How to delete an e-mail account

I've got on e-mail message in one of my accounts that's unformatted, ostensibly from the Boston Globe.  When the message is brought up to read, the Mail program crashes.  I can read and send other messages, but when I try to delete this message, the program crashes.  Anyone else have this experience?  I'm thinking maybe the easiest thing to do is delete this e-mail account and then re-add it.  How do I do that?

You can delete an account by selecting the account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and it should have a Delete Account button on it - you can then add it back via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account
Have you tried logging into the account via Safari and seeing if you can delete the email that way ?

  • How to delete an e-mail account in n97 mini

    Hi,
    I have been trying to find an option to delete my mailbox but I can't seem to find it. Been looking around and people have been saying go to Messages>Options>Settings>Email>Mailboxes, but when I do not have the "Email" option. The reason why I want to delete my account is because for some reason I have not been receiving emails on my phone anymore, even when I sync it. I'd appreciate it if anyone has a solution.
    Thanks

    @lara_azzopardi
    Seriously if you don't have similar screen to this the reson that you are not receiving emails may be due to software issue upon your phone:

    From the menu bar select Tools-Account Settings
    Select the account that you want to remove
    At the bottom of the account list is Account Actions-Remove Account

    I now have my daughters iPad can you please tell me why I can't set up iCloud.in settings the iCloud is greyed out also how do I change her mail account to mine?

    To change your iCloud ID or password you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your other ID.  If you need to migrate any of your daughter's iCloud data to your account, choose Keep on My iPad when prompted, then choose Merge to upload it to the new account.  If not, choose Delete from My iPad.

    Addressbook synching would be through your iCloud account. It has nothing to do with Safari.

    I deleted an e-mail account from my I Phone.  Unfortunately it deleted all of the contacts from my phone. Is there a way to restore those contacts?

    Add the account back to your phone and enable contacts syncing with the account and the contacts will reappear on your phone.  If you want them in iCloud, you'll have to copy them to your iCloud account.  If you need assistance doing this, reply back and I'll help you.

  • How do i set the mail account to bring up my yahoo emailbox?

    you know when you go to a website and there is an email address that you can click on and it brings up your mail account? well, i did have a .mac account for 60 days and i did not want to pay $99 to keep it. i use yahoo for email. how do i change the mail account so that yahoo is the name of the email account in mail?
    i cannot figure out how to do it.
    thanks,
    sunny

    I've discovered this thread and am considering using Free Pops to get my Yahoo Mail.
    Can I just ask tele player and Mike N. as seasoned users of the app how complicated it is? I'm an intermediate sort of user; I've installed and used plenty of 3rd party apps before, I just don't like to go anywhere near code or the Terminal.
    Does it sound like I'd manage with Free Pops? For now, I only want it to access my Yahoo e-mail in the Mail application on OS X.
    Thanks, Charity

  • How can I delete an E-Mail account in Nokia 6300

    I have setup an E-Mail account (e.g Gmail) on my Nokia 6300. I would like to delete this account which is no longer needed. I couldn’t find any delete option there. Before Nokia 6300, I have used Nokia E-50. It has a very simple option in Connect folder to delete or manage these E-mail accounts. Waiting for you response.

    Simply enter the configurations menu from settings, go to personal config and the account should be listed there, select options and delete.

  • How do I delete my g-mail account from Mail on my iPhone?

    I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 8.1.3.  I've had my g-mail account on it until today.  My g-mail account had been hijacked.  I reset my password and disabled the account.  Now, even if I activate the account again I cannot enter my new password.  I tried to find a way to delete the account completely and start over, but I can't seem to find the right way.  Any help?  Step by step would help a great deal.
