Is there a way to set the iPad Mail app to only get email manually, not automatically when the app is opened?

I usually don't use my iPad Mail app to check my email, but sometimes I go into the Mail app just to send a test email or check an attachment in the Sent folder or some such, and every time I enter the app, Mail checks for new email. Which means it ends up downloading five hundred emails or so if I haven't been to the app in a while. Annoying! I haven't been able to find a setting that will stop Mail from checking for new Mail when I go into the app; is there such a setting?

You can turn mail off in the settings but then you can't use it for anything, including the "test" that you want to perform.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Account Name>Mail>Off. That totally turns off the mail account.
As long as mail is turned on and you launch the app, it will look for an download new mail.

How can I set Mail to show only one email at a time

Mail will group emails based on subject or sender and then I keep losing or missing emails because they get buried in a thread. Sometimes under another persons name!
I'm old and easily confused.
I just want one email per line. No grouping. Can't seem to figure out how.
Thanks!

Hi Keefer-in-space!
You may need to try turning off the “Include related messages” setting in the preferences of your Mail program:

I have 2 gmail accounts on the mail app but only 1 is working

I have 2 gmail accounts on the mail app but only 1 of them are working. the default account isn't working and emails are coming from the other account.
They are both working on the iPad. How do I get the non working account back on my iPhone?

I get a message saying the server imap.gmail.com is not responding. Verify the correct account info in mail settings. ...it looks fine to me, how do I know what I need to fix?

How do you stop Mail App from recovering deleted emails

I use Mail app to manage multiple email boxes. Whenever I send a message, it will fail and ask me to send through another server. If it fails, it will infinitely ask this question. Also when I cancel it, it will infinitely recover and try to send the message. Even when I delete the mail box, it will bring it back. That email address is now unusable through the mail app because it shows the spinning wheel and tries to send/recover the one deleted message over and over.
I have read on this forum that if you delete the invisible folder below, it will get rid of the problem
~/Library/Mail/IMAP-<username>@[email protected]/.OfflineCache
Where is this folder? There is no folder in Library that is named "Mail". So I don't know what to do.

I did what you said but there is no file with "OfflineCache". I even used spotlight and it cannot find a file named or containing "OfflineCache". I saw the recovery folder and deleated the email in there. But when I start up Mail app, nothing has changed. I even deleted all the cashe on my system using CleanApp (hope this doesn't mess up anything) and nothing has changed. I can't even use Mail App until this is fixed.

Can I open the Mail app without configuration an email address?

I'm trying to open a .eml file, which seems possible in the Mail app. However, I can't open the Mail app without configuration an email account. I don't have an email account to configure; just want to open the file. Or, let's suppose, I just wanted to browse the interface? How to avoid the account setup part?

Just enter anything short & plausible in as few fields as you can get away with : '[email protected]' works here, you'll get a brief 'not responding' or such at each stage, but it does allow you to use Mail.

Email--I can only get emails from one account

I Can only get emails from one account on my iPad and iPhone 5
i used to be able to access both email accounts prior to getting a new battery for the iphone

Hi LinneaH,
If you are having issues with getting emails on your iPhone or iPad, then take a look at the article below to give you some troubleshooting options to get it working again. Make sure that the settings and passwords are correct for your email and if you still have issues, then you may want to remove the email account from your device and then add it back in.

Mail app crashes when receiving email from a particular sender

HI All,
Here is a problem I'm facing, Mail App crashes while receiving email from a particular sender. I'm testing our new Email Hosting solution "Rackspace" and it works fine with all other Email clients or on deveices (Android, Windows Phone & Blackbarry) but on Iphone 4s (IOS 6.1.4, i guess) it crashes the Mail App.
The email I'm using is sending over to an email at ttv-asia.com domain. The user of ttv-asia.com is based in China and just to see if the problem is with the Iphone, I've tested the Iphone's Mail App in Hong Kong and it works normal.
So now... Im confused and have no Idea on how ro fix this.

Sorted, it seems that livemail configured for exchange and having Google premier for exchange, results in the mail app on the iPhone crashing, when selecting an email in the Google exchange mail box, then calling up the folders , it crashes. switched off livemail mail, worked fine.
Weird.
Google vs Microsoft, with a little help from Apple ???????????

Native Mail app unable to get new mail after updating to iOS 5.0.1

Just after I installed 5.0.1 (OTA) I've noticed that native ios mail client is unable to get new mail messages anymore. I have three seperate mail accounts (Gmail, Hotmail, iCloud) connected to my iPad2 and none of them works after this software update. All I get is three seperate error messages (Cannot Get Mail) one after another for each account, same kinda of messages as you get once you try to open your Mail app with no internet connection, but this time it's not an issue as my iPad is connected to my home WiFi which is working just fine.
I've tried to restart my device, checked mail settings, made sure all the passwords are ok by typing them once again for all the accounts and I managed to get confirmation that they're ok with no difficulties using the same device.
All other apps that uses internet connection seems to be working with no problems as well.

Any ideas?

Once I got new mail messages to each mailbox it seems that everything got back to normal.

When I open my "Mail" app it only shows 2 messages when I know there are more. How do I resolve this?

When I choose my "Mail" app it only shows 2 messages in my inbox when I know there are more. How do I resolve this? Thanks.

You need to create HTML signatures for use with the Apple Mail apps. You can't just throw in a logo, it has to be stored on the internet and it's location coded into your signature. You may find a service and an app that helps you do that in the iTunes App Store.

TS4083 Is that behavior has changed along ios8 ? Or still you need to launch mail app to update unread emails ?

Is that behavior has changed along ios8 ? Or still you need to launch mail app to update unread emails ?

I've found out that this is by design.
Email Application offer push-notification, but read action is not populated to the Cloud.
So Mail app needed to be opened manually each time you want to refresh it status ...
That is not a good information...
As far as I remember, google had that work quite long ago properly (of course on iOS and inside Mail.app)

Why does Calendar keep opening my Mail.app to send me email notifications?

Why does Calendar keep opening my Mail.app to send me email notifications? I've disabled any settings that look like they could be used to sending me an alert. I've also read that disabling the email alerts in gmail would also help (since I use 3 gmail calendars in addition to my icloud calendar). Any ideas on how I might fix this issue?

Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box, other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

Downloaded Air Supremacy game app and only get company logo or a black screen before the app closes and goes back to my home screen. Checked that iPad and game are latest versions of software and restarted the iPad still with no luck. Any suggestions.

Have you tried a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

You can call Verizon to replace it or go to an applestore to replace it since it won't even power on with multiple chargers.
