HT201320 How to log out of mail

How can settings be set to sign in & out of email?

You can't, using the built in mail program.  Since the pad is designed as a single user device, once you get past the main passcode, the functions are open.
If you have an e mail account that you do not want others to see when they are playing around with your pad, simply turn the account off in settings, or delete it entirely, and access it using web mail.
(hoping for a change to this with a future iOS update, but you never know)

  • How to Log out of mail and come to the main screen

    I was on my yahoo mail using wi-fi. How do I log out and come back to the main mail screen where it just has a picture of yahoo mail, gmail, AOL etc..??
    Someone help.

    To do that, you need to go out of mail and into Settings --> Mail, select your yahoo account, and switch it OFF (slider at top of screen).
    When you next go into Mail, you'll be presented again with the setup screen with Y!Mail GMail .mac icons etc..

  • How to log out of mail on iPad

    Can I log out of my mail account
    on the iPad iOS6

    I think the reason that there isn't a way to login/out of an email account is because each individaul account can be enabled/disabled in the mail settings (settings / mail/contacts/calendars). You select an account and you can turn off that account there.
    I have several email accounts that I keep off but only enable once in a while to verify a registration somewhere.
    That is the closest thing you can ge to logging in/out for now.

  • How to log out of Mail?

    I set up mail on my iMac, so that it automatically retrieves emails from my aol mail account. Now, I realize that anybody else in my family using the computer will have access to my email.
    How do I undo or delete this? I no longer want my iMac to automatically download my AOL emails for everyone to read.
    Please help, as my privacy is at risk!
    Thanks.

    You could disable automatic email retrieval in your mail preferences, but don't think that would accomplish your goal of protecting your privacy. Rather, why not create new accounts for each user on the Mac, enable fast-user-switching, and require passwords to enter another user's account. Go to system preferences > accounts > '+' to create a new user account.

  • How can i log out of mail?

    Is there really no way to log out of Mail on a Macbook Pro? I can quit Mail but when I click to icon I'm straight back into my inbox. This means that unless I want everyone in the house to potentially be able to see my emails, I have to logout of my laptop every time I go out? This is crazy. How can I even plan a secret birthday present for my partner if my inbox is on display when he walks past the computer?

    I didn't mean to sound rude. I do get that if I sign in i see my mail, and if someone else signs in their see their mail. But the logic is that once you've instigated Mail on your macbook, you are compelled for ever more to sign OUT of your account each time you leave the laptop, if you want you want your email to be private. Until now, I have never signed in or out of my user account - we just all browse using the same account (and log in and out of our own facebook and bank accounts etc) because there is nothing private associated with the account. But now, I've launched the Mail app and everyone has to fiddle around signing in and out each time. It's not that I have anything very secret but I'd still like to know the email exchanges I have with friends are private.
    What I'm doing now - this for the benefit of those who come after who have made the same error - is create a new user account for myself and I'm transferring all files and preferences across. And then I just won't use the other account again.
    So that is all a bit insane.

  • My hot spots dont work & how do i log out of mail

    hi i am struggeling with my new macbook pro, my hot spots are not working. and how do i log out or delete my email account from mail ?

    Why do you need to "log out" "delete" your email account?
    If you don't want to receive emails just quit Mail.
    If you want to delete your account:
    Mail>Preferences>Accounts. Uncheck 'enable this account'

  • How to log out of Yahoo Mail???

    I just got my new Nokia C6 and I with one touch I can read the Inbox of my Yahoo-account. And I just realised that if I can do that, someone else who gets my phone in his/her hands can read my personal mail and more.
    How do I log out of my Yahoo-mail?

    I had the same problem so rather than going to my e-mail on the phone I went in to the web and put in yahoo.com, went to my email from there signed in and it also gives you the sign out option. I then saved the e-mail to my bookmarks, just means if I want to go to my mail I go web from the home screen and then click on the wee arrow's on the bottom right of the screen which brings up options with bookmarks.
    Hope this helps
