Mail app in iPad - how to delete outgoing message

I am trying to set up my POP accounts in my iPad.  It's a frustrating process.  I still haven't got it all working right.  But what's bugging me right now is that I have two messages that I tried to send as tests to see if the POP accounts were working.  They're not, and for the past 2 days the iPad insists on trying to send them every 5 minutes or so.  So about every 5 minutes I get these two error messages telling me that the messages couldn't be sent.  I can't find them anywhere to delete them, they're lurking somewhere in the iPad screaming because they're trapped and can't get out.  Please help them.

Hi Judy.  Thank you for the thoughtful reply.
The Sent Folder is not the problem.  (This comment doesn't appear here but did appear in the email I received.)  The messages don't even appear in the Sent Folder because they haven't left yet. 
I had already read the iOS: Unable to send or receive email article.  This information did not help me.
I have read the Apple - Support - iPad - Mail Assistant article and have tried turning on a different SMTP server, one that is working, for the account that is not working.  Curiously, it is the same server.  I have two email addresses on the same server.  One works, the other doesn't.  Could this be the problem, that I've entered the same STMP server twice instead of simply using the same one for both accounts?  I tried turning on the one that works, but can't find a way to elimiate the one that doesn't work.  The problem is not solved, the test emails are still in limbo and I'm still receiving the error messages.

  • Multiple gmail accounts in mail.app via IMAP - how to delete messages

    multiple gmail accounts in mail.app via IMAP - how to delete messages so that they are not stored on gmail and not in All Mail therefore either.
    i know that dragging messages to the GMail.Trash folder deletes it in Gmail, but doing that for multiple accounts is a hassle!
    anybody else struggle with this, solved it?

    i have still not figured out a solution to this. very painful - the fact that messages iwill not be using ever again and with large attachments, just sit there in all mails and slow down mail.app for me, fill up search results with stuff i don't want to see and fill up space on the HDD. the attachments as a result often are stored 3-4 times on the HDD!
    some geek here must have solved it - come on!

    You should watch the tutorial videos if you have not.

  • Yahoo! Mail in Mail App on iPad 2 iOS 7.0.3 Shows Unread Message Count

    Yahoo! Mail in Mail App on iPad 2 iOS 7.0.3 shows unread message count when the Inbox is empty.  This has been an ongoing issue since iOS 7 rolled out.  I was hoping with this latest update that this problem would be fixed.  Just wanted to report it.  If someone knows where bugs get reported, I'd appreciate the link.
    None of my other mail programs have this problem.
    I perform a reset (holding down the Home button and the Power button) and sometimes this clears it out and sometimes not.  Plus, I don't want to reset my iPad on a constant basis just to clear my mail count.
    Any insight or additional information is appreciated.

    I think it's an issue with yahoo. I have the same basic set up as you and will open my mail, see that I have 4 unread for example, read them, exit mail and have the red bubble still reading 4 unread mail. Usually it catches up and corrects in a little bit.
    Probably jus a glitch between yahoo and the mail app and not much you can do as a user but wait it out or get used to it...or I understand that there's a yahoo app if it really bugs you.

  • Since updating my Iphone 4 I cannot figure out how to delete old messages.  There is no edit button.  Can anyone help?

    Since updating my Iphone 4 I cannot figure out how to delete old messages.  There is no edit button.  Can anyone help?

    By "sending" do you mean sending email?
    If so, what app are you using to take the photos on your iPhone 5? Or are the photos from a different source (saved to your Camera Roll from somewhere else, like a web page or Messages)?
    My guess is that Mail gives you the option to send different file sizes when it detects you are trying to Mail a really large photo file. The size of photos on the iPhone 5 is really big and some email providers may stop your mail from being delivered if attachments are too large. Thus, Mail tries to help you by offering to resize the photo.
    I suspect that if you are sending smaller files, Mail does not bother giving you options to save a smaller version. In fact, I have seen this behavior. So, if the photo is already "small enough", it gets sent as-is.
    To my  knowledge, there is no global iOS setting for this. Some apps may have different rules, of course.

  • Since I upgraded to IOS 8 whenever I use kensignton bluetooth keyboard iin any mail app it scrolls up whenever I type message and I cannot see what I am typing.  Is there a fix?

    Since IOS8 upgrades I have had problem with my iPad Air whenever i use kensington bluetooth keyboard (an older one) whenever I type in body of mail message.  It scrolls up so I cannot see what I am typiing.  this is true on comcast  connect app as well as mail app in iPad.  Problem does  not occur when i use keyboard in iPad air screen.  First occurred with IOS 8, then disapeared wth later IOS 8 update, but has returned with most recent IOS 8 fix.
    I have reset all settings, but problem persists.

    I suspect problem is related to older Kensington keypad, however, I did see on a Google discussion group that someone suggested some changing of settings on iPad.  Trouble is, I cannot find that group again.  Any thoughts?

  • How to delete the messages in the purges folder?

    if the mailbox is enabled the single item recovery, then the messages would move from deletion folder to the purges folder After running the following script,
    Search-Mailbox dave -searchdumpsteronly
    -deletecontent
    so my question is how to delete the messages in the purges folder with some script or retention policy?
    Please click the Mark as Answer button if a post solves your problem!

    Thank you all,
    As the mailbox is enabled single item recovery.
    I just want to make the items neither in deletion folder, nor in purges folder.
    So I think there are two ways to achieve this.
    Method 1,disabled the single item recovery. then delete the items in deletion folder ,so it wouldn't enter to the purges folder, it just deleted permanently. then enable the single item recovery
    Method 2,delete the items in deletion folder,then the messages move to the purges folder, then delete the messages in purges folder.
    the Method 1 is not so good ,as it need to disable the single item recovery firstly, then enable  single item recovery .
    So I want to use the Method 2

    Check out the documentation on "expire". Since I don't know what version Messaging server you're running, how can I point you to the right documentation?
    Both Messaging 5.2 and 6.2 have a way to automatically expire messages.

        backpack12,
    Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.

  • How to get rid of "no sender" in mail app on iPad?

    I am not able to delete the "no sender" messages in my mail app.  They are adding up.  I appreciate any help you can give me!

    If you have no sender/subject emails dated 31/12/1969 then try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
