Every email ends up in Gmail inbox, too?

Since my home email is a cox.net account, and i have run into the same problem that many people here have with sending emails (only way i got it to work outside my home wifi was the cwmx.com route via EDGE)... i decided to try the route suggested in another post where i setup a gmail account and use those settings as my smtp....
After much trial and error, i was able to send emails either via wifi or EDGE from my cox.net account... Problem is, every email i send – no matter who i send it to – i get a duplicate copy in my gmail inbox on my iphone.
Is there a setting somewhere either on gmail's site or on the iphone that i am missing here? I don't really plan to use the gmail account, but i don't want hundreds of emails stacking up in its inbox, either.
Thanks for any suggestions!

I believe he is talking about the settings in the iPhone, not the Gmail settings.
Go to your iPhone home page. Tap the settings icon. In the settings page, tap the mail icon.
Flick down the page until you see the "Always CC Myself" option and make sure it's off.
For what it's worth, mine is off and everytime I send an email from my phone it ends up in my phone's inbox. I posted it as a bug a few minutes ago.

  • Why can't TB just show each and every email received seperately in the inbox?

    I keep on missing new messages that are received. In addition they are a total nuisance. Surely if they're necessary in certain applications then users should be able to choose whether they want the feature or not?

    I'm talking about emails received in the inbox.
    Before threads every email received was displayed in bold in the inbox irrespective of whether it was the 20th from the same person or not. One could see clearly that there was an unread email. With the thread function it isn't easy to see whether one has received another email from the same person any more.

  • WebOS 1.20 email no longer fetches gmail inbox

    I've owned the pre since day 1 (6-6-09) and gmail IMAP (as items arrive) has worked flawless... UNTILL 1.20 update.  Since this update, email no longer checks for new messages in the inbox.  This is epic.  
    Things I've tried to solve this myself:
    - Removed account, re-added.  Nothing
    - Changed time check intervals from As items arrive to 15 mins.  Still doesn't check
    - Rebooted, Shutdown.  still no regular checks.  I do get notified of new emails on reboot, just never again.
    - Removed account, then shutdown, booted and added again.  Still doesn't check.
    Even when going to the email app and manually refreshing, new messages don't come in.  Some-times after the 3rd or 4th refresh I'll get my new emails (& other times I don't.)  
    Is my only option downgrade because it's not even secure w/ the email exploits that exist in the older release. 
    FYI, i'm connect (and been connected) via WIFI.  So sprint isn't at fault.

  • I want every email I send through gmail to be written in Verdana font, but NOT to view all pages in that font.

    Every time myself or my colleague sends an email through our google apps account we have to change the font to verdana. we can't seem to find ANY way (neither in the gmail settings nor in the firefox settings) to change it so that all of our outgoing messages are written in Verdana.
    I went to firefox preferences and found the font settings and changed them all to verdana and UN-checked "allow pages to select their own fonts", however, then ALL fonts were changed to verdana, including our signature at the bottom of each email (which we don't want in verdana) and also all of the gmail pages appear in verdana as well. We just want our outgoing messages (except fro the signature at the bottom) to be in Verdana, and I can't figure out how to do it.
    Also, when in the Firefox Preferences / Content / Fonts & Colors, I'm not really sure what each part means. For example, what does "default font" refer to??? Visualization of web pages will be in that font? or writing that I myself do? Also, then once entering into Advanced, I'm not sure what each scroll-down menu refers to: Proportional, Serif, Sans-serif, and Monospace?? Which one of those should I make Verdana? And, what should the rest be if I just want to "normal" (default?) settings.
    Please help. Thank you very much.

    >>So I guess even the computer geniuses cant work out

    Guess as you wish but you are wrong. Centering a site is
    reasonably
    simple... if you are willing to deal with code. There is no
    "Center Site"
    button. Design view is OK but extremely limited. If you are
    willing to
    settle for those limitations, and obviously you are not, you
    will be fine.
    Clearly this approach is not acceptable so you have to move
    to the next
    level -> An understanding of HTML & CSS and most
    importantly, how they
    interact. I could give you the code but your next question
    would be, "Where
    do I put it?".
    >>I thought you guys would be up for a challenge.
    We are. Are you?
    >>Or will I have to start from scratch again?
    That is the only way but only if you can figure out how your
    code got so
    badly mangled. Otherwise, you are likely to arrive at the
    same result.
    Please trust me when I say if you had build that entire page
    from DW's
    design view and never touched the code it is impossible for
    the page code to
    be what it is. If the page was actually build in DW design
    view someone
    subsequently took a hatchet to the code DW produces.

  • When trying to send photo or web link my email ends up in gmail outbox and I have to go into mail app open outbox and email and press send again and it will send without any trouble

    Hello
    I would be very grateful for any help with this problem. It is really annoying as I think the email has gone only finding it after days in the outbox. It sends fine from the outbox when I open mail and resend. It also works fine if I initiate email in the mail app but not when using link in photos or safari.

    Taking the accounts offline was just the easiest way to reproduce the issue. I discovered the issue when a serverside configuration was preventing me from making a connection to the SMTP server, but the effect was the same -
    I attempted to send multiple emails
    The connection error prevented them from being sent so they were placed in the Outbox mailbox
    I changed a configuration setting thinking it would fix the issue
    Selected all messages in Outbox
    Right-clicked and selected "Send"
    Confirmed "Send"
    Messages were removed from Outbox but not delivered and I cannot find where or if they were moved
    I have been able to reproduce this by both taking the accont offline and misconfiguring my smtp settings. I did not anticipate the possibility that sending emails would be a destructive act.

  • Mutt/Offlineimap Sent mail is showing up in Gmail Inbox

    Hi,
    I am just starting my journey with mutt and quite like the interface thus far but I am having trouble with sent emails showing up in my Gmail inbox.  It is a little annoying to always have my sent emails appear as unread in my inbox.  In my search for a solution I have found that this behavior sometimes occurs if you have Gmail filters that are set to never send to spam, I checked and do not have any such filters.  This could also happen if I had $record set, but I have specifically unset record.  My muttrc and offlineimaprc are as follows (I used several tutorial sites to help create these) (I have hashed out some personal details):

    I use msmtp to send the emails (and they do send) but as far as I know that program should have nothing to do with my folder labeling.
    What happens exactly:  When in mutt, I press 'm' and compose an email and send with 'y'.  Oddly enough, the email appears in my gmail inbox (the webmail) even before I sync mutt with offlineimap (I don't automatically sync).  Once I sync, I see the email in both my sent mail and inbox.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated

    You have unset the record variable.

  • Mail Problem - copying every email I send to inbox

    I am using mail to access and send mail through my gmail account.  For some reason, the other day, I started seeing copies of every email I replied to showing up in my inbox. Actually, it's my "All Mail" box because I've never found an "Inbox" on the Mac Mail program.  Anyone know how to fix this?
    Before anyone asks: I'm not CCing myself.  I already checked.  When I click "Reply" the cc and bcc lines are blank.  However, when I send the message I get a copy of it about 2 minutes later.
    Sure could use some help!
    Nick

    Google Mail's 'All Mail' box includes sent mail so that's correct.
    When using Mac mail you have access to the google mail boxes but they are below the Mail apps Mailboxes incl Inbox, Sent, Trash, Junk and drafts if you have any.
    Maybe you just need to reset the mail app in Mail Preferences or I believe you can set up Mac Mail through Google too.
    Best.

  • GMAIL IMAP: Mail app on iPhone, random old emails showing as new in inbox.

    Hi all,
    I've tried to get an answer to this elsewhere, hopefully someone here can shed some light on my problem.
    I just switched both my GMAIL accounts from POP to IMAP: using the web interface, everything's fine; using the Mail app on my desktop, everything's fine; however, using the Mail app on my iPhone, one of the accounts is fine, but the other account only show a random smattering of email from between 2005 and 2007 as the "newest" emails. Now, new emails come in fine and dandy but as soon as there are fewer than 25, WHAM!, these random group starts showing up in the inbox. It's annoying as all get out. I've tried deleting the account from my iPhone and setting it up from scratch, to no avail. If both accounts were acting this way I'd chalk it up to either an error on my end, or some tick between GMAIL and my phone but these seem not to be the case. So, how about it? Any insight out there?
    thanks,
    christian

    Yes that is normal. The sync between your gmail inbox and the all mail folder in gmail is not immediate, so you will have an emal that will appear as unread in the all mail folder, yet you did read it already in the gmail inbox. There is no way around this nagging issue at present.
    I cannot comment on the other point you raise as uses/behavior for sharing one's computer vary greatly. If you have privacy issues and still share your computer with others, you may want to create a guest user profile and have others use this guest user profile when using your computer. That way they will be able to use a browser, or create a document and so on and so forth, but will be prevented from seeing the data/files/folders and applications - the way you have set them up - you see when you are logged in.
    To create a guest account go to system preferences>accounts
    hope this helps

    "One of the benefits of Match, right?  Saving hard drive space."
    I would not use iTunes Match as a backup. There are too many bugs and I don't think that's what they intended it to be anyway. The main advantage of using it is to make your music available on OTHER devices, not to replace the music on your original computer.

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
    That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

  • I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    Yes I know what you mean about it cluttering the thread and for personal emails it is better without the signature. However this relates to sending business emails from an iPhone so I need the signature present on every email.
    I can't find anything in Settings so I was hoping someone may have some knowledge/information/experience regarding this problem.

  • Help -- Email no longer appears in Gmail inbox

    As of yesterday, messages no longer appear in my Gmail inbox on my HTC Incredible 2.  I can access new messages at gmail.com and using outlook on my home PC.  When I send myself a message, the phone buzzes and says I have new mail, but nothing appears in the inbox.  I can see sent mail (including the messages I sent to myself that do not appear in the inbox).  It's a 2-week old phone and I use few apps, so I have definitely not reached memory capacity.  Any suggestions?

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

  • The new tab page is showing Gmail inbox pages, meaning anyone can start a new tab and get access to my email. How do I stop this?

    When I open a new tab, within the pages brought up is my gmail inbox. This mean anyone can have access to my inbox without logging in, without my password. How do I restrict this access?

    If you log out of Gmail, then clicking the thumbnail should take you to a login page. If you don't log out, then anyone can access your email just by typing gmail.com in the URL bar. But you're right that the picture does create a temptation to click...
    You can set the new tab page back to blank if you prefer. However, please note that the page thumbnails are stored in the browser cache, so you also need to clear your cache to flush out existing thumbnails if you don't want anyone to be able to see them.
