I deleted my mail program

i deleted my mail program and my internet explorer program also. how do i get the program back. please help me!

To get the Mail application back, use Pacifist to extract it from the Mac OS X 10.28 combo updater. To restore Internet Explorer, move the item /Library/Receipts/InternetExplorer522.pkg to the desktop if present, and then use the Software Update pane of System Preferences to check for updates. If the receipt isn't present, don't move anything before running Software Update.

Is there a way to delete the mail program or cancel so it doesn't open automatically

The Apple mail program pops up in the dock and opens automatically. As I use other mail programs this pop up is annoying and there must be a way to eliminate or cancel soot doesnot continually pop up?
I've tried to hide it but it comes back after awhile. It also is open in background as it always seems to stop shutdowns and restarts.

You may have Mail.app as one of your log-in items - check Users & Groups and your user name to see if it is a log-in item.
The only other reason that the app would automatically launch is that you have it open when you restart or shutdown and have 'reopen windows..." ticked when you shutdown or restart.

Deleted apple mail program, please help!

I deleted mail, and can't seem to find it within the 'install bundled software' on the discs which came with the computer (mac os x install discs 1 & 2). How can I go about reinstalling the program? Please Help...

Is that the Install Disk?

Using iPad mail program I have a draft of an email. I attempted to "cancel" and "delete draft" but it is still on my screen even after shutting down and restarting. How do I exit so that I can use other mail functions?

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.

How can I empty anApple e-mail program mailbox. I have thousands of message I wish to delete, but am unable to do so. Any suggestions?

How can I empty an Apple e-mail program mailbox. I have thousands of message I wish to delete, but am unable to do so. I open the e-mails on my laptop, so I don't usually need to open them on the iMac. Whenever I use select all, and the move to trash, they always seem to reappear again. Prospectively, I know I can change the e-mail settings in preferences, but that doesn't help get rid of what is already there. Any suggestions?

You mention 2 computers. Not sure how one relates to the other. Are the messages on one and not the other?
Are they in the Inbox, or another local folder you created? If a local folder, delete the folder.
Do you have anything used to sync messages between the 2 computers? If so, disable it.
Select the messages and choose Delete instead of moving to the trash.
If that doesn't work, rebuild the mailbox, quit Mail and reopen and try again.
If all fails, delete the account from the computer. Since it is POP, when you re-add the account, there won't be any messages to download.

How to fix deleting issues in Mail program

I have a MacBook Air (only a year old) and I like to use the mail program that came on the computer ( since it syncs with my phone ) However when I delelte messages they re-appear in the box I deleted them from. Does any one know how to fix this issue with out having to use another App, or directly going to Gmail.com?
Thank you.

I use Gmail. When I set it up, I just typed in my email address and went at it. I haven't changed any settings. It use to work fine, then it started acting up. I have tried other email apps, but I don't like that (too hard to file away saved emails, or just plain set up awkard)

Deleting old email addresses so they no longer pop up in MAIL program

Hello,
I'm running the Apple Mail program, Version 2.1.3, on an iMac, with operating system version 10.4.11.
When I compose an email using Mail, and a type the first few letters of a person's name, the program automatically completes the email address for me for that person. However, some email addresses for my friends have changed, and I have entered their new addresses into the Address Book program; however, the old email address has not gone away, and continues to pop up in that line, along with the new address, too, as options of addresses to send to.
How do I permanently delete someone's old email address, so that it no longer pops up in the Mail program?
Thank you,
George

gg3, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Open the Address Book. In the Name column, are there two entries for the person's name - one showing the old address & another showing the new address? If so delete the old Name/address.
If there is only one name entry, click once on the Name to highlight, then click on Edit (at bottom of window). Then a window opens for that person. Go to the "home" line & click on the arrows. Are more than one email address listed? If so, delete the old address.
 Cheers, Tom

After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program?

After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program? Also, mail is sometimes slow to load in mornings on my iMac after it has appeared on my iPhone. I temporarily solved that by shutting down and reopening mail two or three times.

I have the same problem on my iMac. Most of what it puts in the "junk folder" is junk. I delete all of the messages in the folder and they're back the next time I check it. I have messages in that folder that have were received 2 months ago! I'm thinking of unchecking "junk folder" in preferences. Very frustrating.

My mail program does not update when I delete emails in my other email programs (i.e. it still shows messages in my mail inbox when I've deleted them). I think this started with Maverick? Any solutions?

one is gmail, one is a university email and they are both IMAP accounts (not that I know what that means)....

Can i delete emails in mail without having to delete them in the original mail program.

I wish I did not need to use my original Llive account to organize and delete emails, etc. I was hoping just to start using Mail and editing everything from the Apple mail program instead of having to do it in both Mail and in Live. Otherwise, it accumalates a lot of email in both places. It is supposed to make it easier so I do not have to do everything twice.

Option 1.
In Mail Preferences, select Advanced tab for your Mail Account and check the "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message" option. This will delete all your messages from Live.
This selection will only remove new mail (i.e. mail received after you make this selection)
Option 2.
Right click on your Mail Account in the Viewer Window and select "Get Account Info". This will allow you to select and delete messages from Server you don't want and keep the ones you do.
This is no different from going to the web interface and deleting the mail from there.
If the OP wants to keep the webmail and mac mail in sync then Live is the wrong system, an iMap or Exchange system is needed.

Mail keeps resetting when I close it. I delete an account and tell my notes not to show in the mailbox but each time I close the mail program or restart the computer the mail account comes back and the preferances reset.

I have deleted preferances. I deleted the account using the - sign in system preferances. I make the account inactive, close mail and relaunch and it is active. I have using the email and installed a new ssd system drive. I was able to change some of the mail program settings but then it just quit letting me change and save them. When I delete it in the mail program, it asks it I want to remove it for good, I say yes.

HT2500 How do you delete bulk mail folder in Mail program?

In my Mail program on my MacBook Air there is a Bulk Mail Folder usually full of annoying junk mail. How do I eliminate this folder so I don't get Bulk mail anymore?

Hi Macmonter,
i have seen the complete post here and realised that your answer should have been selected as most useful, unfortunately Charlie7 didn't tried it and hence it was ignored. I still appreciate your experiemnt.
I am pretty new to this community thing, but i did a lot of experiments with Mail application and hence i m writing this post specifically which might be helpful to others. I use Yahoo Mail (only) for all online services like Facebook, G+, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. all possible. It's my central ID now and i cant change it any more. Going online and checking yahoo mail is sometimes very resource taking hence i decided to use mail client like Mail.app. Let me tell you that i personally tried all other mail apps including thunderbird but noticed one very imp thing that when u use Mail.app then your mails 7 their attachments are automatically indexed by Mac OS which is very important feature and when you search something then it searches within your mail also, this is really awesome. This will not happen if u use thunderbird or any other mail client. Also you get to use free Cloud with auto sync. Now this also tells you that I am stuck with 2 (idiotic) giants : Yahoo & Mac OSX Mail.
The thing is, Yahoo now uses IMAP (prior it was POP). IMAP has many advantages over POP for sure. Basically when you use multiple devices, filters and folders and want all those things in Sync. Google for more comparison, but let me tell you IMAP is really good. Now the problem is, Yahoo has powerful spam engine but it calls it 'Bulk Mail'. Apple also has powerful Spam Engine but they call it 'Junk'. So some how you have make apple understand that they are the same words, which is suggested by Mr. Macmonter which is really a great & very useful thing. If you mark 'Bulk Mail' folder as 'Use As Junk' then you are done. All messages from Bulk folder will be routed to Junk and you will see common Junk Folder.
I know there are people who dont want to see that Junk at all! And for that this is smart trick :
Configure your Yahoo as IMAP (which is default). Clear all messages from online Bulk Mail folder using browser login. Then Sync so all your online folders are downloaded if any and all your mails. Basically this is for people who has created online filters and folders (i have 12 folders)
Once your account is in Sync, disconnect. Export all your folders one by one slowly. It takes times if you have many mails and attachments. Once this is done successfully, DELETE this account!
Now create Yahoo POP account. Apple dont allow you to do this now, but there is trick. You will have to give wrong user-pass and shift to manual settings and there you can give correct server config which should be POP settings of Yahoo. And take this account online.
In online Yahoo Mail, set 'Do not download spam' under POP and Forwarders. So this will only start downloading Inbox messages. Remember POP dont see any other folders, hence we removed all filters and downloaded all folders. IT will download all mails coming to Inbox filtering Spam. So you never see spam. If you want to see some then you can go online periodically and check manually.
Now import your recently exported folders in this account and create filters and rules in Mail.app for routing of incoming messages for particular messages.
This gives you all old messages, pure inbox from yahoo, 2 way spam filter yahoo & Mac, and local routing of messages with index, smart folders and cloud! Only thing you dont get here is Sync with multiple devices if you have iMac, Air & iPhone. But there i suggest you to keep one of them as center for downloads and others should keep just 15days old copy. This will also save your resources!
Enjoy..

Apple Mail program will not delete messages

I have a new MacBook Pro Retina. In the Apple Mail program, I am having trouble deleting some messages from my work email (uses Microsoft Exchange). When I login online to my email account, I see certain messages are deleted. On my MacBook, however, they still show up in my inbox. When I delete them, or right click and move to trash, an error message pops up that says they cannot be moved to trash. This is odd, because on the server they appear already to be in the trash.
I have tried restarting, closing and opening Mail, etc. By the way, my older work computer on which I also access the account via Apple Mail works seemlessly.
Ideas?

Ah Hah! Though I tried searching for a similar thread, I could not find one until I posted the message and the "More Like This" box on the right led me to similar issues.
I did end up highlighting the box, and going to "Mailbox" -> "Rebuild" which fixed the problem. I hope it does not occur again.

How can I delete more than one Email (but not ALL) at once in the new Mail program?

In OS X 10.7 it was possible to just right click an email and then scroll down or up to delete i.e. 10 Emails at once. But in OS X 10.8 this doesn't work anymore. I have to delete one mail after the other which is exhausting after a while and with a lot of emails! But I don't want to delete all of them (would be too easy with CTRL-A and then Return) just a few. Any ideas? I didn't find it out yet and I want it the easy Mac-Way and not the complicated Windows-way
Thanks for any inout on that!!

You can now double-click and drag down the list of emails to select multiple, consecutive messages to delete.
For non-consecutive messages, command-click on the ones you want to delete.
