Email messages get deleted !

Hi there,
I have set up an email account on my N900. It is a POP3 account. I made sure "leave messages on server" is ticked.
I am able to receive and see the emails on the N900 and if I log onto the webmail account on the internet, I can see that they are still there. So that works fine.
However, if I delete an email on the N900, the same message also disappears a short time later on the actual server.
I thought that they would stay there. Have I done something wrong in the settings or is this just the way it works ?
Cheers
Fred

Go into settings and the 'mail and contacts' tab, then explore that account set up (accounts set up differently so I can't give specific directions) and see if you see an option to 'delete off server when deleted off device'
You may also need to access the mail account on the web and see if you have to give it permission to allow a mobile device to control it (I had to go into hotmail adn tell it that it was okay if the mobile device controlled the server)
Ultimately what you need is for your iPad to delete the messages off the mail server so they go away for good.

  • Email messages get auto selected as I scroll

    I seem to have accidently turned on some setting, as a result of which when i scroll through the message/email list, all messages get selected. Options available at this point are - Mark Messages Opened; Mark Messages UnOpened; or Delete Selected messages.
    I am unable to open any single message because of the auto selection. Can someone please help with how to turn off this setting?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You likely have your SHIFT key depressed, which when depressed will select consecutive messages.
    Click the Escape (right of the trackball) key to unselect any messages.
    And make sure the Shift key is not pressed, and scroll again.
    Any luck?
    If still the same, do this -- With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.

  • Undelivered JMS messages get deleted on startup. Why?

              WebLogic 6.1 (SP2), NT4 (SP6), native IO enabled.
              Here's what happens:
              1. A JMS client posts a number of messages (say 8000) to a Weblogic JMS queue backed
              up by a database store.
              2. The JMS consumer (i.e. Message driven bean's onMessage()) is slow - it has 5 seconds
              of processing to do for each message.
              3.The JMS monitoring screens show 100 messages have been processed - this is ok;
              the client can post much faster than the server can consume. This would imply 7900
              messages undelivered.
              4. We do a controlled shutdown of the server.
              5. A select count(*) from JMS_JMSStore reveals all 8000 messages have been persisted.
              6. We start up the server. The JMS recovery message in weblogic.log indicates that
              a scan of 8000 records has been made.
              7. I would now expect 7900 undelivered messages to be passed to the mdb's onMessage()
              method (remember before shutdown, 100 messages were processed by onMessage()).
              8. This doesn't happen; onMessage() gets nothing, and a select count(*) from JMS_JMSStore
              reveals zero records! Why have these messages been deleted?
              Presumably on startup, the JMS recovery tries to ensure that the JMS store only holds
              messages that have yet to be delivered. But in this case it's deleteing everything.
              Note that there are no error messages or stack traces to report.
              Any ideas, anyone?
              simon.
              

    It has to be durable, or there wouldn't be anything in the store.
              What happens if you undeploy and redeploy the MDB (instead of shutting
              down)? Do your messages have a time-to-live? Your configuration has not
              changed? Try it without the MDB. That is just a program that creates
              durable subscriber. Have it receive 100
              messages. Shutdown the server and restart, then restart the durable
              subscriber program. This would prove it is JMS or if the MDB container is
              doing something ugly like an unsubscribe.

    Hi,
    I think I had something similar once. The thing I did then was deleted the task and created a new one, and let SAP generate the container elements of the task from the method. Then I inserted and the task in the workflow and did the binding and it worked.
    So maybe an option to try.

  • Why are my messages getting deleted?

    My older text messages from one contact keep getting deleted. How do I stop this and why is it happening?
    I know for a fact there are many messages before where the conversation appears to begin on my phone.

    If your posts are being deleted, it is because they are in violation of the Terms of Use (https://discussions.apple.com/___sbsstatic___/apple/tutorial/tou.html), which you agreed to when you signed up here, even if you didn't take the time to read them.

  • Can't delete email messages - get dreaded multicolor revolving circle and have to force quit

    Hi -
    Since installing Lion, there are two messages in my Mail inbox that I cannot read or delete. Whenever I try by putting the cursor on either one of them, I get the multicolor revolving circle symbol. I then can't access anything in Mail or stop the revolving circle. I have to go to Force Quit to end the Mail application and start over. Then must be very careful not to highlight one of those messages or the same thing happens over and over again. I suspect these two are some kind of spam or virus mail because I don't recognize the sender or the bit of the message that shows up in the inbox.
    Please help - this is quite annoying. I will be most appreciative of any ideas.

    Hold the phone. This, apparently, may be a Bell Sympatico server issue after all. I've tried to get in contact with their support people and the message says that they've been having problems. Also, my wife, who only uses .mac mail recieved the same email (that keeps popping up in my inbox) and has had no issues. I retrieved my mail using my newer imac as well and the same problem occured there. Hence, it is probably not an app issue, but a server issue.
    Thanks all for your help. Hopefully I can resolve this with Sympatico.

  • Email messages getting stuck in Outbox

    I have regular problems with my sent emails getting stuck in my Outbox when using verizon.net mail.   The problem only occurs with verizon.net and only on my tablet (Nexus 7), not on my PC.   Both are on same wireless network so I don't think it is due to interruption in connection.   Is there some adjustment I need to make?

    Gmail is a deliberately broken implementation of IMAP that often causes problems with Mail. The problem seems to have gotten worse in Mavericks. Google has no incentive to make Gmail work well with any mail client, because the company makes money by delivering targeted ads via the Web. The Gmail servers analyze your messages to gather information about you and your contacts that Google can then sell to marketers, or to anyone who will pay for it. You agreed to those terms when you registered a Gmail address. The marketers—not Gmail users—are Google's customers and the ones it aims to please.
    I suggest either not to use Gmail at all, or to access it through the website as Google intends. You might get better results with another email client. I don't recommend any one in particular.

  • N97 messages get deleted on phone shut down

    Hi!
    I am having a problem with messages stored on the Mass Memory of my Nokia N97. Each time I switch the phone off or change the memory in use, all the messages stored on my mass memory - inbox, drafts, sent, and email - are deleted. Each time, I have to set-up my yahoo email account all over again. However, this does not happen to the messages on the Phone Memory. My requests are these:
    1. Does anyone know how to ensure that each time I switch the phone off, my messages will still be intact?
    2. How can I retrieve all the messages I had lost from the Mass Memory.
    Thanks!

    This is what is backed up
    iTunes will back up the following information
    Contacts* and Contact Favorites (regularly sync contacts to a computer or cloud service such as iCloud to back them up).
    App Store Application data including in-app purchases (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).
    Application settings, preferences, and data, including documents.
    Autofill for webpages.
    CalDAV and subscribed calendar accounts.
    Calendar accounts.
    Calendar events.
    Call history.
    Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
    Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
    Game Center account.
    Home screen arrangement.
    In-app purchases.
    Keychain (this includes email account passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and passwords you enter into websites and some other applications. If you encrypt the backup with iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the keychain information to the new device. With an unencrypted backup, you can restore the keychain only to the same iOS device. If you are restoring to a new device with an unencrypted backup, you will need to enter these passwords again.)
    List of External Sync Sources (MobileMe, Exchange ActiveSync).
    Location service preferences for apps and websites you have allowed to use your location.
    Mail accounts (mail messages are not backed up).
    Installed Profiles. When restoring a backup to a different device, installed configuration profiles are not restored (such as accounts, restrictions, or anything which can be specified through an installed profile.) Any accounts or settings that are not associated with an installed profile will still be restored.
    Map bookmarks, recent searches, and the current location displayed in Maps.
    Microsoft Exchange account configurations.
    Network settings (saved Wi-Fi hotspots, VPN settings, network preferences).
    Nike + iPod saved workouts and settings.

    Offline web application cache/database.
    Paired Bluetooth devices (which can only be used if restored to the same phone that did the backup).
    Safari bookmarks, cookies, history, offline data, and currently open pages.
    Saved suggestion corrections (these are saved automatically as you reject suggested corrections).
    Messages (iMessage and carrier SMS or MMS pictures and videos).
    Trusted hosts that have certificates that cannot be verified.
    Voice memos.
    Voicemail token. (This is not the voicemail password, but is used for validation when connecting. This is only restored to a phone with the same phone number on the SIM card).
    Wallpapers.
    Web clips.
    YouTube bookmarks and history.
    * Your contacts are part of the backup to preserve recent calls and favorites lists. Back up your contacts to a supported personal information manager (PIM), iCloud, or another cloud-based service to avoid any potential contact data loss.
    You will see that contacts are backed up

  • Mail trying to download an email message already deleted from the server

    And it won't download anything else. How do I get the program to recognize that this message has already been deleted?

    Try the following.
    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded.
    Delete the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded file and empty the Trash.
    Launch Mail and if successful, any previously downloaded messages that remain on the server will be downloaded again along with any new messages available at the server that have not been downloaded.

  • Do my messages get deleted when updating firmware?

    Subject asks it all ^_^

    Nothing should be deleted when updating firmware. However, standard practice when updating ANY computer's OS is to do a complete backup first. With the iphone, that means either performing a sync(first part of the sync process is a backup), or right clicking the phone in the device pane & selecting backup. That way, should anything go wrong, you have a current backup to restore from.

    I find that every couple of days, my received Email messages get deleted automatically.  There are some that I want saved but I can't seem to find any settings to do this.  I don't want Emails deleted unless I delete them.  Is there a way to do this?

    Yes.  This tutorial describes how to go about it: #9a - Archiving an iPhoto 7(08)/8(09)/9(11) Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date. For future books I suggest you start out with a new library and copy the needed photos to it from your current library with iPhoto Library Manager .
