Folders unrelated to mail displayed in iTouch mail application

When I connect to my work e-mail account in addition to seeing my normal e-mail folders I get everything that is in my work virtual drive where e-mails are stored. I mean everything, including expansion of all subdirectories. I have to wade through hundreds of files and folders to view my mail folders. Also, because it is looking at these hundreds of folders, it takes forever to 'get mail'.
1.) Is there any way to set up the iTouch mail so that I only see folders specific to the mail program, much like is displayed using any PC mail program?
2.) If not, is there any way to collapse the folders I do see so that I do not have to wade through the entire tree?

A bug report on this has been filed with Apple. Start your new message in Mail then use the Attach button to add attachments.

  • Search across multiple folders in the Mail application...

    Is it possible to search across multiple folders using the Mail application in Windows 10?  I can't seem to find that option.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Mapper99,
    If you mean the following search:
    You may click on the search icon on the top of the message list, then it will show out like the picture above, you could choose to search in the current folder, or you may choose All folders as listed.
    It is almost the same settings in Windows 8.1, you may follow this guide for the other options:

  • IPhone4 : How to create folders in the mail application

    In the email application i don't know if it is possible to create folders in order to file and keep emails

    If you have an IMAP account, then you can create them on the mail server and they will be on iphone.
    If you have a POP account, then you cannot.

  • I have Yahoo mail provider but just lost my folders in Mac Mail program. The folders were not "On my Mac" but on "Yahoo". How do I get them back again?

    I have Yahoo mail provider but just lost my folders in Mac Mail program. The folders were not "On my Mac" but on "Yahoo". How do I get them back again? I have reinstalled MacMail as everything had disappeared. The new install has given me everything except the Yahoo folders. When I looked one of the folders had reappeared, but now it has gone again. I am using Yosemite.
    Desperate to find those folders with so much data involved.

    Thanks for that babowa. If I add my Yahoo account it just goes straight to MacMail and says I already have an account. There seems to be no basic problem with mails going between Macmail and Yahoo. It is just the folders that have disappeared, while MacMail was out of action. I don't think those particular folders were ever on the Yahoo mail that I access through BT, they were just on the MacMail under "Yahoo" as opposed to "On my Mac". I am worried in case I lose what I already have if I press "Restore" from my back up. As you can see, I am not exactly good at this!

  • How do you get your Iphone to show sub folders in the mail program?

    Hallo
    I Have a lot of sub folders in the mail program, that I use to distribute my mails according to projects but they do not show on my Iphone? Is this function not possible?
    Thanks!

    I didn't set anything - it just happened. I think it only works for IMAP accounts. If yours is IMAP, the only thing I can think of is to delete the account and set it up again

  • MobileMe top-level folders not accepting mail messages

    Strange thing...
    Now that iPhone has "push" mail, I decided to take all my mail from Mail.app on my mac up to my MobileMe account. I wanted to do this as-is, but it's not quite that simple... However, the whole folder structure and all e-mails therein are now happily living in MobileMe.
    Except that they are not! All the Top-Level folders that contain other folders are now white in Mail.app, and don't exist at all in MobileMe. It's as if all folders were one level higher than they should be - all folders directly contained in a white parent folder appear as top level folders in MobileMe!! On the iPhone, they do exist, but their names are greyed out. Both in Mail.app and on the iPhone, they are empty and you cannot add mail messages to them even though, in Mail.app "on my Mac" they still contain mail and will happily accept mail messages...
    What gives? Is there something I need to do to change them from "folder folders" into "mail folders that happen to also have folders in them"???

    Not a single answer or post on this...
    I decided to create new folders and add a dummy place holder message in them, then move over all the subfolders to this one. There was a bit of strange behaviour when synchronising with MobleMe (old folder disappeared without my deleting it, etc) but now all is well and all my top level folders can accept mails.
    During the process, it seems like MobileMe didn't know that these folder existed - when renaming or deleting them, I do an error saying that they did not exist. Indeed, on MobileMe, they did not exist and this resulted in all the first level subfolders being at the top level in me.com - very messy. It looks a lot better now!

  • Creating file folders in iPad mail

    Is it possible to create mail folders in iPad mail, or is there an app that let's you organize mail into folders

    It depends on what email provider your using to make a new folder. For example I use gmail and coustum folders in gmail are called labels. Don't ask me why they are called labels... You can add a folder from the iPad and here is how to do it with gmail.
    Open a new browser window in Safari...
    Type in google.com in the URL address bar...
    Click on Gmail in the menu...
    Type in your user name and password...
    When Gmail loads, look at the bottom of the page and click on basic HTML...
    You can add folder (labels) in two places. From the settings (top right), label tab. Or from the  left hand column, labels, edit labels...
    Add the a new label with a name...
    You can add as many folders (labels) to you liking.
    Click on the email icon app. If the new folder doesn't show up hit the home button and click on the email app again, the new folder should show up.
    Once you have done this a few times you'll get a good workflow.
    I'm sure you can do this with other email providers that let's you access your email by way of a bowser page.

  • HT2500 how to alphabetize mailboxes (mail folders) in left column of Mail application

    Does anyone know how to how to alphabetize mailboxes (mail folders) in left column of Mail application? It should be easy, but I can't find a way.
    Thanks.

    Hi sanjampet, that didn't work for me.  I disabled my five email accounts, which made the emails dissappear, all mail folders were still visible, I closed the program.  I reopened the program, re-enabled the email accounts, and all the same folders were all still visible - not in alphabetical order, so frustrating.  One would think apple would have a simple button that could be clicked to put mail box folders into order?  Drag and drop is too difficult for me too due to the number of mailboxes.  Any other thoughts?

  • Empty import folder when importing Mac Mail 6.5 folders to Mac Mail 4.5

    When importing Mac Mail version 6.5 folders into Mac Mail version 4.5 the resulting import folder is completely empty.  The import process happens instantaneously and no error occurs.  Does anyone know if 6.5 is not backwards compatible with 4.5?

    That's almost as ludicrous as the reason I'm trying to import new mail into an older version.  At least I know now to quit trying.  Thanks for the answer.

  • Folders in E Mail

    Got email program that works fine in ipad, but it seems that only thing i can do with emails is delete or leave in ever increasing list. Is there any way to make individual folders to store different emails from different people. The only folders i can find is Inbox and delete, but cannot make any others.
    Only using one email account, not sure if that helps.
    Cheers

    You cannon create email folders in the Mail app. If it's an IMAP account then you can set up folders on your computer and they should then appear on th iPad; if it's a POP account then you are stuck with what you see.

  • Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    I need to check a few other things...
    Click on 'Mail' in the upper left corner next to the Apple ()
    Click Preferences
    Click the 'Accounts' tab
    Make sure your iCloud account is highlighted in the column on the left.
    In the account information section what does it say next to:
    Incoming Mail Server?
    Outgoing Mail Server?
    Also, did you use MobileMe before the iCloud?

  • Why my smart folders dissapear in mail when i close mail application in mountain lion?

    Why my smart folders dissapear in mail when i close mail application in mountain lion?
    Please help!

    My results jumped up from around 1000 to 10,000 when I did that.
    I think this may have to do with having x11 and xcode installed.
    In case anyone is interested, these are the folders I've had to exclude:
    User\Library\Developer
    System\Library\Frameworks
    opt in the root folder of the HD (this is x11. You may have to Finder's 'go to folder' option to get to it.)
    There was also Office stuff coming up which looks like it's from the system when you see it (the identities folder and the subfolder within the Office 2011 folder in Applications)
    The combination of this stuff seemed to create the impression of more files from the System and Library folders were coming up than actually were.
    In case anyone is still reading, the stuff *still* being thrown up that I'm aware of is
    Mountain Lion screensavers from the System and Library folders.
    PreferencePanes - System, PreferencePanes - User and PreferencePanes - Library folders, which each show up as individual results.
    But, as you say, bispymusic, perhaps Apple has deigned that those folders appear in results. Thanks a lot for your help! Have a good one.
