Inbox loses all messages older than one/two days

So, I'm the proud new owner of an iPhone, and while I'm generally very happy with it, I'm having some email troubles that I hope someone here might help me sort out.
The issue is that all the messages that come into my mailbox disappear after a day or two, which negates (at least for me) any advantage to having on-the-go email. My iPhone is set up to receive email from a POP account, and so far, I've had no problems receiving or sending mail - it's the not-deleting-emails-from-my-inbox issue that's giving me fits.
At first, I thought it might have something to do with the settings on the desktop computer (Mac Pro) which is also set up to receive emails from this account. The mail application on the desktop had been set to delete all messages from the server a week after the message had been retrieved. Given that the messages in my iphone are deleted from the iphone's inbox a day (at most two) after retrieving the message, I don't think this is an issue (in any case, i am under the impression that the iphone works like any other email application - once it retrieves a message, it is downloaded onto the device, correct? it doesn't just live on the server). In any event, to be on the safe side, I changed the Mac Pro's email settings to never delete messages from the server, but this hasn't affected my iphone's problem.
I've toyed around with the iphone's settings, but nowhere can I find a setting that addresses this specific problem. Anyone out there had the same trouble I'm having? If so, were you able to fix it? is it something I'm overlooking?
Thanks in advance.

That is the correct spot, what is/was that option set to under deleted Messages? Try setting it to Never and see if that might change the emails behavior. If that is not the cause then it might be a issue with the Mail Application Software on the phone in your particular case and would need to restore the phone.
Another thing to try is to remove the email account on the phone then re-add the account and see if it is doing the same thing.

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?
I have created other rules to move some of my daily messages into specific folders and I don't wish to auto-delete those.
Just the general stuff that keeps piling up in my me.com main email box. Mail such as FB announcements and other low priority stuff I want to look at before deleting but don't want to keep longer than a week or month.
TIA

Thanks, but I am looking for a more automated solution than hand marking emails as junk. I might as well move them to the trash myself.
Again, these are emails I want to receive and quickly read, but not keep longer than a week or month or so. By setting a rule to toss any older than 30 days back then my Mail program (and thus my hard drive) won't be wasting so much space. For example, currently I have over 6000 read messages, with their attachments, in my main email box. I'd rather not have to physically attend to sorting the one I don't want out.
The one I do keep for other reasons get moved into other folders.
It seems this should be possible.

All photos older than one month have disappeared!

I opened iPhoto yesterday and discovered that all my photos older than one month have simply vanished from the library as well all my many folders that I had organized them into. I got a message saying that my folders were being synched, or something like that, so I waited several hours, but the photos and folders never came back.
I had over 3,000 photos, including many that were scanned in, collected over a number of years, and had gone through many of them marking "faces" and "places." I have most of them elsewhere, although not organized as I had them in iPhoto. Has anyone encountered this before? Are they really gone or are they hiding somewhere?

The best fix is to restore from your back up.
Other than that:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Exchange 2010 Outlook search can not find messages older than 1 year

Hello,
I have an exchange 2010 sp2 server. One of my users complains that Outlook search can not find any message older than 1 year. He have all his 5 year mails in the mailbox, but looks like search engine cant recognise them :(
Any thoughts? thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please verify that indexing is complete in Outlook:
1. In Outlook, click in the Search box.
2. Click the Search tab, click Search Tools, and then click Indexing Status.
3. When the Indexing Status dialog appears, you should see the following:
Outlook has finished indexing all of your items.
0 items remaining to be indexed.
Besides, please use the Search-Mailbox cmdlet to check if you can get messages older than one year in this user mailbox.

Delete messages older than a date except personal folder

Hello everyone,
I have been spending a lot of time searching and testing how to delete all items older than 6 months in a user mailbox, but this rule it cannot be applied just one personal folder named "personal". I have been reading about retention policy and
retention policy tags, but I can't figure out how to use that to keep all items older than 6 month in personal folder.
could anyone tell me if I am right with retention policy or it's better other way?
thank you in advice

Hi,
In Outlook client, we can set AutoArchive for all folders to delete all items older than 6 months except for “Personal” folder one by one.
If you want to use retention policy in Exchange side, we can use retention tags and retention policies to have a try. there are three types of retention tags:
Default policy tag (DPT), Retention policy tag (RPT), Personal tag.
For your scenario, we can create a personal tag applied for this Personal folder. For example,
delete messages older than 3 years for this personal folder. Then apply this personal tag for Personal folder in Outlook. And the Personal folder items are all tagged. After that, we can
applying default policy tags (DPTs) to mailboxes to manage the retention of all untagged items.
Personal suggestion, since the delete action is only used for one specific mailbox, I suggest we can use AutoArchive in Outlook side to achieve it.

Hi Winnie Liang,
Thank you for answer. I would like to do all tasks from exchange side, so I know how to apply a retention policy to a mailbox for deleting all older than 6 months. But how can I apply the personal policy tag to a personal folder's users?
All involved users in this requirement are warned that they must let all personal messages in "personal" folder named "personal".

I want to hide all layers other than one layer when I play swf at first.

Hello. I am using Adobe Flash CS6 and AC2.
Right now I am trying to hide all layers other than one layer. There are 3 layers on my fla file like this.
Layer A
Layer B
Layer C
I want to keep hiding Layers B and C unless I click a button that makes layer B and C visible.
Layer A has a movie clip symbol, and it contains animation movie where a man is running.
And Layer B and C has a movie clip where people are chasing the person who is running on Layer A.
I mean, if I load swf file at first, there is only one person who is running, and when I click a button two people appears on a stage and they start to chase the person who is running on layer A.
What kind of script should I use to make this setting? Please give me your advice.
Thank you in advance.

Here is a simplified version of the code, including the two lines needed to make them invisible at the start....
b_mc._visible = false;
c_mc._visible = false;
b_btn.onRelease = function():Void{
          b_mc._visible = !b_mc._visible;
c_btn.onRelease = function():Void{
         c_mc._visible = !c_mc._visible;
What that version of the coding does is simply tell the object to acquire the opposite ( ! ) value of the current _visible property.
Notice also that I have removed the "_root " references inm the code. You should not make a habit of using it unnecessarily. If the code is in the main timeline already (the _root), there is no need to target it, and doing so can lead to problems if you ever need to load this file into another. If that code is not in the _root timeline then it is okay to use _root, though using "_parent " references can be safer for the same reason.
The way you had the code written is not wrong, but it was excessive in that you do not have to test the condition twice like you did, if it is not true then it has to be false....
if(c_mc._visible){
      c_mc._visible = false;
} else {
      c_mc._visible = true;

Inbox full message when not full, repair Inbox but all messages gone & empty Inbox keeps thinking

With an Inbox full message and couldn't download messages any more, I moved most messages to another folder under Archive but still get the same message. Reading from others' posts, I repaired Inbox but all messages there is gone and it keeps thinking forever. Tried compacting Inbox, it keeps thinking. Tried reboot and compacting (all) folders, it keeps thinking. Also deleted inbox.msf, which only one unused out of several email account's folder has, but no help. Sometimes when Inbox stops thinking, checking mail still gets Inbox full message. Wasted a whole morning already ... any idea please?

reboot your computer into safe mode with networking to stop your anti virus interfering and then compact your folders etc.

Message older than allowed MessageAge Error while invoking webservice

Hi,
I have a web service using, implementation is annotated with Wssp1.2-2007-Https-UsernameToken-Plain.xml Policy. I am using a java client based no static Service model to connect to the server.
When I try to connect to the webservice from local machine it works fine.
If I connect from a remote machine below exception is thrown. Even If I set both machines to same time zones and tame same exception is thrown.
( client running on windows, server running on linux)
How can I fix this ? Is there a way to configure MessageAge ? or disable it ?

Hello -
This is the webservice policy violation from client side.
Mainly the time difference is the route cause.
By default WLS will allow up to 300 sec for client message.
You can change the setting by editing the following...
Go to Security Realms >myrealm >Providers >DefaultIdentityAsserter
Then edit Digest Expiration Time Period value according to your requirement.

Excahange 2007 Need to permanently delete all emails older than x years

Cant get to the 2007 forum so don't know if this is the right place.
Trying to permanently delete all mail older than 4 years from our Exchange 2007 server. I have worked with Powershell in 2010 (Exchange)
but I cannot run due to some restrictions with 32/64 bit powershell limitations in exchange 2007.
I have searched google and these forums -- there has to be an easy way to do this or someone that can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In Exchange 2007, you can use the following cmdlet to delete emails older than the mentioned date from a mailbox.
Export-Mailbox -Identity xxx -StartDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -EndDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -DeleteContent
If you need to perform this on a set of mailboxes, paste all display names to a TXT file, name is as "test.txt". Run the following cmdlet.
Get-Content test.txt | Export-Mailbox -StartDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -EndDate "xx/xx/xxxx" –DeleteContent –Maxthreads 4
Hope this can be helpful to you.
