I just watched 2 email messages disappear

Over the past month or so, I haven't been getting some email messages. I thought I was going crazy, but this time I was able to watch it happen.
I have a blog site I like to post messages to. For the message to be posted, they send me an email in which I have to click a link.
Well, I watched the email come in and before I could click on it, it disappeared. Not in my Junk folder, not in the Trash, just gone.
So I tried it again and watched the same thing happen. Not cool.

Yeah I am having this problem now, on both computers, both my wife's an my accounts. Random mail dissappears. I can produce it reliably by sending an email to myself, since those always dissappear.
They don't seem to go anywhere - you cant find them (search, spotlight, or anywhere), they dissappear online too (this is a MobileMe IMAP, no idea if it is affecting my other accounts). No rules are in place, and it is not junk since it doesn't show up there either. Anyway,S

All my email messages disappeared !

Hello,
I just woke up to find all my email messages disappeared (Over 7000) during the night.
When I login into mobile me. They're gone as well.
Only three new messages from today show up.
What's going on? How can I get them back?

HI Daniel,
From the Mac Mail Menu Bar click Mailbox/Take Accounts Online
And Mailbox/Synchronize Mobileme.
See if that helps.

My email message disappears off the page before it is sent or saved.

Sometimes my email message disappears (zooms to the right) before it is sent or saved (I use Safari). How can I retrieve that message?

Email messages disappear

My email messages disappear after a certain length of time.

You need to provide better information. Are you using only the Comcast webmail, or a mail client like Outlook or Thunderbird? Do you have the account enabled on more than one computer or other device like a smartphone or a tablet? What time interval are the messages vanishing at----a week, a month etc?

TS3276 why do my email messages disappear from my inbox since I started using OSX Mountain Lion on my mac?

Verizon WebMail Email Messages Disappearing

I use the MyVerizon 2.0 webmail application to view my email messages remotely. I have reported that a few weeks ago my email messages have been disappearing from my inbox. Today, the messages disappeared again from my inbox. My email client at home is Windows Live Mail. I have in the options to leave a copy on the server checked so that the messages do not get wiped out. Has anyone else experienced this? Any solution out there? I suspect a problem with the Verizon Webmail application since this did not happen before it was updated. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It appears that after changing my password, that the emails have remained on the server and are viewable using webmail so far. I now suspect that some POP3 client was downloading them somehow. That is the only conclusion I can come to at this point.

Why have most all email messages disappeared from the folders they were stored in?

I have 57 folders set up in TB. All had multiple email messages stored in them. These file folders were used regularly without any problem. One day I accessed one of the folders and it was empty. It turned out that all folders were empty except for eight and those eight had files missing. I was at a complete loss as to what had happened. I then remembered that System Mechanic, which I have installed, had found something like 124,000 misaligned files prior to this problem and had proceeded to fix the problem. I don't recall if I had tried to reference any of my TB stored emails immediately after the misaligned file problem was "fixed" or several days had passed since this misaligned file problem was "fixed". I have had both TB and System Mechanic installed for 3+ years without any problem. Has anyone had this problem with or without System Mechanic installed.
Thank you for any help offered.

Yes they can. Connect your iPhone to your computer, open itunes, click on info and click on sync contacts. Alternatively you can go to your phone settings, iCloud and deselect the contacts option. A dialogue box or whatever that thing is should come up, select keep on my iPhone. Wait a few minutes and reselect it again and choose merge when it asks you to. Let me know if that solves your problem. It happened to me on my iPhone 4s and I just fixed it a few minutes ago.

Email messages disappearing from my Blackberry Tour

I currently have my BlackBerry Tour configured for three seperate email accounts. The first two are working just fine. I just noticed this this morning that for the third, messages that I have read appear to be disappearing from the device. I've checked in Options and it appears that I have plenty of available space (101680072 bytes free) unless I am misreading what that number represents.
For example, I've read and responded to probably 10 emails from this account today. The emails that I read early this morning no longer show in the inbox, however the sent item for the response that I sent still does. The only items that still appear in the inbox are items that have arrived in the last 2 - 3 hours, anything prior to that, including ALL emails that I have received since setting up the account a few weeks ago are gone. The only thing that is visible for those dates are my sent items.
I had seen another thread in which someone had stated that rebooting by removing the battery might correct the issue but I tried that and it did not. I've included my settings for the email account in question below. I don't use any type of third party sync application, what the heck is going on here and how do I fix it?

Yea this is strange.
Some IMAP email servers will reconcile "read" messages, and perhaps mark them as read on your device IF they have been marked as read on the email server, but Outlook doens't normally do this. The reverse is also true, reading the mail on the device can mark the same message as read on the email server. And in some setups, deletes can be reconciled.
But this sounds different.
The device memory on your BlackBerry should be ok, but let's look anyway, at Options > Status, what is your File Free?

Sent messages disappearing from Mail

I checked the threads. This has been a problem for some, but not me before that I remember, and I haven't come across a solution that works for me.
This morning I had an email message disappear after I tried to send it. Sometime later I heard the swoosh sound, and it's there in the sent mailbox, so I didn't think much about it. This evening, after taking much time to carefully compose a long detailed technical message to some actors and performers in a musical I'm producing, I clicked send, and the message disappeared. No draft, no sent, and no "swoosh". About a minute later, I heard a swoosh. But nothing else happened.
I'm about losing my **** right here. The most frustrating feeling ever.
Now, an hour later, still no message. I've checked everywhere I could think of. I looked in the mail folders in the Library. I found the email I sent prior to this. It's late at night, and I have no way of finding out whether it was received (somehow I doubt it), and now I'm worried some other critical messages I've sent out may have also vanished.
I depend on email for my work, and I've counted on mail to do the job for many years. It's always worked for me. Now this. I'd love to keep using mail, but I depend on my email for business, and I can't afford for this to ever happen again.
Has anyone else experienced this lately and has anyone else come up with a solution? Until I do, I'm taking special precautions such as manually copying the message as I go/revise and pasting/saving into text. I wish I didn't have to, but I obvioulsy can't count on mail.

Please see my post and how it was resolved:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1181356&tstart=0
When I had that issue, I tried using Apple Mail app and noticed that Sent Mails are getting lost. Try sending an email using WebMail. You might see similar "Permission Denied" error. Try restarting the server and see if the issue still exists.

Mail messages disappear - just a blank mail message for all emails

Mail messages disappear - just a blank mail message for all emails.
This happens sporadically since I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2.
It happens on all of my machines (Macbook Air, + iMacs) so it must be a software bug.
Is there an update coming through for Mail?

Back up all data. Rebuild the mailbox.

I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues. They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

Wrote email was not connected message disappeared! any hope?

Important message written while not connected. Connected later but can't find it in any part of mail. Message was not received.This seems a very OLD problem!
Any hope! Please keep it simple...

Even after rebooting, my last "stuck" email is not going out. When I open mail, it is immediately trying to send it again, but like before, without success. It is in the outbox. The Mail Activity window just shows the email half way through.
So now I have two problems:
1) Can an email disappear after you hit send? Not getting sent and not ending up in your sent folder? If so, can I retrieve it from somewhere?
2) What to do about the "stuck" email.
Thanks,
Don

Email messages appear on BlackBerry via Redirector but disappear from Outlook 2003

Email messages appear on BlackBerry Model 8310 via Redirector but disappear from Outlook 2003 mostly when the messages have attachments regardless of file size.

Hey RR-2010,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Do you have the synchronize option enabled for reconcile messages in BlackBerry Desktop Manager?
Also is there any reason why you're using BlackBerry Desktop Redirector? Have you tried setting up the email account via BlackBerry Internet Service?
