Mail deletes iCloud s/MIME settings

The following problem occurs when selecting a certificate for my iCloud account in Mail 6.0:
I selected the right certificate from the dropdown list and saved the settings then I restarted Mail. When I then send mails the Mail App uses a different certifice. I checked in the settings and I get asked if I want to save the changes even though I didn't even had the chance to change anything. It doesn't matter what I click but the settings for my s/mime certificate is gone. But even without an entry in the settings the Mail App sends the wrong certificate.
This happens only with my iCloud account not my other accounts. And this happens on my iMac and my MacBook Pro (both with Mountain Lion).
Does someone has an idea what I can do about it. It drives me crazy!
Thank you

I stopped using the S/MIME certs and stopped signing my emails. Too many recipients were receiving them as "attachements" especially if the recipients email account was on an Exchange server. My certs have since expired and I have not done anything to further analyze the situation. My original post was over a year ago and I have long since been on Mavericks.
To: iddontknowwhoiamsowhat ... I am not totally following your response. You say you are seeing the exact same issue - yet you are also saying you can look at the sent mails from os x and ios - does this mean that you see the security badges on the sent emails in both os x and ios? I assume you are on Mavericks?

How to stop ios mail deleting icloud email from mac mail?

This is driving me insane.
I have an icloud email address set up on my iphone and mac mail.
I want to leave emails on my phone 'on the server'. Read them when i'm out, delete them... come home and have them all come through on mail where i'll deal with them.
Right now if I delete them on my phone, they're deleted on mac mail also.
I have all my regular email addresses set up to do this. Except the one icloud address I want to move everything to!!!
Help!!!

Hello there David DW,
It sounds like your iPhone does whatever your iPad does with regard to joining or forgetting a Wi-Fi network. From what you are describing it seems to me that iCloud Keychain is enabled, as this is a function of that feature. The only way to stop what you are seeing from happening is to disable iCloud keychain on one of the devices:
Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website usernames and passwords, credit card information, and Wi-Fi network information up to date across all of your approved devices that are using iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later.
You can do this in your iCloud Settings:
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn on or off iCloud features.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

How do I change icloud email when my apple ID has been updated to new email? Because of the update on apple ID, when I try to delete icloud account I have to put in the password, and it says username or password is invalid (because no longer apple ID).

How do I change icloud email when my apple ID has been updated to new email? When I try to delete icloud account (in settings-icloud-delete account) I have to put in the password for the apple ID of my old email address, which is no longer my apple ID, and it says username or password is invalid (I'm guessing because that is no longer my apple ID).

You will wait for the rest of your life. You need to fix it; no one else will. To turn off "Find my iPhone" and its associated Activation Lock you need the Apple ID and password that were used to turn it on. If you know the Apple ID you can contact Apple Account Security and have them reset the password (after you prove you are the rightful owner of that Apple ID). see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.
If you don't know the Apple ID the phone is permanently unusable.

I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that (settings/usage) it was using 900 mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.

I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that it (settings/usage) was using 900+ mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, turned the phone off and back on, downloaded any remaining mail on the server to Outlook on my computer, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.
Background: I recently (December) bought an ipad and set up icloud for contacts and calendar, but NOT mail. My email provider is Verizon. I use computer, iphone, and ipad to check my email; eventually I download it from the server using Outlook on the computer and then delete any remaining emails from the phone and ipad. I can't find info on this problem anywhere.

Howdy there COUGAR444,
It sounds like your iPad all of a sudden seems to be restarting out of no where. If you haven't called AppleCare yet, I would start with quitting either the app that seems to be causing the issue, or all the apps if a single doesn't seem to be the culprit.
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes, then restore it as new and verify that it works.
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself.

HT4623 My iPhone will no longer connect to the internet or download my mail from iCloud. The software is OS6 and I have plenty of storage space on the phone and iCloud. I have checked all the obvious stuff in settings and can't resolve the issue.

Since late September my emails stopped arriving on my iPhone. Access to the internet via Safari now only ends in a message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding" I don't recall changing any settings and have checked the settings many times to try to figure out whats happening but without success. Ideas anyone?
Thanks

This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is preventing the backup from succeeding. To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

I had a MobileMe account before... after upgrading to iOS 5, should I keep my account info under iCloud (settings) AND under mail, contacts and calendars (in Settings as well) or only keep the info under the new iCloud setting section?

That's not the correct port. It should be 993 for incoming.
If you signed into iCloud from the System Preferences, it should automatically create the iCloud account for you in Mail. Sounds like it is an account you already had set up for MMe in Mail.
Open Mail preferences, open the Accounts tab, disable that account in the advanced pane.
Open Sys Prefs, open the iCloud tab, and sign out of iCloud. Then sign back in and see if a new iCloud account is automatically created.

MIME settings in reciever mail adapter.

Hi,
We are trying to send the emails from XI system through SMTP adapter to a legacy system.
The Legacy system wants file in the MIME format.
At the XI end we have done the java mapping for the email configuration. Also, the configuration has been done to set the outgoing message format as MIME.
The issue is the legacy system is not accepting the mail sent by our system.
The issue has been found in few files. As in the legacy system is accepting randomly some files sent by our system.
Please advice whether the error can be at the XI configuration end or it is at the legacy system end.
Appreciate your quick responses.
Regards,
Alpa.

Hi Jyothi,
The MIME settings was there in the reciever mail adapter.
Please note that the system was working fine since last month.
The legacy system was recieveing the data sent by XI system since last month.
There has been no changes done at the XI end and the reciever adapter end till now.
Moreover now some files are being accepted by the legacy system.
for eg. lets say if the system sends the files in sequence-1 2 3 4 5
Randomly the legacy system is accepting file 1 and 4.
We dont see any difference in the way the files are being created and sent in the XI end.
The legacy party is claiming that no changes has been done.
So wanted to know where to look for the possible cause of error.
Regards,
Alpa.

Can you do setup an unread mail folder that shows all unread mail regardless of what folder it really is in on the iPhone mail program somehow?
No.
If not, can this be submitted as an enhancement as it makes email use very cumbersome.
Yes. You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

HT4759 How to turn iCloud on & says check email & no mail and says go to settings, but for what?

How to turn iCloud on? Says check email-no mail then says go to settings- for what?

In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified. To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link. Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

ICloud Mail, deleting all mail.

I have been using the iCloud mail from quite sometime now (Sense the first iPod Touch) and I have noticed it has grown quite a bit from the first release of the iCloud severs came out with the mail option and there is nothing that has shown me how to delete all mail from the server on the system and it is kinda heard to delete my Gmail n' iCloud mail with the combination of over 3500 E-Mail on file from the server in my inbox so is there any possible way to delete all of the mail?

You Gmail wouldn't be on the iCloud server; iCloud only hosts iCloud email. To delete your iCloud email, open your mail on icloud.com, click a folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, scroll down and shift-click another email to select the range, then click on the trash can icon at the top. You will get an error if you try to select too many at once so you'll have to experiment to see how many you can select to delete at a time. Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash. When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the upper right and select Empty Trash.

Cannot get mail using iCloud. Says no password provided for iCloud, to go to Mail Account Settings and enter a password, even though I've already done this. Very odd.

I doubt you are doing anything wrong. First day glitches
Reset the device.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Make sure you have Mail selected here > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

Yosemite Mail deleted all my outgoing server settings. Any way to retrieve them?

Yosemite Mail deleted all my outgoing server settings. Any way to retrieve them?

What is your email provider (e.g Gmail, Microsoft, Yahoo, Comcast, AT&T, etc...), and what email client software are you using (Apple Mail, Thunderbird, Outlook, etc)?
It's likely far easier to just Google the correct settings for your mail provider and recreate the outgoing (SMTP) settings.

HT201342 Is there any way to find a log of the send e-mail from ICloud.. to analyse how many email has been send and deleted within a day from send items

Is there any way to find a log of the send e-mail from ICloud.. to analyse how many email has been send and deleted within a day from send items

Thx Winston,
I can count the send item. But let me try to explain why did I ask this question.
I had a trouble in sending e-mails from icloud on 22/2 and when I saw in my send item there were no emails.
But the mesgs to whom I emailed received and out of which only few of them didn't got the email. So I wanted to know the log abt the outflow of the mesg with subject and the receipants email id and the list with attachment or not.
How and where will I get the information apart from send item and draft mesg and the outflow undelivered?
Regards
Sarfaraz
