Missing emails on iPhone in mailbox

Hello,
I've quite a tricky issue with my new iphone. I set an IMAP account on my Mac and on my iPhone.
On my Mac Mail, I have all my emails correctly. But on my iPhone I'm missing a lot of emails. A couple of them appear but not all of them.
On a Webmail, everything works properly. It is very very weird. I never had that issue on any other iPhone before.
I tried many times to delete and create again the account. I even tried a full restore of the phone. I tried to create the account on iphone or to sync the account from iTunes. Nothing makes it...
Any idea???
Thks a lot.

I have a similar problem. Today 6 weeks worth of email disappeared from the mail client on the iphone. It was there yesterday, then today it's gone. But it's still in my yahoo account (when I log in to the web client) and new emails are still being received ok on the phone.
I tried deleting and recreating the account - the emails appear instantly which suggests that the mails were never deleted.
How do I force the iphone to clear its local copy of my mails and redownload them from the server?

Missing emails between iPhone, Apple Mail & ISP

We recently opened an Apple mail account to sync the notes in our iPhones and now all the emails from before April 15th are missing from our Apple Mail and our ISP server? ANy ideas? Any way to retrieve these emails?

Thank you. And now I know one of the reasons why so many people were excited to enable IMAP support for their Gmail accounts on their iPhones. I'll also stop scratching my head over "sync issues", though I wish the information had been better documented by Apple.

I can't enter the group (chain) of emails from time to time using iPhone OS MailBox software.

I can't enter the group (chain) of emails from time to time using iPhone OS MailBox software. It's ok with stand-alone emails but email chains are existing unlogically. I just press on the chain (with double ">>" sign) and nothing is done. Also I can't enter one of my email account, but I think this issue can be corresponded with the previous one. your help is appreciated!

Carolyn,
I think your TV might be a rear projection model, correct? Those types of TVs inherently have overscan built into them as part of their optical design. The TV should have some picture SIZE settings that affect how much overscan is present, and some settings may even get rid of it altogether with the result there might be a small black border instead.
Don't worry about changing TV settings. Settings like this are tied to a specific input. So if you make these types of changes while the TV is passing the mini's video through to the screen, those changes will only apply to the mini. When you switch to other inputs, like a cable box, etc., the old settings should still be intact and unchanged.

Search a users mailbox for a "missing" email

Is there a command line or script used to locate an email that a user claims was moved or never came in, yet the server states it was delivered?
I am basically looking for a way to search a users mailbox thru command or powershell and have it display the folder/path in Outlook where the message was dragged to accidentally.
I tried the Search-Mailbox -Identity "Fred Flintstone" -SearchQuery 'from:[email protected]' but I don't want to delete or export the message, just find the path where its located in Outlook.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Try this command:
Search-Mailbox -Identity "Fred Flintstone" -SearchQuery 'from:[email protected]' -TargetMailbox “your mailbox” -TargetFolder “folder name” -logLevel Full
This command just copy the message from source mailbox as attachment to target mailbox with full log level. Then you can open that attachment to see more details.
Note: we cannot use the EstimateResultOnly switch with the
TargetMailbox and Loglevel parameter.
Best Regards.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Lost emails when moving between mailboxes

Hello all
I encountered a huge problem today when sorting out some of my mail.
I'm currently running Mavericks and have several accounts set up on the Mail application - these include an Exchange account, and a Gmail (Google IMAP) account.
My Exchange account is expected to expire soon, and so I decided to drag-and-drop mail items from the Exchange mailbox to the Gmail mailbox. This appears to have worked flawlessly for all Sent items from the Exchange account - all sent items have been moved and I can now find the items on the Gmail web interface as well as through the Mail application, and as a result, the Sent items folder is empty on the Exchange account.
I repeated the process for all Inbox items, but it seems to have failed drastically! I cannot seem to locate the inbox items from neither the Gmail web interface nor the Mail application, and worse yet, the Inbox items folder is now empty on the Exchange account. I logged in to the Outlook web interface to see if perhaps the Exchange Inbox items would still be there, and oddly enough there are 13 messages there (the inbox previously contained hundreds of Inbox items) - so there is also some disconcordance between Exchange on the Mail application and on the Outlook web interface.
I'm quite confused as to how the drag-and-drop process appears to have worked well for the Sent items from Exchange to Gmail, but so poorly for the Inbox items. I'm not too happy with the fact that I seem to have lost nearly all of my Inbox items. I have checked the Mail 'Activity' window in the hope that maybe some sort of process was stuck - thus explaining this error, but there's currently no activity.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would really appreciate anyone's help in resolving this matter/finding the mail items that appear to have gone missing.

Dear Eric,
Apologies for the very late reply - I just thought I'd provide an update on my experiences.
From what I recall, neither rebuilding nor reindexing my mailboxes helped to recover the emails that were lost after dragging-and-dropping from the Exchange mailbox to the Gmail mailbox. However, after reading your reply to WilliamCWL, I explored the 'V2' folder from a Time Machine backup (one that was made not too long before I posted this thread) and found the Exchange mailbox. From there, I located and gathered the Exchange Inbox 'emlx' mail files, which I then converted to 'mbox' format, using a tool that I found online. I then imported the 'mbox' format file into Mail, and from Mail I was able to drag-and-drop the Exchange Inbox emails to the Gmail Mailbox!
Many thanks for your assistance in this matter Eric, it's much appreciated.
@ WilliamCWL - I hope that you were able to resolve your problem.
Regards

Missing emails in Mail - Lion deleting them?

I'm using Mail with two IMAP accounts (oneis gmail), and I'm experiencing a little weirdness.
I seem to be missing emails coming in, which I'm not deleting or filing away.
I got in late last night and checked my emails on my iPhone. I read one that needed to be replied to today, then closed Mail on my iPhone and went to bed.
This morning, I jumped on my Lion iMac and opened Mail - and the email I read on my iPhone doesn't appear in my inbox. I checked on my iPhone and iPad and it's not there either.
I didn't delete it or move it or do anything other than read it on my iPhone.
I asked on another forum, and one person said the following:
I am experiencing the same thing. I seem to be able to send email from the Lion's new Mail, but can't receive any.
I have several mail accounts in Mail and the problem seem to be the same with all of them regardless of whether on exchange server or not. The strange thing is that I can see and read some of the "invisible" incoming mail in my iPhone, but if I try to refresh my Mail accounts on mac, it may delete the new emails also from my iPhone! The disappearing emails are nowhere to be found and I have also checked the external exchange service mail boxes and junk mail and spam boxes.
Quite serious bug causing a lot of harm!
So it doesn't seem to be just me.
Anyone else?
Cheers.

Ditto,
I have an Exchange, 5 IMAP, and a POP account. I only have the exchange and an IMAP set up on my phone and iPad, so I only know that those are acting odd for sure. Not really sure what the problem is. The emails are showing up in searches. I have a special "ding" for when my wife emails me and that sounds, but I can only see it if I search for it. The message, along with, most, others wont show up in my inbox...
I'm a part of the developers beta for iCloud and have iOS 5 beta on my iPad but not my iPhone. Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but I figured I should mention.
I really have no idea where to start to fix this bug. Maybe adding and removing the account, but if it's a problem spanning multiple accounts, that doesn't seem likely and with the number of email I have, it'd require quite a while to sync up again.

Case of the missing email

A bit more info on the crash of my mail program this morning.
Re-entered the info when prompted by dialogue box to set the mail program up again (not sure if info was exactly the same as was there before crash)
I now got this message when looking at some past emails in my smart folders.
"The message from [email protected] concerning “Re: Next meeting” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
And all sent messages have vanished.
Currently I can receive emails but not send.
Seems to be several items in mail folder
Mail
archive.mbox
Deleted Messages.mbox
Outbox.mbox
Delivered.mbox
SmartMailboxes.plist.backup

Is old mail gone forever?
Any thoughts on this are appreciated.

I copied my .mbox which was in the Inbox of my accounts with missing
messages, onto the desktop, then put it in a folder and imported
it as "Other" into my Mail program. Then I was able to see the messages
in Mail from the "Import" Folder.
In my thread "Upgrade Lost Messages," this thread was helpful.

Missing Email

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me understand what has happened here.
"User A" is a Director of a company who gets a copy of all external emails in to a specific department. There is a Transport Rule setup for this. Also "User A" has no personal rules setup what so ever and only
has default mailbox folders.
An external user sent an email to "User A" and "CC'd" to "User B" (User B is a member of the specific department of which he receives a copy), though on this occasion "User A" didn't receive the
email at all, though "User B" did.
"User B" has had to forward the message onto "User A"
The Tracking logs within Exchange 2013 show that the email was delivered.
I then used : Get-MessageTrackingLog -ResultSize Unlimited -Start "March 31 2014 | Out-GridView
Using the Filter placed the Senders Email address which showed it being delivered also.
Using the MessageTrackingLog there is 2 sections saying HAREDIRECTFAIL and 1 section DUPLICATEDELIVER.
This company uses emails heavily to do business and now I being asked how many more emails are going missing that they don't know about.
And just to mention I have just recently upgraded them from a SBS2008 environment to Windows 2012 / Exchange 2013. Everything thing else is and seems to be working fine.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, you want to get other missing emails for User A because of duplication. If I misunderstand your meaning, please feel free to let me know.
If yes, message tracking log can help us. And you can try the following command:
Get-MessageTrackingLog -eventID DUPLICATEDELIVER
For more information about message tracking, you can refer to the following article:

If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Acccented characters in received email on iphone display incorrectly

acccented characters in received email on iphone display incorrectly, although tehy are correct on email message displayed on PC

Normally that should not happen unless the emails have erroneous or missing "charset =" statements in their "content-type" header. Unfortunately on the iPhone there is no way for the user to compensate for this kind of issue. Could you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

How do I get deleted email on iPhone to BE deleted on iMac?

I WANT deleted email on iPhone to BE deleted on iMac...successful with GMail, no luck with Yahoo or ATT(Yahoo). Thanks

Depending on the type of email, the answer is different. I'll answer for regular Yahoo Mail, as I have it set up on mine. On your computer, go to mail.yahoo.com and sign in. Then on your iphone, go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --> Click the account.
At the top of the next screen click the account name, and then click "Advanced" at the bottom of the next screen. Under mailbox behaviors, the folder names in blue should match the names of the corresponding folder on Yahoo, EXACTLY. So if on yahoo, the folder is called Trash and on your phone the "Deleted Mailbox" doesn't say "Trash", it's not going to sync properly. It will just create a new folder on yahoo's server with whatever name it's set to be.
ALSO, make sure the mail on your imac is set up as IMAP and not POP.

Missing emails, contacts, calendar and texts - iOS6 upgrade

Has anyone else experienced this or know what to do? Everyone seems to be in complete denial at Apple about this problem.
At the store, they advised me to set up the phone as a completely new phone however:
- am **STILL** missing emails, contact, calendar appointments and texts (I use MS-exchange)
- I've lost all my old texts and notes (and am trying to do a backup to my old iPhone 4s (on old iOS) but its not working
I'm ready to commit myself to an asylum from the havoc wreaked in my life a the moment, not to mention my sadness at losing a note containing all both my daughters milestones and special moments from the last 4 years (which I can't retrieve because the restore to iPhone 4s isn't working).
Can someone please help preserve my sanity and help this problem? I have deleted iCloud as I think perhaps the "Cloud" is confusing matters and getting rid of data (and not working well with Exchange)
Any other tips?

oops...ouch...hard way to learn to always back up your stuff
you "never" backed anything up?? not even an old backup someplace? you really don't have to answer...i'm just feeling your pain. difficult.

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi! I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1430 Cannot send email from iPhone 4S ..it keeps saying smpt password is incorrect but it is correct and I receive email no problem

Cannot send email from iPhone...keeps saying smpt password is incorrect but it is correct.. I recieve email no problem

On my own, I discovered the following, which worked (one responder got the solution part correct for Google): For Yahoo, where I just use a standard login with no extra verification, I had to go into Yahoo and change my password. Once I did this, the new iPhone had no problem registering accepting my Yahoo account. I WAS, however, using the correct password and user name all along, for those who did not think that was the case. The problem is on the iPhone software side. For Google, I use a two step verification, and for that, one must go to Google Mail and obtain a specific, unique password, that is designed to work only on iPhones. Hope this helps anyone else with this dilemma.
