Take a look at some of the links under the "Learn More" section on Gmail's help site:

I sent an email from my iPhone 3GS (via iCloud account) with around 16GB of attachment. It slowed down the phone for a few seconds, then appeared to be sent. However, the message is now not in the sent box, and I can't see an outbox at all. Any ideas?

That changes things a little bit , login to icloud.com and see if you can find it in your sent folder.
If it is there you did send, just need to wait until you phone syncs "sent folder" perhaps on wifi.
If it is not, then I would say it is lost and you may have to send again. They have 20 megs limit, so make sure that message plus attachment is under that limit.

I inadvertently deleted all the mail in my in box and emptied trash. Can they be retrieved?

Emails sent from device not show in "Sent Box" and "BIS" issue

Dear All and Rim:
New to BB world, needed following help...
AOL mail box had connect with "Tour" successfully, service provided by Verizon.
Mails sent from device are not show in AOL "Sent Box" nor Outlook Express's "IMAP" / "POP" server's Outgoing "SMTP" folder.
Truly need copies to "Sent Box", Thanks for help!!
Also try to set up "BIS" accout, error message said:
"Your Account is not accessible via HTML Browser..
Please use your device to access Black Berry Internet Service"
I used this link:
https://bis.na.blackberry.com/html?brand=vzw
Thanks you,
Jan
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So for the mail issue seems sending myself a copy is the only way to go, right?
That would be a solution.
And about the BIS, my try was on a PC, it didnt work... Anyway, i was going to log on to the BIS to work on my issue above, but seems it doesnt help now, so it doesnt matter if i can sign up or not.
Well, that's entirely odd...I just used that link myself (from a PC) and get into my BIS account just fine. You can, however, use the device interface to BIS -- watch that demo I provided you above for instructions on that. BIS is merely a service, provided by your carrier. The PC/website method and the device interface -- those are simply two different interfaces into the same service, so using one or the other doesn't matter...they result in the same thing.
Good luck!

Every email I have sent in the past two years just reappeared in my sent box and I can't delete them. Why?

Every email I have ever sent just showed up in my sent box. I can't delete them. What's up?

Hi Linda,
This is Strange.
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Email set up - Sent box and smart mailboxes

Hi. I am new to mac and mavericks. I have migrated my various email accounts successfully BUT have a problem in that each email account does not have its own inbox and sent mail. Yes, I know I can pick up the separate accounts under Inbox - although it is a very cumbersome way to do it.
BUT all the sent mail is in one box. This is VERY frustrating as I have my personal emails and emails for two companies all in the same sent box.
This is a logistical nightmare. Furthermore, sent replies do not figure in the conversation thread until the recipient replies ... this is a real problem if the recipient does not reply.
I thought I might be able to circumnavigate this issue by setting up smart mailboxes but when I set up a new smart box I cannot then access the access the 'edit' or change criteria as they are greyed out.
Can anyone help? Make suggestions? HELP!!!

Hi Barney-15E
Thanks for your response - i am about 12 hrs ahead of you hence delayed reply.
1) I had the sent mailbox settings to date rather than mailboxes. Have changed that so at least the 'sents' are now in their correct mailboxes.- I hope.
2) smart mailbox - i had set up one account, it had a gear next to it but remained greyed out when selected (in fact it keeps coming up in the rename mode), which of course is why the 'edit' did not function. i have deleted it. I do not know why it remained greyed out.
Am I doing something crass?
3) all my other mailboxes are gmail, and no sign of a 'sent' within them. I have them on my iPad as well and they function perfectly there. Sadly iPad is not functional for business purposes except in emergency when it is a real saver...just not suitable for other documents.
In gmail (old style) I have a number of folders and moving emails into folders was no problem. It would be so good to be able to deal with just one mailbox at a time! I will eventually adapt to the mac system I guess. At the moment I seem to be spending more time frigging around than doing actual work!
I really appreciate your assistance.

Emails that I've sent don't show in the "sent" box and I can't attach a "sent" sound

Emails that I've sent on my ipad don't show in the "sent" box. Also, I can't attach a sound to sent emails.

I have been having the same problem.
Since August 3, Mail has not received any new messages from my hotmail account. Up until August 3, Mail has been performing flawlessly for years, handling three different email accounts [two of the accounts were disabled in Mail a few months ago].
I have the "Activity" window [Window>Activity] in Mail open. The activity window clearly shows that Mail is "Preparing to retrieve messages". But nothing is retrieved. And when I go to my email via web browser, it clearly shows that I have received email messages since August 3.
And the Connection Doctor in Mail [Window>Connection Doctor] clearly shows a green light for my hotmail/Outlook account.
I have no clue what is happening.
Just for giggles, I enabled my other other email accounts. Both retrieved emails flawlessly. Maybe Hotmail/Outlook has changed some of its security settings???

Gmail goes to Sent box and Trash box

Hi
Everytime I send a message it records in the sent box OK but also appears Trash in multiple numbers.
How can I recify this. Currently using Mavericks.
Any ideas

Sure you're looking in the right place, or just looking at your Inbox? When looking at your Inbox, tap "Maiboxes", what do you see?

I have lost my sent box and can't send any e.mails

I can't send any e.mails out It would appear that I have lost everything to do with my sent box

Hi mummyh66xx,
What is your email provider? Is it Yahoo!, Gmail, Hotmail, MSN, or possibly another provider?
If your emails have disappeared from your Sent folder, it's likely that it's related to your email provider, regardless of the browser you are using to navigate.
We suggest you contact the Support team of the email provider you are using, so that they can further investigate the issue and possibly recover your lost emails.
Best of luck! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks!!

IMAP email and the sent, drafts and trash folders

I am using Mail 2.1.3 and have set up my accounts to work through IMAP from the server into my account.
I can send and receive email absolutely fine, however it is not saving any sent emails and it won't save any emails to the draft folder. I have tested from the webmail on the server, the sent email goes into the sent folder on the web, and then I also see it in Mac Mail.
But if I send an email from Mail, it won't go into the sent folder.
Any ideas what I need to do to get this working properly? I have been on to the provider and they say it is something to do with my email settings but won't give me any more than that.
Please help.

Thanks Fred,
I had those checked already but it still wasn't working. In the end I found the below link to another post where I needed to put INBOX into the IMAP Path Prefix box in the Advanced section.
Once this had been done and I sent another message, the sent box from the IMAP account appeared in the Mail sent box and it's all working now.
You were right with the "Sent Messages" folder, this also appeared after I had done the above step.
Thanks again.
Simon

Missing Sent box

I just opened my Outlook account. I have sent several emails but they do not show up in the Sent box (and yes, I have checked the box: Save copies of messages in Sent items folder.) There is a Sent Items box under Favorites and another under
Outlook Data File but there is no Sent Items box among the files listed under my name with a Google mail address. How do I get it to show up here?
Thanks!
Esti

Hi,
How did you configure your Gmail account in Outlook? Via POP3 or IMAP?
If via IMAP, please check if you have a "Sent Mail" folder under "[Gmail]". If so, can you see your sent mails in it?
In addition, please click File > Account Settings > Account Settings > Double click your Gmail account to open the "Change Account" wizard >
More Settings button > Advanced tab, make sure the box labelled "Do not save copies of sent items" is not selected.
Please let me know the result.

My email app is frozen in the sent directory and I cannot close or delete the email that is frozen.

When trying to open a sent message from the sent directory to the inbox my email froze up in the sent box and appears to be in a continuos loop according to the indicator in the lop left corner.

Have you tried closing the Mail app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail '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 then you could try 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.
You could also try deleting the email via a browser if you don't need it

When I send mail on my ipad, it does not appear in the sent box.

I use bellsouth.net for email on my ipad, I have a sent box and it has some sent mail from a long time ago. My mail is being sent just not showing up in Sent Mail Folder. How do I get my sent mail to show up in the sent folder?

I don't quite understand your point. If iTunes leaves the book "ticked" it should transfer back to the iPad when you sync because the "tick" means that the item is selected to sync.
If you want to remove the book from your iTunes library, launch iTunes on your computer, click on "Books" under the library heading, click on the book that you want to delete and hit the delete key or right click on the book and select delete. I think both methods will work if you want to delete the book.
I don't know if that answers the question, but like I said, I'm unclear as to what you mean.

Firefox can't seem to save sent emails in the "sent" box

Have sent two emails today - neither will get saved in the sent box and I get an error message saying:-
"There was an error saving the message to Drafts. Retry?"
But I wasn't trying to save the email to "drafts" - I don not know if the actual email has been sent.
Could this be related to the fact that today I changed my Virus Protection from BullGuard to Kaspersky? Can't find anything on K's control panel affecting emails!

I use Hotmail, or Live Mail as it is now called. Open to your e-mail and
log in. Look for your name at the top right. Press the '''Gear''' next to
your name, and select '''Options.''' On the right side under
'''Preventing junk email,''' select '''Filters and reporting.''' From the
options, select;
'''Exclusive - Everything is sent to the junk email folder except'''
'''messages from your contacts and safe senders'''
Now and then, look at your Junk folder in case something turns up
that you want. You can always choose to add or remove e-addresses
any time you want.

MAIL IS EATING SENT MAIL AND SENDING DUPLICATES

hi-
i've been having MAJOR mail issues. the biggest are .mac mail is eating my sent email - they just disappear into thin air - never to be found again.
and i've noticed there are duplicates - 2, and sometime 4 of the same email sent out.
i am using the mail.mac.com as incoming and outgoing server. i have sbc global as my dsl. i've called applecare numerous times and sbc. they cannot figure it out.
can someone please help me sort this out?
thanks so much
rainey

well...that's the tricky part. sometimes it eats my mail. and other times it sends out duplicates.
it tends to do this if i've just sent an email and i go into my sent box shortly after, all of a sudden it'll show up and then poof - disappear.
other times if i'm not looking at what i've sent i'll ocassionally look in sent box and notice there are 2, 3 and sometime 4 dups sent to the same person.
these are just 2 problems of the MANY that i've had with email.
also when i have a disc in my drive (say scrabble game) my minimize options disappear...
i'm all jacked up.
any advice on any is greatly appreciated.
a friend thinks my box is corupted b/c i started it when i was still operating on panther and when i upgraded to tiger problems started.
thanks
rainey
