How can I restrict the number of emails in iOS 7?

In the previous versions of iOS you could indicate how much emails you wanted to store on your iPhone. Now in iOS 7 that option is gone.
I don't want to clogg my iPhone whit all my emails.
What can I do to restrict the number of emails?

Other than changing to an IMAP or Exchange account, you can't. The feature you're referring to was removed in iOS 7.0.

How can I limit the number of emails retained on my ipad air?

How can I limit the number of emails that are retained on my iPad Air? Because of legal requirements of a long-term project, I cannot permanently delete emails relating to that project from my ISP's mail server. My gmail account contains over 17,000 emails and, upon setting up my new iPad, and updating to ios 7.1.1, I now have all 17,000+ emails taking up space. I would like to limit the emails by count as I was able to do on my old iPad running ios 5.1.1 OR to retain them based on date range. I have not found any instructions on the support discussions or general iPad blogs that allow me to do that. Any way around this problem?
I also miss the 5.1.1 mail search feature that allowed me to narrow the search by from/to/subject/all. Does anyone know if that feature is available using some little-known ios 7.1.1 feature?
Thanks for your help.

If you have a decent mail provider like Microsoft Hotmail or Outlook.com mail it does.
If you have Gmail it does not. Quite right. Gmail is rubbish.

Hi, how can I limit the number of emails I can see on my iPhone 5. Every time in delete one and older email gets added from my live.co.uk account (where I want to keep my 2500 emails) I just don't want many on my phone. Thanks

You can't. Why on earth would you attempt to manage 2500 emails with setting up a folder structure or some means of doing so? Simply keeping them in an single inbox is not realistic, no matter what email client you use.

How can I limit the number of emails on my device with a POP account. Thousands of old emails keep loading, no way to rid them, without deleting each one! Using up all my storage on device! Crazy! Help!

Help, where is the limiting selection for the number of messages to retain on device? How can I get rid of old, read, messages? Just a problem since upgrade to new ios7

How do I restrict the number of emails that my iphone downloads on ios7

On ios6 I had my mail set up to only download 25 messages per box to my iphone. I have updated to ios7 today and this option has disappeared from the settings menu and now my phone has downloaded more then the 25 that I want it to.
How can I specify that I just want the 25??
Thanks.

No there isn't.
Have the emails been read via webmail access using a browser on your computer or with an email client on your computer if both email accounts are being accessed with an email client on your computer?
With that many unread emails on the iPhone, that sounds like one or both email accounts were created as a POP account. When creating an existing email account as a POP account with an email client on a computer or on a device such as the iPhone, all existing received emails at the incoming mail server that remain on the server are downloaded as new and unread emails.
If the accounts were created as an IMAP account and all emails have been read elsewhere, they would not be available on the iPhone as unread emails since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server.

How do I limit the number of emails that show in my active mailbox? There was a way in Settings on ios 6, but i can't find it in ios 7.

You need to delete your current hotmail account set up on your iphone.
Once this has done click 'Add Account' and select the new 'outlook.com' tab.
Set up your hotmail account again from scratch and this will then allow you to select how many weeks/months of emails you sync to your phone.
Im not sure if anyone else had a similar problem to me prior to iOS 7, but if i deleted an email from my hotmail account on my iphone - it wouldnt sync with my actual hotmail account. So when i logged in online all the emails I had deleted on my phone would still be showing as unread.
But by setting the account up as above, they now sync perfectly.
Well for me anyway

Check Mail Preferences, Accounts tab. Select the account, then the Mailbox Behaviors tab. See if you have it set to Permanently erase deleted messages when: One week old. (or less)

How can I stop the number of unread emails showing on the icon for my main account including the number of emails in my gmail account as well?

How can I stop the number of unread emails, displayed on the icon for my main account, including the number of unread emails in my gmail account as well? The number is accurate (unlike the many users who seem to have phantom unread emails) it's just that I want each acc to show its own total, as it did before. I suspect I fiddled with some setting unwittingly. It seems to do it first thing each morning, particularly. Many thanks

If you go to Settings>Notification Centre>Mail each of your email accounts will appear here separately. You can then change if Badges are displaye on the Mail App - which will show you the number of emails - or not.

Steve

How can i restrict the change of serial number in delivery document ?

how can i restrict the manual change of serial number in delivery document ?

I can tell you that you are observing standard program behavior.
By using a reference document for a return delivery, you are only
receiving proposal values for a new document. The posting will not
create a permanent link between the referred document and the return
delivery document.
Hence it is allowed to change various fields. This applies not only
to serial numbers, but to storage location, quantity and other fields.

That issue can be caused by the FastestFox extension.
* FastestFox Options > General, uncheck "Enhance Awesomebar"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

How can i delete a number of emails at once? I have a backlog and don't want to go through them all.

how can i delete a number of emails at once? I have a backlog and don't want to go through them all.

No.
With an Exchange or IMAP account you can delete the messages with the email client used on your computer or via webmail access for the account - all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account.
Not possible with an antiquated POP account.

How can I restrict the total no. of recs. per physical page

Hi !
I have created a report and I am saving that in a text file. The
problem is that when I try to take the output on the printer
then the total no of records overflows to the next pages and the
next page heading comes much below to it's designated place.
Max.no of records property in the repaeting frame is for the
logical page.
How can I restrict the max. number of records per physical page ?
Any pointer will be welcome,
Thanks in advance,

Just for fun (and in case this wasn't done to death in the other thread), the rule posted here states:
Most years have 365 days, but a leap year has 366 days. That adds up to 52 weeks (where each week is exactly 7 days) PLUS 1 or 2 additional days. The year 2012 has exactly 366 days.Now if the year starts on a Sunday in a non-leap year, you end up with 53 Sundays. Or if either of the first two days lands on a Sunday during a leap year, then you can also get 53 Sundays.>
which allows a calculation like this:
with test_data as
     ( select rownum + 1999 as test_year from dual
       connect by rownum <= 15 )
select test_year
     , case
          when first_day = 'SUN'
          or ( first_day = 'SAT' and leap_year = 'Y' )
             then 53
          else 52
       end as sundays
from   ( select test_year
              , to_char(to_date(d.test_year||'-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD'),'DY', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH') first_day
              , case extract(day from last_day(to_date(d.test_year||'-02','YYYY-MM'))) when 29 then 'Y' else 'N' end as leap_year
         from   test_data d );
TEST_YEAR    SUNDAYS
      2000         53
      2001         52
      2002         52
      2003         52
      2004         52
      2005         52
      2006         53
      2007         52
      2008         52
      2009         52

How can I increase the number of mail recipients beyond 100?

How can I increase the number of mail recipients beyond 100?

If you're just sending a one-off email, send it in several batches (around 30 recipients each is usually safe). If you do this a lot, for business reasons, you need to look at specialized email blast services such as MailChimp or Constant Contact.

Try using Siri and ask "Who's phone is this?" It should give you the name, number, and email address of the owner. Also, you can try swiping to unlock, select Emergency, then see if they have a Medical ID set up. If they do, they may have the name of a contact with a phone number listed.
