Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately you can't delete accounts, you also can't change or remove iCloud addresses.

  • How do I remove an OWA email account from my E71

    I need to work out how to remove a OWA email account from my E71. I have seen various replies for removing email account but not for OWA.
    I have already looked in Installations --> Emailon3 --> but the account I want to delete is not listed there.
    Have also tried Communic. --> Messaging --> Options --> Settings --> E-mail --> Options --> Delete but the delete option is not there.
    I need to remove the account because I changed my account password at work and then was unable to update the password in the phone, I had to install the account a second time to get it working again. Any suggestions for avoiding this in the future also gratefully received!  
    Thanks!

    In the Messaging application, it seems from your description that you didn't go deep enough: Options > Settings > E-mail > Mailboxes.
    There choose/select/highlight the mailbox you wish to delete and hit 'C' (or Options > Delete).

  • Mail -- How can I change the default email account from which my messages go, without having to change it each time I draft a message?  It currently assumes an email account that I rarely use. Thanks.

  • How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?

    Hello all,
    How do I fully delete an email account from my Apple Mail app on my iMac?
    When I go here: Mail > Preferences Mail > Accounts
    I got the message that I needed to delete it from my Internet Accounts.
    When I go here: System Preferences > Internet Accounts > select the account >
    I cannot select or click the minus sign on the bottom left to delete the account because it does not appear in the list.
    Yet the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
    The email account no longer appears in the left column where all my email accounts are in Apple Mail as I have deleted that domain and no longer use it, so the email was deleted at the server level. However, again, the email account still shows up in my email logs with errors that it cannot connect.
    This is driving me bananas!
    Thank you for any help you can provide!
    ~ Angela

    If you haven't already done so, please quit and relaunch Mail. See whether the account goes away.

  • I deleted a pop email account from mail.  How can I recover those sent messages without Time Machine?

    I deleted a pop email account from mail.  How can I recover those sent messages without Time Machine?

    Thomas,
    "Note that you were warned that this would happen and approved it.  When you delete an e-mail account in Mail, you are shown a message like the following:"
    You didn't read my problem - I said I deleted a POP email account.  I always read the messages that pop up and in Mail when you delete a POP account - IT DOESN'T TELL YOU NUTHIN!  It just deletes it - which *** for me.  Fortunately, I had an iPhone and on that device I had about a 1000 messages that I could recover but on all my POP accounts I download them from the server onto my Mac so they were only on Mail (the really old ones that I wanted to keep.)  I had to move them into another directory one by one basically because when I would move 50 some of them would move and some wouldn't and I never did figure out that problem.  Basically the ones that would not move are the ones that were associated with my domain changes with GoDaddy, and there were a lot of those.  Have no idea as to why only those were resistant to moving but I can get all that data from GoDaddy anyway.
    This thread is now moot seeing as how I've recovered everything I can and am going to just move on - and back up more often.  ;-)
    Apple and Mail need to rewrite that program to include a WARNING MESSAGE when deleting an Account in Mail that says ALL YOUR MESSAGES ARE GOING TO DISAPPEAR NEVER TO RETURN IF YOU DELETE THIS ACCOUNT, SO YOU DANG WELL BETTER HAVE A BACK UP IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ANYTHING BEFORE PRESSING THAT MINUS SYMBOL!  ;-)

  • My ipad doesn't send emails because it says the server does not allow relaying. What is relaying?

    My ipad doesn't send emails. Message says the server does not allow relaying. What does that mean and how do I fix it?

    Copied from here.
    http://appletoolbox.com/2012/01/server-does-not-allow-relaying-email-error-fix/
    How to fix
    If this is an AOL issue, try these: go Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select your AOL.com account > SMTP from the Account Info Page > SMTP from the SMPT Page > make sure that the Server is ON, make sure that the Host Name is smtp.aol.com. Further make sure your username and password are correct and added in the Outgoing Mail server; make sure that Authentication is set to Password and make sure that Server Port is 587
    If this is not an AOL email: go Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts >Account Info > SMPT> turn off primary server, turn on other (e.g. AT&T) SMTP server.
    Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Your Account > Outgoing mail Server SMTP > Primary Server then turn Server ON and fill in both User Name and Password under Outgoing Mail Server.

  • SharePoint 2010 list view - How to filter on a multiline text box field - the view filter does not allow me to select it.

    Hi there,
    Does someone know in SharePoint 2010 list view - How to filter on a multiline text box field - the view filter does not allow me to select it.
    Thanks,

    Hi，
    Per my knowledge,
    it is by design that the data type multiple lines of text can only use “contains” and “begins with” operators.
    You can also filter the list view using SharePoint Designer,
    Open your list AllItem.aspx page in SPD ->click “Filter” > in “Field Name” select your multipe line of text field, in “Comparison” will displayed four choices.

  • Having trouble removing a student email account from the Windows Mail App because the school has started using office 365 for thier email which i dont have access to

    I was wondering if anybody has any ideas on how to remove a gmail account that was set up by a community college for use on their mail servers and then find out that after awhile they have locked you out because they have started using office 365 for their
    emails and you are left with a student email account that you have no idea how to delete because you have missied out on deleting it before they changed to a different email provider?
    Anybody with ideas please help because I don't know what to do

    Hi,
    Regarding to Windows Mail App, do you mean the Modern UI App in Windows 8.1? Do you mean that you want to remove the email account from Mial App? Generally, we can simply remove the account by the "Account" option in Mail App (Open Mail App, move
    the mouse the right chram bar, click Account, then click the mail account\Remove account), but if the email acocunt is tied with the Microsoft Account which is used on the pc, in that case, it is unavailable to remove the email account, you need to contact
    your college to disconnect the Microsoft Account.
    If I'm misunderstanding something, please free correct me.

  • How can I set up 2 email accounts in Mail

    It's me again.
    I'm trying to set up Mail 2.1.3. in 10.4.11. I have 2 email accounts. I can enter one just fine but it won't take another. When I try, it says that I "already have a POP account". How do I set up 2 email accounts? I see where I can enter the 2 email addresses by separating them by a comma. But the 2 addresses have different passwords and the password box takes only one password at a time. Any ideas?

    It's hard for me to tell by what has been written so far, but it may be referring to what you are entering for the account description. That is, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > Acct Info, for each account it has several entries: Acct Type (that you can't change), Description, email address, full name. If the first account's description is POP, then make the second account's description POP2. I use terms like, "home", "work", and "school" for my accounts' descriptions.
    If this is not what is going on, please write down every step you do, and every entry you make, as you try to configure your second email account and post it back here. Naturally, do NOT disclose your actual email address(es) or mail account login name or its password to us here.
