IPhone 4s email question

As of about a year ago, there was no way to set an email "rule" to create an alert on the iPhone by sender, subject line, etc.  Anyone know of any new developments, apps, etc. that would make this possible?

Anything like the email rules you can set in the Mac email program?

  • Iphone 3gs email questions

    Hi all,
    I have an an iphone 3gs on Orange. My Internet provider is TalkTalk and I have a purchased private email address via names.co.uk
    I have set up the email address successfully I believe. But it appears that I can only send and receive emails at home?
    I can receive emails via mobile networks but not send ???
    Is this because of talk talk ... and do I need to configure an additional outgoing mail server.
    ALso ... I ve come via blackberry so fond of push email. I bought my wife an iphone3gs. She has configured a hotmail email, and for some reason, it seems that she gets alerted every time she has an email. where as I have to manually press the mail icon before I can check to see if I have mail. How I can I change this? or is this because I am using a purchased email address name???
    Thank you in advance for your technical cures. Please keep them idiot proof thank you so much.
    Best

    I have someone that wants to purchase my iPhone 3GS so I could put the money towards my new phone. If I do sell my phone during the time I wont have an iPhone period, will I be able to keep my data plan an a different phone? Even it's not a smart phone? And when I do get the iPhone 4 what must I do to transfer my plan to that phone?
    You can put your 3G S sim card in another ATT phone and it will automatically become your present number. Therefore, you can sell your present phone anytime you want. Just don't include the sim card with it. When you get your new phone (if you haven't done anything about requesting one of the new data plans), you should automatically get the same unlimited plan.
    The unlimited data plan is nice, but unless ATT changes their minds and allows tethering with the unlimited plan, I think it's of questionable value UNLESS you spend a LOT of time streaming video (read mlb.com or youtube) on a daily basis or streaming music (read pandora.com or sirius).
    For the present, I'm keeping my unlimited plan, but over the last 6 months, I'm only averaging about 1.5GB monthly. And that's mostly because I steam the Sirius App about 45-60 minutes daily while I'm walking. I would lean toward going with the 2GB plan IF ATT would kick up the monthly limit to say 5GB for tethering. I don't see myself doing a lot of tethering, but the 2GB would not cut the mustard for me unless I were to give up my Sirius App.

  • Iphone gmail/email question

    Hello there,
    I was wondering if someone could answer a question for me. I have two email accounts set up on my 3G iphone. The Gmail account is set up and works fine. I was wondering if there was a way to avoid my emails (sent, inbox or otherwise) to NOT be deleted from my account......but only deleted from my phone....if that makes sense? If I delete anything to do with Gmail on the phone, it also is deleted from the entire account. Is there a way around this?
    When I use my standard pop3 account, I can delete all the emails on the phone when read or dealt with but they still come down on to my mac as normal. It's just the Gmail I was trying to figure out.
    So: When deleted from the phone......I can still access them when at home online.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    I asked something similar in another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7758665#7758665) but it's still not working the way I need it to.
    For me,I need to delete emails from the phone, but leave them on my server; I set it up as POP, but then all the emails I sent were also downloaded to the phone, and I send out about 100 emails a day, so that doesn't work for me. I deleted that and set it up as IMAP, but now, like you, when I delete a message from my iPhone, it no longer appears in my gmail inbox on my computer, it's in All Mail.
    I don't have time to check different places for my mail--I had a Blackberry before the iPhone and it seemed so simple, so I need to figure out how to streamline it on the iPhone too!

  • Mac book, iphone, and email question...

    Hi all, I am about to buy my first mac book and hopefully in the near future (after current service contract up... although I'm not 100% sold on AT&T) buy an iphone. I am also beginning to search for a new email provider since embarq will no longer be using earthlink. Knowing I'm moving to mac book and will likely soon have an iphone, I'm seeking suggestions for a new email service that will work best with those. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

    sorry, just hoping to get feedback from those in both the macbook forum and the iphone forum.

  • HT201320 iPhone and email question

    I have an iPad where i set up an apple email @me.com and now i purchased an iPhone but cannot seem to set up the same email address on the iPhone - any ideas?

    I may be wrong, since it's been so long since I did this, but I believe if you sign into iCloud on your iPhone with the same account you signed into on your iPad, it should set up an @me.com email.

  • Two Questions....New Iphone and Email Question

    Hi yall! I was wondering if anyone knew if Apple was gonna come out with a new iphone..something newer than the Iphone 4. The reason i ask is because im eligable for an upgrade now but when i bought my 3gs last year a month later they came out with the Iphone 4 but i couldn't upgrade to it. So this time i thought id check before i got the iphone 4 incase they were coming out with something new!
    2. is there a way to like color coordinate your calendar. everything is just a black dot and was wondering if there was a way to make things more personalized.

    I was wondering if anyone knew if Apple was gonna come out with a new iphone..something newer than the Iphone 4.
    I don't know for certain, but I venture to say Apple will come out with a new iPhone at some point.
    The reason i ask is because im eligable for an upgrade now but when i bought my 3gs last year a month later they came out with the Iphone 4 but i couldn't upgrade to it.
    The original iPhone was release in the summer of 2007.
    The iPhone 3G was released in the summer of 2008.
    The iPhone 3GS was released in the summer of 2009.
    The iPhone 4 was released in the summer of 2010.
    Based on this, it would be a fairly safe assumption that the next generation iPhone will be released this summer, but there is no way to know for certain until Apple makes an announcement.
    2. is there a way to like color coordinate your calendar. everything is just a black dot and was wondering if there was a way to make things more personalized.
    Which supported calendar app on your computer are you syncing calendars and calendar events with?
    With iCal on my Mac, I have two calendars - one personal and one business along with a US Holidays subscribed calendar. I have each calendar colored differently. The dot for a calendar event with each calendar matches the color for the calendar.

  • Iphone POP email question

    I have 3 emails on my phone that use POP as the IMAP has never worked with my Domain dervice.  One of my emails was giving me trouble in Outlook 2007 on my PC and I finally got it resolved.  But immediately after fixing that, my phone decided not to receive emails sent to the same email address.  My Domain company says its an apple issue. 
    Interestingly enough, when I get an email in Outlook on my PC, I immediately go to my phone to see if it downloads.  I can see the blue bar at the bottom downloading the email but it then disappears with no emails in that particular addresses inbox.  Anyone experienced this?

    Is there a setting within outlook that can leave the message in lace so that it has time to show up on the phone?  (Ie. Email Settings; Advanced ; "Leave a copyu of messages on the server"

    I have been receiving email fine on my 4. However, today I tried to send an email and it told me that no password was provided. I went to my email account and it does not have a place to enter an outgoing password. Am I missing something? Will I have to delete the account and set it up again?

  • EMail Questions

    Hey
    I can't wait 'till the iPhone hits Australia. And I want to set up my email and have it all sorted before I buy my iPhone. My question is which email provider should I choose. I am with Windows Live Mail at the moment and I'm happy with it but it's not the paid version (and I don't plan on paying). I am looking into setting up a gMail account. Can get some advice based on features, how easy it is to use, how easy it is to set up.
    p.s I don't plan on paying for any plus packages, just the basic free ones.

    Hi.
    Here is a visual tool from Gmail and iPhone. iphone can configure both IMAP and POP3 accounts.
    1. IMAP is more efficient, so here is the website:
    https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77702&topic=12814
    2. Also, remember to select the function on Gmail (for IMAP or POP) when you are signed in. Here is the YouTube Video:

  • Basic email questions

    Hi,
    Just got my iPhone and have some basic questions.
    I have three email accounts; earthlink, gmail and mac.com. Right now they are all set up as POP, not IMAP.
    If I receive an email on my iPhone for the earthlink or mac.com account, will I be able to access that same email when I check my mail using Mail.app on my Mac?
    If I send an email from the iPhone, and then synch my phone, will the sent message be synched to my Mac's Mail.app ?
    Perhaps there is a good third party guide to using mail on the iPhone. Any suggestions?
    thank you...

    The only way to keep mailboxes and messages synced when accessing an email account with different email clients is via an IMAP account and for server stored mailboxes only.
    A .Mac account can be accessed as an IMAP account with the Mail application on your Mac - the default account type with the Mail application is .Mac and a .Mac type account with the Mail application is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way.
    If you are accessing your .Mac account as a .Mac type account with the Mail application, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for your .Mac account preferences, you have the option to store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages on the server. When accessing your .Mac account as an IMAP account with the iPhone's email client and selecting to store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages on the server via the account preferences on the iPhone, the account's Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes/messages will be kept synchronized automatically between the Mail application on your Mac and with the iPhone in addition to the account's Inbox mailbox which is stored on the server by default with an IMAP account and cannot be turned off.
    You can also create additional server stored mailboxes with the Mail application on your Mac or via webmail access for your .Mac account and any additional server stored mailboxes will be available with the iPhone's email client automatically. When sending a message via webmail access for the account, the sent message will also be available automatically with the Mail application on your Mac and with the iPhone's email client.
    This is not available with a POP account.

  • Recover iPhone POP3 email?

    It's a problem. An IMAP folder sync ****-up has deleted all IMAP folders on the mail server and PC. I've no way back via the server, as the ISP don't hold granular backups of the mailboxes, and the PC's backup drive has died.
    I'd given up - but then the user tells me there's still email folders showing on his iPhone! It seems he's managed to configure the iPhone's email as POP3, not IMAP.
    So the question is:
    How do I recover the emails (and ideally attachments) from the POP3 account on his iPhone, and get them back into Outlook?
    Ideas please????
    Thanks!
    AndyK

    You're welcome.
    Email account mailboxes and messages are not included with the iTunes sync process and not included with the iPhone's backup either.
    Unless there is a 3rd party utility that provides for transferring the messages and attachments from the iPhone to your computer in a format that can be imported by or transferred to an email client on your computer, forwarding the email is the only option.

  • I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they come up in camera roll as low resolution.  How do I fix this?

    I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they have very low resolution.  First I sent them from iPhoto with highest resolution, then I transferred them to my desktop in highest resolution and added them to an email, opened the email and saved to my Camera roll.  They all look like low resolution photos.This is the exact method I have used to transfer photos in the past with my 4S and never had a problem.  What am I doing wrong?  Is this a bad camera?  HELP please!  Thank you!

    My husband has the same phone, we purchased them at the same time.  I sent him the same photos in the same email that I downloaded them from and on his phone they show up with the normal higher resolution.  Is it possible that there is something wrong with my iPhone or is there a setting that can be changed?  I'm still learning to use it.  All my other photos are of normal resolution.  Does this make any sense to anyone?
    Please help!

    Hello tcnolen1,
    It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone.  Use these steps:
    Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
