Ipad email problem displaying sent item recipient

Hello
I am new to the iPad. Actually its my friend that has one and I am trying to get him up and running with it. We have one question to start with. He uses a PC Laptop for his main machine with an IMAP account so all the mail folders are stored on the ISP's server rather than locally.
IT all works on his iPhone and his new iPad but what we have noticed is in the sent items folder is that on both devices it displays the senders (his) name rather than the recipient on each email. Not very helpful when there are a couple of thousand emails in sent items.
My iphone is pop3 and any sent items show the recipient.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Barry

Hi
Thanks for the reply.  No, there is no cc set up.  It is strange.  Its only on his apple devices.  His iPhone and iPad both show his name in sent items.  The inbox shows who the message is from but none of the sent folders do.  In Outlook however on his PC it shows the recipient in all sent folders.

  • Why can't I remove attachments from emails in the Sent items folder?

    I Recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, and so far, there are at least a couple of things that puzzle me.
    One is that now I don't have the option to "Remove Attachments" from emails in the sent items folder. It seems to work normally
    in the Inbox and Drafts folders, but not in the Sent items. Go figure ???
    Another thing that bothers me is that in Preview, when I save a screen shot, or a scan, etc., I no longer have the option of saving it as a GIF
    (which, when better quality isn't absolutely necessary, is often much lower in KB or MB than a PNG or JPG, etc.. When I store lots of things as such images, I'd rather have that option.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    I have now created a smart mailbox as described above (good idea), and although I have some 50 messages in my Sent box, all with attachments (waiting to be removed so I can store the messages in the proper mailboxes), the smart mailbox is empty. So, Mail doesn't recognise these messages as containing attachments.
    This led me to think that maybe Mail has been redesigned to work the way you would expect it to, at last; to contain a link to attachments instead of including them in all their bits and bytes. That would mean that the messages in my Sent box - with attachments - could be stored in local (or server-side) mailboxes without taking up extensive space.
    But then I checked the size of my Sent Messages folder inside the Mail Folder in Finder, and - whoops - it's 50+ MB. So the sent messages do contain attachments all right. And Mail doesn't recognise these, since a) the smart mailbox trick says that the messages are free from attachments, and b) the Remove Attachments menu option is disabled.
    I will have to wait for the next Mail update, and my Sent box will grow accordingly ...

  • Setup Yahoo Plus email in MAC OS 10.6 - Problem with sent items

    Hi All,
    I want to setup my yahoo plus email in MAC OS 10.6.6 / Mail version 4.4 (1082).
    The sent items are not synchronising with the server. It means that if I sent an email from mail client it will not appear in the server sent items and I can not download my sent items from the server to the client either.
    Could you please let me know if you have any idea?
    Thanks,
    Mohammad

    This might relate to you as you are using a Windows 2008 Server with Mac clients.
    Apparently there seems to be an issue with SMB, since Microsoft rolled out SMB 2.0 with Windows 2008 Server. According to Microsoft, SMB 2.0 is supposed to solve world hunger and bring peace to the middle east, but in reality, it just puts up more road blocks for non-Microsoft platforms. Check out this article I found:
    http://www.petri.co.il/how-to-disable-smb-2-on-windows-vista-or-server-2008.htm
    Currently we have an issue with all 40 of our Macs not being able to save files properly to the Windows 2008 file server due to what the message claims to be a permission issue, but in reality it seems like something to do with the SMB protocol. We are investigating the issue and will see in a few days if the problem can be resolved by disabling SMB 2.0 on Windows 2008 Server.
    Let us know if this problem resolves your problem as well. You never know how many other issues can be caused by a twitchy SMB protocol.

  • Problems with sent items

    Hi,
    I have just purchased a Macbook pro and cannot get the sent items to display on my ipad or iphone. Likewise sent items on ipad and iphone do not appear on my Mac.  Any ideas please??

    Hello johndrocketmail
    Depending on the email, it may be the case because those emails may not sync up across multiple devices. What is the email that you are trying to sync up? Check out the article below for more information.

  • Email not being sent because recipient %@ rejected

    IN the past 12 hours all my emails are going to my outbox and not being sent.  The error message I am getting is " The Reciepient "%@" was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying"  How does one fix this

    This problem has nothing to do with her hardware or the Mail application.
    If a message cannot be successfully sent for whatever reason, it will remain in the Outbox mailbox and not be sent.
    A message moved to the account's Sent mailbox indicates the message was successfully sent by the SMTP server used to send messages with the account but is no guarantee the message will be delivered to the recipient's incoming mail server or be accepted by the recipient's incoming mail server.
    Generally, this type of problem is at the recipient's incoming mail server - the recipient's incoming mail server may be blocking all messages received from the domain for the sender's email account/address (the portion of the email address after the @ sign or blocking a range of IP addresses for which the sender is included, etc.
    The next place to check is the provider for the sender's SMTP server used to send messages with this account which is usually the email account provider but not always.
    My .Mac account is my primary email account but I use my ISP's SMTP server to send messages with my .Mac account when connected to the internet at home - not .Mac's SMTP server.

  • SOST error 802 - emails not being sent as recipient unknown

    Hello Experts,
    Similar issue has been posted earlier but suggested solutions are not solving my problem.
    When user sends mail (having .xls attachment) to XXX@YYY .com (an external email id), the email is being sent.
    When the user tries sending a similar mail again, the mail ends with error 802 (recipient unknown error) for SAME recipient.
    The mails are being sent sometimes but sometimes they end with above error.
    When I try re-sending failed email, it sends out successfully.
    Can you please throw some light on this as to why emails are failing only sometimes?
    Thanks.

    Hi Anisha,
    I'm facing the same issue. Please help on this and kindly suggest necessary steps to be taken.
    Thanks......

  • I am not able to see the sent emails in the sent items folder. I am using Apple mail. Does anyone have any solutions?

    I can't see the latest emails I sent in the sent items in Apple mail. Also, I am not able to see my old emails in the inbos folder. Can someone please help me out with this?

    Hello Vidish,
    You may need to indicate to the Mail app which folder should be used for sent messages. This can be done by selecting your 'Sent' mailbox, and choosing (from the 'Mailbox' menu) Use This Mailbox For -> Sent.

  • New iPad does not display sent messages

    i set up the mail, send mial happily. but when i go to sent mail folder, it displays sent e-mails form last year, and all the wya back to 2011, but not the ones i sent this week since getting the new iPad.  anybody have any ideas?

    The model number that you listed is a WiFi only iPad (original, not iPad 2) so it will not connect to 3G data as I think you already know. 
    Doesn't one have to have an AT&T account to connect to attwifi?  If they do have an AT&T account and are trying to connect do they ever get to a logon screen (best way to bring it up is to try and access any site over the web, you'll get redirected to a sign-in page).
    Other question is how strong is the signal, I have lots of issues with public WiFi being strong enough for my device to see it, but not strong enough to actually connect and do anything.

  • IPad email problems on 3G

    I have an iPad which up until Wednesday this week has picked up my talktalk emails via Orange 3G network without any problems.
    On Wednesday this stopped working with an error message that "mail.talktalk.net was not responding” and to check the email settings.  If I connect the iPad via a wifi connection I can get my emails without any problem, so the iPad email settings are correct and it worked fine on 3G until Wednesday.
    I have spent hours on the phone with Orange and with Apple proving the iPad is OK and Orange data connection is OK.  I have phoned talktalk and all I get is it’s not a talktalk problem and cannot get anyone to help.
    Am I the only one with this problem or are there others out there with iPhones and iPads having the same problem?  It is driving me mad……………..

    Web browser and all apps working fine over 3g - the problem is only with mail send and recieve.
    The message I get is "mail server mail.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com" is not responding. Verifyy that you have entered corerct account settings info in mail settings"
    I use port 143 with SSL on for incoming
    I use port 25 with SSL off for outgoing
    Same settings as with my iPhone mail app which works fine over 3g.
    Thanks

  • IPad and iPhone mail sent items does not synch with exchange 365

    This has been a longish term issue that vue ignored till now but...
    I run exchange 365 hosted service from Microsoft, own domain.
    It synchs all no issues with iPad and iPhone mail, contacts calendars etc all except sent items on mail.
    My last synced sent items mail is 2012.
    It tries to synch ie connecting etc, then fails, locking up mail synch for about an hour then on all folders.
    Just want to be able to see sent items stuff

    This was a user issue. The webmail account I have stored the Mails other folders under personal folders and there I found that my sent mail had been getting sync'd.
    The answer is on the server not the OS Mail

  • Sent E-mail Not Appearing in Sent Items - Recipient Never Received

    Do they appear sent on the server?  If not, then they didn't get to that point.
    Check her drafts folder as well.  She might have saved it but not sent it.

    Weird issue:
    We have a Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 user who sent 3 e-mail messages this morning from outlook 2013. The messages were never received by the intended recipients, they are not in the Sent Items folder, they are not in the Deleted Items folder, and when viewing Sent and Deleted Items in OWA, they don't appear there either.
    This user was replying to messages from other users in our office, and the messages she was replying to says "You replied to this message at 9:04 AM". None of these replies contained attachments.
    A casual search of Outlook reveals no traces of the sent messages. Messages that were sent before and after these messages have been received by the recipients.
    Do e-mails really just disappear?

    Hi Jeremy,
    This article should answer your question.

  • I've got 2 email addresses but sent items from the 2nd one arrive at the recipient from the 1st address.

    Both SMTP servers are loaded but both seem to use default when sending mail.

    What do you have for the Outlook server under Tools/Account Settings/Outgoing Server (SMTP), select the Outlook server in the right pane?

  • AiO iPad email problem.

    I am trying to email a scanned document from my iPad off of of my Officejat 8600. The scan works fine to my iPad but when I select it and hit send it will go to my outbox and then I will get an error code that there was a problem sending the email. Is there something else I can check to see what the problem is. Also is there a way to open ,y documents in another program other than the AiO program?

    Hello Smh624,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I see you are having some problems getting the Officejet 8600 to print from your iPad, however it will scan into the iPad without issue.
    Start with the below guide for troubleshooting the printing issue. As far as the ability to open a file in another App, if an icon like this;  or  appears, click that and Apps installed will display that can open the file.

  • 3rd party mailbox emails dissapered from sent items

    hi,
    we have 3 mailboxes, 2 are gmail accounts, the 3rd is my work email address.  it's the 3rd one that  is a big issue.  i receive emails via their pop3 server, and send emails via smtp.gmail.com.
    what is happening regularly now is
    1) loss of connection and imail not accepting the password for the email.
    2) my mailbox is completely empty.  i rebuilt it and everything looked to have come back. but i looked at sent folder, went back to the mailbox and it was empty again - 2 minutes after the rebuild.
    3) mails sent from my 3rd emaill adress are not listed in the sent folder.
    i have had the 1) problem several times and have lost loads of time figuring it out but the problem keeps happening.
    the missing emails is a major issue for me! and this started hapenning around the 14th august.
    any help gratefully received!

    Just figured it out. Somehow Gmail changed a setting on itself. I certainly didn't do it. Probably happened when the sign-in blipping started.
    Click SETTINGS
    Click LABELS
    UN-CLICK "SHOW IN IMAP" next to your Sent folder.
    Now Sent folder appears under Inbox with all my sent email listed in it.
    And not to worry... As Gmail notes: Removing a label will not remove the messages with that label.
