E-mail Account And Messages Icon

Am I supposed to have my e-mails showing up in the messages catagory? I get my text messages in the proper place but I also get my e-mails there as well. I have an e-mail Icon but I get redundant  e-mails because they show up in both catagories. Did I set things up wrong and how do I stop the emails from going to the messages Icon? Or should I eliminate the email Icon and just have them all come to one place? It's a pain trying to organize the emails when I have to do it twice. Thanks

Hello MrSteve777,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
The messages icon is the main icon where all the messages and notifications go to on the BlackBerry Smartphone. If you have multiple email addresses configured on your BlackBerry Smartphone all of the emails will go into the messages folder. They will also show up under their email icons as well. You cannot disable this feature it is by design. However you can separate your SMS and MMS inbox from your Messages folder. To do so please follow the attached knowledge base link.

  • Deleted POP mail account and messages went with it.  HELP!!!!!!

    To start off, I am fairly new to the Mac world. I have been having problems with Mail and my outgoing smtp server. I thought that if I deleted my pop mail account and then recreated it it would stop hanging on my outgoing mail. I am a previous Windows user and this practice causes no harm there and I mistakenly drew the same conclusion here. So I deleted the account and then set it up again and low and behold all of my messages are now gone except for the 850 or so that I have had this year.
    Is there anywhere that I can find the old mail messages hidden on my mac? I'm sure that it has them saved somewhere, I just don''t know where to look. I would really appreciate any help. I had about 6000 messages from the last couple of years and I often need to search back through old emails.

    When you go to delete an account, a warning pops up displaying
    "This will permanently delete the account setup information, mailboxes, and messages from your computer. Copies of messages on the mail server, if they exist, are not affected."
    If you acknowlege the warning and click 'OK' then the account setup information, mailboxes, and messages are permanently deleted from your computer.
    If you want to have any hope of salvaging the data from the hard disk, you'll need to stop using the computer and either install data recovery software(FileSalvage, for example) on an external HD or send the disk out to a data recovery service.
    For future reference, if you find yourself wanting to start over with a Mail account-or any app-you can delete the .plist file for the app from Users/~/Library/Preferences

  • Mail accounts and messages have dissapeared

    Hi there,
    I logged into mail today to find that all my messages have just dissapeared along with the two mail account folders I use. I have just upgraded from tiger to leopard and had an initial problem which was rectified by moving the two .plist files and repalcing them and had been working fine for the last two weeks.
    The only thing I have done was change the Junk mail rules to put junk mail in a seperate folder. Have tried moving the .plist files again but no luck with that.
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Cheers
    LB

    I opened removed all the files under this folder in Finder: your account name/Library/Mail/Bundles
    and guess what? i can create the old accounts back in Mail again, and of course after relaunching the Mail, the accounts are still there!
    Hope this helps!
    Good luck!

  • I have duplicate mail accounts and deleted messages keep redownloading in gmail

    I am using Mountain Lion and I have a me.com email account, gmail account, and sbcglobal.net account.  I set up my accounts in iMail and I use iCloud, but now I have duplicate mail accounts and every time I delete messages from my gmail account, the next time I go into Mail, all the deleted messages are back in my gmail account.  How do I stop this from happening and how do I make it so that I don't have duplicates of everything!

    All 3 email accounts show up under Inbox, but all three also show up as iCloud, sbcglobal.net, and gmail.  The iCloud account will occasionally get duplicates, the sbcglobal.net account only gets mail that sbcglobal.net has put into a "bulk" folder and seems to be all junk mail and does not show up in the sbcglobal.net inbox account and the gmail shows up in both places, but I can delete messages in the gmail inbox account and they do not download again, but the second gmail account is the one that keeps redownloading the already deleted messages into the gmail "all mail" folder.  I have tried deleting the gmail account and have gone to gmail's help page, but they are behind with set up for Mac Mail.  The set up is for Mail 3.0 and not 6.2.  It keeps downloading over a thousand emails into this gmail "all mail" folder.  Is there any way to stop this?

  • Need multiple 'MAIL' Icons.   Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain

    Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain the butt.  This has been a request from Apple users for many years.    it's great you can now combine all emails into one, but some people want them kept separate and have separate icons on the main page.   They could easily do this by having one "MAIL" account as white and another red.  Or put MAIL 1 and MAIL 2.    Or an actual label that the mail accounts are called on the ICONS!!  
    Help!

    ...I could switch back and forth between accounts while in the mailbox, with one button.  I think that is what you are referring to?  Whoever said it's just a simple switching - you obviously haven't had the pleasure of using an Android device.  It's not that quick to go back and forth - definitely not efficient...
    Not that it matters a lot, Android vs iPhone interface is largely a matter of personal preference and what you know... I'm not sure which one you're saying is not efficient...
    In any event...
    I currently have two email accounts setup.  My iPhone main page Mailbox settings reads:
    Mailboxes
    Inboxes
    All Inboxes
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    Accounts
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    I wish there an efficient way to move back and forth while in the "Inbox" between accounts.  Also, Why does one gmail account show as "Gmail" and another as the actually address?
    The names are based on the names you gave the accounts when you set them up.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the account you want to re-name. Go to the "Description" field and put in what ever you want.
    Second, there is no way to quickly choose a bunch of emails to delete. I have to manually go into each one and move it to the Trash folder.
    If you tap the edit button in the upper right while in mail, you can select multiple items to move, delete or mark (flag).
    I don't want any of the condescending remarks, that I've read here and in other forums.  I'm honestly looking for a solution, which I think you are too!  One thing I realized is that iPhone users in these forums are really defensive and quick to say "that's how it is, live with it, if you don't like it go away"  Um...the only thing that tells me is you are pretty bitter and have kept telling yourself that, to force yourself to like your device.  I prefer to express my issues, and find solutions.  There is ALWAYS a solution...
    I think what you will find is that many people here, myself included, tend to get a bit short with people who start off with attacks or whining about how something has been asked for for years and should be easy, rant about things that have already been beaten to death multiple times in the forums, talk about how much better Android or BB are at something (really... if it's that much better, why did they buy an iPhone to begin with?), etc., or continue to ask questions that could easily be answered with a simple search, or even just by looking back at the last dozen posts to the forum, half of which probably asked the EXACT SAME question.
    I don't think any of us go out of our way to be rude or uncivil.  That said, attacking the people who are attempting to help you is much more likely to generate a response of 'if you don't like it, go away', than it is to generate something that will be truly helpful.

    If the word "Off" is sort of cloudy and the settings are greyed out - that means you do not have restrictions enabled - but just in case - do you use a passcode to lock the iPad?
    Exactly what message are you getting and where are you getting the message - what does the "email icon" mean?

  • How can I reinstall my mail accounts and get all my mails back?

    My internal HD died a few days ago . Fortunately I did a Time Machine backup a couple of hours before it happened .
    Now my MacBook Pro is back from the repair center, with a brand new HD and Mac OS 10.6.8 installed (the system I had) .
    But how can I get all my mails back? Indeed I used Mail to manage many mail accounts, and some of the inboxes or local mailboxes contain messages that are a few months if not years old. I coud reconfigure my accounts, but then I only get the mails of the last few weeks downloaded (those that were not erased from the pop3-server). Is there a possibility to get all the mails (including outbox) as it was before the crash?
    By the way, I'm also still looking for my address book and my iCal calendars !!
    Thanks for help.

    I have a MacBook Air, bought in 2010 or 2011.  It is running OS 10.6.8.
    I have an iMac that is the same age as my MacBook Air.  My iPhone is 2nd or 3rd generation.
    None can support "the Cloud".  I use gmail and my iPhone and both computers are all synced.
    I can't get email on my new iPad that does use "The Cloud".
    Please help.

  • Pop mail account and duplicates on mail.ap

    Hi,
    Mail is duplicating messages, I have a pop mail account and the preference setting is to erase messages on the server.
    Some duplicates are from Nov 2006; after I erased all messages using the terminal and ssh connection.
    I was told to rebuild mail index and did it, no improvement.
    .......... any help appreciated, I have invested many hours into erasing duplicates ... thanks, Garrett
    Why don't you try rebuilding your Mail index:
    1. Quit Mail if it's running.
    2. Go to ~/Library/Mail and delete the Envelope Index file.
    3. Restart Mail and wait for it to import your existing messages. When that's done, any duplicates or ghost messages should be gone..

    Sorry, both at once is confusing in retrospect.
    Just meant backup the whole works and drag the current cache & envelope out of their locations to the desktop.
    What about the plist?
    You can make a Copy of that to move to the Desktop. Sometimes that needs to be made anew also, but requires putting in account info and such, so we generally wait on that one.
    What about the files on the desk top?
    If everything works right, we can trash them, if nit we can mive them back.
    I'm not sure from these ideas what might be the result or why there is a problem in the first place.
    Same here, but those files can become corrupt.

  • Multiple mail accounts and contacts

    I have multiple mail accounts and too often it happens that I find out that I did not use the correct mail account for the person I mailed to. Wouldn't it be nice to indicate for each contact which mail account shall be used to mail to? Almost always this is contact related, isn't it? And of course this would have the required effect in OS X and in iOs.

    In Mail app you can set which email account will be default to start new message (Mail->Preferences->Composing tab->Send new message from) OR if somebody sent you an email, if you will replay to it, then your email will be sent from the same email account on which you received email.

  • I'm not receiving e-mail on my "New" iPad, and I want tdeleted my yahoo mail account and reinstall it.  When I go to settings to delete the account, it says I will lose everything in notes, calendars, reminders, etc.  Can I delete ONLY the e-mail account?

    I'm not receiving e-mail on my iPad (3).  I want to try deleting my yahoo mail account and reinstalling it, but when I go to settings to do this, it appears that I will lose my notes, calendars, reminders, etc.  Is this right, or is there another way to do this?

    Give it time. Yahoo has had persistent issues the past few weeks. wait 24 hours or so and then try again.

    Hi, I have an e-mail account no longer valid, I need to move my contacts to a new e-mail account and delete the old one.  How, help?? Phone is a 3GS

    So the answer to my question is yes - from an old Exchange account that was provided by a previous employer.
    If so, you can't.
    You can't merge or transfer contacts that were synced over the air with an Exchange account with another account, and the same for syncing the contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer. This is how most employers want it.

  • How do I synchronize my e-mail accounts and folders

    Hi everybody on this line...
    I am using a Powerbook + a Mini mac and I would very much like to read/delete/save all my incoming e-mail on both machines without doing the work twice (on each machine). So how do I synchronize my e-mail accounts and folders (when I delete on e-mail on one of the mac it will also be deleted on the other machine or if I move an e-mail to a folder, it would also me moved to the same folder on the other machine).
    I am award of the possibilities that .mac give me but as far as I know I can only use .mac for my mac e-mail account ([email protected]) and not for my other accounts that I have from my internet provider ([email protected]) which is a pop account.
    I hope you understand my question.
    Thanks in advance

    You're welcome.
    Could you please make a totally run down (step by step) of
    how to synchronize one mail account between to machines.
    There is nothing else to say, really. Locally stored mailboxes cannot be synchronized, period. Mailboxes stored on the server are synchronized automatically without you having to do anything else. If there is something you don't understand, you'll have to ask specific questions.
    The only way to have an exact copy of all your mail in both computers for locally stored mailboxes is to copy the entire ~/Library/Mail folder between them every time. Mail shouldn't be running on either computer while you do this, and it would be a good idea to copy ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist as well.
    right now the inbox of my Imap account is showed
    together with my other e-mail accounts inboxex
    As it should be. Mail organizes the standard mailboxes by type instead of by account, so that you can look at them both individually and combined as if you had just one of each type.
    ut it is also showed futher down in my "menu" wtihin
    the mail program, with a logo as a black ball,
    together with two folders that I have made (Prut
    mappe) and (choir OF young believers).
    This is also normal. I assume the "menu" you're talking about is the mailboxes list. Since Mail organizes standard mailboxes by type, the rest of mailboxes must be shown separately. In Mail 2.x, local custom "On My Mac" mailboxes are shown ungrouped at the root level of the mailboxes list, and an account group is displayed for each IMAP account to organize custom mailboxes stored on the server.
