Mail remains on server

Saw that Raybo posted this question within another thread but couldn't find if s/he created a new one so...
I unchecked the download a copy to Mail with the hopes that would delete mail from the server when I download. Hopes dashed.
Is there another preference for this?

Your post is a bit unclear. Do you want to delete mail from the server when you download it? If so, go to Mail menu > Preferences > Accounts tab > Advanced tab, check the box next to "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message" and set the drop-down menu to Right Away. This will apply to all mail retrieved from this point forward. Clicking the Remove Now button will clear off everything you previously downloaded.

Server deleted e-mail remaining on iPad

Hi all, I have an odd one for you.
I have pop3 e-mail accounts that I have setup on my iPad, but from my work PC I also use webmail. I have sync'd the iPad to my mail account and all went well. When I delete e-mail on my iPad I have it set so it deletes the mails from the server and this works correctly. But when I delete e-mail using the webmail they remain on the iPad.
What have I set wrong?
I have a brand new iPad 4

Ok, here goes....
E-mail sent to my email address.
Log onto webmail and email is invisible.
Check for new email on iPad and email downloads
Check webmail again and email is still visible
Check iPad again and email is still there
Log back onto webmail and delete email
Check email again on iPad (inc. send & receive) and email is still visible on iPad
At this point on the android device the email would've been removed from the tablet

You might want to use IMAP to read mail from hMail Server, if you keep messages on server. It has a lot more features for managing messages on server.
A lot of POP3 implementations (both client and server side) will automatically delete retrieved messages. I don't know exactly what JavaMail does in that regard, nor of hMailServer, but I do know some mailservers out in the wild will ALWAYS delete mails retrieved with POP3.

HT201320 how to keep iphone4 from deleting mail in the server

Ok, I have an iPhone 4 and it is a great phone but I nee to keep it from deleting my mail in the server.

Settings > Mail > Your Account > Advanced > Delete from Server > Never
With this settings your phone will download new mail an leave the original on the mail server. You can delete mail from your phone but it will remain on your server until you delete manually or have a different device delete it.
And if it's a POP account, it will never delate

Hi,
Since you are able to send emails to internal domain i assume the application server IP address already allowed into Receive Connector.
To relay application emails to external domain you should enable Externally Secured box in the Authentication Tab of the particular Receive Connector.

HT4859 After the i-cloud server issue Nov 26, 2012, I had to change some mail account settings to get my i-cloud mail to work again. However, all of my received e-mails are gone. How do I retrieve my e-mails from the server?

After the i-cloud server issue yesterday, November 26, 2012, my i-cloud mail account on my Macbook Pro stopped receiving mail. I changed some mail account settings to fix the issue, and was able to start receiving e-mails. However, all of my historical e-mails are gone. How do I retrieve all of my old e-mails from the server?

What settings did you change, what were the changes, have you visited www.icloud.com to see what mail is actually there? and do you have a backup?

How to leave a mail copy in Server

Hi,
I would like to leave a copy of my mails in the server. I am using iMac and iPhone, configured to receive mail from the same account. Until recent times, i use to get mails in both. But, now my iPhone doesn't retrieve the mails. I went to online to check the mails in the server and I didn't find them there. I tried to do the settings in my Mail preference / accounts / specific mail account / advanced tab. But there is no option to leave a copy in the server. Such an option is available only for microsoft outlook account. Is there a way to enhance this option. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

Hi Thanks for your response. This email provider is etisalat. I am living in UAE. It is a POP account. there is no option available in Preference pan for mail accounts / mailbox behaviors.

How to best set up a mail and calendar server for a church

I am the IT guy for a smaller church of 200 regular attendees. We want to start hosting our own mail and calendar server. We bought a mac mini and installed mac os x server. So far I have enabled the mail, calendar, and contacts sections of the server but we aren't live quite yet (domain is not pointed at the server yet). My question is, I do not know much about profile manager or open directory, would those benefit me at all? I do not wish to manage devices, I just want to make the most use out of the computer as a mail server primarily. I have found some limitations on users and groups where I wish I could do more (such as creating mailing lists that include e-mails that are not hosted from within the server without creating a user that forwards to personal e-mail for every person).
Would open directory and/or profile manager add more functionality to the computer as a mail server?
Thank you

@camelot
What is it exactly open directory will give me that I cannot do with the regular software in this regard? I am not sure what you mean by a signle shared mailbox and calendar.
@cpragman
Google apps for business was something I was looking into at one point but decided not to use it. Once we grow more I can see us moving over to it but with just maybe 5 people tops having a real e-mail address it seems a little overkill. (I apologize, I omitted that from my original question, i only put in the number of attendees)
@Lincdavis
Fortunately I don't care about whether they can create it themselves or not . And your comment about creating a sharing-only user. Do you mean for every external e-mail I want in a mailing list, I need to create a user for them (with services disabled) and then change mail options to forward to their personal e-mail?
Then go back to groups, create a group that can be e-mailed, and add those users to it?
Thanks

I have suddenly got the following message An (SMTP) error occurred while sending mail. The server responded: Requested action aborted: This mail account has se

Having been on Thunderbird for some years I have suddenly got the following message when trying to send mail.
An (SMTP) error occurred while sending mail. The server responded: Requested action aborted: This mail account has sent too many messages in a short amount of time. Please try later..
I have checked the SMTP server settings in tools, account settings and they are as they have always been. Is there something I have missed?

Sending through web mail is totally irrelevant to using an SMTP server. The message even says it is from the server. Why do you think this is a Thunderbird problem.
The provider has put in place measures to keep people from spamming other email recipients using thier SMTP server. You have seen the result of those measures.

With an IMAP account, if "Store sent messages on the server" is checked does Mail only store mail on the server?

With an IMAP account, if "Store sent messages on the server" is checked (in Mailbox behaviors) does Mail only store sent mail on the server?
So should it not be checked if you want Mail to store sent mail on the server and the computer?
Thank you.
iHope

Hi Norm G,
Thanks for your comments and the link to further information.
With it checked you will get both on the server and the Mac.
I have it checked, yet when I pause the curser over Sent mailbox the tooltip says "Contents stored on server. Name on server: Sent Messages". Does this mean stored only on the server or also on the server?
What does your tooltip say?
At the moment sent emails only appear in that Sent mailbox. If Mail also stores them on the Mac should they also appear in another Sent folder "On My Mac"?
Thanks for your help.
iHope

Sending Mail to Another Server If User Does Not Exist

We have a single domain with 1 Exchange 2003 server.
Recently another (non-Exchange) server was added with about 300 users on it. We've set up those users as contacts on the Exchange server. All users have the same email suffix ([email protected])
Here is our issue: When we try and send an e-mail from Exchange to the non Exchange mail server, it fails with an NDR. It appears as though Exchange is not looking beyond itself for the user. How do you tell Exchange "If you cant find
the user here, send the e-mail to x server?
Thanks.

Here's the explanation for the grayed-out checkbox:

The second question is answered in the article I referenced. You create an SMTP connector with the domain in the address space and the SMTP server that hosts it as a smart host. That article suggests you put it in the SMTP virtual server, but
use an SMTP connector instead.

IMAP mail sorting on server?

I am running OS X 10.5 Server as a mail server. I access my mail also with Squirrelmail when on the road without my laptop. As I get quite a lot of mail, I use Mail.app to sort my mail on a client. The client, btw, has portable home directories.
So here is my problem. To keep my mail sorted when I am away (so I get sorted mail when I use Squirrelmail) I have to keep a client running, logged in as myself and with Mail.app running. I cannot keep an account of myself logged in on the server, because that would block the syncing of my portable home directory.
I would like to conserve energy. If I can sort the mail on the server without being logged in on that server, I would not need to keep a client up and running all the time. Is there a way I can do that? Specifically, is there a mail sorter that works with my (secure) IMAP mailbox on the server, can run on the server without me being logged in? I have used procmail years ago, but I would need some way to access my IMAP account securely. I'd rather have something that directly bolts on to IMAP and that reads a configuration file somewhere.
Does something like that exist?
Thanks,

This is about sorting into different mailboxes, not sort order in a view on a mailbox. But I think I have found some tools already. It seems sieve is the way to go.
