HT1338 Help with deleting mail in Draft folder

In Mail,  I have 4 email messages in my Draft Folder and I cannot delete them.  Mail is attempting to send them, but can't.  I want to get rid of them.  Deleting and erasing doesn't work.
Advice?

Are they in the drafts folder or outbox? Open Activity window under Window in Mail's menu. Click the processes in the Activity window and then try deleting the messages.

  • Help with Apple Mail

    Okay, I have my Apple Mail linked to my Yahoo account, and it's been that way since April with no problems until recently.
    I moved into my college dorm on Saturday, and last night I realized that I've only been getting emails on my iPhone from Yahoo. What's more is that I can not send emails from my Apple Mail. And when I sent it from the Yahoo website, it took about ten minutes for it to get to my phone, and then it finally showed up on the Yahoo website after being read on my phone.
    If anyone can help me with this, I'd be extremely greatful because I appreciate the convenience of the Apple Mail. If it's any help, my Yahoo account won't even access Outlook either.
    I tried deactivating it on my iPhone, but it still wasn't popping up on the Apple Mail.
    Here's what the side bar looks like (pictured below), and when I click the "!," it says
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Yahoo” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” on port 993 timed out.
    And if I take all accounts online, I get this
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Yahoo” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The connection to the server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” on port 993 timed out.
    So if anyone can help me fix this, it'd be a huge relief and I really appreciate it. =)

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Mail & IMAP = Drafts folder from **** (Apple are you listening?)

    We are using Mail 2.1.1 (752.3) and run a CommuniGate Pro Mail Server v4.3.12. As we are collaboratively working on our email, we are forced to rely on IMAP.
    Unfortunately Mail.app seems to have a strange misbehaviour in saving IMAP messages as drafts although they have been shipped.
    I sent about 25-30 emails a days, and my drafts folder keeps growing (crowded with mails which already have been sent). This is VERY annoying and renders the drafts folder almost useless.
    There is a suggestion to store the drafts locally instead of server-based, but that wouldn't allow us to share drafts across the office before sending them.
    The that there are at least 7 other discussions on the same topic (see links below), shows you that this is indeed an issue what Apple needs to address.

    I'm not trying to shoot the messenger, just trying to determine if what he reports is a reasonable basis for concluding a Mail bug is its cause. There are a number of reasons I am hesitant to do so, among them:
    1. There are few reports of similar behavior. Among those he mentions, few actually are similar beyond a few points of commonality, or lack enough detail to conclude anything about a common cause.
    2. There are a variety of potential causes for this sort of thing besides a Mail bug. Among them are corrupted files in the OS or application, interference from third party additions that change Mail's or the OS's behavior, & server-side problems, including mis-configuration, use of non-standard IMAP transactions, & reuse of message ID's before they are retired.
    3. Many of the reports of similar behavior say it is intermittent, changed suddenly, or is confined to one account.
    4. Prematurely deciding that the cause must be an Apple bug leads to ignoring troubleshooting procedures that could resolve it.
    As I said, it is possible this is the result of a bug, but it is historically more likely it is the result of something users can repair or correct without waiting for a fix that will never come.
    Just complaining may help, but not here. This is a user-to-user discussion forum, with an emphasis on interactive help with diagnosis & resolution of issues. The more specific users can be about the nature of & circumstances surrounding the symptoms & the steps they have taken to try to resolve them, the more likely it is that someone can help. Sometimes, that help is confirmation that a bug exists, but much more often it is a procedure that shows that the real problem is something else.

  • Help with deleting junk email

    Can anyone please help with a problem I'm having with icloud email. I have a number (not all) of messages in junk mail and no matter what I do I can't seem to delete them. I delete them, they are gone, but when I come back they are back again but any other messages I might have deleted at the same time are deleted.

    Open System Preferences > iCloud

    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync your Mail.

  • Trouble with deleting mail in Gmail

    Before I upgraded to iOS 5 last night, when I deleted an email in gmail using the mail app on my phone, it would move it into the trash.  From here I could delete it out of the trash, and it would be gone for good.  Since I've updated, when I move an email to the trash and delete it, it moves it to my All Mail Folder.  I don't want it to do this.  Even if I go delete it back out of the All Mail folder, it will move it into the trash until I delete it from the trash and it moves it back into the All Mail folder.  There seems to be no way to get rid of the message for good.  I want it to be deleted permanently.  I have the Archive mail setting off under the settings tab for mail, contacts and calendar.  Is anyone else having this issue or know of a fix???

    Since a Yahoo account can be created and accessed as a POP account only with the Mail.app on your Mac, it shouldn't matter if you delete and manually recreate the account with the Mail.app on your new Mac. This will not affect all received messages that remain on the server even if the account is deleted with the Mail.app on your other Mac, which I don't beleive it will. You can temporarily disable syncing with your MobileMe account on the other Mac before deleting and manually recreating the account with the Mail.app on your new Mac and then re-enable syncing with MobileMe on the other Mac after doing so.

  • Help with e-mailing a form

    Hi, i am new to the forum and I just put up a new wesite for

    am using Dreamweaver 8 and I need help with emailing a form.
    Here is the code of the form page and the script
    Can someone help me?

    The form needs to submit to a page that will have the email
    processing code
    on it. What you put there will depend on how you are sending
    the mail ..
    i.e. what server components are available to you on the
    server such as JMail
    or CFMail or PHPMail or ASPEMail .. etc. You already know
    what server model
    you are using and you should be able to find out what you
    have to work with
    on your host's web site.
    If this is not already an active web site with a server
    model, you can use
    something like Form Mail, a CGI script that will do that job

  • Mail - imap drafts folder not updating on server

    I have my mail setup to LEAVE any mail draft in the drafts folder on the server. I used 3 different mac book pros and my draft messages are only appearing on the system where I 'drafted' them. In the past this was working.
    All other foldrers are behaving as I would expect. How can I rectify this? Thanks.

    That is in fact what is going on - a version of the draft is stored locally on my laptop for example in DRAFTS and when I try to access the 'drafts' on another system, the draft is in some IMAP draft folder.
    Not exactly intutive but as long as they are stored that's what is important to me.

  • How can i unfreeze my mail?  DRAFT folder problem?

    I opened an email saved in DRAFTS, and now I can't close the email nor return to my email account.  I can scroll up and down in the email itself, but clicking on CLOSE or SEND doesn't do anything.  I'm locked out.

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can someone help with my Mail not working with my Microsoft Exchange server?

    I am trying to set up my Mail account. I am using the Microsoft Exchange server. I've been using Entourage, but wanted to switch to using the Mac's Mail. I used the same settings I had with Entourage, but with Mac Mail I'm getting this error: MFEWSErrorDomain error 56. From some of the other posts I saw, it seems as though no one has any answers, but I figured I'd ask anyway.

    There is no single cause of this problem and hence no single solution. There are several suggestions in this thread, if you haven't come across it, one of which might help:

  • Hi i need help with iCloud mailing plz help me!

    Try to delete your account from your device (Settings > iCloud) and then set it up again. This fixes the problem in most cases.

    "The Yahoo! IMAP server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” rejected the password for user "******""
    Why does this happen? I enter my Yahoo password correct and i click "Remember in Keychain"
    Wondering how i fix this. Thank you!
    <Email Edited By Host>

    If you haven't made any changes and suddenly the Mail program tells you a password is rejected, in most cases the password is just fine and there's nothing wrong with your computer. There's a little dance that goes on between your computer and the mail server when you check your mail and each step has a time limit set to it. If at any step time runs out the dance ends and Mail tells you there was a problem and in most cases the error message tells you that the password failed rather than reporting there was a time out error.
    There's a reason for this that only programmers would care about. In most cases if you ignore the error message and try again later your mail comes through. What's really crazy is that sometimes (and this happened to me with both iCloud and gmail earlier this week) you can't get mail with the Mail app but you can log in with Safari and get your mail just fine. That's nice because you can verify that you really do know your password but annoying because it makes you think something may be wrong with your computer.
