Mail leaves a draft even after the email is sent

I recently got my mail fixed (Hide/Show) was not working, which changed my mail from POP (which I liked) to IMAP (which I don't). I don't know if that is causing the problem vs. the way Mail handles Gmail with IMAP because it was never a problem before.
When type an email and send it, it leaves a copy in my Drafts folder. Shouldn't that go away once the mail is sent?
This is more annoying than anything else but I'd like to find a way to fix this if possible.
I just check my preferences and it is set to Store Draft Messages on the Server. I don't know what that means? Could that be causing this problem?

They have been sent. It is making a draft, sometimes a day later. I don't want to have to keep going through my sent mail to see if my email went then go delete the draft. I shouldn't have to do that. It never did this before my mail was changed to IMAP.
I just checked my Mail Preferences and it says to Save the Draft to the Server.

My company email is starting to save numerous drafts of the same email even after it has been sent

Earlier today my company email (set-up in Mail) started saving numerous drafts of emails even after they have been sent out? Any idea why this is-I have talked to the service provider and they have led me to believe it is an Apple issue

There is no anti-malware for iOS, at least none that actually does anything useful. The odds of getting any malware infection via an email attachment on an iOS device is quite low - practically non-existent. Unless you are seeing any issues, there isn't much to do, other than deleting the email and being more cautious in the future.

My phone will not send emails even after the IOS 8 update. I continue to get the message of user name or password for my email are incorrect.

Mac Mail signatures work but appears at the bottom of a string of emails not after the email just composed. Is there a fix?

Signatures in email work - however they appear at the bottom of the page after all of the email that appear on the page. How can I get the signatures to appear after the email msg that I just composed?

Carolyn: Thank you for the reply, however neither deselecting nor selecting that option has any effect on the location of the signature. In both cases it will appear at the end of the string of emails.
This is a time consuming annoyance - it would seem to be an easy thing to program that the signature lands wherever at the location of the cursor???

Mail & Safari crash repeatedly even after erase 10.6.7

I came back to the Mac to get away from Windows issues but still need to run Windows. So running Windows 7 64 bit in bootcamp & using that as a Virtual Machine in Parallels 5. Bought the macBookPro 13 in April 2010. Was running fine until Feb 19, 2011. On that day, Pages crashed, going from Pages to desktop to blue screen. Over a week it & Safari got worse with repeated crashes so that it got so I wasn't even able to boot.
AppleCare & Genius bar have tried various solutions leading up to & including 2 erases--the 2nd time not even restoring much at all.
Did not even have mail set up until after the erases. All I have on the Mac side since the erases is iLife & iWork & then later reinstalled Parallels. But the crashes happened before installing Parallels. Safari & Pages crashed before erases. Since it has been Safari, mail & finder & possibly Pages & Numbers-can't remember.
Even after the erase these have continued intermittently. Have been working in Bootcamp lately since I have Outlook there & did taxes in Turbotax Windows. It has been pretty stable.
The mac has also had trouble booting & had finder crashes so it seems to be mostly the various mac apps, but not just 1 of them. Right now Safari seems to be working ok & hopefully will let me post this. But other times it crashes & then it may work fine for several hours.
Anything known that happened around Feb 19 that could lead to this?
When did 10.6.7 come out? There were some reports on the Parallels forums of possible conflicts between that & Parallels, although I think that was parallels 6 & I'm running Parallels 5.
Most of the crash reports seem to say BAD_ACCESS_SIGEV (or something like that)
& the thread is 0. This seems to be true whether Safari or Mail. Can't remember if Pages or Numbers have crashed but I haven't used them much.
I'm told Macs don't get viruses or malware, but then someone said maybe they do.
So far no reason has been found for this but the next step Genius bar is going to do is replace logic board, memory & HD. But hardware tests hadn't shown anything.
So just wondering if there might be any other possible explanations that maybe should be explored. Genius bar is taking good care of me, but this is really disrupting use of Mac & really blindsided me since my memories of Macs (& what my brother confirmed has been true with their macs) is they just work.
So before I take it in for what is hoped will fix it, but really apparently that is not known, wondering if there might be something else to look at.
Also wondering if anything on Windows side could affect the mac? I have proprietary co software in bootcamp as well as Outlook 2007 that I sync to winmob phone for biz.
But the crashes started up again after the erase before installing parallels. Bootcamp has mostly been stable although I did have 2 windows blue screens shortly after the erase.
Again, any help or suggestions would be appreciated to help get this back to what I expect from a Mac. Its also embarrassing in an office of Windows users to be having all these problems on my Mac.

There's a bit of Toshiba software that's likely not compatible with Mountain Lion:

I'm afraid there's no answer here other than asking Toshiba when they're going to update their software.

I do not receive notifications for my email account even though the email setting in Notifications is turned on. How can I fix this?

In iOS 5 I do not receive notifications for my email account even though the email setting in Notifications is turned on. I do receive other notifications. Does anyone have any suggestion on what is wrong or how I should correct it? Thanks.

Hey M0904,
I found the following information regarding troubleshooting notifications, I'd run through them and see if they resolve the issue:
iOS: Understanding Notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
Troubleshooting notifications
Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you are not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
Verify that the app supports notifications.
After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app at least once to begin receiving notifications.
If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
If you are still unable to receive notifications and you are using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that the network or firewall is not blocking access to port 5223.
Have a good one,
David

I must be more specific:
I am attempting to send a vcf from a Windows Computer using Outlook to another Email account that syncs with an iPhone. When I read the e-mail on the iPhone, I can't see the vcf file. But I can see the contact on outlook as a VCF.

When I send an email with Mail, I often confuse the account which I'm using. The result is that I send a message with the wrong account! Is there a way to avoid this (for example a reminder before the email is sent)?

When I send an email with Mail, I often confuse the account which I'm using. The result is that I send a message with the wrong account! Is there a way to avoid this (for example a reminder before the email is sent)?

Hi, thanks for the answer, I did that already. Unfortunatly this doesn't help me at all, as I often forget to check the menu. For me composing the message is writing the text, the subject, the person to who is addressed and than press "send".
I often forget to check the "from", and this is a problem because the software select itself one of the accounts.
Isn't there a way at least to put as a default a blank field instead of one of the accounts? or an account which doesn't work so if I forget to specify the "from" I will be rnotofied that the message can't be sent.
I guess this could be a rather common problem for many people!
Thanks

In F110 the payment document is calculating discount even after the

Hi,
I am executing F110 and in the proposal list the documents are calculating discount although the payment date is much beyond the discount allowable period.
For example - We are having a payment term which says if payment is made withing 14 days then 5% discount is allowed and after that no discount.
But when we execute payment program(F110), it is calculating discount even after the due date. whereas if we pay to any vendor through manually using tranaction code - F-53, it is working fine and calculaing cash discount accordingly.
But in F110 it in not. Can anybody help me on this.
Earlist reply will be highly appreciated.
With regards,
Sree.

Hi Dinakar,
Firstly i am using a payment term which is having the following condition-
- Within 14 days 3 % cash discount
- Within 45 days Due net
Also i gave the run date, posting date and document date as 04/15/2008.
The Invoices were gererated on 03/30/2008. So after 14 days it should not calculate discount, but it is calculating that.
Please let me know if i can help you by providing any other details.
Regards,
sree.

Look at these bugs even after the .757 update

With a very large update like that, I thought all the bugs that I was experiencing would be solved.
However, it is with a frustrated heart that I share to you that all the built in apps bugs that I've experienced in Walkman, Movies, and Contacts app are still here even after the "major" sound bug update.
Look at this:
This used to work in 4.3 before. When I search for certain info with Gracenote, I get that error message even though I am connected. This only happens for particular titles like "Thor", "Pacific Rim", and a whole lot of others. It is still very frustrating. Could you try enter those titles and see if you get that kind of error message?
I recently downloaded the Movies app with the new UI, but again, the bug is still there.
Here's another one:
I store a lot of music. And it is a huge annoyance that the "speed scroll" bar at the right side keeps on disappearing. As you may know, the Walkman features a "speed scroll" that looks like a thicker bar that allows you to skip-browse tracks with ease. With 4.4 and the new update, this still hasn't been solved!
And another one: My Phonebook contacts' photo have been replaced with a SIM card logo. The problem goes away if I do a reboot, but it comes back after a few minutes!
Please please please do not tell me to do a hard reset, repair via PCC/SUS, or run in safe mode. I've done them all already. As a matter of fact, I have factory wiped and repaired my Z1 a total of 14 times since the 4.4 update.
Now with the .757 sound bug utpdate, these problems are still here. I know they're nothing really major but they just ruin the aesthetics. I wanted my Z1 to be perfect. It used to be back in 4.3. Now it's just plain crap.
Has anybody else been experiencing these bugs too? Anyone? Please?

my phone is still laggy too ! i try clean reset with sus 10 times but nothing changed..bugs and problems still exist

Process chain is running even after the 'No Schedule After' date

Hi Experts,
          On 19th sep, we scheduled a process chain where the scheduled start date is 20th sep, 07:30:00 and no start after date is 22 sep, 00:00:01. The periodic value is 'Daily' and there is no restrictions for this load.
         But yesterday the process chain ran at 7. We checked tbe jobs that triggered and found that the start date and no start after date is changed to 21 and 23 respectively.
        But the last changed date for the process chain is 19th sep only.
        Anyhow, we removed the process chain from schedule. But, I want to know the reason for this load that loaded even after the 'No start after' date.
       Please help me to know why this issue happened...
Regards,
Yokesh.

I also have been caught by this option once : the "do not start after" is here to avoid problems of scheduling : let imagine your system can be stopped, for any reason, so the scheduling will be postponed. In this case, it avoid, for instance, to load data during the day. It's not for running a PC for only a certain period of time.
