attempts to hack into my Mail account (my LinkedIn and Facebook accounts were both hacked three days ago and a scam/phishing message sent to my contacts, and I know there was at least an attempt made to hack into one of my e-mail accounts). I have already changed my Apple password, but how do I start receiving mail again?
    (And I should also say that I'm a little surprised there was no alert from Apple of suspicious activity on my account, if such was the case. Instead, when I logged into my account via Mobile Me three days ago I noticed that all messages in my inbox were gone as well as all of my contacts. I assume this was related to the current problem.)
    Thanks for all responses.

    The problem has been solved with the help of a MobileMe online counsellor. My MobileMe account had in fact been hacked into and the fraudster had been redirecting my e-mail messages to a phony account that he controlled. We took the forward off and reset all my passwords and security questions, which solved the immediate problem.
    Thx.

  • How can I stop my e-mails to come in automaticaly, i want to do it on my own.

    I beleive that my usage it gets depleted by the automatic download of junk e-mail, how can i stop it and only receive e-mails manually.
    thanks

    Change your mail settings for each email account you are using on the iPhone. If you have them set to Push then turn Push off. If you have it set to Fetch then make sure you have the fetch frequency changed to manually so that it will only check for emails when you enter the mail app. Otherwise, it will check based on the time interval you have it set to.

  • IPhone 5 Stopped Receiving Yahoo Mail

    I noticed this past weekend (03/28-3/29) my Yahoo email account on my iPhone 5 had not received any new emails, although I was still continuing to receive them on my iPad.  I have attempted the following:
    Updated operating system to iOS 8.2
    Deleted Yahoo Account and changed account password (on PC)
    Reinstalled Yahoo Account
    I have also performed Steps 2 and 3 above and rebooted the phone between the steps.  Currently my inbox is empty and will not receive test emails I've sent from other accounts, I am however able to compose and send emails.  When I access the inbox, it shows "No Mail" and when I swipe down, the task bar at the bottom briefly shows "connecting" and then "Updated Sunday".
    Any help/ thoughts on the matter woudl be greatly appreciated.

    iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 stopped receiving mail yesterday. Have yahoo email account. Can still send emails. Have turned device off/on. Have done the dual off/on thing using top button and menu button.   Issue seems to be only with main inbox, as sub folders are receiving mail. Other Apple device is not having issues like this, just on iPhone.
    Your issue is with the Yahoo email account which is notoriously bad.
    you can try deleting and reinstalling the email account.
    If that doesn't fix it try the yahoo email app.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite I can no longer receive e-mail on my Mac or Macbook air but can on my I-pad. Is there a fix in the works?

    My I-mac and Macbook air will not receive e-mail since installing Yosemite  but I can still get e-mail on my I-pad. I have verified with my ISP that everything is working correctly on their end. Message by Inbox says Mail cannot send password securely to the server. Any fixes?

    Hi olejim51,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're not able to connect to your ISPs mail server on your iMac or MacBook Air.
    There could be several causes of the error message you're seeing. I would start with the steps in the "Mail Connection Doctor shows one or more red dots in the account Status column" section of this article to troubleshoot the message:
    OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages
    This article contains a variety of steps that can help resolve an issue like the one you're seeing.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • How to stop receiving e-mails from the Adobe Forums?

    After the recent upgrade to the Adobe Forums you may notice that you are receiving additional e-mail messages from the Adobe Forums.
    To turn off e-mail notifications please complete the following steps:
    Go to https://forums.adobe.com/welcome
    Click on your Avatar and choose the Preference option
    Alternately you can click on https://forums.adobe.com/user-preferences!input.jspa to access your Preferences.
    Under the General Preferences you can adjust your e-mail preferences.  You can choose which type of notifications you wish to receive e-mail notifications for.  I would recommend disabling the e-mail regarding Moderation Notifications
    Once your selection has been made then click the Save button to apply the settings change.

    What does “I cannot export or copy and paste or drag the mail over” mean?
    Mail stores most preferences and all account settings in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (except the passwords, which are stored in the keychain). Everything else, including all your messages and mailboxes, is stored within the ~/Library/Mail/ folder.
    Similarly, Address Book stores the settings in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist and the data in ~/Library/Application Support/AddresBook/.
    Other applications store preferences and data in other places. You may want to ask in the appropriate forums for more information on those.
    If both computers are running the same major version of Mac OS X, copying these files & folders from one computer to the other is all you need to do in order to have an exact copy of all your data on both computers.
    In order to avoid potential permission issues, copy the files operating on the destination computer and while logged in as the user that’s going to use them. Also, be sure the affected applications aren’t running on either computer while doing that.
    Alternatively, you may use Migration Assistant, as Michael suggested:
    Transferring data with Setup Assistant / Migration Assistant FAQ
    And you may want to read the following articles as well:

    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • Can I stop the same Mail returning after deleting ?

    I acn't seem to stop the same mail returning time after time. There are about 10 items of various previous dates that cme back from 'MAIL DELIVERY SYSTEM' - Delivery Status Notification (failure)...
    I have tried, Bouncing, deleting and marking it JUNK but they reappear in my INBOX almost immediately.
    I have also noticed that recently I am having to Force Quit MAIL very much more often.
    Any one have any ideas, please ?

    Hi loons,
    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
