I have deleted a few thousand emails (with big attachments), but my mail storage hasn't decreased significantly. Help!

I have deleted a load of messages from my sent (about 3,000) and also deleted folders with big email files in them. I started off with 3GB of mail storage and now i am only 2.9GB when i know i have deleted at least 2GB. Not sure why this has happened - are they sitting somewhere on the Cloud taht i can't see?
Cheers

Did you actually empty the Trash? (On the iCloud website click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose 'Emtpy Trash'). The emails won't be deleted until you do this.

  • Can't receive email with big attachments

    My nephew has sent me an email, to <<[email protected]>> with a number of very large photo attachments. I'm on vacation and trying to retrieve my email over a slow broadband connection at the local public library. My Mail is stuck trying to download my nephew's email, and won't download anything else. I can see my mail on Mac.com,, but I would rather use my Mail software. I hope that when I return home, my broadband connection will be capacious enough to download this email, but I'm not sure. Any suggestions would be really welcome. Thanks, John Vialet

    Well, I have the same problem. I tried to delete the specific account and redo it - but the ** email was still there. I've gone to the webmail site for the account, and deleted it there. It's deleted from my laptop, but keeps coming back on my iPhone. So, my iPhone is set to show 25 emails, but I don't understand what you mean by "send yourself 25 messages". Sounds like your solution works, and I'd sure like to try it. Looks like Apple needs to come up with an easier solution too. Thanks.

  • Sending email with Entourage worked, but Apple Mail fails

    I want to migrate from Entourage to Apple Mail. However sending emails using the smtp of my hosted website, fails every time.
    I use the same SMTP settings as configured in Entourage, but the connection manager cannot connect to these smtp servers.
    When I setup a gmail account, these smtp settings do work, so this is a strange problem.
    In the SMTP configuration I have indicated that no SSL must be used and authentication is by Username/Password. Also the default port must be used, so this should be easy.
    Does anyone recognise this problem and help me out?
    Thanks in advance.

    23circles:
    I would like to find a way to only have the gmail inbox but still send from any three of her accounts.
    You can do it this way:
    Set up only one account. The one from which you want to receive mail.
    In Mail > Preferences > Accounts > +gmail acct+ > Email Address insert the other email addresses, separating each with a comma and single space.
    Only the GMail account will receive incoming Mail. However, when you want to send from another address, in the From dropdown menu toggle the address from which you wish to send mail.
    You will, of course, delete the other accounts you have created to avoid getting incoming messages.

    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

  • Can't delete email with large attachments

    Received two email with large attachments (photos in format that iphone doesn't recognize). Now can't delete or move to trash these two email. They just return to inbox and mail freezes, goes black, or returns to home screen. Clearing out all other mail in trash doesn't help. Reset doesn't help. I can still receive new email to my inbox and delete those just fine, but these two large email with attachments are stuck in my inbox.

    I just installed the Lion operating system, basically to upgrade my iPhone. I didn't realize that my Microsoft Office 2004 application would no longer work. I have been using Word for my writing and I receive most of my emails with Word attachments. I have been using Apple products for years, always touting their reliability and customer service. I am not a techie, I just want to be able to do what I do on the computer and Apple always fulfilled my needs. Now I am told because of some operating system gobbledygook, I have to go out and purchase new software to use Word. This is despicable. I see no particular benefit to using Lion, but I do see a lot of detriments. Apple now seems to have turned into Microsoft, making software obsolete so they can make more money and to **** with the customer. You can be sure that my next computer will be a PC. I have completely lost confidence in Apple.

    I seem to never tire of saying this. It was for Apple when they first announced 10.7 to disclose this. Yes, it was widely reported -- or rather, rumored -- but not by Apple. And many people who have gotten caught by this assumed that Apple itself would have told them beforehand about the loss of this very important feature which they had come to rely on. As far as I know, not even in fine print, does this appear anywhere on the Lion announcement or any of its links.
    I am not saying Apple had to continue Rosetta in Lion, or forever, just that if it was going to be dropped, it should have been made known.
    As relative "insiders" we should not forget that many people don't have the time, habit or interest to do this kind of research. I think it is a breach of trust that Apple has never directly made this announcement or given people the opportunity to decide beforehand if giving up their PPC apps for a new OS is a worthwhile tradeoff.

  • My yahoo email account is not accepting emails with picture attachments. The Internet provider says it is yahoo. Yahoo had nothing to offer.  Do I have to adjust settings on the iPad?

    My yahoo account is not accepting emails with picture attachments. Other wifi features are working. Other iPad and iPhone devises using this wireless router are accepting photo attachments. How do I have to configure my ipad2 to accept photo attachments on it?

    This did not help, thanks for the suggestion but my settings match this description on both devices and no result.

  • Can't send emails with picture attachments

    All of a sudden, I can't sent emails with picture attachments. I last tried this a few weeks ago and it worked, now it doesn't.
    I have tried a battery pull while the phone is on, registered on the network again and had the service books resent and nothing works.
    Anyone else have this problem or have any ideas of how to fix it?

    Can you please provide more information? Are you getting any error message when attaching or sending the pictures? Are you able to send other types of attachments? Is this happening for all email accounts on your BlackBerry?

  • Can´t send emails with pdf attachments - why?

    Since i moved all my accounts to my new airbook (OS X 10.8.2) everything works fine BUT i am not able to send emails with pdf attachments.I have an exchange and a mac.account - but they both won`t work.
    The emails stay put in the local ausgang? exit box and won`t move away unless i delete them.
    i checked the accounts, the activity - all says it works fine - but it doesn`t!
    Maybe in the *deep* of my mac is one thing that says no pdf - but where can i find it?
    I appreciate every helpful hint :-)
    greetings

    it tries to send the email for about five minutes and than gives the message *server doesn't work* you want to try another? repeat? or later?
    when i change the server e.g. from exchange to mac - tries again and without further notice i find the message in the outbox - even when i click that one and *send* again - nothing changes......
    I already tried to name the attachments in.pdf - i also change the pdf to jpeg - nothing works - all emails i write after that go immediately to the outbox - so when i want to send messages at all i need to delete the ones with the attachment or send the other ones manually
    Please notice in the activity window there is a lot of traffic :-) but it doesn`t help
    i even closed all other programmes like excel,safari and stuff - but still
    and i still have al lot of free GB on my airbook....
    any idea????

  • Emails with large attachments failing to download.

    I have a problem downloading emails with large attachments (6500KB plus) in Incredimail which I believe is a McAfee NetProtect Plus conflict. When downloading Incredimail shows "RECEIVING", number of emails and the percentage downloaded. With large files it will hang flashing RECEIVING but not increasing the percentage. Task manager shows Incredimail using lots of CPU and also McAfee coming in and out but no traffic on the network.
    The only way to stop this is to cancel receiving and try again. Sometimes this clears it, after two or three attempts. Sometime I have to log onto BT Yahoo mail and delete the large attachment. A side result is that I get emails duplicated because they are still on the host when I cancel and are thus downloaded again. If I boot in safe mode and just start Incredimail then everything downloads in seconds, so I am convinced that it is McAfee scanning that is causing the problem.
    Any suggestions please?

    You are not alone experiencing problems downloading attachments to MS Outlook etc see:-
    Problem with large email downloads in Outlook Expr... 
    I have just been told by the helpdesk there is a 10MB limit, so you should not have a problem.
    Duplicate e-mails are due to session not completing. I have had this problem as well.

  • I am trying to connect to my Wifi Network. It is a Galaxy Nexus. I am trying to connect to this Hotspot. I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason with this computer I cannot connect.

    So far I have pulled the system configuration file, I have reset safari, I deleted all old passwords from the wifi network in Keychain I restarted both devices. I am at the end here and I cannot get it to work I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason this computer will not connect. It is system wide specifically to my personal hotspot. I can connect fine to any other network (wifi) but just not mine. I have not changed any wifi settings. I have been trying to figure this out. I have a MacBook Pro Late 2006 model running Lion (10.7.5) So any ideas anyone? Please help!

    12. At a WiFi hotspot, you can't get connected.  The most frequent reason is the login screen for the WiFi hotspot is only able to be connected with a single type of browser.  If Safari doesn't work, try Firefox, Chrome, Omniweb, or Opera.

  • Mail hangs when I try to open emails with certain attachments

    When I try to open emails with certain attachments, rather PS files (if I recall correctly) it hangs. It seems that Mail is trying to load the PS file for me, and maybe convert it to PDF, which take awful lot of time.
    So at the moment I cannot do anything! Because even if I force quit, and start the Mail program again, it tries to open this same email again!
    My question is: How can I prevent Mail from automatically loading attachments? I would the same for images etc. I want the power to load and view attachments whenever I want them to load.

    Do you keep the message preview pane open?
    If so, close the message preview pane below the message list by double-clicking on the horizontal divider bar that separates the message list from the preview pane.
    This will require double-clicking on a message in the message list to open it. If you have the Attachments and Message Size columns selected for the message list, you can select when you want to open a message that contains a large attachment or attachments.
    If this is for a POP type account, there is no setting in Mail to prevent a message attachment from being loaded when opening the message if the message with attachment has been downloaded from the server.
    Have a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

  • SAP Process Email with pdf attachments

    Folks,
    Background:
    Scheduled processes that run daily sends out emails to our users within SAP. It's also converts the spool to a .pdf file and attaches it in the email. Users can view this pdf (this is essentially a report). It's been working great!!
    Last month we upgraded our servers to a new hardware and migrated our system to our new hardware. Everything is working great.
    Past 2 weeks, this .pdf file is failing to open. It's sporadic though. It opens fine for 2 days but for the next few days it does not open.
    We are still getting emails with the attachment, but it does not open.
    It's opens ADOBE but this is the message we are getting:
    "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be opened because it has no pages".
    Please note, the process completed successfully and spool does exists with several pages.
    When we tried it to run it in foreground, it ran and we were able to open the .pdf.
    Experts, any thought? Do y'all think anything is basis setting that may need some tweak?
    Thanks.
    Raj

    Since it is 4.6C I guess you are using file system to store Spool files (I know that in NetWeaver it can also be done in Database TemSe: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/31/19c73b24062b48e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm)
    If storing spools on disk, you could check for consistency problems, i.e if you are filling up disk occasionally.
    Another thing that could affect you output process sporadically is if you for example schedule a report like RSPO1043 for spool consistency check (which probably could run very long or very short depending on number of spools etc every night). In that case if your output batch for generating the PDFs conflict with a report like this that locks the spool table, you could get into occasional problems depending on whether those batch runs coincide. So check what other batch jobs runs that might affect your process.

    Christian

  • Converting Microsoft Outlook Emails with JPEG attachments to a pdf

    Hi,
    I have emails with jpeg attachments.  When I open the email message and clikc the "Convert to PDF", the message is converted to a pdf but the pdf does not have the attachments. I'm assuming there is some setting for this that I can't seem to locate. I have Acrobat X
    Thanks
    Rick

    Hi Jay,
    You can use the 'Acrobat' plugin in Outlook and select the messages or folders to convert to pdf
    The attachments of the mails will be included in the attachment section of the pdf files.
