I have the same problem when downloading emails from an exchange server connected using activesync. I figured if the symbol "&" is anywhere in the Subject line, the email content does not get downloaded to the iphone or iPad. The interesting point is that on Android handsets the same issue exists except the body of the message is downloaded to the handset but any attachements dissapear. So, this problem must be related to MS Exchange.

A possible fix to messages not being downloaded from the server?

there is a previous post about this that has been archived with no solution. i googled this problem and found only a bunch of people saying "yeah, i have this problem too". so i'm posting this to see if my theory helps anyone.
the error on my new 3g iphone read "the message has now been downloaded from the server" after i set my exchange account to push emails to my phone. so i checked my calendar to see if that synced up. i noticed that my date was all wrong. so i went in to general settings and fixed the date. once i did that i was able to read all my emails from my phone.
to test that i set the date to be a year from now and i got the same error. i changed the date back to the correct day, restarted my phone and i could download all my messages once again.
my theory is that typically servers do not like a dissonance like that between it and the device it syncs to. could anyone out there with the same issue confirm or deny this possible fix?

Messages not being deleted from server

I have read through some responses to other people in this forum who have had this problem but nothing helps. i just upgraded to 10.3.9 and didn't change my mail preferences which have always been to delete a message from my server when it is moved from the inbox (i.e. when i hit "delete").
this always worked fine in tiger but it is not working in Panther.
any suggestions out there?

My messages do not delete from the server either

Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately.

Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately. The incoming server details haven't changed; the Connection Doctor shows the accounts are connected; I've turned everything off including the modern. Have exhausted my limited knowledge. Anyone with something similar?

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

JNLP and jar files are being download from server again.

I have a swing application deployed with Java Web Start on a server.
On my client I install the application using JWS JRE 1.6.
The issue is that without any change in the jars or JNLP the jars are being downloaded from the server again and again
This is not consistant - it happens only sometimes.
One important thing to mention: The server is inside a load-balancer cluster (AKAMAI), so the IP address of the actual server may change between different accesses.
in the log, I can see the error:
"Cache entry not found"
and then the jar is being downloaded again.
sometimes only one or two jars were downloaded again, sometimes the whole package with the JNLP file were dowloaded again.
Can you suggest what can be the reason for this behavior?
Thank you,
Ran

That does seem slow, but there are many factors that could be involved. More information would be helpful:
- Are the source and destination filesystems ZFS or UFS? (or some other FS)
- What does iostat show you?
- What does vmstat show you?
- What type of HBAs connect you to the SAN? ('fcinfo hba-port')
- Anything in /var/adm/messages?

My deleted emails on iPhone 4s are not being deleted from server

I'm facing a problem with my iPhone 4s when deleting emails. Unfortunately, they are not being deleted from the server. I tried setting the account in pop and imap with settings to delete from server and trash ticked. Still they keep on appearing in Outlook which is a double work to do. Please advise.

I'm no expert by far, but have had issues with this before.
IMAP should allow your iPhone to remove messages from the server.
But have you made sure both the iPhone and Outlook are connecting via IMAP?
If your iPhone does remove the messages from the server, but your computer is using POP, then the computer may download the email before it is removed form the server by your iPhone.
This was my issue, that my computer had already downloaded the message, and POP does not check later if it is deleted.
If you delete a message from Outlook does it disappear on the iPhone?
Alternativly you may need to check the email server settings.
Who is your email provider?
They may be able to check if IMAP allows you to remove emails.

Email message won't download from server since installing IOS7

Some of my emails both on my iPad and iPhone won't download from server since installing IOS7!

I'm having the same problem with both my iPhone and iPad after installing iOS7. Checked all the settings and spoke to my email provider and everything is set up properly. It's hit or miss which messages don't download from the server too. And occasionally, a message that does download to my iPad, won't download on my iPhone. Everything on my PC downloads properly, it just seems to be an ios7 issue as this wasn't a problem before. My wife uses the same email provider and is still on iOS6.x with no issues. Any help or suggestions would be great.

POP mail not being deleted from server

I am brand new to the MAC world, I just got my first MAC Book Pro Sunday (switching from a PC). I was successful in setting up Mail to connect to my POP mail account (comcast) and everything so far look great, but when I delete an email and remove it from the trash it does not remove the email from the comcast server. I hope this is just something I am missing in the config being a new user and not knowing what I am doing, I do not want to have to log in to my comcast and delete my email twice.
Thank you in advance,
Corey

Under the advanced tab I have the following options
Checked:
Enable this account
Include when automatically checking for new mail
Unchecked:
Remove copy from server after retrieving a message (I did not check this because I still want to keep my mail on the server except when I delete a message then I want it deleted on the server)
Thank you for your reply,
Corey

Email access via POP3 not being deleted from server

I have sync'd my phone to my Verizon.net account and everything seems to work great... except one thing. When I delete the email from my phone a copy of it still stays on the server. Unfortunately it is the Droid X and unlike the blackberry it does not give me the option to select to delete it from the mailbox as well. Is there any way to make a setting on my verizon.net account that will provide for better sync'ing? I would like to have my email both on my PC and on my phone - but the point of accessing my email on the phone is so that I can delete the junk and keep what I need to ... this is making me have to do the work twice.
PS I searched through the threads for a similar issue and only came across one. However, the topic was closed by an admin stating that the issue belongs in the wireless community. I'm not sure I agree with this only because the issue has to do with accessing verizon.net mail via POP3 more than it does with the phone being used to access it (I would think anyway). In any case if anyone has some input on this I would appreciate it.

AFAIK, the device in question would have to "delete from server when deleted". The web page (server) has no way to know when you delete it from the phone. The computer can do this, but without that feature on the droid, I think your stuck.

Emails not being downloaded from BTYahoo to Outloo...

Since Thursday have had a problem with emails not being forwarded to my Outlook in box, this is about the third time this has happened. I did notice that some else has posted with the same problem. Any ideas on how to unblock the system! The only other solution is to get through to BT Help in India! Must admit they were very helpful last time this happened. Any solutions greatly appreciated, bearing in mind that I willl have to go to my BTYahoo page to see any solutions. Many thanks. caravanlady

Hi.
It seems that more and more people are experiencing issues using Outlook, however the problem is more likely down to a couple of reasons.
If could be an Outlook account corruption - so creating a new account in Outlook with the same email details may work. Also logigng into webmail (BTYahoo!) and moving the latest Inbox emails into a temporary folder. Then move a few at a time and retry Outlook, in case there is a corrupt email which can be dealt with separately.
Do you keep all the emails on the server ? If so, there is a chance that this could cause issues with any mail client program such as Outlook - as they have to index the emails so that they don't download ones already seen.

Messages not being deleted from POP server...

...at least not quickly. I have Mail set up to delete messages from the server "When moved from Inbox". I assume deleting a message is included in this definition. Yet I can delete a message and the message won't be removed from the server for hours, if at all. I'll connect to the server multiple times in the interim, giving Mail a chance to update the server, but no dice.
I'll even empty the Trash in Mail and it still won't update on the server. Everything else seems to function in Mail and I have the problem on several different Macs with different POP accounts. Any ideas?
EDIT: I just deleted a bunch of old messages manually by using the Get Account Info interface. They successfully deleted, but newer ones which have been deleted and emptied from Mail (but not removed manually) still remain.

I just responded to another question that was similar to this one, so I have another suggestion or two..
Godaddy supports the automatic forwarding of email to any other email account. For backup purposes, I have my domain/email provider, http://www.fidomains.com , automatically forward any emails to a Gmail account. This allows me to have a backup to all my emails. Works Great! Godaddy will work well for that also.
Godaddy configuration info:
- Incoming mail server: imap.secureserver.net, Turn on SSL support and use port 993 for Godaddy. (Incoming)
- Outgoing server: smtpout.secureserver.net, SSL support and port 465 for Outgoing.

Sent messages not being received from my iPhone

Starting about three weeks ago, I began having sporadic issues with text messages (SMS) and iMessages not going through. I don't appear to have a problem RECEIVING messages, other than they sometimes are delayed by as much as 20 minutes.
I have been on the phone with AT&T support - they point their fingers directly at Apple. I have found no help from Apple on the issue (more finger-pointing).
Texts (SMS) to non-iPhone users are 99% working
Texts/Messages to iPhone users who have Messages set up - I can be having a "conversation" with them and the text bubble will change from blue to green... back to blue, back to green from message-to-message. And about 50% of messages sent via "iMessage" are not going through.
Of interest - it appears that Messages sent via my MacBook Pro are not having the same issue.
One item of possible importance - I had to change my iTunes password right before this problem began (I had posted about an unauthorized movie purchase - which Apple took care of, but forced me to change both my password and to use a different funding source).
It was about that time that messages began to act odd.
I have tried all the settings in the "Messages" settings on my iPhone... turning iMessage off - still some SMS messages don't go through. I read somewhere to turn off "Send as SMS" and that forces the issue... that imroved the successful sends somewhat.
I tried removing email addresses from the "Send & Receive" address list... no change. I then added them back... no change.
It all also appears to be totally random. Sometimes all messages go through without a problem... at other times - the problem gets to the point I'm ready to throw my iPhone in the trash.
But all of this still doesn't clearly put the blame on either party... Is Apple's software tring to swap to SMS for no reason, then not actually sending the message at all? Or is the iPhone sending the message - but AT&T isn't handling them? Neither party wants to admit an issue.

Yes - I am aware of (#3) the SMS splitting issue - just thought it rather odd that they come in consistently out of order, regardless of what carrier they come from.
As far as iMesages and Apple system issues - This unforunately is shaping up to be another symptom of internal issues with Apple. Steve would not have tolerated the inconsistent service.
I went to lunch and completely turned off "use iMessages". I then sent several SMS messages, all of which were delivered as expected (though my wife received a photo that I had sent her two months ago at the same time!).
I then switched iMessages back on and tested it - and so far, all messages have gone through as they should. I am wondering if Apple's server issues might have needed some kind of "reset" of my account by going through this again... who knows.
Either way - so much for the old Apple addage "it just works"....

How to fix message not downloaded from server

Hello everyone,
My name is Joshua Kahley, and I am an IT technician in charge of handeling email related issues in my company. We host our own web and email server and since the I-OS 7 update we have had a problem where many messages cannot be retrieved from our email server. I confirmed with my own phone that this issue did not exist prior to I-OS 7, messages that displayed fine before were no longer be readable on I-OS 7 when i upgraded.
The error message I recieve is "This message has not been downloaded from the server"
I'm not sure if this is a problem that can be solved on the phone itself as I have tried changing numerous settings. Has anything changed with the way I-OS 7 handles IMAP messages that my require us to change settings on our server? No other email provider has this issue as far as I can tell; in addition, all of our customers have the same issue (they all have their email through our servers)
If anyone has any insight into this I would greatly appriciate it.
~Joshua Kahley

No fix, but I found a work-around for a single message that iOS email refuses to download at http://www.bitcraft.com.au/iphone-mail-app-says-this-message-has-not-been-downlo aded-from-server/
that reads:
...here’s a quick fix… Forward the message. Just click Forward and it will ask you “Download rest of message first?”. Say yes and then you will see the old message quoted in the forward. Now if only Apple would make than an option without having to ‘fake’ forward it…
The above worked for me when I encountered "This message has not been downloaded from server” on my iPad 3 running iOS 7.1.1.

FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server"

It took me 4 days to figure it out but there is a solution to the problem "the messsage has not been downloaded from server" and "the message has no content".
I do not have to set up "push" accounts from yahoo or gmail and it works with my corporate email.
Apple can reach me at <Message was edited by: Host> to discuss this issue.

I'm not a computer technician, and if you were to give me a few days looking at the problem, i'm sure I or anyone else could provide a solution. I'm not too bothered about the message appearing 50% of the time as i'm usually within easy reach of a Laptop or PC or can find another method to get access to my email.
So i'm not pi**ed off that you have found a solution. I'm just trying to obtain information for a post that says "FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server" in the Apple HELP FORUMS...
