HTC rhyme automatically deletes emails in my inbox after 3 days...

When I get emails in my inboxes and read them and don't delete them, I intend to keep them until I want to delete them. However, all emails automatically get deleted after 3 days. I've looked through all the settings and I can't figure out how to fix it so that only I can delete them-they can't be automatically deleted. Does someone know how to fix this?? Thanks in advance!

We need more information from you on what you are using.  What type of email account (Outlook, GMail, Yahoo, etc.) is it that you have questions about?  Which email app are you using to check your email?  It doesn't sound like you are using an app from the Play Store, so I will answer assuming that you are using stock apps (ones that came on the phone out of the box).  I don't have the Rhyme, but I have other HTC phones.
For an Exchange account, go into the email app>menu>settings>sync, send & receive>sync settings>download past email.  This defaults to 3 days.  You can change it to time periods varying from 1-30 days and "All", which is what it sounds like you would prefer.
For GMail, go into the GMail app>menu>settings>select your email address>data usage>days of mail to sync and choose the number of days that you want to sync.
The settings will depend on your answers to the questions in my first paragraph.  Let us know if you have more questions or are using a different type of email on your phone.

  • Automatically delete emails in Mail for OS X

    I currently have Mail set up so that it automatically archives emails received beyond a certain date to my Time Capsule. However, I then have to go into my inbox and delete the ones that I no longer need.
    As such, is there any way of setting up Mail to automatically delete emails in my inbox, preferably a couple of days after my archive schedule so that they're not deleted before they can be archived! I note in Preferences that there is an option for Trash and Sent, but not the Inbox.
    Cheers.

    sure. see my post here

    one change to this link. Cronnix does not seem to be avalaible any more. you can make a launch daemon to periodically run the script using Lingon. or you can use automator to make an ical plugin out of it and run it periodically using ical.

  • I have iphone 5c.  Having email problem.  Does not delete emails showing in inbox from date 8/27 thru 9/23.   When deleted, these same emails repopulate in inbox.  What is going wrong?  How do I fix the problem?

    Ihave iphone5c.  Does not permanently delete emails showing in inbox.  When they are move to Trash then inbox at first shows empty.  However if you leave Mailbox and return then all the emails that were previously deleted and now repopulated in Inbox.  I have tried various things like marking them "read" before deleting, then moving them to Trash, and they still return.  What is going wrong and how do I fix the problem?

    What your describing sounds lot like Nortons anti virus, but other do it to.
    Multiple copies of the same email over and over are almost always anti virus incoming mail scanning. Turn off scanning and the problem goes away turn it back on and it resumes.
    My guess is that your filter issues, and search problems are also related to this uniquitous and most ignored security tool that messes up far more than it should..
    Deleting the index
    I assume you mean the global-messages-db.sqlite. if you don't close Thunderbird and delete it now. Searches will be incomplete until it rebuilds and the time to do that will have a lot to do with how much mail there is and how busy the computer is.
    Now create an exclusion in your anti virus program for the Thunderbird profile folders. My guess is it is trying to scan the files in your profile every time Thunderbird tries to open them and generally turning things into a tug of war, which Thunderbird looses as it just does not wait around if files are locked. It expects exclusive access to it's files immediately, not in 10 minutes when the anti virus has done it's thing. So things get added to the index but not removed. Mails don't move as the destination or source file is "in use" etc.

  • After adding a new account, I can't delete emails from the inbox of this account.

    I just added a sixth account to my Thunderbird installation. There was no problem adding the account and I can send and receive emails without problem. However, I cannot delete emails from the inbox. What should I do to correct this?

    It is a POP account.
    I just backed up the profile.
    I don't know the size of the inbox nor how to see what it is nor change it. However, the inbox for this account is currently empty. (Yes, I know this post is about not being able to delete emails from the inbox, so how can it be empty? In my research I found a post of someone with the same problem who discovered he could move emails from the inbox to another folder and then delete that folder (not the individual mails in the folder, but only the entire folder). That is how I emptied the inbox, but it is a very cumbersome work around that I shouldn't have to do.

  • Deleted emails reappear in inbox on iPad and iPhone even in airplane mode

    Whenever I delete either read or unread emails from my inbox on both iPad and iPhone 4 they re-appear in the inbox between 30 seconds and 1 minute later. I've seen other posts suggesting this might be due to the fact that I'm leaving my mails on the server so I switched my iPad to Airplane mode so that it couldn't check the server, I then deleted an email and sure enough 30 secs later it re-appeared.
    Does anybody have a fix?

    ok.

  • Mac Mail keeps moving deleted emails back into inbox

    How to stop Mail from moving deleted messages back to inbox?

    I've had the same problem for several months. I can't archive emails to the archive folder. They keep moving back into the inbox. I have to keep moving them several times before they stay put.

  • Deleted emails sent to INBOX

    I have created a subfolder called "Deleted" in my account and have selected it to hold deleted messages with Tools\Account Settings\Server Settings - When I delete a message move it to this folder. I have also selected Empty Deleted folder on exit .
    However, deleted files are moved to an account subfolder called INBOX that I did not create and cannot delete. This folder is emptied on exit, so the action is correct but in the wrong location.
    If there is logic behind this, it eludes me.

    This sounds like you have not got the correct folders selected.
    You are displaying Two 'Deleted' folders and a 'Trash' folder. however, in webmail there is 'Deleted Items' (this is the server folder for trash/deleted emails) and ''Deleted' (the one you created)
    IMAP mail accounts are designed to see and use folders that are on the server.
    You subscribe to see those folders.
    right click on mail account Inbox and select 'Subscribe'.
    You should be able to subscribe to see :
    'Inbox', 'Sent', 'Deleted Items', 'Junk'.
    I'm surprised there isn't a Drafts folder, so maybe the server does not have one available. no worries we'll sort that out later.
    Let's try to get all the correct folders working as expected.
    Unsubscribe from seeing the 'Deleted' folder which you created.
    Then access webmail account and delete the 'Deleted' folder you created.
    In Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the imap mail account
    Click on 'Advanced' button
    Select : 'show only subscribed folders'
    click on Ok
    Clickon OK to save settings.
    Check the Folder Pane.
    It should now only show subscribed folders.
    Go back into Account Settings > Server Settings
    When I delete a message
    Select: 'move it to this folder
    There should be a 'Deleted Items' folder to select in the drop down selection.
    Select: 'Clean up(expunge) Inbox on exit'
    Click on 'Copies & Folders' for the imap mail account.
    when sending messages
    Select: Place a copy in
    Select: 'Other' and select the Sent folder on the imap mail account.
    For Drafts and Templates do the same .
    Select : 'Other' and the Drafts folder on imap mail account
    Select : 'Other' and the Templates folder on imap mail account
    Tell me if these (drafts and Templates) options are not available.
    Click on 'Junk Settings' for imap mail account
    Select : 'Other' and the Junk folder on imap mail account
    click on OK
    Then please show me a copy of the Folder Pane.

  • Deleted emails returning to Inbox & no emails in Trash

    I have had this issue for a while now.  I am using a Macbook Pro with Retina and the Yosemite OS, purchased in 5/2014.
    After I delete several emails I often click out of my Inbox and click into one of my email subfolders or Trash or Junk mail...It doesn't matter where I click into.
    I then return to my Inbox and all of the emails I just spent a good amount of time deleting have returned to my Inbox.
    So a big time waster to have to go through and deleted all of these previously deleted emails.
    What is the fix for this issue?
    Secondly, I have set my email preferences to "Permanently erase deleted messages to Never", yet my Trash folder is empty.  There should be many emails in my Trash at this time.
    Third, emails that I have read and so are no longer bolded in my Inbox have disappeared.  Where to?  I don't know.
    What can I do about these three issues?
    Overall, it really seems that my email is unstable using the Macbook Pro.  Quite frustrating.

    Hi Eric, at this stage it is only happening on the mac with snow leopard, but the maverick mac has had its issues with other weird faults that myself and the other party's husband have nutted out some fixes for. I believe the snow leopard mac was doing a combo of dragging mail and right click move to folders etc to sort her mail out when this problem was recurring. I did look thru the support section here and one of the fixes was just to do the right click method which i suggested and so far all the mail that had played up originally are now staying in the folders they are supposed to be. I would like to say this fixed it but i will wait a few days first, seeing that there is also the spinning wheel that takes forever for this particular account to fetch and send mail that was not happening before i don't believe i am out of the woods next. Some extra info...on the problem computer there are 6 gmail accounts running thru macmail and all are imap enabled and generally have been trouble free, the amount of mail in the mail folder is staggering around 65gig plus which my other half protects with a passion ( don't suggest having a cleanup, it would be easier to take on a charging elephant)
    Some of the other things i am contemplating are..... deleting the mailplist, deleting and reinstalling the problem email acc and also a fix i found last night that involves "delete all the files in the following folder: ~/Library/Mail/[email protected]/.OfflineCache" , not necessarily in that order. It is nice to be able to compose this at a sensible hour of the day not 1.30am like last night with a semi deranged wife wanting instant answers. I hope Eric this gives you enough info to hopefully point me in the right direction.
    cheers Andy

  • Lumia 928 Automatically deletes email

    My emails are automatically deleted from my Lumia 928 as soon as they are accessed on my desktop computer. I have Outlook 2007. Previously had a Blackberry and never had any email issues with in. None of the Outlook settings have been changed since I got the new phone.
    I'm guessing this is a settings issue but have been unable to figure it out. Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this for me.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    that's an outlook issue, your outlook deletes messages from server once it downloads the messages, and when your lumia syncs with server, they are also deleted from the phone. so you should better check your outlook settings and find the tick to keep the downloaded messages on server.

  • How to stop mailbox from automatically deleting email in trash

    I would like to be able to store deleted emails indefinitely until I empty the trash mailbox. Even though I check "never" in the mailbox behavior, it only keeps the messages for 30 days.

    To add to what Glenn has said, note that I have done exactly what you want to do in Mail for some time without seeing messages older than 30 days get deleted.  So I think you've got something else that's deleting those messages.
    One other note: it's very easy to accidentally empty the trash and lose all those messages.  So I would recommend cleaning out the trash periodically and moving those messages to some kind of archival mailbox(es).  I keep a series of "On My Mac" mailboxes called "Trash 2012," "Trash 2011," "Trash 2010," etc, and I periodically move all messages from the trash into the appropriate mailbox.
