Deleted emails keep re-appearing ??

Hi All
Very strange thing keeps happening over the last week or so :-
I have 3 email accounts on my iPhone when I delete any of these emails after reading them ( and emptying the trash ) they mysteriously keep re-appearing back in my in-box when I return to the iPhone after I turn it back on.
The emails are no longer on the main servers they originated from as I have deleted them after downloading them to their respective email accounts.
Has anybody experienced this ? and more important what if any is the fix for what appears to be a bug.
Kind Regards
Corrie

WOW! The same exact thing keeps happening to me! I went into the Apple Store and was told to try deleting the email account and then re-entering it. It's still doing the same thing! Please fix this! I am 100% sure it's related to the 4.0 update I did on my phone....never did it before the update, and now it does!

Mail sync with gmail problems - deleted emails keep re appearing

Learned all,
Upgraded to Mavericks and my main (work) email client is gmail forward to my mac. I simply can't delete emails from my inbox, they re appear after every sync. If I delete them on my phone they re appear after a sync. They remain in the google mail/gmail inbox, as accessed in a browser, marked deleted but still sitting in my inbox. I haven't noticed this before but then I haven't really looked.
This is bizarre, and fundamental. I have read the TidBITS article and cringe at the thought of having all my emails load back up to my mac. Also cringe at all the other accounts of issues that this resolution doesn't fix. My temporary work around - disable my gmail work email account on my mac, forward all emails from gmail to my icloud mail account/client. The biggest problem, and a show stopper, is that I can't send emails via icloud from my work email address. I assume that you can't add an alias with a different domain name? Anyway I had 3 and have to wait 7 days after deleting one before I can add another. 7 days??
Any wisdom or learnings from out there? Any advise appreciated, thanks.

Thank you, Ernie.
These are all IMAP. I see trash on the server and on MAIL. deletine Trash used to work from MAIL, but in last 4 months, if I want something to take effect, I work from the web mail of go daddy and MAIL gets the message.
So you suggest I go to Gmail and set up accounts ( I assume they will walk me through ) (starting from my current gmail acct that my android uses-- or start from scratch?) to receive email addressed to my current email addresses? Then by not transfering out of goDaddy, I won't lose lots of email and mail files, folders in the transition?
There is a discussion on this topic of GoDaddy delays, from 2010 and 2011. So I may not be alone with the problem now.
Best,
Gayle

Deleted email keeps re-appearing.

I have had this problem off and on in the past. It is back and worse than ever. I is bad enough I might chuck my iPhone in the river. I use cox.net for my email. My iPhone is set to remove messages from the server when deleted from the inbox.
Thanks,
Greg

Deleted emails keep re-appearing in inbox

For about the 10th time, I've re-received some emails that I had deleted. I even deleted them from the trash folder to see if they were just moved back in from there. Some of the emails (newest ones), reappear as "un-read", and the others show as read. I have iphone 3gs on 3.1.3 fw. Has anyone had this issue? and if so have a solution? Thx

Not sure how Yahoo works, but it might not be deleting the messages off the server. Have a look in:
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [Your Yahoo account]
Tap the 'Advanced Settings' at the bottom of the pop-up.
Under 'Incoming Messages', see what "Delete from server' is set to.
If it's set to 'Never', try 'When removed from inbox'.
That means it will remove if once you delete it out of your inbox and it shouldn't get confused and download it again. If you have other email clients, such as on your Mac or iPad, they will, of course, no longer be able to download those messages once they've been deleted via your iPhone. The other option is to set to delete them after 7 days, which gives you time to download the messages on another computer.

Mail account doesn't work properly, deleted messages keep re-appearing, others seem to disappear and reappear at random.

I have the same problem. Thankfully one which was missing came back. I printed it out and made a PDF of it since it was an important one I'd been looking for.
I have three icloud email accounts which folders for each one. Now they mostly come up in my inbox instead of the correct folder and they won't move to the correct one.
Come on Apple, fix this.

Deleted emails keep coming back on my iPad Air

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion my deleted emails keep coming back. I cannot get rid of them.

Deleted emails keep returning

Why do deleted emails keep returning on my mac? I use Mavericks OS.

Gmail makes it difficult to permanently erase messages.
Go to Gmail's web interface. Delete them there. Search in All Mail, select them, delete them, empty Gmail's Trash. Do this recursively until you can no longer find them anywhere.
After this it will take your iMac's Mail some time to sync with Gmail.
Then, examine your Gmail account settings in Mail. Verify that you have instructed Gmail to eventually delete messages.
Example:

Deleted emails keep reappearing-GoDaddy delay the cause.. How to relocate to gmail?

For 4 months my deleted emails keep reappearing 3-5 times. After 4 consultations with my web and mail host, GODaddy and 4 with Apple Geniuses and both blaming the other, An Apple trainer opined, and a GoDaddy supervisor Reluctlantly confirmed that there is a long delay in GoDaddy when I delete email in MAIL. Go Daddy sup admitted that they have had this problem for the same period I have been going crazy with it. He suggested that since they did not know when it would be fixed that I move my email accounts (not my web sites) from GoDaddy to Gmail, but not to do itmyself, or I might lose much! Apple genius does not wan to do it, nor does GoDaddy! Any suggestions?

Thank you, Ernie.

Emails keep re-appearing after deleting in icloud

I just updated my mobileme to icloud. When I delete my e-mails in my iphone or on my mac they keep re-appearing in my inboxes. Any idea how to make it stop?

Try restarting your Mac and your iPhone.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Deleted emails keep reloading

Every time I delete my emails they just reload. There are hundreds. I have tried most solutions. Any ideas?

Kersh
Thanks for those details! I just want to make sure I have this straight. You delete emails on the computer and/or the phone, but they keep re-appearing your phone phone's inbox? If you use the Comcast email client instead of the pre-installed Mail app, does this continue?

Deleted emails keep reappearing, can anyone help?

We have deleated the same emails several times but they keep reappearing, can anyone help

In mail, highlight on the left your mailbox, then on the menu bar click mailbox, then rebuild. The deleted emails should be gone.

How can I delete emails that only appear when I do a spotlight search?

I have a number of emails that are only locatable through a spotlight search which I am unable to delete. They all appear to be unread, although they were read. The only options I have when I bring them up are to "Cancel" or "Send". Choosing "Cancel" brings me to whichever email account I was most recently using. Hitting "Send" does, indeed, send them, but makes them no easier to delete.

The only way to delete them from the Spotlight cache is to totally restore your iPad as new.
Those emails will not show up in the mail app if you tap on then in the spotlight search. They have been removed from the device and will not reopen in the mail app.

I have removed one of my email accounts but the email keeps on appearing in my main account?

Hi
I have removed one of my email accounts but the email keeps appearing in my main account? - How can I get rid of this?

Do you have the removed account forwarded to your other account at the server?
If the account is not still in Thunderbird there is no way for it to check mail on that account. Even if it did it would not place the messages in a different Inbox.
Just to be sure when you go to Tools-Account Settings is the old account still in the list?
Use Tools on the menu bar and not the AppMenu button.
No menu bar? Press the alt key.

Help! My deleted contacts keep re-appearing...

Hi,
My brother gave me his BB 8900. I've deleted his contacts every way I know how, and his contacts keep re-appearing on the phone.
1. I've deleted the contacts through the Desktop software
2. I've a clean list of my contacts on Gmail and Yahoo address book for syncing.
3. I've deleted my bro's contacts on the back-up folder contacts.
4. I've no entries in my SIM Phone Book.
5. I set the Address Book Wireless Synchronization field to No.
I get to the point where everything looks clean on handheld and phone ... and 30 minutes later the unconnected phone has somehow restored the (600) deleted contacts into the address book
Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks.

Interesting. A clean start could help because I don't know whats causing it. You've done some good troubleshooting so far.
I recommend wiping the device so you can setup from scratch. This guarantees nothing from your brothers settings remain.
