Configuring mail on iphone

hi i was checking my email on my iphone i discovered that both the delete botton and reply are missing how do i configure the mail so i can delete or reply to mail ?

If you are using a pop account on the iphone, make sure that your computer is not accessing the email at the same time.
When 2 devices try to access the pop account at the same time, you can get this message.
Also, when the iphone downloads messages from a pop account, it only gets a list of the messages and not the whole message.
Then when you tap on the message to view it, the iphone downloads and caches the rest of the message.
If the iphone has a list of messages, then the messages gets downloaded on the computer and deleted from the account, there is not a message for the iphone to download.
The reason for this, is that when a computer downloads from a pop account, the default is for the computer to delete the message from the email server. So the now the message only exists on the computer.
Also, this message can come up if you are using the edge network and it is taking to long to download the message. If this is happening, the email server might time out.
Hope this helps.

Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

Hacking of e-mail account (yahoo and gmail) while both are configured to my iPhone?

Yesterday the 8th of October, 2012 at about 2.45 pm IST (Indian Standard Time) both my e-mail accounts which are configured to the iPhone were hacked. The hacker not only sent some ridiculous mail from the account asking my contacts to send money through Western Union Money Transfer, but deleted my last 3 months sent mails, inbox and the entire contacts.
They also added a new mail to my alternative mails. Upon approaching the cyber crime department it was given to understand that these criminals had used a IP address from Nigeria, Africa.

That depends on what you mean. If you mean two iTunes Store accounts, no. Only one Apple ID can be logged into the iTunes Store at a time and if automatic download, iTunes Match or re-downloading of content is used the ID can not be changed for 90 days.

But i have a question here in that case what happens to all the applications that have been purchased on my Id ? Wont i be needing them to be purchased/downloaded again in the new id?
If you previously had been using the same Apple ID for iTunes Store purchases for both of you there is no reason to change what you've been doing. If this is your wife's first iPhone, and you want to share the iTunes Store account just don't use the new Apple ID you created. As long as there are no purchases on it there's nothing to worry about.

Push mail to iPhone/iPad (iOS 5b3) Confirmed Working

After much fiddle ******* around and 15 clean installations and about 64 hours later, I can confirm that push mail DOES indeed work to the iPhone/iPad from Mac OS X Lion Server.
I still have configuration errors to resolve, but this is a down and dirty brief:
Clean install of Lion (Forget the fact Apple says it is an easy upgrade from SLS. You will shoot yourself...)
Install Server essentials and then download Server Admin Tools. (Or Server.app - depends on your preference)
Open Server.app - ensure that your hostname is correct.
Open ServerAdmin.
Set up DNS. (Note: Do yourself a favor and look at the Server.app help file and follow Apple's recommendation for related DNS entries, including all the SRV recommendations)
Ensure DNS is working properly.
Server.app Hardware, settings - turn it all on. Edit SSL first and make sure you have your self generated SSL cert selected.
Tick the enable push notifications option and hit edit.
Apply for / Download your push cert using the AppleID of the system (or yours if your don't have one for your server)
Restart
ServerAdmin - setup OD as master.
Open WGM - set up your user accounts and enable the basic services.
Configure Mail thru ServerAdmin (not Server.app)
Edit main.cf in postfix and remove the greylisting entry
I then went down the list starting with Address Book and enabled/configured the services and tested them out using client apps on another Mac. (Skip Profile Manager)
In the Web area, be prepared to beat your head against a wall.
Make sure you follow the various recommendations in other discussions - I had a few:
NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost *:443
Must be in your httpd.conf file (Or the 00000.any.conf file suggestion if you prefer. The httpd.conf is centralized and much easier.)
In your web site setup area, Any, is the easiest setting versus a specific IP address (if you are only hosting one web server or have one IP this is the only way anyway)
Edit your indv site .conf files in /private/etc/apache2/sites
I use just the host name in DNS, such as example.com
in DNS make sure you have a correct Alias such as www.example.com
Edit your indvidual site file and under ServerName example.com make an entry on a new line: ServerAlias www.example.com
I moved my custom sites to /Library/WebServer/Documents by the way. (Strictly your preference here, but make sure your httpd.conf file states where your default directory is)
You can't change the server's default site in /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default
After all the services are configured/enabled configure/enable profile manager.
Sign the configuration profiles with your SSL cert
You can then open the Profile Manager and enable a few Profiles for you or whomever.
Just as in a few other posts, the https://server.example.com/mydevices is a blank page on iOS devices.
This is the workaround on an iPad:
On your device go to https//server.example.com
The server's main page will open (not your custom sites with any luck. If the custom sites open, start troubleshooting)
On the Server's page, click on the Profile Manager hyperlink on the bottom right of the page.
Then sign in when prompted
Then on the upper right of the page you should see Your Name with a menu arrow next to it.
Click your name/arrow
Down will pop a contextual menu.
Click Download Trust Profile
Install on your iOS device
Then navigate to your Name in the user pane (on left)
If you had previously set up your profile (on a desktop because that iPhone screen will make your eyes bleed) click Download under the profile Section.
Install on your device.
The usual trust this, enable this and that boxes will pop up. Just make sure you allow your server's SSL cert to be trusted.
After all this -
BOOM
Push mail works like a fkn champ!
I must say it's really **** fast. I have an Exchange account on my iPad as well and the mail from my Lion Server beats the Exchange mail account every time.
One caveat - I do have iOS 5b4 on my devices as a registered Apple Developer. And, the Team Profile is installed from apple. If these factors have any play in this - I don't know. Try it and report back. I am curious to see if this works on 4.3
It is 3:12 am and I tried to cover most of the steps in setting up push mail. I may have missed some due to my fatigue, but if I am more than willing to help anyone get their server setup. Just be kind and a) don't spam me and b) don't email me at o'dark thirty and expect a response. I am eastern standard time in Florida (USA).
iCal and Contacts work with push and are pretty **** fast as well.
To get around the blank mydevices page problem on an iPhone, you have to generate an Enrollment configuration profile and email it to your device (which is stupid because that means you have to have email on your device - which is why you are setting up mydevices to begin with)
First, however, you must download the Trust Profile and email it to the iphone. Install.
Then the enrollment profile
Install.
You should be in business after this. I still have a few bugs to work out, but at least I can confirm that the pushmail works. And well at that.
I will report more in the morning -
Good Luck
Scott

Followed your instructions on my iPhone running 4.3.5 and my iPad which is running iOS 5 beta 4... IT WORKS!
Thanks a lot!

Configure Mail to have only the 50 last messages.

Is it possible to configure Mail to have only the 50 last messages, as it is on iPhone?
Thanks.

Ok, thanks for the tip.
But It is not exactly what I want to do. Maybe it is not possible.
In th iPhone mail app, you can configure your imap acount to be synchronised with your mail sever loading only the 50th last messages, in order to save spaces in your iPhone. I am looking for this opotion on my macbook, for the same reason.

Apple Mail, iPad & iPhone mail with GMail imap

Hi,
I'm using a MacBook Pro 13", a iPad 4 (actual retina) and an iPhone 4.
I have issues using apple mail with my Gmail imap account :
Only the inbox seem to be fully compatible with every device I use, but the outbox, for example, seem not to be the same box on all device.
when I send a mail from my MacBook, the sended mail doesn't appear in the Mail's classical outbox but in a sub-box of Gmail box on the bottom, and I can't find any trace of the mail on iPhone/iPad.
Is there anything I can do to make that I have the same Inbox, Outbox, Draft, Spam and Trash boxes in all my device and server.
I tryied with iCloud mail account and this works perfectly !!
If it's not possible, is it possible to set my icloud mail account to be with my own domain name as it is on my Gmail acount ?
thanks

On iOS, there is no local configuration for the Sent Mail. for Gmail, it automatically goes to the Sent Mail folder. But Sent Mail only shows up when you tap Gmail under the Account setings, not in Inboxes. For OSX, however, you may be able to configure a designated folder (that can be either on the local machine or on the account server). To be honest, I can't recall where that configuration is, and do not have the MBP in front of me. This article may help (or provide links to instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5361

Configured Mail in 10.4.11 to iCloud specifications and get error messages

Configured Mail in 10.4.11 to iCloud specifications and get error messages and still cannot send and receive. Get error messages, "does not recognize password" etc. Have working on Snow Leopard, iPhone iPad but not 10.4.11 PPC Mail. Any help? I used Apple support set up. I originally had a .mac account and have tried both [email protected] and xxx.me.com as username. I Upgraded my password to stronger suggested strength. (one cap and one letter minimum 8) I verified Keychain. I have even deleted everything including Keychain and account and started over numerous times, still no joy. Ports are incoming 993 and outgoing 587. Will not be upgrading this machine due to production software issues but was told I could stll use the .mac email
Any help here?
-Thanks

Give the date there is another probable solution. Were you originally a MobileMe subscriber? If you weren't, then please ignore the rest of this post.
MobileMe subscribers who migrated to iCloud received complimentary extra storage up until September 30 2013. This has now expired. If you have less than 5GB data in iCloud then your storage simply reverts to 5GB.
However if you have more than 5GB data, Backup, Documents and Mail will stop working until you either delete sufficient data to bring you within 5GB or purchase additional storage. Possibly this is what has happened to your - you should have been sent an email about this.
For instructions on purchasing additional storage please see
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4874
For help in reducing your iCloud data please see
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4847
Your problem is that you cannot access iCloud to do this because you have no iCloud preference pane. Your only options are to use a compliant Mac (Lion or Mountain Lion) or an iOS5/6 device to purchase extra storage; or to go to http://icloud.com and delete as much as you can there (you may not be able to access this page on Tiger, but you would be able to do so from any more recent computer).

Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"

Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"
I have five e-mail accounts linked to my Mail app (an Exchange account, an IMAP account, and three Outlook POP accounts. Everytime I close the app (close the app meaning double tap the Home button and close it) and reopen it, the Mail app opens the first Inbox on the list. Unfortunately, it is an inbox I rarely use, the Exchange account. I constantly have to press back to go to my "All Mailboxes" screen and then select the correct account Inbox from there. Of course, if I don't fully close the app, but rather tap the home button once and reopen it, the app opens where it left off.
Is there an easier way to make the app open to "All Mailboxes" screen by default vs. the first account listed alphabetically? Or, perhaps the app opening the Exchange account because it thinks it has a priority over the IMAP and POP accounts?
I searched this on Google but all I could find were forums from 2010 that were never answered.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you TomJones75. When I posted this initially, I was running iOS 6.1.3 and not iOS 7. I don't think editing the order of the inboxes was an option back on iOS 6.1.3. With your tip, I was able to re-order my inboxes but it still defaults to the Exchange account when opened.
I.e. first account listed under mailboxes is now an Outlook account and the 2nd is an Exhannge account. Mail still defaults to the Exhange account even though the Outlook is my default email address for the iPhone.
Good tip though! Thanks!

How to verify my account using my yahoo email? and how to open my apple id in what mail in iphone 4?

how to verify my account using my yahoo email? and how to open my apple id in what mail in iphone 4?

Hi stanlaw,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below should help you with this.
Associating and verifying email addresses with your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68
How to verify the primary email address for your Apple ID
When you first create an Apple ID (using your email address) a verification email will be sent to that address. If you sign in to your Apple ID from the link in that email, the email address will be verified as the primary email address for your Apple ID. You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
2. Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
3. Verify your changes by following the link in the email you will receive from Apple and signing back in to your account.
I hope this information helps ....
Happy Holidays!

After 1st Gen iPod touch reset, cannot configure mail for Mobile Me or iCloud account

I recently reset my iPod touch 1st Gen, v. 3.1.3 (7E18) and have not been able to configure Mail to check the Mobile Me or iCloud mail server. I get an error msg that the user name or password must be incorrect, but they're not. I assume this is due to the old IOS not being up to date with iCloud technologies, but I was able to get mail on this device before resetting. I don't use it much for email, but do carry it on trips as a backup access device to get to mail and calendars. I dont really want to use Safari to check mail when there is a mail app for doing so.
Any suggestions?

HT1430 Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

Is this on wifi or cellular data?
Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
Have you gone into the email settings and making sure the password are still there?

Can't send document attachments from Mail to iPhone

...well I can but not very well.... When using Gmail IMAP to sync everything, document attachments sent from Mac Mail to iPhone mail arrive as a bit of mess.. i.e. not as attachments but as text within the email itself, plus lots of garbled numbers and letters. Strange because if I send the same message from the iPhone back to itself or from webmail-Gmail it works fine. Its also just fine with photos and Pdf's. Help!

No, sorry. false alarm.
I just received a message, sent by Apple Mail 2.1.2 from OS 10.4.11, through POP, to an email-forwarding address, to my imap-gmail, and received from there (by IMAP) with Mail 2.1.2, too.
Details of what got garbled below, just to say that sending the email not to the forwarding address but directly to [email protected] did not help either.
the email was constructed like so:
- some text, readable.
- an attached PDF, space characters in name. this entire pdf was just printed in the email, meaning the postscript code and what have you.
- some more text, that was still readable
- an attached image that was probably pasted into the email, the name was "pastedGraphic.png". The image survived.
- text, readable.
- another PDF, raw contents printed into email body.
- a zip file, spaces in name, made with the built-in archive maker of Tiger. Also here, the entire 'source code' of the zip is printed in the body copy.
- some final bits of text. readable.
On another computer, this email was not routed through a gmail account and was received by POP. not a single problem there. In fact, not ever.
This is not very cool

Do I need to configure Open Directory before I configure mail?

I am doing a slow step-by-step configuration of a new 10.6.2 box and I am marginally skilled. Before I migrate a handful of accounts from the old server to the new, I want to make sure mail services work on the new server. Later I would like to try experimenting with Open Directory. Since I will be creating local user accounts on the server to configure mail, will these migrate to Open Directory later or will I need to reconfigure the accounts? If the latter is true, it suggests I should install Open Directory first.
(I apologize if this belongs in another discussion group.)
Paul

I have discovered that the answer is that I do not have to configure Open Directory first. Found this on the OD discussion area:
