Is is possible to have my forwarded icloud on gmail sent messages appear in my icloud sent mail?

I'm sure many people have wondered this... being fed up with the slow speed on the icloud web mail client I forwarded all my meesages to gmail and was able to set up gmail to use my icloud email address when sending and all is working pretty well.  The only issue is if I send a message from gmail using my icloud smtp settings it doesn't show up when I go back to my icloud accout's sent mail.  Those messages always stay in gmail. 
Question:  Is it even possible to have this gmail forwarded set up somehow report back to icloud on sent mail too?  It seems like it would be possbile but I just don't know how to make it happen.  I don't want to have to make a rule to send my old mail a copy of every message to send to myself and then have duplicates of everything so looking for a real solution.  I checked out the google help pages with no luck so thought I would reach out to you guys.  I'm sure someone on here has gotten this work correctly right?  Let me knwo if what i'm describing isn't making any sense.  Thanks.

I'm afraid it's not possible. Even if you've set GMail to send using smpt.mail.me.com the actual messages are created on GMail and iCloud knows nothing about them.

  • ICloud email - Sent Messages using up storage, multiple "Sent" folders

    Several questions about iCloud email that I cannot find answers to on Apple's KB articles:
    First, my situation.... I have the standard 5gb account and use it primarily for email and do not backup to iCloud.  Right now my Account Info in OS X Mail shows 0% usage in the graphic, and no info next to "Currently in Use" and "Total Available", which does not agree with what System Preferences reports (300 MB of usage my iCloud Mail).  That's a separate issue and most likely a bug in OS X.  One of my "Sent" folders is showing the majority of this usage.  My primary issues are as follows:
    1.     I have iCloud email setup on my iPhone, iPad, and Mac, all systems running latest OS X and iOS versions.  Why are there 2 Sent folders, and two Trash folders showing in Mail?  Why is there a Deleted Messages folder on my Mac Mail app if I already have a Trash folder?  On iPhone and iPad I also have 2 Sent and 2 Trash folders, as well as the web interface if I log into iCloud in a browser.  This is not logical to me at all.
    2.     Why is my Sent folder taking up so much space?  Currently it is showing the most usage by far.  I don't keep emails around and keep my inbox very small.  But I see that the Sent folder has messages from January 2013 in there.  What's Apple's method for a user managing their 5gb of iCloud space as far as Mail is concerned?  Do they expect me to go to my Sent folder, of all places, highlight all the messages, press Delete, THEN go to the Deleted Messages folder, and the hit trash again?  I find it hard to believe that Apple expects users to perform this set of tasks to free up space.
    3.     Is there a way to have only ONE Sent foler, and ONE Trash folder, synced across all devices?  This, to me, would make the most sense and would fit with Apple's reputation for simplicity.
    Thanks in advance folks!

  • Is it possible to have editing fonction like italic or character in colour when I enter a mail?

    when I enter a message (E-Mail) I want to have different size of characters, different colours and also italic.etc.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access web mail, you need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

    you can do it if you're not using JMS - by using the native API for the messaging product.
    otherwise - I think you can't do it.

  • I plugged my iPhone 4S into itunes. It said it was times for my iTunes update and IOS update. I clicked yes and it said it will have to restore iPhone. Then a message appeared later saying Error. It was no longer visible on itunes! Now it is stuck!

    It is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen. Itunes won't see it or my computer when I try to connect!!!!! I am freaking out. I got my old iPhone. Plugged into iTunes and it did the same thing! I Deleted iTunes. Then downloaded apple, but it won't recognize my phones as plugged in! HELP!!!

    If you're in recovery mode, all data is ALREADY lost.  You've no choice but to restore.

  • My IPad shows I have 1.1GB of mail and attachments. What am I not seeing? I have went into each account and deleted messages from all folders (inbox, sent and trash). It still shows that I have that much space used.

    I could really use some help. Probably an easy fix, but I can't seem to figure it ou. 

    Hello Kizzyk,
    I would start with taking a look at the settings to make sure that you are able to send and receive messages. If everything looks good then the next step would be to remove the accounts and add them back in. Take a look at the article below for more information and details on how to troubleshoot your issue further.

    Log in on iCloud.com and go to Mail. In Mail, at the bottom left you should see a gear icon. Click on it, go to Settings (or Preferences, I'm doing this from memory), and in there you'll find an option to forward your iCloud email to another service.

  • Why can't I see my sent messages in iCloud online?

    Why can't I see my sent messages in my iCloud Sent mail box online?

    You may need to go to icloud.com, open Mail, click on the gear-shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, then on the General tab confirm under Mailboxes that you have checked "Save sent messages in" and selected your "Sent" folder.

  • TS3276 I have snow leopard: my mail changed so I now have to double click to read a message.Want it back so can preview before open.

    I want to get mail back like before: I could single click to read before fully opening inbox message. Now have to doubel click. Also the message appears before who it is from. How do I switch columns back whre want them in order of From/message/date received. Also  "color" markings changed. It stays bold black until I double click not just single.

    Hopefully this helps. And hopefully I haven't misunderstood your question. For the issue of the location of the various headings (From, Subject, Date, etc...) you can simply grab the particular title bar and move them to the location of your choosing.

  • HT3376 I have a Yahoo plus account. When I set up the mail account the Bulk Mail (Trash), Deleted Messages,Draft,Drafts,Junk, and Sent Folders all appear on my iPhone. Is there a way to prevent this?

    I have a Yahoo Account. When I set up the mail account the  Bulk Mail, Deleted Messages, Draft, Drafts, Junk, Sent, and Sent Messages appear on all of my iPhones, my PC, my Macbook and any other wifi product that receives mail. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of these duplicate mailbox folders??
    Thanks

    I just called apple care to even know how to respond to this answer. I am very old and this was my first post ever. I appreciate you taking the time to give me an answer. I also ask them how to delete this account because every time I log in it wants me to change my password and I have run out of passwords. I don't even know what it means when it ask me the community I want to be in.
       The only thing I know about syncing is syncing my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. I apologize that I am so technically stupid. Does mail have syncing???
    Thank you even if I never figure out how to get back to this site again.

  • HT1353 Is it possible to have another iCloud login on my unit without me logging into that account?

    Is it possible to have another iCloud login on my unit without me logging into that account?
    I lost my iTouch4 last June10 after a party. I stayed in a hotel with my team that night when i lost it --- lost in the hotel not in the party. I just got my new iPhone 4S this June25. When i used Find my Phone app i saw that there are 2 devices: ipod (named after one of my teammates) and iPhone (under my name). whne i check the features of my iPhone, the contacts, calendar, bookmarks and apps i downloaded previously on iTunes are sync to what i entered on my iTouch. My teammate told me that he also noticed that on "his iPod" and he dont know why his apple ID was changed to mine.
    Is it possible to get that situation? Or is that an evidence that he has my iPod touch 4?  I need help to clear things out. Thanks.

    - I do not understand what yo are seeing with the FIndMyiPod app. That app can set up to find any iOS device. you just have to enter the Apple ID and passwords used for that device.
    - on your computer go to iCloud, sign into your account and go to FindMyiPhone. What do you find?

    There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that.  You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

    Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
    Unlikely. But nothing is impossible.   Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.
