Limit of email download

I am trying to transfer my email from using gmail on the web to gmail on Mac mail. It downloadeds everything up to 2011 but nothing beyond that.
Can anyone guess, or maybe suggest how I can update the mail client to be fully up to date? Is this a setting?  Maybe a setting in gmail or is it a setting in Mac Mail?

I have just taken delivery of my Pre and PeterMW's 2009 unanswered question is the key issue I was searching to get a definitive answer for. 
I often travel outside of my home country and wish to minimise data roaming fees. But if, for example, a relative decides to send 10MB of pictures of the family and I hit download, it seems I get the whole data dump without being given the option of just scanning the header and body text. This both chews up much time on slow, overseas networks, and also costs big coin.
As per PeterMW's question, is there a way to limit the download size of each individual message as is the norm with all the other mobile devices I have used? If not, then sadly I have to conclude that this is a pretty unappealing device for those who have passports....
Thanks all!

  • Can I limit POP email downloads to last 25, 50 or 100

    I currently have thousands of emails on my pop yahoo acct which I use online. Would prefer to use on IMAIL also but cannot restrict this download to a partial amount. Any suggestions. Works nicely on IPAD2 and IPOD; Why not MAC also. Am I missing some settings?

    maneff, what you are describing was how my iphone and email worked. If i read it on outlook it would not show on iPhone. If I read it on iPhone first it would show up on Outlook as unread the first time I opened outlook after I had used the iPhone.
    However in the last week after I had to reinstall Outlook and iTunes the two are no longer working like they were. Now I am getting every email coming into my iPhone as unread regardless if I have read them or not in Outlook. Basically my iPhone is now mirroring my Outlook except where a rule is set up to move a recipient's mail to another folder where I now do not get that on my iPhone, again that did not happen previously, everything came into my iPhone regardless if it had a rule applied to it or not.

  • Limit email downloads while roaming?

    Hello
    When I am roaming I would like to limit my email downloads, to just download headers, or just the first 5k, like I used to be able on my Treo. Even being able to set "no attachments" or "no images" would be great.
    Right now I'm finding my email charges while roaming are huge, because I get a lot of email that really isn't crucial, but I have to download it all in order to see the messages that are.
    How would I enable this?
    Thanks

    Here is what I have noticed with attachements.
    I can test and send an attachment to myself from PC to iPhone accuont that it is checking.
    Open Mail App. It checks and says connecting...etc. I see messages show up.
    Get the Ding.
    Shortly after that the paperclip will show I got one with an attachment.
    But then the progress at the bottom goes away. However, if I don't go into that mail message and just wait. The progress indicator at the top will start and will process and process and process. Once that if finally done. If I open the message. The attachment will be there already downloaded. Only if one goes into a mail message around the time it arrives (before it had time to download) have I seen it say attachment is there but not downloaded (or at times it will take time and process and download on open).
    I have just found (from my experience) that if you don't go right into email when an email with an attachement arrives and let it sit it will eventually be there when you do go check.
    Now this also happens when I don't open the mail app at all. As I described in one of my earlier posts. I listen to music/podcasts on FM transmitter in my car. I get the now and then interference for txt, grabbing new cell etc. When new email arrives (I don't seem to get interference with just checking...odd) but when new email arrives I hear the itnerference (longer than txt interference) then it stops, I get a ding. But I will leave it there as I don't need to be reading email while driving. But if an attachement was included, then it will start to process again (long time with interference...could be minutes if big attachment especially while moving and jumping towers). I have had to pause playback as it is just unbearable. I have at times gotten fed up knowing it was a huge file that I can get later and gone and turned of my email after having gone into mail to press and hold home button to force quit it.
    All my accounts I check are POP.

  • Mail 7.0 - limit email download

    I want to add an IMAP-account to Mail. Since I've used this account for many years, it contains thousands of emails and several archive folders, and I really don't want to fill up my SSD with that.
    There used to be a "Don't keep copies of any messages" checkbox in Mail's account preferences, but this option was removed in OS X 10.9. There's also no way to limit synchronization to a certain time frame or specific folders.
    I am aware I can exclude attachements from being downloaded, but still it's a lot of data.
    The same problem exists in iOS 7: You cannot limit the email download to a certain time frame as in iOS 6.
    (This actually means I cannot use Mail on my iPhone or sync Mail with iCloud if I don't want to fill up a big part of my phone/cloud space with email data)
    Does anybody have solution for this, or an explanation for the removal of these features?

    Found this:
    I did discover that, if I drag the message into a local folder in the "On My Mac" section of Mail, then I can remove the attachment.

  • TS3899 In ios7 how do you limit the number of emails downloaded from your ISP server?  Previous version allowed you to limit it to 50, 100, etc.

    In ios7 how do you limit the number of emails downloaded from the ISP server?  Previous version allowed you limit the download to the last 50, 100, etc.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, this is a feature that Apple have taken away.
    The best way to let them know you want it back is via http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Windows 8.1 account limit problem when downloading from store

    windows 8.1 account limit problem when downloading from store        
    I have 250 windows 8.1 tablets.
    I figured since you can use the same account on 81 devices id create 4 accounts.
    I need to download more than 25 free apps from the store
    on each tablet. Putting the same account don't work. (comes up with an error after putting on to many devices that you cant use this account now).
    Whats the best way to do this ? and what if I need to download a paid app ?
    Thank You.

    Hi,
    As far as I know, One Microsoft Account may bound at most five Trusted computers. There is no way to break this limitation.

  • POP email downloading already deleted emails on iPad 1

    On my iPad 1, I will look at and erase email in my Verizon email account, but emails I have erased will often be re-downloaded again, sometimes almost immediately. It is very annoying. Sometimes it will re-download emails from days before. Does anyone else have this issue with a Verizon email account or any POP email account in Mail on the iPad? Is there some way to fix it?
    I have my settings for this account to delete from server when removed from inbox.

    Thanks for the response. However, the problem isn't that I get the same emails on multiple devices, that's something I am used to with my Verizon email account. Rather, the problem is that I am getting the same emails on the same device, specifically my iPad and iPhone 4S, emails that I have already viewed and then deleted on that device.
    So, I will receive an email A, it shows up as a new email on my iPad with the blue dot next to it.  I will view that email A, thereby making the the little blue dot disappear, and then I will delete email A from my iPad. Then, next time I open Mail on the iPad, it will connect and download the very same email A, marking it once again as new with the blue dot. Rinse repeat. Sometimes, it will redownload these emails even without me closing Mail and reopening Mail; it will just redownload them right after I've deleted them in the same session. Sometimes it will redownload emails from days ago that I deleted off that devices days ago.
    This never happens on my MacBook version of Mail, only my iOS devices, and it's very annoying, as you may imagine, because most of these are pointless adds and filler and I like to keep a relatively small limit of emails per account on these iOS devices.

  • Mail app problems (duplicating email downloads)

    in my Mail app, i am having a problem with receiving "duplicate" emails. i will get an email, and after in downloads to Mail, the "spinning circle" (next to the INBOX icon) keeps on spinning...then a duplicate of the email downloads. to stop the "spinning circle". i have to "force quit" Mail.
    i have the option with Road Runner to get emails from their "WebMail" website. when i log-in, i see the email that is duplicating in Mail...plus other emails that has not been downloaded in my Mail application.
    if i delete the "duplicating email" in RR Webmail, and launch Mail again, the "other emails" that i see in RR WebMail will download.
    and if there are other new emails, the whole scenario will go over again in Mail.
    i talked to a Road Runner technician and he tried to find a preference in the Mail app that will allow Mail to give a bit more time for Mail to download emails with larger attachments (2mb and up). he said that Mail is not giving enough time to download the larger emails, so it is "bottlenecking" the large email and other emails after that.
    Just wondering if anyone knows about this problem, or if anyone knows if there is a preference in Mail to "extend" the download time for larger-sized emails......
    thank you....

    I am having this same problem. How did you solve it?

  • Why is there a 30 day limit for email on the Playbook

    Sorry this isn't really a support question but I was wondering if anyone knows why they maintained the maximum 30 day limit on email etc for the Playbook.  I kinda understand the logic for a phone (although it would be nice to have the option of all my mail) but I use my playbook differently and really need all my mail not just the last 30 days.

    Thanks so much for the best of all of your choice by email again then we will not receive this email is not responsible or so of this tag only one I have been the best time for your help and the next level of risk from you again and learn how much you owe.

    can sombody help me?
    Thanks

    David,
    The comma is the operational separator for the 'IN' clause, so you are right, the filter sees each part of the name as a parameter. Just use something else as the separator (like a space) and you will be good to go.

  • How do I limit my email to show only the last 50 as in previous versions?

    I updated my phone and now I do not see how to limit my emails to show the last 50 only as I did in previous versions. Anyone no how to do this and to select all for deleting emails?

    Hi Katbat,
    I think I've *almost* found out how to do this.. sign up for "BC Backups". Sync file with your dropbox. Open the backup file "Orders" and it will show the columns below. Maybe you can cross compare it with the BC report to get your other columns?

  • Manual Email Download w/ Latest OS

    Hi all - I'm new here :-)
    Day 2 with a new BB Q10 and so far it's great!
    I'm pretty tech savvy and have set up my POP3 email account as well as the SMTP etc.. and eveything works.
    I set the POP3 account email 'Sync Interval' to "Manual", assuming this would allow me to check my email ONLY when I wish to do so as I don't want email downloaded to the Q10 unless I have a good reason to check it. I bought the  Q10 primarily as a phone and not as an email tool.
    With my desktop email program I delete email on the server after downloading, so there's never a lot waiting for downloading. But I do get the usual spam + "friends" who enjoy sending 5-10MB image attachments of their cat (sigh) and I don't want these eating into my Data plan while on the road.
    The problem:
    Despite the 'Sync -> Manual' setting the Q10 still downlloads whatever's on the mail server.
    So -- the questions are:
    1) How can only get/sync the email ONLY when I want to?
    2) Can I temporarily disable that email account altogether and reenable it without having to re-enter all the settings?
    3) Once downloaded, can I delete emails without opening them and being exposed to what they might contain?
    4) Are there alternative email programs available for the Q10
    Thank you any help with this.
    Russell

    What you can do with the email is to set when to sync your can also go to settings and toggle the switch to data plan in order to save data!
    The data plan is already off as I'm on my local wi-fi. But I still end up downloading emails that I then appear to have to OPEN if I want to delete them.
    Is there no way to delete emails without opening?
    What about deleting emails that may contain a dangerous payload?
    The set to sync every "24 hours" will work only for 24 hours. I'd prefer to set it to something longer (->7days). But when it does kick in it will still download whatever's waiting online.
    Why not a Sync ON/OFF option?
    Or why doesn't the "Manual" sync setting bahave as it suggests?
    If this is a bug then I'm happy to just wait for a fix. But I was hoping there was already a setting that I had overlooked.
    Thanks for your suggestions nonetheless :-)

  • Limit the email attachment size XI

    Hi All ,
    I am working on a requirement . I did an extensive search on this(SAP Notes, SDN and on the system itself) but couldnu2019t find any such functionality provided by SAP.
    1.  CCMS configuration for the ability to check emails being sent out of Sap that exceed a certain threshold i.e. 5+MB for an attachment.
    The only thing that I could figure out was that we can limit the email attachment size (SAP Note 837300) but this is not what is required.
    Wanted to check , whether someone is aware of any such functionality. It would be really helpful.
    Thanking in anticipation.
    Warm Regards
    Amit

    Thanks Michael .
    Anything I can can do with the payload size in XI .
    I can get the payload size from sxmb_moni tcode. Can I generate alerts based on payload size ,again I am aware that we can limit the size of the payload ,but can we generate something based on payload size.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Amit
