Email and junk mail/deleting mail...re-downloads junk into inbox!

When I mark an email as junk, it re-downloads it and puts it back into the inbox. Also, Mail is VERY slow when doing this (3 minutes to delete an email??) on a mid-2010 iMac 27"...I cannot clear my inbox of trash and junk when it re-downloads everything, and then marks it as unread a SECOND time (even though it seems to know the messages were previously marked as junk) Mail has gone from being efficient under 10.7 to clunky and unresponsive in 10.8. Please help!!

I can't tell from what you wrote, but I wonder if you have the email setup as POP and not IMAP. Re-downloading is typically associated with a POP setup.

That is a function of your email account, if it is an Imap account it will sync, if it's a POP account, it won't.

I have been unable to download adobe acrobat pro, which I purchased on a month to month basis almost exactly 1 year ago, since I purchased it. I just received a renewal email and it had a link to download the program and for the first time when I clicked

I have been unable to download adobe acrobat pro, which I purchased on a month to month basis almost exactly 1 year ago, since I purchased it. I just received a renewal email and it had a link to download the program and for the first time when I clicked on the link it actually sent me to a page that had the icon to download now. I clicked on that, but when I went to open the file and start downloading after about 3 minutes into downloading it says an error had occurred. Can anyone help me?

I am a little worried. If you are an existing subscriber why would Adobe need you to download... I wonder if the message is a fake.
I'm not clear, if you've had it for a year, whether you need to download, or you are just following the email?
This page with the icon to download now. Was it a page on adobe.com ?

How do I restore email and drafts from Apple Mail in Time Machine after account was deleted.

My Apple Mail email account was deleted by a support person and I lost several hundred emails and close to 1100 drafts that I desperately need. I have been using an external drive for backing up in Time Machine.
I do not know how to get my emails and drafts out of Time Machine and onto my Apple drive.
Any help would be appreciated HUGELY!

Command-R to the rescue.
Just hold down Command-R during startup and Lion Recovery springs into action. It lets you choose from common utilities: You can run Disk Utility to check or repair your hard drive, erase your hard drive and reinstall a fresh copy of Lion, or restore your Mac from a Time Machine backup. You can even use Safari to get help from Apple Support online. And if Lion Recovery encounters problems, it will automatically connect to Apple over the Internet.
When boot into Recovery and select item 1, you will be given a choice of a point to recover from.

IOS mail deletes mails in osx

That's normal if you are using an IMAP type email service.

Mac Mail deleting mail older than 1 month old

Mac Mail is deleting mail, from my Inbox, after 1 month old. I can't find the settings for deletion or archiving. I have not selected archiving either. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello Steve:
I think you misunderstood my post. I was not talking about the delete trash setting in Apple's Mail application. Many (most?) E-mail providers have settings in their applications to automatically delete mail. This has nothing to do with Apple's mail application. I know nothing about Mobile Me or Mac mail, but what I was suggesting was that those might have a setting someplace.
Apple's mail application did not, on its own, to delete mail. There is no setting in that application that I am aware of that would cause that to happen.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Also
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

Junk E-mail program is still allowing juck into inbox

Tjhunderbird is not removing junk e-mails after I have set it up.What do I do?
Thanks,

Keep marking the messages as Junk to hopefully train the junk filter what you expect. It is not a prefect science. One mans junk is another mans treasure even in email.

How can I delete an email with a huge video/movie attachment. It is jamming my email and won't delete.

I received an email with a huge attachment of a short (30 sec) movie. I can't delete it and it seems to have jammed that email address. When I try to delete other messages they keep reappearing even after emptying the "trash". What can I do to delete this huge email? I have shut down the iPod Touch (OS 4.2.1) and restarted but that didn't help. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have already read and deleted the email from the same account on my laptop. And the message is still on the iPod. I gave up on trying to delete the message, mainly because it is such a huge file that the iPod would shut down each time before the task could be completed. By giving up on deleting the message, and turning the iPod off overnight, the everything seems to have settled down and all other emails are coming in and able to be deleted, forwarded, etc. So my one option is to just leave that message on the iPod and ignore it even tho it is using a lot of megs of storage.
Another thought I had was deleting that email address from the iPod and adding it back in later. Does anyone know if simply deleting the email address would get rid of all the messages for that address? I'm reluctant to try it just yet, but welcome any suggestions on that approach.

IMAP email setup problem. Deleted items are still in my Inbox

I've already contacted my e-mail provider (123-Reg) and they are adamant this is an Apple problem, hence the question to you helpful souls
If I delete emails using my iPhone or my iPad, the email correctly disappears from my Inbox and goes into my Trash folder when viewed using the Webmail.
However, when I delete them from my Mac (Mavericks), the emails move into the Trash folder correctly when viewed on the Mac, but on Webmail, they not only go into the Trash folder, but also remain in the Inbox, but with a strikethrough.
Any ideas?

From the Mail menu bar, select
Mail ▹ Preferences... ▹ Accounts
Select one of your IMAP accounts in the list on the left, then open the Mailbox Behaviors tab, Uncheck the box marked
Store deleted messages on the server
Do the same in your other IMAP accounts. Save the changes when prompted.

How do I give a custom tag to an email and how do I then see it on the inbox display

If this is not possible, how can I reassign the tag colors (which do display where I want them) to give them my own meaning?

OK, those are Microsoft Word files. If you need to actually 'sign' them, you can scan your signature (or get a friend to do it for you) and insert it where it needs to be signed.
You may want to ask whomever is sending you the documents to save them in PDF format - that will make the document simpler to sign and won't be 'changed' because of font conflicts, etc.

HT3376 I have a Yahoo plus account. When I set up the mail account the Bulk Mail (Trash), Deleted Messages,Draft,Drafts,Junk, and Sent Folders all appear on my iPhone. Is there a way to prevent this?

I have a Yahoo Account. When I set up the mail account the Bulk Mail, Deleted Messages, Draft, Drafts, Junk, Sent, and Sent Messages appear on all of my iPhones, my PC, my Macbook and any other wifi product that receives mail. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of these duplicate mailbox folders??
Thanks

I just called apple care to even know how to respond to this answer. I am very old and this was my first post ever. I appreciate you taking the time to give me an answer. I also ask them how to delete this account because every time I log in it wants me to change my password and I have run out of passwords. I don't even know what it means when it ask me the community I want to be in.
The only thing I know about syncing is syncing my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. I apologize that I am so technically stupid. Does mail have syncing???
Thank you even if I never figure out how to get back to this site again.
