High mail count in empty Flagged folder

The counter says there are 5,150 flagged items, yet the folder is empty and says "No Flagged Mail". That's true, because I haven't flagged anything since installing iOS 7. But why the huge count and is there a way to get rid of it? Anyone know?

It works on a new install on a new computer... so its obviously from the upgrade... it happens on mine as you have described... but setup a new computer for a client and they got message counts on their smart folders...

MacBook Pro OS10.9.3 Mail empty "Flagged" folder shows phantom message "1" - how to delete?

Flagged folder: How can I erase the "1" showing a message when the folder is empty! Or, how can I delete the Flagged folder altogether?

First empty the Trash and the Junk folders. Restart Mail. Then come back.

Sometimes Mail is slow emptying trash folder or sending emails with attachments

This happens occasionally- but enough to be an annoyance!
I am about to send an email using Mail to an address, and I wait very patiently while the Mail program makes a copy, communicates with server, then finally sends the email. Sometimes, to send an email with a simple attachment, this can take as long as three to four minutes!
Another related problem is Emptying the Trash folder.
Sometimes it takes an inordinate amount of time to do this, and other times such "deletion" takes mere few seconds.
I wonder what it is I'm doing wrong.

Hi
The context of this question is:
* I've had an Apple iMac for just over 3 years;
* and I've been using their 'Mail' application to send/receive emails;
* but not infrequently, when I send an email with one or more attachments all of the email doesn't get to the recipient;
* and after working with Apple and getting nowhere;
* I'm now using Thunderbird instead of Mail.
I like Thunderbird, but I've noticed that if I send an email with an attachment (an example is an email I've just sent with a 2.6MB attachment), it takes a while to both (a) first send and then (b) copy the email to my 'send' folder.
Are there any 'settings' changes I can make to speed things up, or do I just need a bigger machine? (I've noticed that over the 3+ years I've had the iMac, it's got progressively slower and slower.)
Regards
John Bugler

Apple Mail open FLAGGED folder by default, NOT Inbox

I have that issue for a while but would like to fix it
Every time i start Apple Mail, it open the Flagged folder not the default INBOX folder
can someone has some input ?
deleted the .plist
deleted the "Saved Application State" content
nothing's changed
Thx
Denis

Thank you TomJones75. When I posted this initially, I was running iOS 6.1.3 and not iOS 7. I don't think editing the order of the inboxes was an option back on iOS 6.1.3. With your tip, I was able to re-order my inboxes but it still defaults to the Exchange account when opened.
I.e. first account listed under mailboxes is now an Outlook account and the 2nd is an Exhannge account. Mail still defaults to the Exhange account even though the Outlook is my default email address for the iPhone.
Good tip though! Thanks!

Ios 7 flagged mail count is 25695 but there are no messages in flagged mailbox

There are no messages in this iPhone in any of the mailboxes (including trash) yet the flagged mail count is over 25000, and the mail app is using over 2.6GB

Check or Empty your trash folders.

My apple mail flagged messages are not showing up in the flagged folder.

my apple mail flagged messages not showing up in the flagged folder ?

All messages finally appeared in "Sent" in Mail.app. But it sure took some time.
Guess there is a severe lag time between .Mac and Mail.app?

I can't open mail, all I get is a white page with the 5 icons at the top right, the flag, folder etc. then the white pages disappears. I have rebooted, reset my iPad, doesn't help. HELP anyone....tnx

Hello tomzmem,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
This situation does sound very frustrating. I know that you have tried some great troubleshooting steps already and the issue remains unresolved. Have you forced the Mail application to close and then opened it back fresh? If not, this is the next troubleshooting step I would suggest. Please let me know if the issue remains unresolved.

Flagged folder behaviour in Yosemite Mail

Hello all,
Since upgrading to Yosemite, Mail's "Flagged" folder does not seem to work the way it used to. In Mavericks this folder used to show all flagged messaged, including the ones locally archived in "On my Mac" mailboxes. Now it won't show other flagged messages than the ones from "regular" IMAP mailboxes.
Can anyone confirm this new annoying behaviour? Am I the only one in this case? Is there a way to come back to the old behaviour?
Thanks in advance for any help!

No, working fine here. Try rebuilding index.

Flagged mails shown in "flagged" folder after deleting them

Hi folks,
I have the following problem with my mail app:
I marked 4 mails as flagged and they were shown in the "flagged"-folder. After deleting them the flagged folder shows still the 4 flagged mails although they are deleted. Meanwhile I reinstalled the specific mail account, restarted the iPhone and so on. Nothing helped. Any ideas? Thx in advance.
(iPhone 4S, iOS 7)

Hi Laura
I'm not sure you said which version of RoboHelp you are
using. I'm going to base my answer on X5.
You should find a file inside your project folder location
that is named rhbuildtag.apj. So what I would do is to close
RoboHelp HTML, locate and delete your ProjectName.CPD file. Edit
the rhbuildtag.apj file to remove any instances of those tags. Then
restart RoboHelp HTML and see if things have improved. If my hunch
is correct, this should correct the issue.
Cheers... Rick

How can I show my mail count that I have saved in my folder when entering my mail box?

I want to display my overall mail count when I open my mail. Even when I saved them.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

E-mail counter for POP3 account has gone negative

When all e-mails are read the e-mail counter shows "-1/0". Anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix?

Yeah it's just an annoyance really. It now says "-2/0", while my empty deleted items folder has a 2 next to it. Weird. I noticed an e-mail dated Dec 31,1969 just before it went to -2. I always delete everything anyway since all messages are saved at home, so I suppose I could delete the account and set it up again.

Non existent flagged emails still show as being present in flagged folder

Greetings, Experts!!
iphone 4s iOS 7.latest
I had three flagged emails which I deleted in a pop account I use.
I now have a flagged folder which says there are three flagged emails, but the folder is empty.
How can I rid this message that I have 3 flagged emails?
Thanks!
S.

I see that too, but it is searching inboxes only, and the results are flagged emails in inboxes, not flagged messages that were placed in subfolders in Apple Mail on my iMac.
UPDATE: I see that it does eventually find the flagged emails in the other mailboxes. It is a workaround, but not the functionality I want. It also finds any email with the word flagged. Thanks for the suggestion.

High thread count on store.exe

I understand that the mdb store process utilizes as much memory as is available. My question is regarding the thread count on the process. One of the three mailbox servers tends to have a higher thread count than the other two. It
usually ranges from 150 to 200 (while the other two are usually 130 to 150) but today it is a little over 300. The rpc thread count on all the mailbox servers stays pretty low (60 or under) and the rpc thread count on the CAS servers usually
hang out around 55-65, so that's all good. All three mailbox servers also use VERY close to the same amount of memory all the time, so that doesn't seem to be making a difference. I am just trying to determine why the thread count is noticably
higher. This server and one of other mailbox servers replicate the public folder database, and I can understand why that would account for some additional activity, but you would think the thread count would be higher on the other server with the public
folder database as well, but it stays pretty low. Hardware-wise these servers are all identical. So is there something I can monitor in perf mon for instance? I don't want to use experfwiz because that monitors everything under the sun and
I need it a bit more centralized. I have googled all over the place and the only thing I can find is that with newer versions of exchange this thread count ranges from 200-300 on heavy usage, and exch07 can handle up to 500 threads, so I can't even find
which specific things to monitor that directly correlate with this issue. So while I understand that it's not really too high, I would like to find out why it deviates from the norm if the other two servers are equal for all intents and purposes (same
hardware, balanced DAG. etc). I would like to mitigate any potential issues. Thank you.

Hi pchw,
Thank you for your question.
I am sorry that we could not find the specific things to monitor this issuer directly, because there are many reason which caused it. For example: virus, big size attachment in queue, hardware performance and so on. We could refer to the following steps
to troubleshoot:
Restart the service of “Microsoft Exchange transport”;
Create a new database and move mailbox to new mailbox;
We could do some disk health check if the load test is normal;
Collect related application log and system log to
[email protected] for our troubleshooting.
We could run SDP on Exchange server and send it to
[email protected] for our troubleshooting.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/askie/archive/2012/05/22/introduction-to-support-diagnostics-platform-sdp.aspx
We could use tools and logs to analysis if there are anything wrong or abnormal on Exchange server 2013. our bottle neck is disk IO latency, store.exe do require some CPU usage, but if our disk IO speed can keep in a normal range, the
CPU usage will be smaller. Exchange is highly rely on disk IO performance because it need lots of IO operation regarding to transaction log and database file. If Disk IO has a high latency, I will definitely impact store.exe, if it`s getting seriously sometimes
it may cause store.exe no response.
We could refer to the following link:

Mail hang with multiple pop accounts and invalid new mail counter

All
More than a year ago, I migrated all email accounts from Outlook to Apple Mail using O2M application. I have 2 pop accounts and gmail account. Everything worked fine for a few month but then Mail started to hang during message receiving. It did so very often (4/5 times). When it does, nothing will revive it except a "force quit".
I tried to fetch email from each account individually, that worked well every time. After I was sure that it has to do with getting new mail simultaneously, I tried everything to fix it. I tried to reconstruct all the mail boxes, I tried using only 2 boxes with all combinations (1 pop 1 gmail, 2 pop, etc) but nothing worked.
I even tried to export all my mail boxes, then delete everything from Mail then reimport them with no luck.
In addition, a couple of months later, my "Inbox" new mail counter started to sometimes displaying the wrong new mail count. It displays 2-4 new messages while there is none. In order to be sure, I created a smart mail box to have only new mail and it had none. By simply switching to any other folder then returning back to Inbox solves the problem.
Can any one help?

Make absolutely sure that your email addresses and configuration are correct. In nearly every case I've encountered, this is the problem.
If you've confirmed this, make sure you're configured properly on your webmail account, if you have one. Webmail is something like ATT, the source of your internet.
If you're still flummoxed, play hardball. Make sure you have all your current account info and passwords, and delete them in Mail/Preferences/Accounts. Then, reenter them one by one until they're perfect. This makes sure your settings are consistent and correct.

How do I remove an empty gmail folder from my iPad2?

How do I remove an empty gmail folder from my iPad2?

I Think that you had a corrupt email or an email with a really large attachment in that folder and it is now causing the mail app to crash. When the app closes and goes back to the home screen, that is an app crashing. I would try to delete this folder on the server. Log into your Gmail in a web browser and try to delete it there. If you delete it there, that will delete it on the iPad.
