Mail app won't permenently delete mail

It deletes the stuff on the email accounts on the net, but it wont delete stuff its downloaded onto my comp. I select it, and delete it, and then when I come back to the mail app, its there again. Ive tried the erase deleted mail option, but it still shows up the next time i got to the mail app. Any ideas what to do?

Interesting that it works fine in Safe Mode, but the problem returns if you start up normally again. The following is what I usually suggest as a first step when Mail freezes on launch. I wonder whether it’ll work for you as well...
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations, and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
Finally, try launching Mail under the following conditions (you may need to force quit it first if it’s running) and post back with your observations:
1. Holding the Shift (⇧) key down until the main window appears. This tells Mail to not select any mailboxes or load any messages upon start up.
2. With no Internet connection.

App won't completely delete.

Deleted app keeps showing up in available downloads. How do I remove from downloads list?

Yes. Issue began when I tried to update the app. It wouldn't completely update. I didn't really want the app anymore, so I deleted it. Now it keeps showing up.

Apps Won't Stay Deleted

I deleted a few apps from my 16GB iPhone 3G to see if it would start up faster (it takes about 3 minutes sometimes). i deleted last.fm, ebay, paypal, dice bag, NY times, urbanspoon, solar quest, box office, and apache lander. when i turned the phone off and back on (it took 2 minutes 30 seconds this time) most of those apps had returned to the phone even though i definitely deleted them. the apps that came back were ebay, paypal, dice bag, last.fm, apache lander, and urbanspoon. i deleted all these again, turned the phone off, then turned it back on. paypal and apache lander were gone but the rest were back again. i repeated the entire process again. this time only last.fm remained. so i tried again and deleted PegJump and Dreigit as well as last.fm. the start up took 2 minutes 10 seconds. last.fm was gone but the other two were back. whats going on?

well you would think that pressing the X in the corner of the app and confirming that you want to delete it would get rid of it completely from the phone. it even says "Deleting __ will also delete all of its data." yet some apps mysteriously return. i think its a glitch of some sort.

How do I permenently delete yahoo bulk mail folder on my iMac?

1. No.
2. You either buy a download code for Mountain Lion from the online Apple Store or get Yosemite from the Mac App Store.
3. Game Center isn’t part of 10.7.5.

Mail app won't show photos

This problem exists in all three new iPhone 4s's in my family: The Mail app won't display some photos attached to emails. Some photos show up, others don't. All are jpeg's with the proper .jpg appendage, all are relatively small files (approx 200kb). The ones that show up and the ones that don't are the same in all three iPhones. The photos all do show up on desktop and laptop computers. On the iPhones, in Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calenders/Load Remote Images is turned on. I tried turning the setting off, then on, tried rebooting the iPhone, nothing works.

lou tetl,
The list in iTunes under the Info tab is the list of accounts you can transfer the settings for from your computer directly to the iPhone.
It is not a list of the accounts on the iPhone, or a list of all accounts on your computer.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Mail.app won't work properly after installing Yosemite

My "new viewer window" in Mail.app won't work after installing Yosemite. I can not access the viewer window and thus none of my email.
How can I fix this?
Mail.app v 8.0

some updates on this issue, Mail application uses the same proxy that has been set on your system (system preferences==>Network==>Advanced==>proxies). People usually use HTTP/HTTPS proxy for surfing the web. You should make sure to set SOCKS proxy as well. Mail application works with SOCKS proxy. Note that port number for SOCKS proxy is usually different from the port number for HTTP and HTTPS but the IP address of your server (apparently) is the same.
Hope this helps

My mail app won't open.

My mail app won't open. If I click on it it pulls up a blank screen and closes itself. It's an iPhone 5s running iOS 8 how do it fix it?

Reinstall iOS 8. Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings.

FaceTime HD app won't go any further than verifying my e-mail address. After it is verified nothing happens, no contact list no links on page. It restarts then ask again to verify my e-mail. It returns a verified then cycles again. Can't make a video cal

Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

Mail app won't open

Mail app won't open from icon -- any ideas

Hello,
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.

Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

Try close all inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe up on the screenshot of the app you want to exit.
3. The app will fly off the screen
