Mail being deleted from server without permission

For about a week now my iphone has been downloading email from my email account which is a live.co.uk. When i log on to my email on a computer on the server all my message that have been download have been deleted without my permission. I check the setting and i have not select them to be deleted from the server it say never delete. I have restarted my iphone but yet it has helped.
Can anyone help as this an issue as some email need to be keeped on the server and not delete to the trash can.

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.

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

Email access via POP3 not being deleted from server

I have sync'd my phone to my Verizon.net account and everything seems to work great... except one thing. When I delete the email from my phone a copy of it still stays on the server. Unfortunately it is the Droid X and unlike the blackberry it does not give me the option to select to delete it from the mailbox as well. Is there any way to make a setting on my verizon.net account that will provide for better sync'ing? I would like to have my email both on my PC and on my phone - but the point of accessing my email on the phone is so that I can delete the junk and keep what I need to ... this is making me have to do the work twice.
PS I searched through the threads for a similar issue and only came across one. However, the topic was closed by an admin stating that the issue belongs in the wireless community. I'm not sure I agree with this only because the issue has to do with accessing verizon.net mail via POP3 more than it does with the phone being used to access it (I would think anyway). In any case if anyone has some input on this I would appreciate it.

AFAIK, the device in question would have to "delete from server when deleted". The web page (server) has no way to know when you delete it from the phone. The computer can do this, but without that feature on the droid, I think your stuck.

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....

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.

Deleted pop mail not deleted from server

mail retrieved from pop acct & deleted, and trash emptied, is not deleted from server, so it gets re-retrieved.
settings>delete from server> when removed from inbox, but the msgs are still on the server as viewed from the isp's web interface.

been there, done that;-}
Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.verizon.net
Incoming Server Port Numbers: 995
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net
Outgoing Server Port Numbers: 465
it seems mail.app is designed for imap, in that msgs can't be deleted when d/l'd by default, but must be config'd "when moved from inbox"

HT3228 My Bellsouth/Yahoo mail automatically deletes from server on my iPad Mini. There is no option under Advanced to change this to "never". This does not happen on my iPhone or my Mac.

I have a new iPad mini. My Bellsouth/Yahoo mail account deletes mail from the server. There is no setting under Advanced to change delete from server. this is not a problem on my iPhone or MAC, only the iPad. It is also not a problem with my other mail accounts.

Because Airplaying to a Mac natively is not supported.

As discussed in the article, newer Macs can AirPlay to an Apple TV or Airport Express.

Email downloaded to iPhone is then being deleted from server

I have set the iPhone "Delete from Server" option to "never", but when I download messages to the iPhone, it is still deleting from the server. Incidentally, the same happens for my iPad).
This is a POP account.
Have I configured something incorrectly or is this a bug?

Although it is possible to access a POP account with more than one email client, a POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only.
If you created the account with the Mail app on the iPad or iPhone using the Gmail account preset, the account was created as an IMAP account on the device.
When accessing an account with more than one email client and the email account provider supports IMAP account access, best to access the account as an IMAP account with the email client on your computer (Outlook) and with the Mail app on your iPad and/or iPhone. All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account. Send a message with the Mail app on your iPad or iPhone, and the message will be available automatically in the account's Sent mailbox on the other device and available automatically in the account's Sent mailbox when accessing the account with Outlook, and vice-versa. This is what an IMAP account is designed for.
A Gmail account can be accessed as a POP or IMAP account, and now as an Exchange account also with the iPhone's Mail app which provides for Push access with received messages and for syncing your Google online contacts and calendar events over the air with the account on your iPhone.
A POP account is from the early dark ages of email account access with an email client on a computer when most people had access to a single computer and well before there were any phones in the smart phone category and well before there were any handheld cell phones.

POP mail not being deleted from server

I am brand new to the MAC world, I just got my first MAC Book Pro Sunday (switching from a PC). I was successful in setting up Mail to connect to my POP mail account (comcast) and everything so far look great, but when I delete an email and remove it from the trash it does not remove the email from the comcast server. I hope this is just something I am missing in the config being a new user and not knowing what I am doing, I do not want to have to log in to my comcast and delete my email twice.
Thank you in advance,
Corey

Under the advanced tab I have the following options
Checked:
Enable this account
Include when automatically checking for new mail
Unchecked:
Remove copy from server after retrieving a message (I did not check this because I still want to keep my mail on the server except when I delete a message then I want it deleted on the server)
Thank you for your reply,
Corey

Messages not being deleted from server

I have read through some responses to other people in this forum who have had this problem but nothing helps. i just upgraded to 10.3.9 and didn't change my mail preferences which have always been to delete a message from my server when it is moved from the inbox (i.e. when i hit "delete").
this always worked fine in tiger but it is not working in Panther.
any suggestions out there?

My messages do not delete from the server either

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

IPhone deleting mail from server without permission?

Hi,
About 3 weeks ago mail which is delivered to my Iphone started to disappear from my mail account. Now I have my Iphone set to never delete mail from the server, yet it appears that some, not all are getting deleted.
I have read some posts which say to delete the mail account from my phone and re-create it which I have already done, but this did not solved my problem. It is a pop account so I'm confused as to why this is happening.
Any help greatly appreciated.

I have Deleted Messages under Advanced set to Never, but do not have anything available to change about Server settings under Incoming settings - just SSL, Authentication, IMAP Path Prefix, and Server Port.
As already provided, this is an IMAP account.
All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account. You can select to store the account's Drafts, Trash, and Sent mailboxes on the server or locally, but the account's Inbox mailbox is stored on the server and cannot be changed.
When deleting a message from the account's Inbox mailbox with an IMAP account, the message is removed from the account's Inbox mailbox on the server and transferred to the account's Trash mailbox. This will be reflected automatically when checking the account's Inbox mailbox with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
If you have the account's Trash mailbox set to be stored locally, you can try transferring the messages from the account's Trash mailbox back to the account's Inbox mailbox so these messages will be available when accessing the account's Inbox mailbox with the email client on your computer.

Email being deleted from server

When I delete a message from the inbox on my iphone it gets removed from the mail server (I use Yahoo bizmail). So, If I delete a message from my iphone before checking the mail on my mac I don't get the mail on the mac.
I've tried deleteing and restoring the mail account on the iPhone. I tried an IMAP account on the iPhone. I have DELETE MAiL set to NEVER in mail settings. I restored the software on the iPhone and started new. None of that worked.
Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks

Im kind of having a different email problem. Not all emails load to my phone and when I view and delete them, my hotmail account doesnt even realize Ive logged in. Everything stays as though I havent been there and new emails pile up.

HT2480 email not deleting from server when deleted from ipad

messages are not being deleted from server when deleted from ipad

Hello,
You need to tell us what the email service is. BES? BIS -- and, if so, what email provider? If BES, then see your BES admins. If BIS, then expect it to function in accordance with this KB.
Otherwise, you can try the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS conduits for the affected email accounts.
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

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
