Deleting emails from a yahoo account through Mail
I am new to the Apple and I am able to get my emails from my yahoo account, but I believe that there is a way to delete the messages from my yahoo account through MAIL. Can I set Mail up automatically to delete these messages from my Yahoo account? Am I correct and if so, how is this done?
Otherwise, it does not seem very useful to access my yahoo account through Mail because I will have to go back to my yahoo account and clean through them anyway.
Thanks

Presumably you have a paid-for Yahoo account which permits POP* access (the free account doesn't). If you have this set up in Mail, go to Mail Preferences>Accounts>the Yahoo account: click 'Advanced' and tick 'Remove copy from server after retrieving a message' (though actually this is the default so it ought already to be ticked): set the pop-up menu below this to 'Right away'.
*i.e. through Mail

Deleting emails from my yahoo account
I have an issue when deleting emails from my yahoo account on my Mac. For some reason, I'll highlight the email(s) I want to delete, and hit the delete key. The email won't delete until it's highlighted again and I hit delete again. It has been doing this for a while and only does it when I access Yahoo on my Mac, and only my yahoo account. Does anybody have an idea of what might be the issue?
Are you using Mac Mail or going straight to Yahoo Mail using your browser...?
I never use Mac Mail so can't offer much help with it. If you are, try going straight to Sign in to Yahoo from your browser and see if you can correctly delete any unwanted messages that way. -
I receive email from a yahoo account and a gmail account. thunderbird always shows a notice when yahoo mail arrives but never for gmail and the settings are the same help! TIA
well turn it off and see if that makes a change. After all IDLE is a server technology. If Google supports it and Yahoo does not then configuring Thunderbird the same means nothing. (I have no idea if Yahoo support it or not)

Z10 keeps deleting emails from my Yahoo email
I just upgraded to the Z10 from a torch and I am having a problem.
On my torch when I deleted an email from my yahoo account the phone would ask if I just wanted to delete the email on my phone or all togehter. I used to like to keep a few important emails so that I could log in at home to get them.
On my Z10 when I delete the email it is deleted from the device and my yahoo account.
Is there a way to keep the emails at Yahoo but delete them from the phone?Hi and Welcome to the Community!
At present, no. Previously, BIS provided the interface between the BB and the mail server. Now, BIS is gone, replaced with a full on-device email client. The way it is presently designed, it is intended to be a replica between your server and your device (within the max 30 day rolling window). We are all hoping that some things such as you desire will return in future updates, but there is no way to know for sure. For now, it is what it is -- WAD (Working As Designed).
Good luck!

For some unknown reason, I have been having issues when sending and recieving e-mails from my Yahoo account in mail on my iPad, but can use mail just fine on my iPhone. Why is this, and how do I fix it?
I accidentally dropped my iPad 2 on Monday, it hit my foot, and the screen cracked. I recieved this iPad some time in August 2011, and no longer have any sort of warrany on it. Should I take it in to Apple and get a replacement, or have a third party fix it? And if so, how much would it cost, and where should I go?I am glad we were able to get your email working again. Please reach out anytime you need us.
Thanks,
Anthony_VZ

I am unable to delete emails from my orange account and my mail box is now full?
Please help - I am unable to delete emails from my orange email account and as a result my mail box is full and I cannot receive any emails. Whether I try to delete a message either individually or the entire inbox it just says my inbox is full and I need to delete some messages!Thank youSara
What domain is your email addy? Don't think there is much you can do about it. Seen others get in this bind with these small mailboxes. There might be a way round it depending on your domain.

My iPhone 5 suddenly started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP accounts
Yesterday, my iPhone 5 started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP email accounts. I use the native Mail app and have three POP emails set up on my phone. The number of messages downloaded across all of them is over 1,000 so far and date back over several months. One of these is a Yahoo account, the others are work email accounts provided by two different hosting companies. I have not changed anything on any of these three accounts at the server/hosting level. I also run an IMAP account on my phone, which has not been affected, so this is obviously a POP-only issue. I started to delete the messages only to discover that older messages were downloaded in their place. There appears to be a cap of 250 messages downloaded at a time, but there's no way to change this in the phone's settings (this used to be a feature, but disappeared some time ago).
I'm on iOS8.3 (upgraded a month ago with no affect on email). I have not changed any of my phone's email settings, so I don't understand why this has happened out of the blue. I have checked the phone's email settings and there doesn't seem to be a way to limit the number of messages downloaded.
Does anyone know:
a. why this has happened, and
b. how I get it to stop?
Thanks!Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck! -
Transfer emails from sky/yahoo to icloud mail
I have a sky email account and everthing was fine, with synchronising between imac, ipad and iphone. Sky has now changed from google to yahoo and synchronisation of sent emails seems to be non existent. I don't feel inclined to try and sort it out.
I have set up an icloud mail account and would like to transfer my emails from from my sky/yahoo account to icloud so that i have one integrated account. Is this possible and if so, how do i do it.
Any help would be appreciated
Regards, jonDo you have a forwarding feature with your Sky/Yahoo account? If so have all emails forwared to your iCloud account.
When you respond to those emails from your iCloud account you can add a note to alert them that you now have a new email account.

Cannot send emails from my yahoo account.,but can from internet explorer.Why?
Hi, I can receive emails on my yahoo account;read them and so on,but cannot reply to them.A message comes which states that they are trying to re-load the original mail ,but fail to.I went into the yahoo help page and was told if it worked on a different browser the fault lay with firefox (my default browser).It worked on Internet explorer ,which I hardly ever use.The problem first occurred yesterday ,no idea why.
hello, in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/947471 this thread] a user has found out that the problem might be related to the ghostery addon - do you have it installed too?

I cannot load my emails from yahoo. I tried all help suggestions.
If you deleted an email (old or new) and want it back, contact Yahoo for support on how to recover accidentally deleted emails.
If you mean that emails you didn't delete aren't showing up, then delete the Yahoo account form your iPhone then re-add it again. -
Unable to delete an email from a Gmail account in Mail
I am unable to delete an email from my Gmail (IMAP) account within Mail on my MacBook. I get an error message that says there are no matches with the email. It does not show in Mail on my iMac or on my Gmail account online. I have rebuilt the mailbox, but don't know any other steps to try to fix this problem.
Does anyone know how to delete this email?
Thanks -
Dudley Warneribosie /V.K. -
Thanks for the suggestions. I did not find the message on my Gmail Internet account. I went into Mail Preferences, and used the Advanced tab under my Gmail account to uncheck "Enable this account". The account folders disappeared. When I restarted Mail and enabled Gmail again, the email was initially gone, but a few minutes later, reappeared. I don't know anything else left to do except delete the account and recreate it If you think of anything else, please let me know.
Thanks -

I can't send email from my Yahoo account using my Iphone 4S
My Yahoo account was hacked yesterday so I reset the password and removed the cell phone number from my account (I have been getting weird text messages lately and thought it might be linked). I am able to receive emails but not send them. It gives me a message that "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed." I added my cell phone number to the account this morning. I removed the Yahoo account from my phone, added it back and restarted the phone. It is still not working. I checked the SMTP setting and it is correct. Any suggestions?
Hi. Did you change the password on your Yahoo mail on your PC ? This is the correct way to do it. Changing the password on your phone isn't good enough.
Use your PC to access your mail account then go to your "account details" to change the password. Once you have done this successfully go to your phone and delete and re-add your mail details.
I guess you are using BT Yahoo. Got caught with that one a week ago.
Hope this helps. -
Moving email from BT Yahoo to BT Mail
Since the announcement that BT was moving all mail accounts from Yahoo to BT Mail, I have been looking forward with anticipation to the day when I can properly synchronise my account on my Android phone. However the months have past and I have heard nothing about when my mail account is to be migrated.
Is there anyway I can find more information on the schedule for the move? I'm getting frustrated with the lack of updates on the BT site which still just says we will all be migrated by the end of the year. Well that is only a couple of weeks away and I'm yet to hear.
Some updates would be nice please.
Many thanks.Hi barnpiece,
Yes BT Retail know what is going on. BT Retail are following a system and software development plan and timeline . Over the next coming weeks you may be notified on additional information on the changes and migration of existing BT email accounts on the BTYahoo platform to the new BT mail system and platform .
You have to understand that it's not an easy task. The new system would have needed to be planned, developed, tested, trailed and then follow a system transition plan. All these stages take time if you want things to go smoothly.
I would rather BT Retail take there time to migrate over the existing BT email accounts to the new platform rather than do it in a hurry.

Since updating my ipad2 to ios 6, I have not been receiving my yahoo email messages. I went into the yahoo account but the incoming section does not appear, only the outgoing mail. Any suggestions?
You may also want to just wait a day or so. There seems to be randomly persistent issues with yahoo mail. NO idea if it's totally tied to iOS6 or not, but Yahoo was having issues before the software upgrade. I went through 2 periods where my 2 separate yahoo accounts wouldn't download mail for about a day or so before it resolved itself.
I simply went to the main yahoo site, which puts me on the mobile site and accessed my mail via the web in the mean time.
