I have duplicate mail accounts and deleted messages keep redownloading in gmail

I am using Mountain Lion and I have a me.com email account, gmail account, and sbcglobal.net account. I set up my accounts in iMail and I use iCloud, but now I have duplicate mail accounts and every time I delete messages from my gmail account, the next time I go into Mail, all the deleted messages are back in my gmail account. How do I stop this from happening and how do I make it so that I don't have duplicates of everything!

All 3 email accounts show up under Inbox, but all three also show up as iCloud, sbcglobal.net, and gmail. The iCloud account will occasionally get duplicates, the sbcglobal.net account only gets mail that sbcglobal.net has put into a "bulk" folder and seems to be all junk mail and does not show up in the sbcglobal.net inbox account and the gmail shows up in both places, but I can delete messages in the gmail inbox account and they do not download again, but the second gmail account is the one that keeps redownloading the already deleted messages into the gmail "all mail" folder. I have tried deleting the gmail account and have gone to gmail's help page, but they are behind with set up for Mac Mail. The set up is for Mail 3.0 and not 6.2. It keeps downloading over a thousand emails into this gmail "all mail" folder. Is there any way to stop this?

Hi, how cn I keep in my computer the deleted messages forever? It is because everyday many of them desapeared

The core setting: Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select the account(s) > Mailbox Behaviors > Permanently erase deleted messages when: Never
If the messages are still being deleted with that Never setting selected, then the mail server is the likely culprit.
If you are using POP, then the mail server can delete the messages when they're downloaded.
Irrespective of POP or IMAP, the mail server can be configured to delete older messages. Check with whomever is maintaining your mail server for details.
It's also conceivable that there is some sort of add-on housekeeping software installed on your Mac, and that that software is getting "helpful" here.
The obvious and general recommendation: don't store messages in the trash. Trash tends to get emptied.

How to make project name / no. visible in suppor message?

Hello,
When creating a support message (NOTIF_CREATE), I can provide a project name /project number with the message.
This info is also available, when starting the transaction monitor (CRM_DNO_MONITOR).
But when looking into the message itself, this information is not available anymore.
Where can I make this info visible?
I am assuming, that the project is somehow linked to the support message and that the project is available in principle.
Can anyone provide me a way how to link / show the project within the support message?
Thanks and Regards,
Jan

How to make a copy of the IMAP Sent messages when the Sent folder file can not be found?

My Thunderbird works fine. I can also see messages sent in the Sent folder but I wonder are the sent messages only saved in the IMAP server. For the backup purposes I would like to copy the file of the Sent folder but I can not find a local file for it.
In /home/me/.thunderbird/44g5fxvp.default/ImapMail/mail.[mymail].fi I do have files
Archives-1.sbd
Archives.msf
Deleted Messages
Deleted Messages.msf
Drafts.msf
INBOX
INBOX.msf
inbox_old
inbox_old.msf
msgFilterRules.dat
Sent.msf
Templates.msf
Trash.msf
Trash.sbd
I.e.the Sent.msf esists but there is not file named Sent. Am I looking from a wrong place? Are my Thunderbird settings or preferences wrong? Is there something obvious I have missed?
What is the most convenient way to make a local copy of the Sent folder messages if Thunderbird does not make a local copy of it?
Information about my system:
Application Basics
Name Thunderbird
Version 31.0
User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.0

re: the Sent.msf esists but there is not file named Sent
That is because they are not stored on your computer they are stored on the server. The Sent.msf file is just an indexing file and does not store emails.
re INBOX, INBOX.msf, inbox_old, inbox_old.msf
These subscribed folders have been synchronised to get a local copy onto your computer in your Thunderbird profile folder.
You need to do the same with the 'Sent folder.
* https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/imap-synchronization#w_configuring-synchronization-and-disk-space-usage
then go into 'offline' mode to stop further synchronising.
Then you can right click on selected emails and save as .eml files in a folder external to Thunderbird.
You can also copy or move emails into a suitable folder in Local Folders. These folders keep emails on your computer, they are not modified by the server, they do not synchronise with any IMAP mail account.

Macbook Pro - mail account. Deleted messages keep coming back!

Hey,
I've deleted several messages (they were also in my drafts) and they keep popping back up in my sent mail and inbox, sometimes multiple copies of the same message. I want those messages gone. They keep coming back!!!! How do I fix this?

In Mail you have to move the message to gmail trash. Just deleting the message assigns it the delete label but doesn't delete it. You can truly delete the messages in web gmail, however.
I hope this helps.

ICloud mail: iPhone creates Deleted Messages folder for Trash mail?

I had a problem with one iCloud email account which I've spent half a day truing to sort so though I'd post what happened here in case anyone knows how it happened or in case anyone has the same problem. The problem centres around the Trash folder.
On all the other accounts (all iCloud email) the folders are replicated and all work. So Sent, Archive, Drafts and Trash are there. Deleting a mail on the iPhone, on the Mac or the Cloud puts the mail in the Trash (with the bin icon) and it's visible on all three devices in the same location (albeit the phone uses the Deleted Messages name for trash which is a bit dumb IMO considering it's called Trash everywhere else!!).
One account though seems to be in a mess. In the Cloud the folder structure is correct and all with the icons. The first problem is when adding the account to the phone.
First up, when selecting the various behaviours you can see the Deleted Messages icon with the bin icon to select for deleted messages (I do think this is confusing though - why not use the same folder name as appears in IMAP mail - Trash???) BUT there is also a folder called Trash that the phone can see in IMAP but that doesn't exist in the iCloud folder structure. Why this folder is even visible I don't know because on iCloud mail there are no user created folders at all, just the default icons and folder names.
When I send a message to the address on the iPhone and delete it from there the iPhone creates a Deleted Messages folder that is visible on iCloud mail. When I select the bin/trash icon on mail on the phone the mail is in there. The bin / Trash folder on iCloud remains empty and the Deleted Messages folder has the deleted mail.
So the first issue seems to be that the phone is seeing a folder that isn't there or that somehow the correctly named Trash folder with the icon has become named Trash when the phone sees it, and has a generic folder icon. Either way, I can't delete this Trash folder.
How it seems to have got fixed was that after trying all manner of things I went to Preferences on iCloud. I told iCloud to store messages in Deleted Messages. I then deleted the Deleted Messages folder then suddenly this Trash folder the phone had been seeing became visible. I then deleted that too and on checking back the Preferences had defaulted back to Trash, the only available option now.
Having gone back to the iPhone the bin icon is still next to the Deleted Messages folder but that Trash folder had gone. There were no other user defined folders either
I then tested sending messages to the account and deleting them from the phone, Mac and Cloud and they all went to the right place (Trash) and were all visible.
I'd had a problem ages ago where random mailboxes were appearing under the separate email names BELOW where the default boxes are listed and below any On My Mac folders. I'm wondering whether at some stage, with an old Google hangover, whether I'd selected 'Use this Mailbox for' when these random boxes appeared which might have renamed or messed with the routing of boxes in the Cloud.

That's the way it works. Push notifications are only triggered when you get "new" mail. Other actions, like deleting, reading, moving to a folder do not trigger a Push notification. Those actions only change things when you open the mail app.

Mail keeps receiving deleted messages!!!

Running OS X version 10.9.5 on my macbook air...ongoing issue with MacMail. It keeps receiving old deleted messages. This is super frustrating. It is happening with all my email accounts. I go through and delete the old emails...a day later I sign in to mail and it downloads 1000 messages again! Its like Groundhog day...Help!! I tried deleting messagesalreadydownloaded files in the mail data folder as I saw someone posted that as a solution but it did nothing...the files just reappear.

You have multiple email accounts, you will need to check how you have your server(s) set up to handle your mail.
Go to Mail, go to Preferences, go to Accounts, go to Mailbox behaviors and see the options you may have set.

Mail won't delete messages

Hello. Here's an out-of-the-blue problem I started having this weekend. The Mail ap on my MacBook suddenly stopped allowing me to delete messages. When I try to delete a message I am given this error message:
The destination mailbox “Deleted Messages (Mac.com) — On My Mac” does not allow messages to be moved to it.
I am able to delete messages by using Safari to log-in to .mac and viewing/deleting messages via the browser.
Any thoughts on how to fix this problem in the Mail ap?
Thanks!

Hello kristy:
You could do the "standard" troubleshooting things:
Repair permissions
Run repair disk from your software install DVD
Trash the preference file - com.apple.mail.plist (this will trash ALL of your preferences, so do not delete it from the trash)

Mail app not deleteing messages in trash like it's supposed to

I have a .mac email account. In "Mailbox Behaviors" I have checked "Move deleted messages to the Trash Mailbox" and "Store Deleted Messages on Server". I also have selected "Permenantly erase deleted messages when: one day old".
The problem is that mail is not deleting my messages when one day old. The messages just sit there in the trash forever.
Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas on how to solve?
Thanks.
EDIT: The message was deleted when I quit mail and restarted. I don't understand. Usually I leave my mail app up and running 24/7. I thought that selecting "Permenantly erase deleted messages when: one day old" was supposed to do that even if the mail app was running all the time, when it syncronizes? But I have to quit mail and restart it to get it to do that?

Hi, McToast.
I don't use .Mac mail, but I've noticed the same behavior w.r.t. "Delete messages when one day old." Personally, I think it's a bug. I just press Command-K every once in awhile in Mail to delete all the Trash: I have mail set up to move everything that is considered Junk to the Trash vs. a Junk mailbox.
I submitted a Mac OS X Feedback on this months ago. You may want to do the same.
You might want to check the Mail & Address Book Discussion, which is where Mail-related questions should be posted.
Good luck!

AOL account in Mail (Leopard) - Cannot delete messages

I just set up my AOL account in Mail (Leopard) and whenever I try to delete a message I receive the following; The IMAP command “UID COPY” (to Deleted Messages) failed for the mailbox “INBOX” with server error: UID COPY failed Deleted Messages: no such mailbox.
Any ideas on why it will not delete. I am using port 993 and had it set up automatically.

I have tried the above suggested solutions.
Solution 1 - Deleting the com.apple.mail.plist file and moving the mail folder and then rebuild - no change
Solution 2 - "unchecked the "Move Deleted Messages to Trash Mailbox" box under Preferences -- Accounts -- (my AOL account -- Mailbox behaviors."
- This works for just deleting the mail but if i send a Mail from my Mail App it is not able to keep a copy of it in the "sent" category in Mail it gives the error / show there to reflect my "sent" box.
"Mail was unable to open this mailbox on the server “imap.aol.com”.
The server error encountered was: SELECT Failed: Can't open mailbox Sent Messages: no such mailbox"
-I do not get this error though when i move items from within Mail from my inbox to my created folders on the AOL IMAP server.
I believe the error lies deeper in the new Mail app itself where within its settings when writing to what it believes is the default "Folder Name" on the server for "Sent" or "Deleted" section it differs with what it really is on AOL. Cause on AOL the folder names might be different and that is why it is having trouble looking for them.

How do you remove the very badly-placed 'delete message' icon from the Message List pane in Outlook 2013?

One of the worst bits of Usability Design I've come across in a very long time is the 'x' delete message icon in Outlook 2013, which deletes an email message with one click (no confirmation).
It's placed conveniently next to the right-hand scrollbar, and on Numerous occasions when using the scrollbar, you drift a few mm to the left and *accidentally* delete email messages at random. I'm pretty sure many people will have
unwittingly been doing this, but not noticed.
Question is : How do you switch off this feature? It's not listed in the 'view' as a column you can configure.
Thanks (in advance).

Hi,
As far as I know, the delete button is hard-coded and we cannot hide it through built-in function.
I have received some reports that some users complain that the Quick Delete button is often touched and delete the message mistaken whatever in PC or Surface device.
There is no official update for this so far. Hope it can be improved in next service pack release.
Regards.
