How do I permanently delete email messages from my Mail inbox?

Ever since I migrated from Mobile Me to iCloud, I can't seem to delete messages from my MacBook Mail inbox. They just reappear seconds later. What do I need to do to delete them permanently? I've tried looking in the settings, preferences, accounts, etc. I've also made sure to select the "hide deleted messages" from the View tab. Please help! I am sure that there is a simple solution. They are also staying on my iPhone and iPad.

Settings > General > Spotlight Search > Uncheck Messages
It's that or Restore the device as New with iTunes
Hope that helps

I cannot delete the messages from my mailbox

I cannot delete any messages from my mailboxes. Please help

If you are using the native Apple email app you should be able to swipe to the left and delete. If you can't then remove and reinstall the email account. If that does work
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Can't delete email messages from some folders in Mail

I CAN delete email messages from header Folder "MAILBOXES" (drafts, sent, trash); however, there's another folder header below called "ON MY MAC", where I save various emails by dragging them to a subfolder, and when I try to delete these, I get this message:
"The message '(subject of email)' could not be moved to the mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' The destination mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' does not allow messages to be moved to it."
The only way to delete from this folder is to hold Control, select from the dropdown Move to, then Trash, and then one of three sub-trash folders (the one that has my email address) -- this is a pain to do.
Mail is just not working properly any more (I just added 2 other posts - one about crashing, another about all my Fonts missing)
thank you in advance!

Colin,
Have you checked Mail>Window>Previous Recipients for the old address? If not, attempt to "Remove From List" at that location and let us know what happens.

Deleting email messages from server and device

I had to wipe my 8830 due to a major sync problem but I no longer have the option to delete from the server when I delete email messages. I checked the user's guide and throughout my device. Where do I find this setting please?

Ok, here is the Knowledge Base article relating to your need.
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB13509
From your MESSAGES folder > Menu > Options > Email Reconciliation > Message Services.
If those settings are not present on your device... you probably have some Service Book problems (as in not present or corrupt).
Do this: First, look at Options > Advanced > Servcie Books and delete ALL service books releated to any email account.
Then, with the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot
Then do this:
1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
2. Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site.

Cannot fully delete email messages from phone

using the mail app on my 6120c (S60 3rd ed) I can retrieve my Gmail email (and send also) but I cannot erase the downloaded messages from my phone. Can anyone tell me how to do this? thanks!

Also remember that when selecting "phone and server" one needs to connect to the server to refresh it.
Doing the latter will ensure the mail is deleted from the server and that it does not appear in the phones mailbox!

Deleting email messages from server

I have set my (POP3) mail box to delete messages from its server immediately on download. But messages are not being deleted from the server. Any ideas as to why this should be?

How do I stop deleted email messages from being removed?

I have an iMac running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 and an iPhone 5. I get my email from hotmail using IMAP protocol. When I delete an email, I want it to stay in the "deleted" folder forever or until I decided to manually remove it. However, for some reason they only stay in the deleted folder for a week.
My mailbox behavior preference is set to NEVER permanently erase deleted messages. Why do the deleted message only stay for a week and how can I change this to keep them permanently?

Actually this helped on the phone but the emails on my iMac are still only staying around for one week. In prferences, it is checked to NEVER removed deleted messages from trash. What else can be wrong???

Cannot Delete Email Messages after Update

After installing the newest OS update I cannot delete my email messages using the delete keyboard button or using the onscreen options. The delete screen does open up but the delete option is greyed out. I am able to delete messages by using select more and then delete.
Solved!

I have the same problem affecting 3 different email accounts on my q10, one of which is a corporate account requiring IT support to reinstall. This solution is not practical for me. Any better ideas? I knew I shouldn't have done the upgrade. Another reason to regret not switching to an iPhone!

Cannot delete email messages

For no reason at all my BB Curve will not allow me to delete prior messages..and all messages are starred??
This started about 2 days ago...Any ideas..I have powered it down and restarted ..but still no joy!

WOW what big font! Sounds like shouting.
Please turn it down a bit. Welcome anyways.
Mine does exactly the same withgmail but this fixes it
The Blackberry is designed to be reset by removing the battery whilst the device is powered-on. Leave the battery out for a minute or 2.
See if that resolves the problem.

i think mac mail has erased the from hotmail server after placing them in the mac mail.
i need emails back on hotmail server for access to old emails when working out and about with ipad.
I do not know if you can unfortunately, having deleted them from the POP server and as Hotmail does not offer an iMap or Exchange solution for OSX they may be 'marooned'
I will search around and see if I can find a solution.
But before anything else happens backup your mail (Mailbox Menu>Export Mailbox) and save the file somewhere you can find it, you probably don't need to hear this but you should be (have been) backing up regularly, for this and many other reasons.
I'll post back if I can find a solution to the issue.

After automatic update of the latest beta version, I cannot download email messages from my email server, CalPoly. CAUSED by ESET?

When I booted I was asked a question whether I should allow connections to my network. It seemed strange, but I fell for it and allowed. Upon reflection, it was probably a phishing expedition that wrecked my ability to download messages and possibly inserted a trojan horse. I am running a MacPro with Mountain Lion OSX. I have very good protection software.
I can obtain messages on my iPhone, so it is not a provider problem.
Help!!

In that case your days of email clients are also probably coming to a close.
Less and Less are the ports and protocols being considered by AV companies and others as everyone uses web mail. Like you, I use ESET and have had no problems with the NOD32 anti virus product. But I have heard some rather sad tales about the Suite being overly protective. In this day of ubiquitous firewalls in AV products (In my opinion a very bad thing) Only Microsoft products can be expected to work out of the box as the market leading office software vendor. The anti virus vendors firewalls +Anti virus products generally account for about 95% of mail collection issues. With incorrect settings making up about 2 or 3 percent of the remainder. Real Thunderbird bugs do exist, but are only a very tiny part of the total.

HT1277 I cannot delete certain messages from mail. The message made 5 copies of the same message and now mail won't quit unless forced

Mark this discussion as a Question - this encourages people to answer for points and helps you track answers.

Next thing to try. Quit Mail, go to the Mail folder in your home Library (your Library may not be visible by default, but it's there; let us know if you have trouble finding it), and search in that folder for a file called Envelope Index. Delete that file and restart Mail; it will be forced to create a new one from scratch, which may clear up the problem.
