Close the mail app. Then double tap on the home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar. Swipe upwards on the mail app. Reset the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. Once the phone reboots, try opening mail and see if this returns.

After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program?

After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program? Also, mail is sometimes slow to load in mornings on my iMac after it has appeared on my iPhone. I temporarily solved that by shutting down and reopening mail two or three times.

I have the same problem on my iMac. Most of what it puts in the "junk folder" is junk. I delete all of the messages in the folder and they're back the next time I check it. I have messages in that folder that have were received 2 months ago! I'm thinking of unchecking "junk folder" in preferences. Very frustrating.

I have my Hotmail open , but it freezes and won't let me open e-mail or delete junk mail. It won't do anything

My hotmail account is open, but I can't read e-mail or delete junk mail. My hotmail works fine when I use Internet Explorer. I have used Firefox for a year and never had this problem. What is the solution

Your upgrade must have failed. Unless you very very recently upgraded Lion, as in the last hour or two. Then you need to go to System Preferences and Energy Saver and stop it from automatically sleeping. Let it sit overnight. It could be spotlight re-indexing your disk and slowing you way way down.
If that doesn't work then you can re-install Lion cleanly. You need to finish backing up your data. Then make a Lion USB flash boot disk or DVD. Hold option key when you boot and select the USB or DVD drive. Run Disk Utility and delete then recreate the partition, exit Disk Utility and install Lion. Then restore your applications and data.

What happens to deleted junk mail?

I've a few rules set up to delete junk mail - such as, "if body contains V1agra - delete message", and the junk mail filter is in training mode. Somehow at times I've found that it's deleted messages that it shouldn't have - especially if there's PDFs attached.
I only just now picked up my mail and saw an incoming message with a subject header that would NOT be junk mail, however the email didn't appear in my inbox, nor the junk folder - nor the trash but has been deleted. Oh yeah - my email is set to delete messages from the server…
So question is - what happens to these emails. Are they stored somewhere temporarily that they can be retrieved from? Or is this lost for good? (I've not and WILL not shut down mail yet!)
I know it's a hard task for any piece of software - but mails junk mail filtering is a pointless joke.

Rather than deleting it in rules, move the message to the trash, or, better, the junk mailbox. That way you still have whatever time lapse you have specified Mailbox Behaviours for the account to check on incorrect interpretation.
Why bother with your own rules? You will find it hard to do better than the automatic junk filtering.

Cannot delete 1 mail message on iPad

Cannot delete 1 mail message on iPad. Looks corrupted.

You could try deleting it by logging into your account on a browser. Otherwise try turning the account off and on and see if you can then delete it : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely and try again when you re-open Mail : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1694 Why is it when I delete my junk mail on my pc they don't disappear on my iPad or iPhone. As well when I put a file in a folder it doesn't go in the folder on other devices. Why is it that u have to delete junk mail one at a time. Very annoying

Why does my junk mail delete on pc but not on iPad or iPhone why do I have to delete each one seperately on these devices and why do my files go into folders on the pc and don't appear on iPad or iPhone

Not too sure about the last part of your post but you have to manage your emails on each device if you are using a Pop3 account. It is only IMAP which provides for synchronisation across all devices. If you are not familiar with this then Google IMAP AND POP3 for more information.

Turn off "Are you Sure" Warning Deleting Junk Mail

In MS Oultook you can turn off the "are you sure" warning when you want to empty the trash or erase junk mail. Can you do it Mail on a Mac? I've been through the Preferences and tried Googling it, but I don't find anything.

OK. I understand about "erase deleted items", you might accidentally delete something, but junk mail? "Erase Junk Mail" I need an "are you sure" warning for that?

Accidentally Deleted Junk Mail

My Mail account is set up to automatically delete items in the Junk folder after one day. Sadly there were a couple of mails that WERE NOT junk and they have now been automatically deleted. How do I retreive them please?
I note that junk mails neither go into the Trash in Mail, nor into the main Trash bin in the Dock. Where do deleted emails actually go?
Thanks
Andy

Messages automatically erased from Junk according to your settings don’t go anywhere. What would be the point of moving them to the Trash? Mail is just doing what you’ve told it to do, i.e. erase the messages after the specified amount of time.
There is a small chance that the messages haven't actually been erased, though.
For each mailbox, Mail 1.x stores messages sequentially in an mbox file within the *.mbox package associated with the mailbox -- you can see the files contained in an *.mbox package by ctrl-cliking on it in the Finder and choosing Show Package Contents from the contextual menu that appears.
When a message is removed from a mailbox in Mail 1.x, the actual message may be completely erased from the mbox file (in which case it cannot be recovered), or it may remain there just marked for deletion in one of the other supporting files within the *.mbox package.
In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes. I’m not sure what the import options available in Mail 1.3 are, but you should choose Other / Standard mbox, or something like that. Follow the instructions to import the Junk.mbox package that’s within the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder.
Importing as Other / Standard mbox causes Mail to look at the mbox file only, ignoring the supporting files that keep track of which messages are read/unread, marked for deletion, etc., thus causing any previously deleted messages that might remain there to reappear.

It takes forever to delete junk mail one message at a time. What to do?

How can I delete my junk mail all at once? This one at a time method is unacceptable to me. Too many junk emails;too little time.

You should be able to tap edit to the right of Junk, then delete all at the bottom of the screen.

How do I delete junk mail without it opening up? I'm concerned about security,

I am a neophyte so hopefully my question will reach someone! I need to know how to delete unwanted junk mail without it opening up on my screen when I scroll to the delete button

No need to worry. OS X isn’t Windows. It won’t run any embedded code in the email.
However, if it has embedded html images, your loading the image will validate your email to spammers. You can disable that in Mail’s preferences.
Otherwise, Close the Preview Pane and select the messages, then delete.
