IMAP Autosaves Email

I have noticed that when I write an email using Mac Mail and Gmail using IMAP it autosaves the email as I type. This is then appears in my Trash bin. How can I stop the autosaving? I have already unchecked the Store draft messages on the server in Mailbox Behaviours and Use IDLE command is checked in Advanced.

Also I have noticed when an email is recieved it goes into Inbox AND All Mail AND Important when using Mac Mail. It doesn't happen in Outlook.

I use imap and emails deleted on my computer are not being deleted on my iPhone?

i use imap and emails deleted on my computer are not being deleted on my iphone?

Didn't work. I also tried it by deleting the account and that hasn't worked. I still have all of the deleted messages on my iphone.

Is there a way to NOT delete emails everywhere using IMAP? Emails come to all devices, iPhone 6, iPad, and Outlook (2010). If I delete in my iPhone it deletes everywhere else also which I don't want it to do.

Outlook 2010 with Time Warner as my internet provider. Had to switch from POP3 to IMAP and now when I receive messages and delete them from my phone they delete from my server, Outlook and iPad.
I want to keep them on my desktop in Outlook so I have them and I want to delete them from my phone so I'm not using up space.
I have tried changing the settings on my phone - deleted items go to trash and that worked one time then when I deleted another message it deleted on all devices.
HELP!

The iOS mail app does not have localized folders (and frankly I don't know of any third party apps that do either).

Tried what exactly, what what expectation and what out come?
Outlook on Mac and windows, when not used with an exchange mail system, typically allows for creating local folders (or at least used to). Once you move a message into a local folder, you can delete it from the server. It will then only appear on the desktop computer. You do have to make sure what you are creating and using is a local (on this machine) folder.
However, unless you have sizable attachments - and choose to download then - email messages will not use substantial storage space on an iOS device.

This makes no sense to me why they would set it up like that. I can't believe that people don't want to save e-mails on one device and keep them on another device. Have to wonder who came up with this not so great idea!
Actually IMAP (and exchange, for that matter) is specifically and intentionally design to do just the opposite. The vast majority of user want their mail inboxes to be consistent across all access devices. You are very much in the minority.

IMAP sent emails & drafts not syncing - MS Outlook 2007

Hello, I am having issues syncing the sent items from desktop outlook 2007 to my passport. I have been trying this figure this out for the past 3 days and hoping someone here can be of some assiastance. I have done the following:- checked the outlook save sent option- deleted and reinstalled email account multiple times on both ends - outlook and passport- been on the phone with BB tech supprt - file logs have been sent to their escalation team. everything seems normal- been on the phone with my site host - bluehost. everything looks good on their end In a nutshell: - when i send an email from my desktop outlook (2007) i do not get a copy of the sent mail on my device- when i send an email from my device (passport) i do not get a copy of the sent mail on my desktop outlook- i also do not get draft copies going both ways- everything worked fine in BB OS 7 The link from this seems to be broken - https://clients.websavers.ca/whmcs/knowledgebase/115/Keeping-your-Sent-folder-in-sync-across-devices.html From what i have been reading many people seem to have this issue. Any inputs are greatly appreciated. Thanks in an advance.

If using an SMTP relay for out going emails on an IMAP account, the Passport wont keep a copy that you can save this is true with Outlook as well if this is a personal email account, i would suggest using Outlook.com to pull your emails from this account so you can use Active Sync and get the Outlook.com connector for outlook 2007 with the new email account. then setup Passport with Active sync. you wont miss any messages since it will pull from old account and everything will sync nice with out the need of other software or cables

Q10 IMAP deleted emails displaying on my email list on my Lexus Enform

This is an issue.
With the Lexus enform you can bluetooth connect your Q10 and read IMAP emails in your car.
That is a nice feature. However, something happens with the Blackberry email app and the bluetooth enform connection.
When you delete all your IMAP messages from the Blackberry Q10 so there are no messsages in your inbox those deleted messages are still viewable on your car.
So the Bluetooth is still displaying deleted IMAP emails on the Lexus. How do I delete these emails so they do not continue to display on the Lexus. The Lexus email list is getting long of old read emails.
Comments and ideas?????

ask Hotmail.

IMAP message - Email is too large

I'm been on Windows 8 and Outlook 2013 for the past 6 months without issue. Recently I started receiving the following pop-up message every 2-3 minutes: Your IMAP server wants to alert you to the following: Email is too large, limit size to less than 20MB.
I've made multiple attempts to fix this, but without any luck. Can someone please offer insight on how they removed this pop-up? Outbox is cleared as is trash - please advise.

It sounds like one folder contains an item that is larger than 20MB and therefor doesn't sync by the limit set on your mail server. You can do a search based on size across your mailbox to find the item.

Unable to set up IMAP work email

I've input the correct addresses, ports, encryption settings, etc and I can only get back: "the server is not responding"
Very frustrated, as my previous 4 blackberries could all be set up simply by inputting my username and password.
I really like my new phone but without email it is useless to me. I talked to Rogers tech support and they were unable to help. My IT guy doesn't have any suggestions and just says "we don't administer outside devices, talk to your wireless provider".
It's too late to return my phone so unless I can get the email running I think I might have to put it on ebay or something.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Most likely it is a firewall issue with the servers where you work. If it is a big company, they may have done some security measures and the local IT people are not aware of this. It is not the first time I've seen this.
I would set up the local email rules in your office software to do a forward of all your incoming emails to a Gmail or some other address. Then you can IMAP or POP the email with your phone. This is actually a more secure way to handle this for both you and the company.

Syncing IMAP.mac email/ical/contacts across 3 computers - HELP PLEASE

I swear and promise to all of you - I have faithfully combed these discussions for several days now and tried a number of different things - and no can get/find the right answer... tried posting before & didn't help ---
1) have IMAP .mac account - only email I use - and its IMAP everywhere - no POP
2) have iMac G4 at home, eMac at school, and macbook laptop - eMac is only one not running Tiger yet but it's at 10.3.9....
3) I have 2 projects and 3 different classes of students going that all talk to me via email - and I need the same contacts, emails and calendar info on all three machines...
4) I first set up 16 mailboxes LOCALLY ON MY MAIN IMAC G4 COMPUTER, with rules configured for each - main rule is mostly - if sender is a member of group "A" (for example) move the message to group "A" mailbox.... Needless to say - I have these different member groups configured in my addressbook.... Also in a few there are more rules like "if subject line contains this key word - move it to this mailbox" etc....
5) I then set up the EXACT SAME mailboxes and rules ON THE .MAC SERVER (meaning on the giant cyberspace mailbox in the sky where everything is supposed to go)
to repeat - I have 16 mailboxes under the little "on my mac icon," and the exact same 16 mailboxes under the little earth globe icon on the server - the .mac icon.... and I did it from scratch - I didn't drag anything down to copy it - it's all original, set up each one and chose the pull down menu bar "set up on server" when it asked "where do you want this mailbox stored."
SOOoooo - when I open mail I have 32 little mailboxes down the side of my mail window........Everybody with me?
6) I then configured the rules to ALSO say - if sender is a member of group A - MOVE message to this group A mailbox stored locally on the computer, then ADDED THE RULE - if sender is member of group A - COPY same message to group A mailbox ON THE SERVER....
ok. I get mail - sometimes correctly, sometimes not... Sometimes the mail I get on a local mailbox doesn't always seem to copy to the same mailbox stored on the server.... Sometimes I don't get the little number flag on the side (the one that says you have 1 message unread etc)- occasionally a piece of mail just shows up in a mailbox without saying its there... Its just weird where things are showing up....
obviously - I'm on the wrong track here....
suggestions?
so.
WHAT HAPPENS ---
IF I ONLY HAVE MAILBOXES SET UP **LOCALLY** ON EACH COMPUTER?
can I see them on all? answer them on all? what happens if I delete a message on one computer - is it still on the other two?
or conversely ---
WHAT IF I ONLY HAVE MAILBOXES ON THE SERVER, none on the local computer?
can I see them all on all three? answer them all on all three? what happens if I delete a message on one computer - is it still on the other two?
ANNNNDDD - THE "SENT" MESSAGES - how do they show up - I often need to backtrack and find info [or remember what I told someone] in a sent message - is there anyway to see my "sent" messages on all three?
Am I out of my mind? Will I be excommunicated forever from the discussions for the length of this post?
FINALLY - (for you blessed blessed persons who might actually have stuck with me thus far) this question is also another aspect of the above --- when I try to SYNC my computers - I keep getting a message that the synchronization is failing, something didn't log on....
So, basically, nothing between the 3 computers is syncing correctly - and I have crucial info in address book, calendar and email I need on all three....
Getting divorced was less easier than this, I swear to God...
Oh please, please please please, I hope someone can help.... Classes start in two days, and so far I have been unable to prep effectively because this hath driven me mad, mad - I tell you, mad mad mad....
Thanks be to these discussions and the selfless, dedicated people who answer.... If I still have valid soul, it is only because of you guys....
my deep gratitude....

Huh? What are you talking about? What's patronizing about my post? I just pointed out what you seemed to be missing. What's wrong about telling you where is the information that you were missing? How was I supposed to know whether you had read articles that you hadn't mentioned when some of your questions are clearly answered there? And even if I knew you had read them, what's wrong about telling you what you were missing there?
If it's the last sentence that you have a problem with, it seems to me that you missed the smiley at the end. Your post was very long and confusing. Thoroughly reading and understanding it all requires way more effort than usual. My last sentence was just an humorous comment about the fact that I couldn't deal with all of it and I might have missed something.
An answer like this makes me hesitant to post again
Well, at this point, I don't care at all whether you post again or not. I can tell you for sure that I'll never, ever, answer a post from you again, so if that's what you're concerned with, you don't have to worry about that possibility at all...
You might consider trying to check your ego
It seems to me that it's someone else who needs to check his/her ego...

IMAP Mac Email disappearing & Reappearing

I am on OSX 10.8.3 using Mac Mail 6.3. I have made sure allof my siftware is up to date. I set up my email to use IMAP not POP. It has been working great for a while but now my email disappears and reappears. I had like 50 unread messages and now it says I have eight. I checked my mail server and I have 50 on the server. Also, even though my email says I have 8 unread, when I go to my inbox, it is empty. Then, all of a sudden, they will reappear. I have run the synchornize command and according to the Activity screen it just runs and runs. So then after they reappear, I can read my emails, etc. like normal. Then all of a sudden it starts all over again.
Any thoughts/ideas as to why I am seeing this weird behavior?
Thanks,
Clay

What sort of regular maintenance? No such maintenance is required. You don't have any of that "clean up" software do you?
I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.

Why won't my iPhone 4 receive or send IMAP GoDaddy email?

Help!! I am running iOS4.3.5 on an iPhone 4 in Australia, and up until about three weeks ago, received and sent mail perfectly and now, nothing.
I have checked settings and the setup with GoDaddy support and they're all correct. Tried different ports for incoming and outgoing, and still nothing.
Don't think it's a strange network thing on the phone as my MobileMe email comes through fine, or a GoDaddy account issue as I receive and send email perfectly on Entourage. So the problems gotta be somewhere in the phone.
Any ideas?

Contact your carrier. MMS is a carrier feature.
It also requires an active cellular data connection (ie: 3G) in order to function.

It shouldn't. Most email is non-ssl.

I receive since years emails from finanznachrichten.de. Now on my Playbook 2.0 the email client (not bridge) is crashing when rendering this email. For now I delete the message by Torch before reading emails on the PB. So I think there must be a bug on the PB for a not managed exception. any ideas?
thanks

The use of pseudonyms as the main iCloud iCloud IMAP / new iCloud email without changing Apple ID

There was a need in a new email. My main email of [email protected] and [email protected] I don't use these emails. I created the pseudonym [email protected] and I want that [email protected] was the MAIN email of iCloud IMAP
And [email protected] and [email protected] it is simple to remove.
I am very captious person and if something is connected with names that to me very strongly hurts the eyes. Certainly I could forget, but what for? to me these emails the truth aren't necessary! I use [email protected] from it I write and I receive letters. [email protected] and [email protected] are disconnected in settings and for them only letters come. I want them to remove FOREVER from an account of Apple ID and to use one as the main [email protected]
I ask you to help with this question.
