Mail is dowloading same emails after being deleted... continuously.

Upgraded to OS X Yosemite (mistake...) when first available.  Ever since I completed the Yosemite upgrade, my mail app will not function properly.  It is continuously downloading all messages since the upgrade date, even though I have deleted them and continue to delete them.  This is happening with all my e-mail addresses (no Google or Yahoo), which are @comcast.net accounts.  I have tried deleting accounts and reentering accounts to no avail.  Any help would be appreciated. 

Try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

    Have you seen this?

    A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
    If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

  • HT204003 how do I permanently delete a pass from my passbook account? (It keeps reappearing after being deleted.)

    I have a pass in passbook that keeps reappearing after being deleted. It pops up (location sensitive) despite the fact that I have disabled the location services, repeatedly. I need to permanently delete it.

    Hi, sophiaskoub.
    Thank you for the question.  The most common cause for this is having Automatic Downloads enabled on the secondary computer.  See the first article on how to disable this feature.  The other attached articles cover how to delete media from iTunes and hiding any purchases that have been made.

  • Hotmail / MSN email continuously sends me the same email after deleting

    I have an iPhone4 and I have several email account. Only account I have issues with is my MSN email account. I can get new messages just fine however if I delete the email about 2 minutes later I get a "new" email indicator and it happens to be the email I just deleted. Same time stamp and everything. I have my settings to remove from the server when moved from my inbox and also to erase the deleted messages after 1 day. So my settings seem fine but this account is annoying.
    How can I fix this?

    Still waiting to hear from anyone.
    Some of my friends with androids seem to be having the same problem. I've been keeping email's in my inbox for over a week just to delete them. This is getting annoying.

  • Mail not receiving emails after being delivered on iphone (still on server)

    Mail is not receiving all of my emails once they have been delivered on my iphone. It seems to do this selectively. I logged into my account on the web and the emails are still there (as I have not requested emails to be deleted form the server). Please help!

    On the G5, 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 these 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

  • Mail photo attachment changes format after being sent?

    When I take a photo using the iPad camera and send it as an attachment in mail, how can I ensure the photo will maintain the same format after sending it, as it did when I took the photo? Recipients of my email with a portrait photo attachment, will receive the attachment in landscape format. This also happens to photos I've taken and saved previously in photos on my iPad2.
    Does anyone know why this happens or how I can prevent it from happening?

    Denis-
    I have seen this effect on photos received from an iPhone camera.  I suggest you let Apple know so they can fix it in a future iOS update.  Go to <iPad Feedback>.
    When  saved, the side-ways photos seem to end up right-side-up, if that is any consolation.

  • Both our logins in Mail show the same email address -- should be different

    We recently changed email providers.
    Both our new emails end in "gmail.com." But we use different names/addresses/signatures. I am the main login to the computer and the wrong address shows up exclusively only when my wife sends out a message (though not consistently!). Mail handles both the addresses I myself use (iCloud.com as well as Gmail) with no problems. Howcum? How can I fix this? (FYI: There was no problem with our previous email addresses, before the change.)
    And further to the topic of Mail: often, Mail locks up and I have to Force Quit to get back to work with Mail.
    And there's another peculiar habit it has picked up. After I select some old emails, right click and ask the machine to Send to Trash . . . it sometimes says it can't. "Could not be moved to Trash." Doesn't tell me why, though.
    This is not on a level with solving the Ebola crisis. But I sure would like to get it under control.
    Thanks for any help you may have.

    Don't change a thing. You both already have separate accounts. When you set up her Mail account be sure you are logged into her account at the time. Also, you have to configure an SMTP or Send Mail server. That will be the same in her account as in your account if you both use the same email provider.
    When you each send an email from your respective accounts they may show that the email was sent by the wrong party because you have not configured who to show as the sender in Mail's preferences - click on the Composing icon in the toolbar. Each account should be made different so that her mail is sent by her while yours is sent by you.

  • Photos taking up space after being deleted?

    I have the iPhone 5c and I plug my phone in and delete all of my pictures about once every 2 months. I went to do it today and after I deleted my all my photos it said that I had 1884 photos, or 3 GB of space being taken up by them. I went on my phone and there are no photos whatsoever in my camera roll or in my recently deleted folder. Why on iTunes and in my Usage in Settings does it say that my photos are taking up so much space?

    Hello gabbylara11,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    This article should help in clearing out space taken up after you have deleted your photos.
