Mail being deleted from my btinternet account

I was using a mail sever 4ukmail which i paid for but since changing over to BT i am now using their own free email client,
When i have a new email it appears on my BTinternet inbox on my Macbook (2007) and iPhone 5s but if i delete from my iPhone it deletes the message from my Macbook and from my BTinternet.com sever so i lose all the Inbox and Sent emails.
IOS 10.10.1
iPhone 8.1.1
Mail 8.1
I like using the built in mail service and it never had a problem with 4ukmail emails i have look in all the settings and cannot find any options to 'leave on server' or do not delete Macbook when i delete from my phone.

Tried another email program and it still reacts the same way when i delete it deletes from the server making use of email almost useless i never keep emails on my iphone but they were always left on the mail app now they get deleted from the phone, macbook and the server......
Does anyone know if apple are trying to sort this out i am sure there used to be an option to leave messages on the server now i can find no such option and a couple of times i had a problem connecting to BTinternet then after a couple of goes it connected..
Mail is really screwed up after the last update

  • E-mail being deleted from server

    Hello,
    I have aol e-mail and use my iPhone and Outlook Express configured. Everything's working great except one issue. My e-mails are being deleted from the server after a month or so. I can't determine if the deletion is because of the number of messages or the time on the server. Is there any way to prevent this? I am not sure if it's a setting w/ Outlook Express, the iPhone or Outlook Express.
    Thanks,
    Shauna

    Well, I use the full blown version of Outlook, and right now I'm on my work computer and it is a laptop using Vista so I don't have Outlook Express on here. However, I would imagine that it is in the Accounts section. This is where you set the parameters for the mail account. You can look there, or I can check later on after I get home. Maybe someone else that uses OE can chime in here and get you the location.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Issue with emails being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders

    Hi, I am experiencing an issue where emails are being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders when the weekly Sunday night purge of the Yahoo Trash folder is carried out by Yahoo. These are mails that have been moved from my inbox via the iphone mail app.
    I have a similar problem with Outlook 2010 on my laptop but not with Outlook 2003 on my desktop.
    When I move the emails from my inbox I have noticed that using Outlook 2003, the moved email is left in my inbox in "strikethrough" mode whereas on Outlook 2010 it is deleted from my inbox. I subsequently purge the marked email from my inbox in 2003.
    I am able to see and access the emails in the folder I have moved them to until after midnight on Sunday when they dissappear. The emails moved via 2003 are ok and not lost.
    Funnily enough when using an earlier version of the iphone mail app I remember that I could see emails in "strikethrough" mode in Outlook 2003 when they had been moved via the iPhone mail app but you don't see that now.
    It feels like some sort of pointer issue to me ...... any ideas on how to stop this happening?.

    This is now fixed !!!! I am not sure how though :-((
    I reported the problem to Yahoo and in the process of them investigating the issue my sub-folders suddenly became invisible via my IMAP connection and then also were invisible on-line following a log out and a log in. After my initial panic, I contacted Yahoo who were able to restore my complete account. Since then, the problem has gone away.
    I have been testing this for two weeks and all is working perfectly from whatever device I use to connect to my mail (IMAP or via my browser).
    Phew!

    This might be a problem as it is a company mail account that I no longer work for.
    Could I...

    Then using ICloud, retrieve all the data lost in the restore?

  • Why is mail being sent from wrong account

    I am trying to send mail from a specific account, however even though it is showing as the correct account when it is received it is from my partners account.  I have followed the @mail@ set up and checked everything - which appears to be ok - but it is still wrong somewhere.  HELP please.

    I am having this same issue.  I have several accounts (all .live) which I use for my various different jobs.  Frequently now I am sending a mail, or replying to a mail, and it is being received from the wrong account.
    - I check the account at the top of the mail that I am sending is correct.
    - the mail listed in my 'Sent' folder shows as being sent from the correct account.
    - When a client replies to my mail, the reply comes to an incorrect account, and on their email the heading for my original mail shows the incorrect email address & name.
    - the email accounts seem to be random - not always the same incorrect one is used.

  • IPad Mail not deleting from server

    Does anyone else have this problem? I have my mail accounts set so that they should delete emails from the server as soon as they are deleted from ipad. It doesn't seem to work though.. as I just came back home after a trip and all the dozens of email messages came flooding into my Mac inbox
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Do I also need to delete the mail on the ipad's mail trash perhaps...

    SO SORRY for not responding.... For some reason I have not been getting emails saying there are replies to this topic.
    As it happened, I thought I had solved the problem, but I haven't...
    In the settings for my email accounts, I am offered the option of my emails being deleted from their server as soon as I delete them from the iPad email inbox. However, when I choose this option, they are not deleted.
    DAVID I do not have the setting that you describe available for my email accounts either... It seems that different setting options appear according to the nature of the email account that is being set up.
    It is clear to me that the way I have set things up is correct for what I want though, as it's very clearly stated in Settings... It's just not happening....

  • Emails being deleted from my inbox

    My iphone mailbox is randomly being deleted from my iphone.  My yahoo account on my pc is not affected but I think the deletion may happen when I access my yahoo account on my pc (thankfully its not being deleted here!). I view my yahoo account on my pc via outlook. Can anyone help?

    Your PC is set up to access your e-mail using POP3 instead of IMAP. POP3 deletes messages from the server after downloading them by default. Change the e-mail client on your PC to IMAP instead of POP3.
    This is not a problem with the phone.

    I have 4 email accounts in apple Mail.  My mail is sending from the wrong account.  even on "reply" it sends from a different account.  I have 3 gmail accounts and one exchange server account. I choose which account to send from and it still sends from the same gmail account.  Help.

    I HAD two accounts because of this problem.  I completely removed the problem account from the Apple Mail client.  Guess what is happening??  That's right - Mail is still sending from the other account that no longer exists on my computer, and I have absolutely no idea how this is happening.  This is incredibly frustrating.  When a recipient chooses to reply to my message, quite often I won't get it now because it is going to the other account that has now been deleted from my system.  COME ON APPLE!!! WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS???

  • HT204053 My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop items being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?

    My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop phone contacts being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?
    Also this works when one of us downloads an app it appears on the other iphone

    You need to use separate iCloud accounts. This will mean that you can both have your own separate contracts and calendars and put an end to them being deleted by each other.
    Whether or not you have a separate iTunes account, is up to you. If you have a separate iTunes accounts you will not be able to access the music, books, apps that have been purchased by the other. This may be exactly what you want, but it also means that you both may end up purchasing the same item.

  • My deleted emails on iPhone 4s are not being deleted from server

    I'm facing a problem with my iPhone 4s when deleting emails. Unfortunately, they are not being deleted from the server. I tried setting the account in pop and imap with settings to delete from server and trash ticked. Still they keep on appearing in Outlook which is a double work to do. Please advise.

    I'm no expert by far, but have had issues with this before.
    IMAP should allow your iPhone to remove messages from the server.
    But have you made sure both the iPhone and Outlook are connecting via IMAP?
    If your iPhone does remove the messages from the server, but your computer is using POP, then the computer may download the email before it is removed form the server by your iPhone.
    This was my issue, that my computer had already downloaded the message, and POP does not check later if it is deleted.
    If you delete a message from Outlook does it disappear on the iPhone?
    Alternativly you may need to check the email server settings.
    Who is your email provider?
    They may be able to check if IMAP allows you to remove emails.

  • When I delete an email from my Ipad it deletes from my Outlook account also.  How do I stop this?

    How do I stop my email from deleting from my OutLook account when I delete them from my iPad?

    Outlook is an email client, not an email account. If your email account is a POP account
    Go to Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your email account>Advanced>Delete from server>Never.
    If your email account is IMAP, you can't prevent that. IMAP accounts sync across devices.

  • Approx 700 Files being deleted from file server (server 2003) without permission

    Hello,
    We had a problem with files being deleted from our file server.
    We lost approx. 700 files across approx. 40 directories from the file date codes between Nov. 30 2014 and Dec 3, 2014. All files before this date were not touch.
    Our Dec. 1 backup had all of the files. Our Dec. 5 backup only have files before Sept. 1 2014 and after Dec. 3, 2014.
    My question is how can this happen without going to each directory and sorted my date cade and delecting files from this date range.
    Does anyone have any other ideals on how this could of happen?
    Thank You
    Bert

    I have an iPhone 5 and email that is being deleted from trash is reappearing in trash a few minutes later.  Has anyone experienced this problem?  Any suggestions as to how to correct it?

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

  • Keeping photos from being deleted from folders

    I am wondering if there is a way to keep photos from being deleted from a folder if they're deleted from the library, like some kind of safeguard. Here is my dilema: I import, say, 50 photos from shooting a band. I choose 5 of those 50 to add to my 'portfolio' album, and no longer need all 50 photos in my library, as they take up much space. So, I select all 50 photos as a group in the library and delete them, but lose the 5 that I put in the 'portfolio' folder. Is there any better way to clean up my library, and not lose the portfolio pictures, short of going one by one and deleting only the ones from the library that I know I don't want to keep? Any imput is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.

    Hi chado404,
    The albums only point to the photos within them, meaning if you delete from the library you are also deleting any of those photos from the album also.
    If you take these 50 photos in a photo shoot, do your deleting first then put the remainder in an album. To help you, you can give the photos you want to keep a star rating. When you are done, select all as a group, then command click on the photos with the star rating to de-select just those, then delete the rest.
