Email deletes from desktop when deleted from iphone

I was using a comcast.net email address and recently created a gmail account, and have setup the comcast.net address to forward to it. I also have a mobileme account, but don't use it. Mainly I have it so that I can see the same calendars and contacts on an iMac and a Macbook Pro and my iphone. I've also forwarded that address to the gmail account.
Everything worked great until I started using the gmail account with other emails forwarded to it. Now when I delete an email from my iphone, it disappears from my downloaded email (Apple Mail on the iMac). At the same time, it disappears from the gmail inbox. What the heck? I've even tried enabling POP for gmail, but those setting don't seem to make a difference, and the settings always default back to IMAP anyway.
I now cannot delete any email from my phone that I need to keep on my desktop. I'm a freelancer and need my emails... ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm surprised that you are considering using POP when IMAP is available. POP is an old protocol designed when people only accessed their mail with one client. It also doesn't allow you to create and sync folders which is another drawback.
If you want to clear the Inbox on your iPhone, why not create a folder called "Read" or something in your GMail account and then move e-mails to that on your iPhone once you have opened them. They will then still be available on any other clients that access the mailbox or by using the GMail web interface.

Emailed photos from iPhone using ios7 being formatted to bmp. How can I change to jpg?

I just solved this issue! Here's the solution in case anyone else is experiencing the same problem: I had him link his phone number to his Apple ID by adding his his phone number to his contact in his Contacts List. After that, messages sent to his phone number are blue.
I'm guessing his phone number was disconnected from his Apple ID when he somehow toggled off iMessage.

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 old email addresses from iPhone memory

I recently changed email addresses. When I want to send a text or email, the auto complete function in my iPhone brings up my old email address. How do I delete the old email address?

The iPhone caches contact lists and data for all the people it has ever e-mailed, received e-mail from, or seen as a contact. There is no way to clear that unfortunately. You could always try going to settings > general > reset > reset all settings, but I don't think that it will clear this.
In order to completely wipe my previously e-mailed list, I had to restore my phone.

Changing outgoing email address from iphone

I currently have my MobileMe account set up on my iphone, and it is using my MobileMe ID as my email address <Edited by Host>. However I would like to set it up with my alias<Edited by Host>. Is there a way to change this setting on the phone? I know I can change the outgoing email address from mail on my computer, but I don't see that function on my iphone.
Thanks

You can set up MobileMe to use any email address as a 'push' email on the iPhone. The first thing you need to do is set your non-MobileMe (.Mac) email address for auto-forward to your MobileMe (.Mac) account.
When you create the email account, make sure you set it up as Other (not as a .Mac or MobileMe account.) Then select IMAP as the type of account. Enter the name and auto-forwarded email address. (This is the email address that will show as the "From" email, even though you're using your MobileMe account.)
For your mail server settings, use your MobileMe settings:
* Incoming settings:
o Host Name: mail.mac.com
o User Name: MobileMe user name
o Password: MobileMe password
* Outgoing Settings:
o Host Name: smtp.mac.com
o User Name: MobileMe user name
o Password: MobileMe password
* Advanced:
o Use SSL - On
o Authentication - Password
o Server Port - 587
Now you're able to receive 'push' email from your non-MobileMe account, and reply without using the @me.com address. (You can use those same settings in the Mail App as well.)

Email sent from iPhone appears in Sent Items days later

On our Mac clients we use Entourage 2008 SP2 which connects to Exchange 2003 SP2 running on Window Server 2003.
So we're very pleased our iPhone 3Gs with 3.1.1 work as well as they do with ActiveSync email to Exchange. (Well done Apple.)
However, we have noticed that some emails sent from the iPhone appear in Entourage's (and OWA's) Sent Items folder days later than when the message was sent.
Also, the Subject is BLANK.
This is not good as we are contemplating moving from BlackBerry to iPhone for our client servicing teams who need to have an accurate record on on-the-hoof communications.
Any ideas?
Regards
C.

IPhone OS 3.0 did not identify itself properly to Exchange 2007 on any iPhone. With iPhone OS 3.1, all iPhones identify themselves properly to the server, essentially fixing a glitch in the previous operating system. However, now iPhone and iPhone 3G users that upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1 won't be able to login to Exchange 2007 servers that require hardware encryption. The new iPhone 3GS, you won't notice any change. Apple's newest phone is equipped with hardware encryption, so it will meet the requirements of the Exchange server when identifying itself. If you've already upgraded your phones to iPhone OS 3.1 on an iPhone or iPhone 3G and connect to an Exchange 2007 server, you have to turn off the hardware encryption requirement for those devices. So, if you decide you have to have hardware encryption, then you'll need to upgrade all phones to 3gs.

Cant email photos from iPhone 3G

This is a fairly recent problem for me but I am unable to email photos from my iPhone (either photo's synced from iPhoto or those taken on phone itself). Its a 3G phone and is running firmware 2.1. I'm not able to upload photos using the photo uploader feature in the Facebook app either.
After doing some research and some tests, I noticed that I can accomplish these tasks if I'm connected to a WiFi network or if I'm using EDGE (ie, 3G turned off) but NOT when I'm on the 3G netowrk. The error I'm getting is something about the message could not be sent and it ends up in my outbox. I have two email accounts set up on the phone, one a Yahoo account, the other a corporate email account. The same error occurs using either account.
I cant think of anything I've done to change the phone recently other than add a couple of seemingly unrelated Apps from the App Store (e.g., iTV, Grocery IQ, Pandora).
Any thoughts?

Had a guy at the Genius Bar at the local Apple store look at the phone yesterday. He swapped SIM cards and was able to send photos so it would seem that its a SIM card issue. He mentioned that they're starting to see odd problems here and there related to the 3G network which coincidentally or no was apparently fully rolled out recently here in So Cal. So now I need to go to an AT&T store to get a new card...hopefully that will do the trick.

Vanishing email accounts from iPhone mailbox?

My iPhone randomly, that is, I didn't do ask it to anything, removed two email accounts from the my mail box. When I go to settings it says they are still there, but I've got no way of accessing them and through mail box because they're not there! Why??

If you are talking about syncing the account setup info, then yes. In iTunes, in the iPhone options there is the ability to sync mail accounts. This will auto-setup these accounts on the phone.
If you are talking about syncing the actual mail messages, no.

Reading emails sent from iPhones on Nokia N8 Belle

My phone works well and receives "normal E mails" and attachements.
However E mails sent from iPhones display the header and any attachements, photos or security/copyright message.
My complaint is that the text of the message is missing. Once downloaded there is no option to refresh
or download again. I do not remove messages from the server with the mobiles only with the PC.
When message is fetched by a PC the text is there. It also arrives on my N900.
I could not find mention of this in the discussions.. Thanks in anticipation.. Nokpiks

@Murf1
If you don't want to install what is offered, you can go to SW updates > tap on three horizontal line icon at bottom right of screen > Settings > Auto-check for updates = OFF
You also need to temporarily turn off mobile data and restart to remove the notification.

How to remove previously used email addresses from iphone?

After having his email account hacked, a friend gave me his new email address.
I have updated his contact information, BUT
everytime I write an email, or a text or a message, the old email address keeps coming up
as the first choice of my iPhone and iPad.
How do I remove the previous email address from my iPhone or iPad?
Regards

The ONLY way, currently, to remove this data from an iOS device is to restore the device as "new" in iTunes, NOT from backup. This will, of course, erase all data on the device, including this contact data. You either do that, or you live with it.

Custom "FROM" address on email sent from iPhone

We need to insure that all email sent from an iPhone 6 uses a particular company FROM address. That address will not be set up in an email account on the phone, and I'm not able to see any obvious way to configure what we require.
Is this available?
Thanks.

Can you elaborate a little?
Are you speaking of an email signature? Or something like a custom address?

Choosing Alias for email send from iPhone

Hi,
how can I choose an Alias for emails send from the iPhone, like I do in Mail on my Mac?

If you are using MobileMe the iPhone does not support sending emails from alias's.

Emails sent from iPhone not being received

I've noticed this happening over the past week or so... Anytime I initiate a new email thread from my Gmail account on my iPhone, the recipient isn't getting it. If I go into Gmail via the web I'll see the email in my Sent Items, but it never arrives. In one instance, I got a bounceback message from the recipient's server, but in the others I haven't gotten anything back. This has happened to at least 5 different email addresses, all with different providers, that I've tried to send to, and needless to say I am sure that all of these addresses are indeed valid recipients.
I'm already running iPhone OS 3.1...

If you see it in the gmail sent box on the web, then it was sent.
It sounds like something you need to talk with google about.
