Mail all email as read

when configuring my gmail account, iphone downloaded all my existing email from the server. thats understanable since its a pop account, but is there a way for me to mark all messages as already read in the iphone, without doing it one by one ? there are thousands of them...

There is no way to mark all as read.
You can ask Apple for iPhone changes via this link:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html Though if you're requesting hardware changes for iPhone v2 you may want to wait a week (or a month?)...they're probably going to be inundated right now by requests for software changes to the current iPhone.

HT203216 How to mark all emails as read on the Iphone

How do you mark all emails as read on the IPhone? When I updated the IOS system it brough emails from my laptop as unread

No, there's no global 'mark as read' option.

For IMAP accounts, though, if the mail was read elsewhere, it should not be marked as new mail on the phone. This is the case for my IMAP and Exchange accounts - if I read the mail in Outlook or another mail client, the new mail mark is gone from the iPhone after the next mail sync. For POP, that won't be the case, since POP mail 'lives' on the client it's always going to be new to the iPhone even if already read in another client.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
In the preinstalled email application, you need to long press one email to mark it. When an email is marked, you can either press the emails you want to mark as read or you can press in the top left corner to mark all your emails. You can then press the "Mark as read/unread" button in the top right corner.

Ho do you undo the mark all as read as now i have 400 emails as read but i want to cancel them

Why does Mail mark all emails as read when I close it with an email open?

If I use Mail with say, Gmail, and I open an email in Mail and then later archive all email in Gmail, then any future email that I receive are marked as "Read" in the Mail app. This appears to be because when you open an email in Mail and then it no longer exists (because it's archived) then Mail moves on to the next email, therefore marking it as read because it's opening it.
Is this really to be expected? Is there a way for the Mail app to "reset" itself like some other apps do, once they close, rather than save the last state that the app was in?

Does the iPhone still do this, or no longer?

Mail - from Yahoo mail, all emails imported except from a specific date

Hello guys.
I have just linked up my yahoo pop email with my mac mail. After setting all the POP preferences and letting mac mail copy everything from my yahoo inbox to mail inbox. All emails have copied except everything from 27th of December 2009.
When the email is supposed to be set to refresh - the status bar says for a second that it is yet to copy another 400 email, but then closes and no emails get copied.
Also when i go into settings to check what emails are on the server it does bring up all the emails after the date 27th of December - but doesn't want to copy it.
here is a screenshot:

Mark All Email as Read on Palm Pre

Hi,
I'm wondering how I would mark all my email as read on the Palm Pre. I don't seem to see any options for it without going to each email separately. If that option isn't available yet, it would be greatly appreciated in an update. Thanks!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

This is a necessity. I really hope they provide this functionality in an update right away. We need to be able to select multiple emails for deletion and also to mark all as read. My business email has more than 200 unread messages and I am not going to open each one.

Mark all email as "read"

Is there a way to mark all email in your inbox as "read" without having to open each message individually? I just got the iPhone and have been unable to find this option.
Thanks for any help!

No option.

Why is there no option to select all email as read?

I've had to reinstall my backed up iphone data 4 times and each time I have to manually select all my emails and mark them as read.
This is kind of ********, selecting all of your email and marking it or deleting it has been a feature on every mobile devise for over 5 years. Why isn't it an option on my Iphone. Why is apple trying to make me buy an app for this common task to get done!!!!

Because some habitual whiner may accidentally delete all email in an account's Inbox mailbox.
You have to do this because you are using an antiquated POP account type. No such problem with an Exchange or IMAP account.
selecting all of your email and marking it or deleting it has been a feature on every mobile devise for over 5 years.
Hogwash.
It isn't an option on an iPhone to drive habutual whiners nuts.
Don't like it, according to you this is a feature on every single mobile device released over the last 5 years so you shouldn't have any problem purchasing another device that meets your most important want/need.

Mail ALL marked as read

When I logged on today Mail took a loooog time to open as is was marking ALL messages in my In Box as "read". Why did this happen? Can I revert to the state it was in before this happened?

Yeah, the stupid part is that all SPAM comes marked as unread. So I get to see that I have spam, just not legitimate mail. Ugh.

How to mark all emails as read after syncing?

hey folks,
i just synced my new iphone 3gs with my mbp and so far everything is fine except that all my mails from all my accounts (3x pop and 4x imap) are marked as "unread".
is there any smooth way to set all (~6000) mails as read? i was kinda dissapointed that the syncing was unable to get that information out of mail on its own..
hope anybody can help me here.
thanks in advance

WP7 - marking all emails as read

I wondered if there were a way to select all unread emails and mark them read? I have been trying to do this for awhile, without success. Loving the Trophy and WP7 though!
Thanks,
Rick

Don't know if this will work for you but this is probably the quickest way to do it on WP7:
Open email inbox.
Slide to the right to view all unread messages
Tap by the very left-most edge of the first message; you should then see a box next to all the unread messages
Tap each box of each unread message you wish to change the status of
Tap the settings at the bottom right corner (3 dots)
Select mark as read. Every Checked Email should get it's status changed to read at that point.
There is no "select all" option in email at this time, but the above actually be done pretty darn quickly once you've practiced it a few times.

Hello bgdesign and welcome to the Palm forums.
Lots of people, I'm sure are looking for this feature. I've asked for the ability to multiselect messages too. I don't work for Palm/HP so I have no idea when this feature might be coming to Palm webOS.
As a work around, you should be able to mark messages read in your email account when you access it from a PC and the update should sync down if you are using a Google or IMAP server. If you are using a POP email server, I don't think that work around will work.

Mail Inbox all Emails do not display sender's name or E-mail address

After the last update in my Mail all the sender's names or E-mail addresses changed into No Sender. They are real E-mails not spam or junk E-mails. Once I open the E-mail I can see the Sender's name and E-mail address. It is very inconvenient not being able to see who is the sender befoer openning it. How do i fix this?
Thank you.

I am fighting with the same problem. In conversation mode my reply shows me as "From" on the left pane. I switched to Classic view which makes life a bit easier as I can see the "Subject" line and guess that this is an email I'm searching for. Can't find the way to put name of the Sender who started conversation in the info summary on the left.
