Deleted emails keep reappearing on my ipad

Recently emails that I deleted (over a year old) suddenly re-appeared in my inbox as unread.  I deleted them all again, and then this morning they reappeard.  Any suggestions?

I too am losing my mind. Tried initial reboot, etc. Then last night restored and reloaded/synced. On my POP account (earthlink) I continue to get it repopulating every time I delete an email. My resetting everything effectively wiped out my accrued emails which was fine since I pick them up on my laptop or via web if need be. But the 4 new emails CANNOT STAY DELETED!
So restoring wasn't an effective option.

  • 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.
    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,

  • Deleted emails keep reappearing on iPhone

    Ever since updating to iOS 4.2.1, I'm having a problem with deleted emails reappearing on my iPhone 3G.
    I have deleted these emails a dozen times. They are also deleted from the server, so they're not being re-downloaded.
    I have rebooted and reset the phone. I have deleted and re-created the email account. The emails keep coming back. I have about 25 of them now and they just won't go away, like zombies back from the dead.
    My email is a POP account at comcast.net. (IMAP is apparently not available for this account.)
    Any ideas on how to permanently expunge these deleted emails?

    I too am losing my mind. Tried initial reboot, etc. Then last night restored and reloaded/synced. On my POP account (earthlink) I continue to get it repopulating every time I delete an email.

  • My deleted emails keep reappearing!  cannot delete them!

    I have a weird problem. In Mail, I keep getting a ton of deleted old emails. They just reappear in the inbox. I rebuilt the envelope index file. I rebuilt the mailbox. Still same problem.
    It is a comcast POP email account.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help with this!

    I have the same problem
    I discovered that if I look at emails that have been sent to trash, select them and press delete they all come back into the trash. When I do the proper erase deleted messages then they don't.
    I noticed some people were having this problem on iphone as well.
    I now have emails coming back into the Trash weeks, or months after I have deleted them, particularly ones with photos attached that I have sent through Kodak EasyShare, and copied to myself!! does anyone know what I can do about this? apart from being a waste of time, I might receive 100 photos in one day which slows everything down and effects my data usage.
    And sometimes their are multiple maybe 5, copies of the same emails
    apart from that
    I often receive two copies of the same emails, one will go into my inbox and one to trash or wherever I have a rule set for it to go.
    I have loads of emails, I sort them all into folders with rules, and keep them for easy reference, especially if they are about work, would this have anything to do with it? Is there a limit on how many emails you can keep?

  • Deleted emails keep reappearing

    Starting today, when I delete my hotmail emails from my iPhone and then later I refresh the emails, the same emails that I had previously deleted appear again. Any help would greatly be appreciated as this is fairly frustrating to be receiving the same emails that I have already deleted.
    Thanks

    I receive new e-mails that go to my laptop gmail account on my i-phone. I delete the messages from my laptop, and on my i-phone. Whenever I clear out new messages on the phone, it gets previously deleted messages from my laptop. Currently it tells me there are 3000+ messages to receive. When I archive or trash my in-box, it accepts 50 more old messages. Can I get rid of these messages before they get to my i-phone in box? Can I delete them all at once? I don't want to have to tap every message into the trash. Is this something to be dealt with on the laptop or on the i-phone.

  • Deleted email keeps reappearing

    This happens frequently. 9/10 after I delete an email, it comes back into my inbox as new. Sometimes I delete the same email 4+ times before it finally stays deleted. iPhone 4s, iOS 7.0.4, What can I do to fix this?

    It looks like you're storing all of your messages on your computer rather than on the email server. Which means that when you connect, it copies all of the emails to your computer and mirrors them to the server; so when you delete them off of your computer and then reconnect it just downloads them again.
    My guess is that you're connecting via POP3 rather than IMAP. POP3 requires the emails to be downloaded to the computer in order to be viewed and cannot directly edit what is on the server itself, wheras connecting via IMAP stores exclusively to the server and mirrors the folder configuration.
    If that's the problem you would likely need to manually configure your email accounts again and using IMAP, provided your email host has IMAP capability. If it does you should be able to find the server settings and perhaps even instructions on configuring with IMAP. Check your email in a browser and find the server settings. You may have to hunt around a bit or contact your email client's support.
    Hope this helps! :-)
    If this doesn't work, repost and we'll see if we can't find a different solution.

    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.

  • Iphone 5 - all deleted emails have reappeared in inbox.  Why?

    Travelling around the USA and have been deleting redundant emails from my phone and ipad.  Last night, nearly 400 deleted emails have reappeared in my iphone inbox.   Not in my ipad, just my iPhone 5.
    Why and is this likely to keep occurring?
    Wonder what I can do to prevent this?
    Thanks

    my wife just had this same problem develop with her iPad 2 (not with her iPhone  or our iMac, all using the same email client, Comcast/Xfinity's webmail (which I dislike for lots of other reasons as well). My wife and I share the same address and the problem isn't happening on my iPhone5.
    Re-booting the iPad hasn't helped and I haven't tried a reset, but that didn't work for you. Have you had any success with fixing the problem? It's very frustrating. I've posted the same question on an Xfinity forum, but have no responses yet.

  • Why do my emails keep reappearing.

    Cannot delete my emails, keep reappearing. Tried changing settings and still reappears. Very frustrating and time consuming.

  • 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.

  • Song appears in itunes, delete but keeps reappearing

    song appears in itunes, delete but keeps reappearing. the song is youth from foxes downloaded from the itunes store for free , even though i delete it from either the ipod 5th generation itself or if i connect it to itunes and delete it from their every time i delete it , it will reappear in itunes if a resync. and theirs two copies of it idk why. i want to delete the song from itunes, i know the song will keep appearing on the ipod because of apples stupid idea trying to make me redownload it. the songs are both shaded in grey. solution plss

    Best route here is to focus initially solely on the iTunes Library.  Once it has all the Songs that you want, turn off iTunes Match, sign out of iTunes Store and restart the computer from cold.
    Moving to the iPhone would suggest a restore and fresh link to the library post the following steps.
    1.  Sign in to iTunes Store;
    2.  Turn on iTunes Match - allow 3-step process to run to completion;
    3.  Make secure backup of library;
    4.  Force iPhone in to restore mode - hold down 'power on/off' with 'home key' for 10 seconds
    5.  Attach iPhone via USB to computer and follow 'restore' instructions in iTunes
    6.  Once complete synchronise with library as required
    At this stage all required Songs should be on the iPhone - post iPhone back-up a good point to fully enable iTunes Match on the iPhone if required.

  • Mail deleted massages keep reappearing

    I am a Mavericks operating & macbook user. I have noticed that every time I use Mail and delete unwanted messages, they keep reappearing again.
    Is there a way to make Mac Mail is the Master and Yahoo/Gmail/Outlook is the slave, so that every action taken in Mail will be reflected in its relative mail box?
    Regards,

    Hello Joe.
    What type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)?
    Certain messages keep re-appearing in my inBox, even when I delete them.
    You may be able to get rid of those messages in Mail doing Edit > Cut (⌘X) (for best results do it with one message or just a few at a time), but you should remove them from the server first if they’re still there.
    Mail is only receiving some of the email messages sent to me.
    Do you have any custom rules? It looks like Mail is downloading all the messages, but your rules are processing them in an unexpected way...
    Open the Account Info window by choosing Get Info (⌘I) from the Action menu (gear icon) located below the mailbox list in the main Mail window. Does Mail display there the messages that it doesn’t download? Do they appear as already downloaded or as not downloaded yet (dot column)?
