I am unable to delete junk emails to the trash?

I cannot get several junk emails to delete from my iPhone 4. Any ideas?

if they are work account emails, try from your work computer. Exchange emails are stored on a server your device communicates to as opposed to the device itself
if its not, try deleting and re-adding the acount.

Unable to delete an email from a Gmail account in Mail

I am unable to delete an email from my Gmail (IMAP) account within Mail on my MacBook. I get an error message that says there are no matches with the email. It does not show in Mail on my iMac or on my Gmail account online. I have rebuilt the mailbox, but don't know any other steps to try to fix this problem.
Does anyone know how to delete this email?
Thanks -

Thanks for the suggestions. I did not find the message on my Gmail Internet account. I went into Mail Preferences, and used the Advanced tab under my Gmail account to uncheck "Enable this account". The account folders disappeared. When I restarted Mail and enabled Gmail again, the email was initially gone, but a few minutes later, reappeared. I don't know anything else left to do except delete the account and recreate it If you think of anything else, please let me know.
Thanks -

Why in the world am I unable to delete multiple emails at once on my new iphone 4s

Why am I unable to delete multiple emails at once from my new iphone 4s. I could easily select all emails and delete them from my old blackberry.
The process of choosing one at a time and then deleting is crazy and very time consuming. Please help.......is there a hidden method or some add on I need?

I want to select all with one button and then select delete all with another button.
The iPhone currently cannot do that. The best you can do from the iPhone is Edit, select the emails to delete and then Delete.
Another option is to use webmail (browser) and use that interface to delete mail

Unable to delete aol emails

I am unable to delete any emails that come to my aol account.I get a "unable to move message, this message could not be moved to the mailbox trash." I am able to delete emails that come to my mac or gmail accounts. Any ideas why I am unable to delete aol messages?

In Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > (Your account name) > Advanced > Deleted Mailbox - set for the "On My iPhone" Trash for a POP account, or "On the Server" for an IMAP account. If it is an IMAP account, be sure the correct server mailbox is selected
or
Settings - Mail - Tap on AOL account - Tap on Advanced - Tap on SPAM so you get a check mark - Then tap on Trash on the very top so you get a check mark. Now go check AOL mail and attempt to delete.

Deleting junk emails

I keep deleting junk emails which date back to the beginning of April and selecting erase all deleted emails in all accounts, but they keep reappearing. What am I doing wrong?

Try re-indexing the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

How to search and delete an email from the mailbox

hi,
have a hybrid scenario, exchange 2013 and office 365
what command should I use to search and delete an email from the organization mailbox i.e. I do not want that email to be in any users inbox.
I have tried this command but it does not work, it says search-mailbox is not recognized as the name of the command let.
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery 'Subject:"Download this file"' -DeleteContent
kindly assist.
Kind Regards, Khuzema R.

Hi Khuzema
This can be accomplished by search-mailbox command
First you need to create a new role group
To Create – New-RoleGroup “Mailbox Import-Export Management” -Roles “Mailbox Import Export”
Then add the user to the group
To Add user – Add-RoleGroupMember “Mailbox Import-Export Management” -Member Administrator
Search the mailbox
get-mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -IgnoreDefaultScope | search-mailbox -SearchQuery ‘Subject:”virus infected”’ -LogOnly -TargetMailbox administrator -TargetFolder filter -LogLevel Full
Now we need to run the below command to search the infected emails and delete all of them in the whole organization
get-mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -IgnoreDefaultScope | search-mailbox -SearchQuery ‘Subject:”virus infected”’ -TargetMailbox administrator -TargetFolder filter -deletecontent -LogLevel Full
Also you can do a message tracking with the subject and delete them
Get-ExchangeServer | where {$_.isHubTransportServer -eq $true -or $_.isMailboxServer -eq $true} | Get-MessageTrackingLog -Messagesubject “Virus Infected” | Select-Object Timestamp,ServerHostname,ClientHostname,Source,EventId,Recipients
| Sort-Object -Property Timestamp
I have written a blog with regards to the same. You can always refer this which might mostly help you in your scenario

On my ipad mini, when I delete an email from the inbox (and it goes into Trash), it immediately deletes that email from the server (ATT/Yahoo). I've called support for both ATT and Apple and can't find a way to have the emails remain on the server.

On my iPad Mini, when I delete an email from the inbox (and it goes into Trash), it immediately deletes that email from the server (ATT/Yahoo). I've called support for both ATT and Apple and can't find a way to have the emails remain on the server.
My husband and I share an email address and if he misses a day checking email on his notebook, he doesn't receive the items that I have sent to Trash on my iPad Mini.
Appreciate suggestions.
[The curious thing is, if I "move" the deleted emails from Trash on my iPad Mini into the Inbox, I can go to my notebook, open my online email and they are back in my ATT/Yahoo Inbox.]

Is your Yahoo account set up as POP3 or IMAP?

I have accidentally deleted the trash bin in my mailbox and can no longer move any deleted mail into the trash. I thought I was removing all the emails from the trash but somehow managed to delete the bin instead. Does anyone know who to reinstate it?

You are running 10.6.8? If yes, I assume you have your install disks? As the trash bin is part of Mail app and that is an integral part of the OS, the only way I know to get it back is to reinstall the OS. You won't lose any files, just reinstall the OS over the top of the current system.

Delete an email from the pc, does not delete the email from the iPad.

Hi
When I Delete an email from the pc, does not delete the email from the iPad. I'm not able to find a setting to fix this. Does it mean I have to manually delete the emails from the iPad?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Thanks, I was told that my Yahoo account has to be setup on the Mac as a POP account. Can you please let me know what the difference is (in simple terms) between IMAP and POP?

Hi Detroitmade59,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Below is the section from the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7 which explains how to delete multiple messages in Mail:

Delete, move, or mark multiple messages. While viewing a list of messages, tap Edit. Select some messages, then choose an action. If you make a mistake, shake iPhone immediately to undo.
Happy New Year!
