Emails being deleted from my inbox

My iphone mailbox is randomly being deleted from my iphone.  My yahoo account on my pc is not affected but I think the deletion may happen when I access my yahoo account on my pc (thankfully its not being deleted here!). I view my yahoo account on my pc via outlook. Can anyone help?

Your PC is set up to access your e-mail using POP3 instead of IMAP. POP3 deletes messages from the server after downloading them by default. Change the e-mail client on your PC to IMAP instead of POP3.
This is not a problem with the phone.

  • Emails being deleted from my inbox to my deleted box

    Emails from my Inbox are automatically moved to my Deleted box, after so many hours in my Inbox. How do I stop this happening please?

    What was mentioned in the Activity manager?
    Is it only read emails being moved to deleted folder or unread ones as well?
    Is there a definate time pattern between the deleting? This should show up in Activity Manager.
    Does this occur if you download mail and then go into 'offline' mode to read emails?
    Test by using 'offline' mode - remain in offline mode for longer than it usually takes for the auto move to deleted folder.
    Need to ascertain whether Thunderbird is doing this or whether it is occuring on the server and TB is just coping the server.
    Use webmail to check that those messages are not being moved on the server and Thunderbird is just synching with server and copying what is there.
    check there are no filters or options in webmail account to filter/delete etc emails in Inbox.

  • Issue with emails being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders

    Hi, I am experiencing an issue where emails are being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders when the weekly Sunday night purge of the Yahoo Trash folder is carried out by Yahoo. These are mails that have been moved from my inbox via the iphone mail app.
    I have a similar problem with Outlook 2010 on my laptop but not with Outlook 2003 on my desktop.
    When I move the emails from my inbox I have noticed that using Outlook 2003, the moved email is left in my inbox in "strikethrough" mode whereas on Outlook 2010 it is deleted from my inbox. I subsequently purge the marked email from my inbox in 2003.
    I am able to see and access the emails in the folder I have moved them to until after midnight on Sunday when they dissappear. The emails moved via 2003 are ok and not lost.
    Funnily enough when using an earlier version of the iphone mail app I remember that I could see emails in "strikethrough" mode in Outlook 2003 when they had been moved via the iPhone mail app but you don't see that now.
    It feels like some sort of pointer issue to me ...... any ideas on how to stop this happening?.

    This is now fixed !!!! I am not sure how though :-((
    I reported the problem to Yahoo and in the process of them investigating the issue my sub-folders suddenly became invisible via my IMAP connection and then also were invisible on-line following a log out and a log in. After my initial panic, I contacted Yahoo who were able to restore my complete account. Since then, the problem has gone away.
    I have been testing this for two weeks and all is working perfectly from whatever device I use to connect to my mail (IMAP or via my browser).
    Phew!

  • Email being deleted from server

    When I delete a message from the inbox on my iphone it gets removed from the mail server (I use Yahoo bizmail). So, If I delete a message from my iphone before checking the mail on my mac I don't get the mail on the mac.
    I've tried deleteing and restoring the mail account on the iPhone. I tried an IMAP account on the iPhone. I have DELETE MAiL set to NEVER in mail settings. I restored the software on the iPhone and started new. None of that worked.
    Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Im kind of having a different email problem. Not all emails load to my phone and when I view and delete them, my hotmail account doesnt even realize Ive logged in. Everything stays as though I havent been there and new emails pile up.

  • My emails are deleted from the inbox mailbox without my comand, and they dissappear

    My messages dissapear from the inbox of my ipad, without my asking to delet them. Why?

    This is also happening to me on my iPhone 4 (along with a very frustrating static-y headphone problem).
    I'll see the e-mail come in, I can read the preview text before opening it but when I touch it to open, another e-mail opens and the one I'm trying to read has disappeared. Nowhere to be found, not even in the deleted files folder.
    I don't have any other devices connected/synced that would be deleting it nor do I have the 200 max emails in the inbox as Robato suggested. even if I did, based upon Robato's information, the new e-mail would not be disappearing...
    I need some help for sure....

  • Why is all of my email being deleted from the server?

    Hi Everyone!
    I am using an iPad Air 2, iOS version 8.1.2 (still have to perform the current update).  When I download email from my ISP, Comcast, it gets deleted from their server.  This never happened with my 2nd Generation iPad.
    I go to settings>Mail>accounts>advanced - and under the Incoming settings, I don't have an option for "delete from server"  where I am supposed to select "never".  Instead, it has "IMAP Path Prefix / "
    How do I fix this so my email stays on the server?   I like to check my email using my ipad and iphone, but I prefer saving it on my desktop PC but I can't do this because when my email is downloaded into the ipad, it gets deleted from Comcast's servers.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you!
    Vita

    Actually, it had to do with Comcast, not the iPad. The default for Comcast is IMAP, and that is based on the information they have available when the account goes into verification. It verifies an IMAP account, and since you have not migrated to the IMAP account, you were having problems. It isn't something anyone can fix, except you. It would not ask you at the beginning if you wanted IMAP or POP, it has to do with the mail provider's verification settings, which is a Comcast issue, but because they are providing IMAP now, it defaults to that. If you are still using POP, you have to force the mail app to get there, which is what I provided you the instructions for. Apple is not going to fix anything, because there is nothing for them to fix.
    Either way, you got it fixed and that is all it takes. As a Comcast customer, I was aware of this, since I had migrated to IMAP already.

  • Why won't the email I delete from the inbox delete from Verizon server as advanced setting says it will?

    Why doesn't the "remove from server when deleted from I.nbox" not do it on my Verizon server?

    This will only occur if your mail server is an IMAP server. What do you have?

  • Business emails in Inbox deleted on Iphone also delete from Outlook Inbox on Computer

    There are numerous discussions regarding the deletion of emails from Outlook on the computer when they are deleted from the iphone, mine being a 4s.  I have two email accounts set up on my iphone.  One setup in Other for my personal domain email account and the other is setup through Exchange for my business email that interacts with my Server.  True there is an Advanced setting for my personal email account but there is not an Advanced setting for my business email.  I have tried setting the Synch setting for my business email account on the iphone to 2 weeks.  Unfortunately the Push setting defaults to the Inbox and you cannot uncheck Inbox on the iphone.
    There is no setting for my business email to tell it not to delete from the iphone.  I have actually had my iphone next to me deleted the email from my business Inbox on my iphone and watched it also delete from my Inbox in Outlook on the computer.
    What do we do to stop business emails from being deleted in the Outlook Inbox when deleting them from the iphone?  Please advise of the correct settings and how to get to it when there is a business email set up on the iphone that is on an Exchange Server that when the email in the inbox on the iphone is deleted that it doesn't delete from the Inbox in Outlook on the computer.
    Thanks.

    It is possible with a Blackberry due to RIM's dedicated email delivery service. The Blackberry's email client does not communicate direct with the Exchange Server with an Exchange account or direct with the incoming mail server with any email account. 
    It is not possible with an email client that communicates direct with the Exchange Server such as with the iPhone's email client, with the Android email client, and with the Windows mobile email client. This is possible with the Blackberry's email client and dedicated email delivery service only which is going out of business unless RIM ends up being purchased by another company.

  • How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

    How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

    Have you seen this?
    Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
    A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
    If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

  • My deleted emails on iPhone 4s are not being deleted from server

    I'm facing a problem with my iPhone 4s when deleting emails. Unfortunately, they are not being deleted from the server. I tried setting the account in pop and imap with settings to delete from server and trash ticked. Still they keep on appearing in Outlook which is a double work to do. Please advise.

    I'm no expert by far, but have had issues with this before.
    IMAP should allow your iPhone to remove messages from the server.
    But have you made sure both the iPhone and Outlook are connecting via IMAP?
    If your iPhone does remove the messages from the server, but your computer is using POP, then the computer may download the email before it is removed form the server by your iPhone.
    This was my issue, that my computer had already downloaded the message, and POP does not check later if it is deleted.
    If you delete a message from Outlook does it disappear on the iPhone?
    Alternativly you may need to check the email server settings.
    Who is your email provider?
    They may be able to check if IMAP allows you to remove emails.
