E-mail issues with gmail

Why do I keep getting "empty" e-mail messages, " no sender" no message and impossible to delete?

Try turning the account off and on and see if they disappear : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Mail.app with gmail setup question

    hello,
    i have a large gmail account i have been using with mail.app for a long time and all works normally. however the "gmail style" is getting a bit out of control for me with the duplicates in sent/all mail. my processing is simple, after reading an email i archive it (so my inbox is always clean) so it means i move it to all mail. but since sent messages are also in all mail i'm pretty sure mail.app is storing these messages twice and whenever you search for messages you always have to filter through the duplicates. I think there are some newer ways to sync mail.app with gmail and i just wanted to ask what's the best solution to this common issue?
    thank you,
    rick

    thanks for the reply. yes that is what i do sorry if i wasn't clear enough. actually the messages coming in are not duplicated since once i move them to All Mail there is only one copy there in All Mail. it's the sent messages since they are saved once in Sent and once in All Mail. does that make sense and how do other deal with this?
    thanks again,
    rick

  • Mail rebuild mailbox issue with Gmail

    I set up Mail 4.6 to receive and send e-mails to and from Gmail as per the instructions on the Gmail site and used additional information on this forum.
    What is happening is whenever I rebuild the gmail folder it downloads again all the files I have deleated. I rebuild after deleting a lot of Spam and e-mails I no longer need.
    As recommended the account is set as a imap account.
    Under the mailbox tab it is set:
    DRAFTS: Store draft messages on server - box not checked
    SENT: Store sent messages on server - box not checked
               Delete message: dropdown set to: One day old
    JUNK: Store Junk messages on server - box not checked
              Delete message: dropdown set to: One day old
    TRASH: Move deleted message to the Trash mailbox - box is checked
                 Store deleted messages on the server:  - box not checked
                 Permanently erase Delete message when: dropdown set to: One day old
    Under the Advance tab it is set:
    Enable this account - box is checked
    Include when automatically checking for new messages - box is checked
    Compact mailboxes Automatically - is greyed out - box is checked
    Keep copies of messages for offline viewing: dropdown set to: All messages and their attachments
    I am not sure is this last item of  'Keep copies of messages for offline viewing' refers to the the Gmail server or the mail box - if it is the gmail server then I guess Mail is just syncronising with this; thus any mails I delete will be down loaded again. ((All the other mail servers I use I set under Advance tab to 'Remove copy from server after retrieving message' - but this option is not shown for gmail.
    Two things are happening:
    a) When I delete files in the Mail, Gmail folder the next time I rebuild the mail box I get 1000 + emails down loaded; even though I may only have deleted 30 or so.
    b) At other time mail will show downloading e-mails in the blue download indicator, but no new emails appear.
    Would welcome some direction on how to resolve these issues; thank you.

    The issue with g-mail became cronic. Now I can't delete e-mails received to my gmail account.
    When I try to delete emails in the gMail or Mail inbox the following message is show.
    The Message could not be removed to the mailbox (null)
    The destination mailbox "(null)" does not allow messages to be moved to it.
    This started after following the recomendation I found in the forum to sync gmail folders to the Mail - folders.
    I am looking for solution to get back to the original condition that while not what it should be it is better than now.
    Was hoping for solution were I wouldn't have to delete gmail account from mail then start again.
    Any ideas welcome as I would like to delete emails in the gmail folders in Gmail without logging into Gmail every time.
    Thank you

  • Using Mail Program with Gmail, Mail automatically bcc:s me on every email

    I am using the Mail Program with my Gmail acoount. It works fine except Mail automatically bcc:s me on every email I send. I checked the Mail preferences and the box is unchecked in the composing section "Automatically cc: myself".
    This does not happen when I use the Gmail.com web access, only when I send emails through mail.

  • Z10 Issues with GMail Imap / Microsoft Active Exchange

    Hi,
    I have seen lots of posts coming in on here and on crackberry.com about issues with emails. But I couldn't find any posts on the issues that I am having. 
    Just purchased a new Z10, coming from a BB 9900. 
    I would like to setup my gmail account on here but I am getting unexpected results. I have tried many different ways, gmail, imap, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync and pop3. 
    What I find different from everyone is that I have a bunch of filters set up that auto direct some emails away from the inbox and into labels (folders).  So I know things have changed from the 9900, but the way it happened on there was that a new email would show up in my unified inbox on the BB whether or not it was filtered. Then after reading it, I would have to search for it because it wouldn't actually be stored in the inbox. Which I was fine with.
    We'll have my email description setup as "Personal"
    Issues that I am having:
    Imap set up:
    - When I go from hub to my "Personal" box, it is a duplicate of my inbox. Looks the same as my inbox in mail.google.com, all nice and dandy.
    - Emails that go directly to my inbox show up nice and quick and give me a notification in the hub etc.. that an email has shown up. 
    - Now when I receive an email that is being filtered. Gmail.com has it right away in my labels. So I know it's there. I can wait the 15/30 minutes that is setup for the sync, but I never get a notification of the email. If I go to the folder (by clicking on the drop down by the email description) then it shows up there with the yellow mail saying that it's a new mail. But there still isn't a notification saying I got a new email. 
    So that's IMAP.
    M$ Exchange ActiveSync set up:
    - Initially, going straight to my personal box from the hub makes it look somewhat like what it did on my 9900. Inbox, and filtered messages all showing up in the default view. 
    - If I receive a NEW (not part of a conversation) message that is/is not being filtered it shows up in this default view and I get a notification in the hub.
    - Once I read that email, then go back to the default view. IF it is a msg in the inbox, it disappears and the only way I can find it is by going to the drop down then to the Inbox. But this seems to be random, sometimes it stays, sometimes it disappears. Also, if it gets moved directly to the inbox and I get a reply to that message I don't get a notification for a new email.
    - If the email is a filtered email, it stays in the default view. 
    - Now if I get an email that is part of a conversation to a filtered email, I don't get a notification that I have a new email, but if I go to it from the hub, it's marked as a yellow mail symbol stating that it is new. Read that email, it stays in the default view.
    So that's M$ EAS.
    Email:
    *******@gmail.com, so not a Paid Account or anything, just a regular gmail account. IMAP settings turned on and setup. 
    Hub Settings:
    Display Style: conversation
    Display order: name, subject
    display message count: on
    display new message indicator: on
    show filed messages: on
    show sent messages: off
    Download images automatically: off
    delete message confirmation: off.
    Oh when I tried the gmail setup I believe it just used the same settings as IMAP. Pop3. just a disaster, all my messages were brought in (sent/receieved) marked as unread. Won't even bother with Pop3.
    I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong with my setups, or that this is the way it is designed. I really don't want to have to check each folder everytime to see if have a new email. And I don't want to change my gmail setup so that nothing is filtered. I thought I had solved it with the M$ EAS but with the random moving of messages to other directories, it's a no go aswell.
    If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for me it would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm the author of the article linked to above.  I appreciate the reference, but I don't think my article solves the OP's particular issues.  To date, I've not found a way to enable notifications on new content in subfolders.  I think this is a limitation in the BlackBerry 10 email client.
    Since the paint is still wet on this OS, we can expect to see some improvements in forthcoming service releases.  CalDAV for example is known by BlackBerry to be broken with Google Calendar.  No ETA to fix at present.  BlackBerry will have to address that, and soon.
    I don't yet know if OS 10 is going to gain the traction the BlackBerry needs to survive in the market.  If it does, I suspect we will see some third party email apps appearing in BlackBerry World in the future, with enhanced IMAP functionality.  There's some precedent for this and we've seen similar happen on other mobile platforms.  In any case, until BlackBerry does some email client rewrting, or an enterprising developer plugs the gap, I think the OP's niggle is going to remain.  At the time of writing, BlackBerry World is showing a White Screen of Death.  Figures.
    One thing I'd urge all Google Apps users (especially of free accounts) to bear in mind is that Google will be pulling the plug on ActiveSync in the very near future.  I've blogged about this in more detail, in a followup to my previously-mentioned post: Gmail + Google Apps on the BlackBerry Z10.
    I hope this clarifies the position, even though the reality is less than satisfactory.

  • Mutt new tags issue with Gmail via IMAP

    Hi all,
    I've been using Mutt for a while and I very much like it.
    However, Gmail's IMAP implementation is a bit weird and causing me some troubles. I'm accessing my Gmail account directly via Mutt (NO offlineimap and NO trash patch). In particular, I'm getting lots of emails marked as new in my All Mail folder that I've already read.
    I've realized that if I receive an email, then read it (or remove the new tag), mark it as deleted and then sync-mailbox, when I go to the All Mails mailbox it's still tagged as new.
    If I read the message, sync-mailbox (note this additional sync), mark it as deleted and then sync-mailbox once again, then it doesn't appear marked as new on the All Mails mailbox.
    Any clues? This is really driving me crazy. I must be doing something really wrong but I can't figure out what. I've already tried setting delete_untag without luck.
    Thanks in advance.
    For the record, I'm using Mutt 1.5.20 (with IMAP support but no trash patch). Here's my .muttrc:
    set realname = "..."
    set from = "..."
    set imap_user = $from
    set imap_pass = "..."
    set folder = imaps://imap.gmail.com/
    set spoolfile = +INBOX
    set postponed = +[Gmail]/Borradores
    set smtp_url = smtp://[email protected]:587/
    set smtp_pass = $imap_pass
    set copy = no
    set certificate_file = ~/.mutt/certificates
    set header_cache = ~/.mutt/cache/headers
    set message_cachedir = ~/.mutt/cache/bodies
    set sort = threads
    set sort_aux = reverse-last-date-received
    set pager_index_lines = 6
    set markers = no
    set timeout = 120
    set delete = yes
    set beep_new = yes
    bind index y imap-fetch-mail
    macro index pr "<change-folder>=INBOX<enter>"
    macro index pe "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Enviados<enter>"
    macro index pb "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Borradores<enter>"
    macro index pt "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Todos<enter>"
    macro index ps "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Spam<enter>"
    macro index pp "<change-folder>=[Gmail]/Papelera<enter>"

    I have this same issue using gmail with offlineimap -- because of the multiple tags, removing the INBOX tag (deleting from the inbox) doesn't remove the Unread status from the version stored in the All Mail (or archive) folder. I think we'd need a macro that detected the duplicate mail and marked both as read -- not sure if that'd work or not.
    I'd also like to figure out how to tell if an incoming message was automatically tagged with another label by my gmail filter (display what other labels are assigned to a message in any view).
    Anyone got any ideas?

  • Outgoing mail issue with my domain

    All right I'll lay it all out in as much detail as I can...thanks in advance for any insight you can give me.
    OS: Tiger 10.4.7 (latest security updates)
    Mail ver: 2.1
    I have three e-mail accounts: gmail, dot mac and my own domain.
    As of right now, I can send outgoing mail through my gmail and dot mac accounts. My domain mail is dead when trying to send through Mac Mail.
    Gmail settings:
    SMTP: smtp.gmail.com
    Port: 587
    SSL: On
    Auth: Password
    Username: (myaddress)@gmail.com
    Password: (mypass)
    Dot Mac settings:
    SMTP: smtp.mac.com
    Port: 25
    SSL: On
    Auth: Password
    Username: (my username)
    Password: (mypass)
    Domain settings:
    SMTP: mail.(mydomainname).com
    Port: Tried 25, 587, 110
    SSL: tried both on and off
    Auth: tried none and password
    Username: Tried just my username and tried full with @(domainname).com
    Password: tried Webmail pass and control panel pass
    Again, I have no problems sending with the other two accounts. But I get "could not send message using server mail.(domainname).com" error message. This after the spinning wheel for about 30 seconds.
    Now, both the incoming and outgoing server are mail.(domainname).com. I can receive messages through the account just fine. And I can send mail through my Webmail setup at my domain name, too.
    I contacted my host (iPowerweb) and they set up a test account and said they are not seeing smtp issues, either.
    I recently switched hosts and I was having the same issue with the previous host, too. In fact, I used to be able to send e-mail through my previous host with the same domain, but it just quit working one day.
    I do not believe it is a port issue as I am able to send on both 25 and 587.
    Previously I just accepted that I wouldn't be able to use Mac Mail to send through my domain. But I am unwilling to accept that fact anymore...
    Any ideas folks?
    Again, thanks...
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    Typically, Port 587 would require at least Password Authentication -- using None as Authentication would not be expected to succeed. If None is the correct setting, then Port 25 would be the necessary Port.
    The fact that accounts in the same domain work, is not definitive, in my opinion, since it might be permitted without Authentication, whereas other sending activities might not.
    Without regard to blocking, sending with a third party SMTP involves establishing "trust", and trust is either established by Authentication, or by being identified by the venue where your ISP can ensure you are trustworthy, and this typically must require the use of Port 25.
    The change might be that as a Spam fighting measure, your ISP has only just now required authentication on Port 587, although I think this has already been nearly universal.

  • Apple Mail Archiving with Gmail

    Hello... I use Gmail and I'm having an issue with the new Archive feature. When I click it, it creates a new [IMAP]Archive label. I'd rather it remove the label Inbox and move it to the All Mail folder like the Gmail interface. If I click the Trash icon, it, of course, moves the email to Trash, which will be deleted after 30 days.
    On the iPhone/iPad, if you click the Archive button, the email moves to All Mail correctly and labels All Mail as Archive. This only does not work on Apple Mail.
    Also, if I click on All Mail and choose "Use This Mailbox For" option, it doesn't have Archive as an option.
    Any workarounds or fixes for this problem?

    I think one way of doing it is going into settings, Accounts, then Mailbox Behaviors, then unchecking "move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox". When you click the Trash button, you will then be moved to the All Mail folder. Clicking on the Archive folder will create that new Label.

  • HT6030 I am still having issues with GMAIL not syncing or moving it's duplicating items as I move them to folders and my inbox is overflowing now..... help?

    according to the last update it was supposed to fix the gmail issue in apple mail with syncing/archiving/etc. now it is not only duplicating but still not syncing properly and moving emails once I've moved them/ My inbox is overflowing and this is NOT acceptable.

    as rediculous as this is, I enabled "all mail" under the labels, then went into the actual apple mail settings and checked some box about updateing immediately (for deleted items) . then I had to quit mail then open it back up  - it "appears" to have synced properly. I'll let you know if it all comes back, but this is really a pain in the butt, I swapped from Entourage a few months back because it started acting weird with gmail.
    anyone have any other mail options if this continues to not work? I don't want to have to pull gmail in my browser to move read items each day.
    thanks for all the help.

  • Mail issues with Apple's Mail

    I was using Outlook Express to send & receive mail.  And then (because Outlook Express has been giving me fits with errors and needing to put my password in every time I wanted to use it)  I switched to Mail (the one that came on my Mac).
    And now, with Mail, something crazy is happening on my iPhone and iPad.  It showed that it was downloading and downloading and downloading, but I don’t know what it was downloading.  Archived stuff?  Everything that is in everything in every folder on my Mac?
    Then it stopped downloading stuff, and now it won’t send, I get an error saying that it Cannot Send Mail.
    I tried to delete my email account from settings so that I could start over, but the gear just spun and spun for over 30 minutes.
    I have no idea what is going on, but I think that it must be connected to the fact that I switched from Outlook Express to Mail.
    Please, if anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

  • Messages getting corrupted in Mail app with Gmail

    I'm having a following recurring problem with Mail app and my Gmail (company) account: At least once a day Mail app database is getting corrupted / out of sync with Gmail account. Mail is showing most of the mails correctly in the UI but some of the new messages are not the right ones but rather copies of older, typically already deleted emails. I.e. Instead of showing the real new msg content (subject, sender, msg body) it is showing in its place an older already deleted msg. How do I know: I go and check what Gmail webmail shows in browser window.
    Rebuilding account sometimes works, often not. Usually I have to rebuild, close mail app, start again to get it back in sync. I have tried once deleting all Envelope-index files in Mail Library so that it did a longer rebuild. Helped for few hours and then this started again. Mail app is getting corrupted at least once a day. Very annoying because I cannot trust what I see, but have to check constantly webmail, which I would rather not use as my main tool for mail.
    This problem started already with Lion and continued with Mountain Lion.
    I guess next step is to delete all my account & setting and re-configure Mail app. Any other tips?

    I'll chime in here to say that it affects me too.
    Using gmail and mail ActOn to move messages around in mail.app. I'll start trying to see if I can make the corruption happen without using ActOn. I didn't have this problem in 10.4; and I only spent a week with 10.5 so I don't remember it happening then.
    How do you identify the messages in the the finder for deleting so they can be re-downloaded? I've been accessing my corrupted attachments through gmail's web interface, so your work around would be easier than mine, assuming there is an easy way to find the right message.

  • Outgoing Mail issues with snow leopard

    I know this has come up before, but randomly Mail cannot send outgoing email. Fails to connect to outgoing sever. I'm at 10.6.6, and don't want to update because of font/pdf issues with 10.6.7. I have mac pro 2.8 quad. A friend who has updated to 10.6.7 has same problem with Mail. Last computer using Tiger was perfect. I've tried all fixes, and issue still occurs randomly. Can't apple patch this without a major update? Does apple read discussions and act on them?

  • Constant security issues with gmail in firefox and no words on buttons.

    I have firefox 10.0.02. I did a clean install on my system and installed bitdefender immediately afterward. I have been having constant security errors since then with regards to SSL certificates. I will get the error messages for invalid security certificates constantly, but only with a few sites (mozilla add-ons and gmail/google images sites specifically). Additionally, some of these sites will only load in plain text without styles as opposed to html. Finally, often gmail, or google images will have issues with loading certain artifacts, such as the test on the forward reply and other buttons in gmail, and the images in google images will often not load with only grey rectangles instead. Bitdefender's root certificate will also not install, despite constantly prompting to close firefox and install, which I occasionally let it do, with no result.
    I've tolerated this problem for several months now, but now that I am working on a business and a website constantly with multiple email accounts, it is getting completely frustrating.

    You need to take that up with Bitdefender support or uninstall that program if you can't make it to work properly.
