IPhone is deleting home email

I am not signed up for mobile me nor is my wifi turned on and yet when I delete mail from any folder on the phone it is mirrored on my MBP. This never happened with my 3G, any thoughts?
Thanks, Rick

Being connected or not being connected to an available wi-fi network has nothing to do with this.
Who is the email account provider for this email account?
Is this email account a POP or IMAP account?
If you have more than the account's Inbox, Drafts, Sent, and Trash mailboxes available when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail app, this means the account is an IMAP account. All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account.

My iphone is deleting my email

all of a sudden my iphone is deleting all of my emails from multiple accounts

How do you know your iPhone is the cause of this and for what type of account - POP, IMAP, or Exchange?
Are you also accessing the accounts with an email client on your computer?

Iphone 5 deletes my email off laptop

Iphone 4 deletes exchange emails if they are read on desktop

My iphone 4 is receiving my exchange emails but as soon as I read the emails on my desktop computer, my phone deletes them. I do not have Outlook set to view "unread" messages only. It is set to read all messages. It was working fine last week until we switched to a new Exchange server. Three other people in our office have the same iphone 4 and their exchange accounts are working fine. Same thing happens on my ipad so it has to be an outlook setting somewhere. Thanks for your help.

Hello,
I would 1st speak to your corporate IT department maybe there is a setting within outlook that needs to be set, as far as you iPhone I would go into setting>Mail> tap the account in question>advanced there is a delete from server setting there you may want to disable.
Good Luck!

IPhone 5 - deleting individual emails

I have configured my new phone with 3 accounts. At the bottom I see a flag, a folder a box a return arrow and write. If I am scrolling through invididual emails, at first I clicked the box and I had the option of delete, archive and cancel. I deleted some junk. Now, the delete options no longer appears? If I go back to my inbox and click edit at top right, I can click several emails and then select move and trash. That's fine, but when you are scrolling through seeing what's what, it'd be nice to delete right there and I see no option to do that. Phone is one day old.

Nope! No trash can. Tap edit doesn't work. I happen to be in the Gmail account now and I see L to R a flag, folder with a down arrow, a file box, a left pointing arrow and a compose. Earlier, I could have sworn when I hit the box icon, it had a delete (red) archive and cancel option. Now I only see two. It is as if I deleted my "delete" if that is possible. No trash can. If I go into Outlook Exchange I see the trash can. If I go into "all inboxes" I don't see anything until I tap on one. I get the trash can with Outlook and none with Gmail. Can't tell with iCloud, I don't have anything in there yes. I guess I should try that. It appears to be a Gmail issue.

TS3899 My iphone 6 deleted all emails by itself - 3 times. Help ?

When I check my mail now, I'm never sure there's going to be anything there. 3 times over the last month and a half, I open my mail, and there's zero mail - nothing! Nada. Zip. all my past email messages are all gone. Bizarre!
It's set up to retrieve from my mail server service as an imap.
If I go ahead an check my mail, it will start retrieving mail from this moment forward. But it's like there is a toilet flush button that gets pushed, and flushes out all the existing mail. ?
Anyone have an idea what the H is going on?

Are you using the mail account on other devices as well?

Iphone 4s deleting emails from POP server

Hi,
Does anyone know how i can stop my iphone 4s deleting my emails from the HOTMAIL server when i delete them off the phone?
Thanks

Yes, they have changed the settings in iOS5
Check this page: http://windowslivehelp.com/solution.aspx?solutionid=6ae4b9c2-1c01-4e9c-bdc5-12da 8728f4c2
My POP account still has this option, but it's not a hotmail account. Maybe you should set up the IMAP version for hotmail accounts.

IPhone is deleting emails automatically

My iPhone is deleting my emails after a certain period of time. I move emails to a folder I have named 'To Keep' for a reason but they are still being deleted. They are on my email account on the computer but don't stay on my phone. Please help.

Go to Settings>Mail, Contact, Calendars. Select the account. Look at "Mail Days to Sync". What does it say?
Messages will be deleted from the phone, but left on the server after the specified time period to conserve space. You can set it to "No Limit" if you want.

How does one delete all emails in iOS 8?

Since there isn't an option to mark all for deletion, I am tired of checking or swiping each individual email to delete. I tried the technique of marking all read, checking one email, press/hold move button while unchecking, moving what appears to be all my mail selected and watching it slide to the trash; but when I check trash to delete all from there, it's empty and all the mail is back where it was. HELP! Am I missing something (I am an iPhone newbie but not a techie neophyte) or did something this simple get overlooked?

There is no option/settings on the iphone to delete all email message. You would need to go to edit - then select the emails you want to delete.
if you have an imap email account, you can do a mass delete on your computer and it will reflect on your iphone.

What app iphone can manage all emails

I am looking for a way to manage my email with my:
Iphone
Ipad
PC outlook
Exemple I am on a business trip and check my email on my iphone and delete 3 email and flag 5 emails
And instany it would do the same at my office on the PC Outlook
Can any one help

Hi,
Mail applications work slight different than an app like calendar, but it very easy to manage your mail through all devices/computer.
As Allan stated, you need to have your mail set up as as IMAP or Exchange. If you are using POP for your mail, you cannot easily have all devices managed automatically.
To put it simply, POP Mail is stored locally, so runs independently, where as IMAP and Exchange mail, store the mail on a server, so each device that is connected to it is automatically updated to the same state. Examples of IMAP accounts are iCloud and Gmail, however, most service providers offer IMAP services.
Flagging of mail is currently available on the iPad and iPhone. When you have an email open, touch the Mark link and you are presented with Flag/unflag or Mark/Unmark. If your mail is set up as say IMAP, when you flag a message there, it updates your other devices. I cannot test Outlook as I do not use it, but see no reason why if the mail accounts are running as IMAP or Exchange, why this would not work too.
Hope this helps

My new iphone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete it on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.

My new iPhone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete the email on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.

POP does not support synchronization between the server and clients. You will need to use IMAP or Exchange Active Sync if your email provider supports it.

When I delete an email from my iPhone 5 it is also automatically deleted from my Home PC and my Providers server. Can I stop this happening?

When I delete an email from my iPhone 5 the mail is also automatically deleted from my home pc on Windows Mail and also my providers server.
How can I stop this happening?

That's the way IMAP and Exchange accounts work. They synchronize the message store completely between the server and all clients.
If you don't really want to delete it, then don't delete it. File it into a folder instead.

TS3899 just got an iphone 5s today, now all of a sudden when I delete an email on my phone, it also deletes it on my home computer? I don't want it to do that - any ideas?

Hi,
Just got an iphone 5S today. Now all of a sudden when I delete an email on my phone, it also deletes it on my home computer - which I don't want happening............any thoughts?
Thanks.

Assuming that Chris is correct, you can set up the account on the phone as a POP3 account. This will allow you to delete mail from the phone without deleting it from the server, but it also means that you will have to delete mail from the phone separately, so you will have to delete mail twice, once from the phone and once from your computer.
If you want to do that see: Forcing creation of a POP or IMAP email account
