Mail Mac has deleted all my emails from the server..how to get them back?

Mistakenly, I've changed the options in Mail app in Mac, which says "Remove copy from server after retrieving a massage" Immediately, and it deleted all my emails from the server. Is there anyway to return all my 3000 emails back to the server? cuz I want to access them from anywhere :S it's a hotmail account.

You can create a new IMAP account in Apple Mail, and move all the messages to the IMAP folders. They are synced with the server.
I don't know if hotmail supports imap though, I would prefer Gmail.

  • Lost all my email need to know how to get them back

    The computer was on and the cord was pull from the computer. Reconnected the cord restarted the computer everything is fine but my email was lost (all of my emails ). My email is with cox cable they could not help me. I have an HP Pavilion Elite HPE 450f with windows 7 operating system

    Since the emails are from Cox cable and Windows 7 does not provide an email client software, what software was being used to access the emails? Also since Cox cable did not help, I assume that means that the emails were no longer residing on their servers.  If the computer still works OK expect for that you cannot find the emails, they must still be on the computer somewhere.  We just need the software name to then search for the folder.

    Hi,
    I would suggest you to uninstall Adobe Reader using the cleaner tool and then re-install the latest version.
    Adobe Cleaner Tool:- Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs.
    Latest version of Adobe Reader:- http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    If you still experience the same issue, please share the following information:-

    Back from where?
    You choose to not copy them off to a computer as they are designed to be.
    If they are no longer showing in iCloud, they are gone.

  • Blackberry Z10 has deleted all my emails from all my accounts..​.also it has deleted emails from server side (OS Rev. 10.1.0.418​1)

    It's happened a bad thing.
    My Z10 (OS 10.1.0.4181) has decided to delete, from all my email account , each emails from july to today!!!! It's unacceptable!!! I have paid 700 Euro for a smartphone that delete my email?! It has deleted also emails from the server!!!
    WTF!!!
    Who pay for damage that I had?! So Blackberry, wake up! I am so disappointed!
    I pretend an answer from blackberry!!! Now!!!!

    Hey alexsgv,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    What type of email accounts are added to the BlackBerry Z10?  Are they all POP3 and IMAP accounts?  Also when a message is removed from the BlackBerry smartphone it will remove it from the mail server, this is by design.
    Did you do any software updates recently?
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.

  • J deleted a few notes from Notes. Can I get them back?

    Tonight my daughter wanted to borrow my iPad, so I deleted a few notes from the Notes App I didn't want her to read. Because the iPad is on my iCloud account, the notes were also deleted from my iPhone 4S. I need them back! Can I undelete them somehow? I did back up to iCloud yesterday. However, I don't want to risk any other data loss on any other apps such as photos or texts (either type of text), by doing a full restore. I'm okay with going back to yesterday by restoring to the icloud back up, but will EVERYTHING  come back? Is there any other way to get my deleted notes back?

    Try restoring from a backup before syncing in Itunes.

  • I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the mail "file" has 2GB. How can I permantely delete this information from my iphone4?

    How can I permantely delete email information from my iphone4?
    I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the Mail "file" still has 2GB...

    Does anyone have an answer to this problem? It's been 4 or 5 days now and iCloud still says I have 0kb of 5GB available, and 6.1GB of mail on iCloud. I guess that's better than yesterday when it said I had 8.3GB of mail. Does anyone know if it simply takes Apple a week to actually empty a mailbox?
    thanks in advance, hopefully tomorrow it says I have only 4GB of non-existent mail and I can start using it again...

  • I add my comcast email to the mail on a iMac running Maverick. It downloads all my emails from there. How do i get my email to delete of the the server

    I add my comcast email to the mail on a iMac running Maverick. It downloads all my emails from there. How do i get my email to delete of the the server

    Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.

  • I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

    I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues.  They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
    You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'.  In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.  Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

  • HT6030 Mac Mail 7.1 has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server

    I have suddenly realised (over the past 2 weeks) that Mail has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server, at first I thought it was just that no-one was sendfing me any, however, I created an Account with Thunderbird and suddenly received dozens of them. I've tried many of the "googled" fixes but none seem to work for me....
    Can anyone help me to get my Apple Mail performing correctly please.

    Do a backup.
    Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there. 
    Information learned from Linc Davis. leonie also supplied some information.

  • Mac Mail deleted inbox messages from yahoo mail, how to get them back?

    I recently started using the Mac Mail client with my yahoo-plus email account.
    What Mac Mail did was delete ALL inbox messages from my yahoo account, after one week from importing them to Mac Mail.
    The inbox messages can still be found in the Mac Mail inbox, but not in yahoo's inbox.
    I was wondering if there is a way to retrieve these deleted messages back to my yahoo inbox.
    Also, I was wondering about the sync feature on the Mac Mail and what will actually happen if I use it. Does it apply to mail messages, or to address book and calendar entries?
    I would appreciate you help on this issue.

    The Yahoo server did exactly what you Mail program told it to do.
    Mail/Preferences/Account/Advanced - This setting is adjustable for each mail account.
    I didn't know about this feature until it was too late. I have already unchecked it for future emails.
    I was wondering if there is a way to retrieve these deleted messages back to my yahoo inbox.
    Not Really, you could forward them to your account, after you've told your mail program not to delete the emails at all, but they will show up as being from you instead of the original sender. The originals at Yahoo have been dumped and probably purged. It would take an IT manager at Yahoo to manually replace the emails, not much chance of that.
    I've already asked yahoo to "restore" my inbox to a day ago. That should help me with retrieving some of the messages back, I hope.
    Also, I was wondering about the sync feature on the Mac Mail and what will actually happen if I use it. Does it apply to mail messages, or to address book and calendar entries?
    The sync feature refers to IMAP email accounts like .Mac or .Me or an Imap gmail account. I didn't think Yahoo offered IMAP email accounts.
    Apple's MobileMe membership will let you sync your Mail, AddressBook, Calender, personal website with iWeb, etc.
    "MobileMe is a service that pushes new email, contacts, and calendar events over the air to all your devices. So your iPhone, Mac, and PC stay in perfect sync."
    http://www.apple.com/mobileme/
    I wanted to use Mac Mail, see if I liked it or not, then decide to get a MobileMe account. However, this is still a side note, since my yahoo account is my main email client.
    You seem to be very well informed, and I was wondering if I can ask you to clarify a point for me. Do you know how to archive the inbox in the Mac Mail?
    And thank you for answering my queries.
