Help with imap email accounts

I have multiple emails. the pop ones send recieve from my pad no problem. The imap ones only recieve. if I answer an email it puts the message in the outbox and will not send it.

Check the outgoing information in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars for this account. Something is wrong there. Check with your email provider for correct settings.

I have an iPad with IMAP email accounts set up but I can find no "inbox, drafts, trash" folders anywhere, either on my ipad or desktop Mac. How can I set them up? They do not show on my MacMail preferences either and I can find no way to add them.

I have an iPad with IMAP email accounts set up but can find no "inbox, drafts, trash" folders for each email account anywhere on my iPad or in Mac Mail. How can I set them up? I can't find anyway to set them up anywhere. Thanks

Hello blu monkey,
I found some resources that I think might help with the visibility of your IMAP email folders on your iPad and Mac.
On your iPad, you may need to follow the steps in this article to make sure your folders are visible:
iOS: If IMAP Mail folders are not visible
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1393
On your Mac, I am not sure if you have the sidebar enabled, but you can enable it using the steps in the article below. When this is showing, you should see your email account listed near the bottom with a triangle next to it. When the triangle is pointing down, it should show your folders:
Mail (Mountain Lion): Show or hide the sidebar

Help with dual email accounts

I am trying to set up dual email accounts and keep getting a prompt that says,"The mail server cannot be connected." Then it says on the bottom of the window, "Go online or offline." My account is fine, the one I'm trying to set up has a ! warning next to it in the mailbox. I went under prefs. and went to accounts and basically put in the same info as the other. Minus the name and password are different. What have I done wrong? John

Help with imap gmail account via mac mail

What are the best settings for gmail as imap in mac mail?
I have my gmail account set up with mac Mail as an IMAP account.
I notice that in the last few weeks?? not sure how long, my mac mail is taking forever to load. I opened the activity window and it seems like there are so many things happening. I did find an old account that was still had some activity and while I had delteed it, I did need to do a few more steps to get it out of the process.
Now, as it still seems to take forever for my inbox to fully load, I began looking into the settings.
I am not able to change the settings for trash and I think saving the deleted messages to the server could be a waste of time. This is the advanced setttings page
the trash is 'grayed out' and won't allow me to uncheck the 'store deleted messages on the server'. Anyone know how to change this?
Also, I want to uncheck 'store sent messages on the server' as I think that will save a LOT of process activity, but gmail's directions for imap accounts says to leave it checked. Not sure why, any thoughts?
Michelle

I'm not familiar with CalbeOne, but you can follow the instructions they provided at their site:
http://help.cableone.net/HSD/mycableone/migrate/default.aspx
You might also want to make sure you followed their transfer instructions.
Build your accounts in Mail as per the POP or IMAP settings provided. When adding accounts to Mail, when you get to the first screen, you can hold the option key down when you hit continue for more options on the Mail configurations rather than the standard defaults.
If you are viewing these accounts at the gmail website, then you might need to do some configuration there also. I'm not sure on how much they are integrated with gmail.

Reasons IMAP email account might not show emails?

I'm working with an IMAP email account (provided by Network Solutions) and while Mail seems to be accepting all of the account information (username, login, etc.), nothing is showing up in the inbox. Outbound works fine, but inbound is empty. When I check the webmail interface, there is mail in the inbox... it is just not showing up in Apple Mail.
Any ideas?

I've been having these same symptoms for some time now:
- Standard IMAP account
- iPhone Mail / iPad Mail / OSX Sparrow / iPhone Sparrow / Thunderbird / Web interface all see messages in the inbox
- Apple Mail app does not see any messages
I found a solution that works for me. Look through all the folders in your IMAP account. You should have only one INBOX folder, the main one. If you have any others called "Inbox", move the mail out of them and delete the folders. Beware that you are deleting the phantom Inbox folders and not the real one. This solved the issue for me. For instance I had a folder called "Inbox.Trash" that was separate to the main INBOX folder.
I had to use OSX Sparrow to do this maintenance, I couldn't find any other tool that would give me such control over the folder structure. Preferences -> Organise -> Folders
Hope this helps.
Alex.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

TS3899 I cannot send email from my ipad the message keeps saying rejected by the server but there is nothing wrong with my email account with talk talk as I am able to send email from my iPhone and laptop any ideas?

My email won't send from my iPad. It says the server rejects it almost immediately I press the send email button, although there is nothing wrong with my email account when sending from my laptop or iphone. I have cancelled the account and re-entered it but it hasn't made a difference? Anybody help?

Hi Allan,
Thank you for your help . The account used to work perfectly until recently, after receiving support from the provider, I deleted the account now I am trying to set the account again.
After putting in the first details (name, email, description) Cannot send mail the password or username for "mail.bigpond.com" is incorrect. I would expect this because the information I put in is not for Bigpond. So I press ok & I change the outgoing server (this is the one that is incorrectly labelled bigpond) to aapt, then I press save.
Then it says "verifying" but comes up with Cannot connect using SSL do you want to try setting up the account without SSL. I press yes.
Then I get the message "the POP server "mail.aapt.net.au" is not responding. Check your network connection & that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server. (I ahve already checked this with aapt & it is correct.

How do you set the time period on IMAP email accounts (razr maxx)

Hi Guys -
Does anyone know how you can set the time period that the stock email will keep the already downloaded messages for IMAP email accounts?
Mine never seems to show more than a couple of days worth at a time. I'd ideally like to be able to see at least 2 weeks worth of messages without needing to download them again!
On other phones I've had there was a setting in the menu, but either I can't find it...or it's not there. I've found the setting for how OFTEN it checks the accounts, but not the setting I am seeking.
Your help is appreciated!
Best Wishes for the Holiday Season.
-Rich

Hey Rich. Once in 'settings,' there should be a "days to sync' under the 'data usage' section. You don't have that?

HT201320 Does my email service provider have to provide the ability for me to create an IMAP email account in order for me to create Sub-folders within Apple Mail?

Hi, Apple Mail provides a function to create sub-folders within my mailbox so that I can group emails of similar subjects or from the same sender. My service provider only provides POP email protocol and the New Folder button does not appear in my Apple Mail account for that service provider. Icloud provides the opportunity for the iPad user to select between POP and IMAP. I can select IMAP and the New Folder button appears allowing me to create sub-folders within the icloud email account. Does this mean I cannot create sub-folders in my email account unless my service provider provides customers with the option of creating an IMAP email account?
This appears to be a problem for quite a few Apple Mail users, but service providers appear reticent to provide a response other than 'use Microsoft Exchange / Hotmail, Google GMail, or some other third party email service provider'. This is why I have chosen icloud as my email service provider. It is Apple and therefore Apple supports it. I have been a Telstra customer for over 15 years and they informed me today, strongly, that they support their own products and services, not Apple products, even though Telstra sell them. When I asked the Telstra Customer Support Manager whether they support Telstra customers, I was informed 'no, because the Telstra customer is not a Telstra product or service'. I have since cancelled my Telstra email account and am in the process of cancelling all of my Telstra services.

Yes. That is what it means. You need an IMAP account in order to create sub folders on the iPad.

Do i still need my imap email account?

do i still need my imap email account? I have an iCloud account also. Is it just duplicating?
Cheers!
Paul.

Do you mean your MobileMe account? (IMAP is just the connection protocol and other ISPs use it). Your MobileMe has become your iCloud account and if you have this successfully set up and working you can delete the MobileMe account as it won't do anything.
If you have an IMAP account with another address than @me.com or @mac.com you should leave it alone.

I can't set up an imap email account on new ipad.

I went to settings and did everything required to set up my imap email account. The account won't send or receive emails. The internet connection is great. I can set up a Gmail account with no problems, but the imap account won't work. I had my ISP reset my password, so that isn't a problem. Any suggestions?

hi problem is, when i start on the first screen - name,email add etc it then goes off and gets the info automatically and sets it up as a POP account - how do i change it to IMAP?
Thanks
