Default mail app and gmail issues

Hi, I recently got fed up with Google denying us the possibility to switch off the dreaded conversation view.  So - I switched to using the default Sony email app connected to my gmail account.  Two issues:
When I delete a mail after reading it will often (not always) reappear in the inbox later.  Gmail has two options for what will happen when deleting messages, both produce the same error.  Didn't happen with the gmail app.
Scrolling when reading a mail is horribly slow.
Anyone have any tips?

The Gmail app is a direct link to Gmail so deleting from the Gmail app will delete said email however from the default email app that is simply put a forwarding address so the email will not be deleted - It may be deleted or made exempt from future sync'ing but you often find that if the email hasn't fully loaded then it will be seen as unread and will reappear

    This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
    Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
    If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
    So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
    To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
    There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
    Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
    Hope this helps,

  • Mail.app and Gmail issue

    Hi, I am using Gmail (Google Apps) and Apple Mail 3.5. Everything works fine except sending messages. Sent messages are stored in sent folder (right) BUT also in trash folder. Why? Any tips how to set correctly (Sent mail only to Sent folder)? Thank you,
    Jakub

    Did you ever figure this out? I am having the same problem except that it copies the sent message about 10 times to my trash folder. I am using gmail imap and the sent message also appears (10 times) in the trash folder when I access my email on the web.
    Thank You,
    Lindsey

  • Mail.app and Exchange issue

    Hello. I have 7 exchange accounts (45,000 letters in them) in my mail.app and every day i have a problem that mail.app delete all messages and start downloading it form server. Can any one help me with this problem.
    p.s. on the other macbook i have 1 exchage account with 18.000 messages and it works fine.
    Is this problem because to many exchange accounts or to many messages or because i use VPN for take mail from this accounts? Help me please.

    I can't even get the Exchange Mailbox to appear in Mail.app. The same account works for Calendar and Reminders (Tasks). Configuring as an "Other" type account also does not work. Instead I end up with an IMAP style account that can't be deleted from mail.app.

  • Mail 3 and gmail issues, notes/todo's in Mail

    Hello,
    I use Mail 3 with my google mail account using IMAP.
    I'd like to use the new notes/todo function provided by Mail. When I create a new note, it will be reset to the default values after a minute or two.
    And it doesn't appear in my iCal calender(s) at any time.
    I've tried both provided ways to store the notes: as mail on the server and as a local one. The problem is always the same.
    When I delete the "notes mail" from my gmail account using the web interface, Mail 3 hangs when I terminate it. Removing the note using Mail 3 solved this.
    But has anyone here an idea how I can use the notes feature with my gmail account (IMAP)? And is it possible to see my reminders in the calender?
    Thank's for every good idea,
    Felix

  • Unable to run native iOS7 Mail app and Gmail app at same time on iPhone 5s

    Got a new iPhone 5s.  Installed the Gmail app, it collects mail just fine.  BUT I'd like to run the native Mail app that came on the phone at also, as a backup...just in case.  The native Mail app keeps telling me that either the username or password are incorrect.  Anyone with help to fix this would be appreciated.  Thx.

    That would be a gmail issue.  From other threads there is a two-step verification when using gmail..Log into your account on a browser and double check the security.

  • Mavericks Mail app and Gmail Drafts folder

    After installing Mavericks I'm unable to unselect "Store draft messages on the server" and "Store sent messages on the server" checkboxes under my Gmail accounts settings. Unselecting both checkboxes and saving settings works for up to a minute or so - after that the check marks re-appear again by themselves. As a result I end up with dozens of half-finished drafts in the Trash folder after I finish the original and send it out.
    I used to have both checkboxes unselected prior to Mavericks, and everything was working fine.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I have also the same issue. I'm not able to unselect "Store draft messages on the server"
    Mail app just puts this tick back.

  • HT1338 problem with Mail app and Gmail

    In various occasions the Mail App freezes and the only way to close it is to go to the activity monitor en force quit the program cause it makes the CPU work at 100% without any results. Aditionally I setup my Gmail account in the Mail program according to the instructions and when I delete messages from the all mail folder after a while the appear again after a while.
    Any solutions to my problems?
    Thank you very much

  • Mail app and gmail

    I started using gmail on my mac mail app. because sbcglobal.net mail was unreliable.  When I send a message, multiple partial copies appear in the trash as well as one copy in sent mail.  My wife also started using gmail but doesn't have this problem.  What can I do?

    Maybe there are messages in folders other than Inbox? To get all unread messages, create a Smart Mailbox (see Mailbox menu) and select as criterion "Message is unread" (or something like that).

  • Mail.app and Gmail POP download problem

    I'm in the process of overhauling my entire email world. At the moment, I'm trying ot download all of my Gmail emails into Mail.app using POP. This isn't working well at all.
    My Gmail inbox has over 2000 emails and All Mail has over 9000 emails. POP is enabled in Gmail's setting for "all mail", not just "new mail".
    But when I go to download everything Mail.app's activity window tells me it's downloading x of 427 messages (and I have WAY more than that in Gmail!). So, what's going on?! Supposedly Gmail downloads in batches, but even if that's true, it's hanging terribly, even while just working with 427 emails.
    Does anyone have experience with this? I'm trying to figure out where the problem lies.... on the Gmail side, or the Mail.app side.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Since you do not need the All Mail folder when in Mail, you can select via browser and Gmail setting for POP & IMAP to exclude it entirely.
    Do a Google search with Gmail and Advanced IMAP Controls. To enable this particular exclusion, sign on to your Gmail account, click on Settings, then on Labs, and enable advanced IMAP control. Once that is done, you can then click on Labels tab in Settings and make some selections.

  • Mail.app and Gmail Problem

    Hi,
    I'm surprised I didn't have better luck in finding the solution to this.
    Why is it that when I have a new message in my gmail account, I see "1" in both my Gmail inbox and my mailboxes inbox in the Mail.app apple program?
    Can you tell me how to get rid of the gmail folder so that I ONLY have the mailboxes folder?
    Right now, when I click my mailboxes inbox --> unread message, it gets rid of the (1) but the (1) still stays on my Gmail --> Inbox.
    It is just a nuisance. Thanks.

  • Confusion with mail.app and Gmail using imap

    I've had a yahoo.com email address for years, and pay for Mail Plus and POP3, which I frankly don't even use. Now that I've confirmed, however, that I can successfully forward emails from my yahoo box to my new gmail box, I'd like to look into setting up mail.app for the gmail account using imap. Like most people, I access my mail from several places (home & work computers, Touch, and others), and imap makes sense as the right way to go.
    Last night I tried to set things up on mail.app on the Mac, and boy was it confusing in terms of the folders, etc. Is there someplace someone can point me for a sort of "beginner's guide to setting up Gmail/imap with mail.app"? Hopefully this "guide" would give me some hints on setting up various rules, etc. that would allow me to have a setup that makes sense: only one copy of emails, sent items in the sent items folder, etc.
    One more thing: can I set up Gmail/imap with more than one email client? For example, can I use mail.app at home and Thunderbird on the Windows computer in my office? And how is the creation of new folders (or labels, I guess, as Gmail calls them) on the web handled by mail.app (or Thunderbird)? I'm guessing that a new label created on Gmail on the web doesn't automatically result in a folder being created in mail.app (or Thunderbird), or does it? If this is correct (no folder created in mail.app until I create it on the Mac), is the message that was moved to a folder on the web found in mail.app in the All Messages folder (or whatever it's called)?
    Sorry for the basic nature of these questions...this all seems pretty complicated, and I'd like to get it right the first time. Thanks.

    BTW Thanks for the "head's up" that GMail now supports IMAP (I've been waiting for it!)
    I'm not sure what your confusion is, other than maybe the confusion between how folders and messages work in Outlook versus Apple Mail and IMAP. I've used both, and several other mail programs over the years.
    IMAP permits you to have directories which contain message folders. I make the distinction, because Outlook allows you to message folders which contain messages AND other message folders. I believe most implementations of IMAP do not allow messages inside of directories. Thus, a directory looks like a message folder, but it may only contain message folders, and not individual messages.
    Now, GMail appears to create message folders for each label you define in GMail, and messages which have several labels appear in each folder. If you copy the folders to your computer, you WILL have multiple copies of those messages, however if you leave them on the server, GMAIL does all the work and you only have one copy of each message.
    Special folders in GMail are all located in the directory [Gmail] and include the message folders "All Mail", "Drafts", "Sent Mail", "Spam", "Starred" and "Trash". Notice I say "directory" and not "message folder" for "[Gmail]". That is important.
    I cannot attest as to what GMail does when you create a folder from your mail.app client, as I have not done that yet. I would venture a guess that it will define a GMail label and mark any messages you "move" to that folder with that label. The GMail special folder "All Mail" contains all of your mail messages, and is equivalent to selecting "All Mail" when using the web interface.
    Your inbox messages will appear in the section with all of your inboxes at the top of your mailbox list. Make sure that you set your preferences to match the recommended preferences for Apple Mail when setting up your GMail account. Otherwise you will end up with duplicates and/or a lot of unnecessary data transfers to your Mac.
    Hope this helps. If not, please give a more explicit example of something that doesn't work the way you expect.

  • Mavericks Mail App and Gmail folders

    I have installed Mavericks on my MBA.  Now in the mail app, when I drag messages from the inbox to a gmail folder, they leave the inbox.  But if I click off of the inbox and then click back on it - they reappear in the inbox. 
    Anyone else having this problem?

    This is one of the largest bugs in Mavericks’ Mail app, which affects Gmail accounts and Google Apps email accounts. This used to work just fine in previous versions of OS X, so it is a brand new problem in Mavericks:
    Mail can’t delete messages from the Inbox unless Google’s “All Mail” folder is visible in Apple Mail. If you try to delete a message from the inbox, the message only disappears temporarily, then reappears moments later. It seems like Apple Mail never removes the “Inbox” label from the deleted messages, so the messages just keep reappearing back in the Inbox over & over again.
    The workaround is not a desirable one: It requires the user to make Google's “All Mail” folder visible to IMAP clients (via Gmail's "Settings>Labels” page). However, this workaround is not desirable because of 2 bigger problems:
    (1) Making the “All Mail” folder visible in Apple Mail will suddenly make dozens of gigabytes of emails start taking up valuable hard drive space, because every single email that has ever been archived on Gmail/Google Apps will suddenly be written to the Mac’s hard drive. This can be a real problem on a machine with a small hard drive, such as the MacBook Air. Hiding the “All Mail” folder prevents these messages from taking up valuable hard drive space.  Not to mention that all of these messages are DUPLICATES OF MESSAGES THAT ALREADY APPEAR in other IMAP folders, so showing the "All Mail" folder in Mail is absolutely pointless.
    (2) Whenever the “All Mail” folder is visible, every new message that comes into the “inbox" also shows up as a new message in the “All Mail” folder as well, so new messages appear like they are coming in twice. Also, users are forced to mark their messages as “read" in two locations: the “Inbox" AND the “All Mail” folder.
    The ideal solution would be for Mail to operate how it used to operate: Users should be able to delete messages from the Inbox, without having the “All Mail” folder visible in Apple Mail.
    Please report this bug to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback and hopefully they will fix it in a software update soon!

  • Ios 8 mail app and music issues

    AFter installing ios8 my mail app has practically stopped working. The mails are just not opening.  I have to go to safari to hotmail instead. Then i uploaded a lot of music last night and realised this morning not all songs synced. And i tried to add them today but it wont let me!! Really annoyed. Updated to ios 8.0.2 this morning and nothing has changed or improved. So annoyed now . Apple when will these issues be sorted??

    Oh, I had the same problem with the music. I had told it to sync all of my music, but it didn't.
    To solve this, I went to the "Music" tabs, unticked "Sync Music", then apply it (yes, this will delete the music off the iPhone). Then (even though it looks like the music is still there),  Then tick the "Sync Music" and apply that, and it should sync the music
