Deleted Emails return on iPhone 5 on POP, SMTP, iCloud...

I am working to assist someone with their iPhone 5, because no matter what they do, deleted messages(mostly unread) keep coming back to their iphone as soon as the email pulls messages from the server. I have combed the support commmunity, and if I have missed the fix for this, i apologize, but if you could please link me to it i woud appreciate it.
Regardless of whether the emails are set up as POP or SMTP, they return. The emails link to Webmail at Networksolutions, from webhero via comcast, and from iCloud. All three have the same problem. I have all of the email accounts set to remove messages from the server after one day.
Please advise.

Go to your Mail on iCloud.com, click the gear icon on the lower left and choose preferences, then on the General tab confirm in the Mailboxes section that you have checked "Save sent messages to:" and have selected your Sent folder from the drop-down list.

How do I get deleted emails on my Iphone to sync with my Verizon server. I used "other app" to add Verizon acct.

I added the Verizon email acct using other. I get everything n I told it to delete from server under "advance" section, spoke to wireless people at Verizon n they say it just doesn't always work with an iPhone. I can't believe that. I have to delete emails on my iPhone, server with computer , and iPad. Bad enough with all the legitimate junk that I have to delete three times. I'm tempted to just use gmail. That one works just fine. Any ideas?

Verizon.net uses POP email. It's an older form of email protocol that wasn't designed to by synced across multiple devices. So, the people at Verizon Wireless were correct. You will have to delete on each device.
I use my Gmail account to collect my email from a POP account for just this reason.

That way, I don't have to give up either email account.

DELETING EMAILS FROM 3G IPHONE USING SECURING SECURE DELETE FEATURE ON 0S 6

DELETING EMAILS FROM 3G IPHONE USING PERMANENT EMAIL SECURE
DELETE ON LEOPARD 6.6.6? THIS IS AN EXCELLENT OF GETTING RID OF UNWANTED TRASH. APPLE PLEASE TAKE NOTE.

Pop accounts are really designed to access mail on ONE device, and only ONE device at a time. Having said that, do the following:
* Tap Settings on the iPhone Home screen.
* Now tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
* Tap the desired account under Accounts.
* Select Advanced.
* Now tap Delete from server under Incoming Settings.
* Select:
o Seven days to have iPhone Mail remove mail from the server a week after it has been downloaded.
o When removed from Inbox to make iPhone Mail delete mail from the server only when you delete it from your iPhone Mail inbox.
o Never to deep copies of all messages on your POP server.
* Press the Home button, when finished.
Be aware, that an important email's only copy should probably not be on your phone. But, that's the nature of a pop account.

How to delete email only from iphone 4s

How can I delete email from my iphone but not from my hotmail account?

Not possible with an IMAP or Exchange account.
If you are accessing your Hotmail account as a POP account with the iPhone's Mail app, deleting a received email from your iPhone should have no effect on the server. Not sure if Microsoft supports accessing a Hotmail account as a POP account.

TS3899 hi - why can't i delete emails once from iphone and ipad at the same time?

When I delete emails from the iphone they still appear in the ipad. Why? How can I delete from both devices at the same time?

You can and it should be automatic depending on your refresh rate. If your phone and iPad refresh every hour, or only on request, then the iPad will not show the change until you refresh the email account.
Next time you delete emails, try it....Refresh the screen on the iPad.
This only works if iPad has internet connection.

How can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

how can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

If you connect your iPhone to a computer running Linux (Ubuntu version in my case) it will become recognized as a normal USB memory pen-drive.
From there, you can use many methods to recover your lost deleted files.
TestDrive allows you to search the drive (iPhone memo) and gives you the possibility to recover deleted files. I'm not an expert, nor did it with iDevice by myself. But it worked for me with Symbian phone (Nokia)...

Check steps explained in this article.

HT1495 I delete emails on my Iphone 4s but it does not delete the email when I open my Ipad. Any help would be appreciated

When I delete an email from my Yahoo account on my Iphone 4s, it does not delete it from my computer or my IPAD. I am forced to delete every message three times. Any ideas?

You may well have a POP Yahoo account, in which case deleting emails on one device does not delete them everywhere else. POP accounts do not provide sync services like IMAP accounts (e.g. Apple mail). Usually, a POP account offers settings so that when you delete an email locally, that will also delete it from the server; however, if this email has already copied down to another device, that email will not delete from that other device. Or you can set a POP account so that deleting on a device will not delete from the server, thus all other devices will eventually get the email as well.

TS3899 Cant delete email address from iPhone

I added an email to my iPhone by following a link that was text messaged to me for work. It did not set up the email properly and to retry GoDaddy says i need to delete the email account from my phone......problem is...there is no delete option at the bottom like there is for my other email accounts. Maybe because this one came from a link that prepopulated the data...and do it wrong which is why It doesnt work!

it appears as a pop-up when I start typing in the "to" area within Mail. It is NOT in my contact list, and I simply want it to go away.
The only way to remove those address is restore the phone as new. Probably not worth the hassle.

Deleting email on iPad, iPhone and IMac questions

Our current settings have deleted email removed after 1 day and remove from server is set at never.
If we change the settings to remove from the server on the iPad and iPhone, will we loose it on the IMac or will it still be available?
We get a lot of duplicate emails to delete and don't want to use ICloud at all until we feel our info is safe.
Thank you for your help!

Multiple devices on a pop account are slow death. I finally dumped Comcast and a 20 yr e mail address over the issue.
If you delete from server, and the Mac has not yet gone and gotten the message, it is gone. The only way to manage mail across multiple devices is to use an I map account. You can read, delete, save and archive messages from any of the devices, and the action is replicated across all.
( the cloud is not the answer, although, in a broad sense, I map is all ready in the cloud....)
See if your ISP offers both impa and pop options. If so, all you need to do is flip your account to iMac. If not, then forever you will be getting and deleting duplicate copies of the same messages, and if you start deleting from the server, you will begin to lose stuff you thought you wanted to keep.
Keep in kind that the pad will delete stuff out of your inbox when you reach the limit on the number of items you specified in settings.

Tell your friend to get an IMAP or Exchange mail account. From what you describe, your friend has a POP account, and that's the way POP accounts work.
