New email notifications. I WANT TO STOP THEM.

Hello Is there anyway I can stop these pointless email notifications I keep receiving every time i sign in to my icloud, don't care about the celebrity hacking, I just don't want a email over and over.

If they are coming to your iCloud address you could go to the iCloud website, go to the Mail page, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left, choose 'Rules' and set up a Rule to move all messages from [email protected] to another folder you previously created, or the Trash. If they are coming to a non-Apple address you can do the same thing in the Mail app on your Mac (presumably also on mobile devices though I don't know about that).

If a person is using your email address, you should change your email password and make sure there aren't any forwards to some strange email address.
An example if you were using gmail, under account settings, a forward can be set up to send messages to another email address.
If your email address is say, you own domain, such as somename@somename dot com, make sure the forwards are forwards you set up.
If your email account was hacked and the bad guy has access, you need to cut him off, first by changing the password and second cut off any message forwarding to the bad guy if he set it up. Just changing the password would keep a bad guy out, but if the bad guy set up a forward, he will still get your email.
A confirmation from Apple would have come to your email address in order to confirm that Apple ID. If you are getting the other person's purchase notifications, you would have gotten a confirmation of that account from Apple.

How can I disable the new email notification pop-up window?

When I am trying to perform timed Lumosity games and the new email notification window pops up over the window I'm working in, it's very disconcerting and bothersome. I'd like to disable this auto pop up, but can't find out how to do so.

Tools (Alt-T) - Options - General - When new messages arrive
Uncheck the notification(s).

Can't stop the email notifications even though I turned them off

I can't seem to stop the email notifications -- after receiving 240 emails this morning -- even though I have clicked on the notifications to STOP. How do I get them to stop? Apparently I'm getting all email notifications for ANYTHING iMac (Intel).

Offlineimap "New Email" notification scripts

I recently started using offlineimap/mutt to keep track of three email accounts. I wanted notifications when new email arrived so I tried some notification programs that worked with Maildir but didn't find any that I liked. So I came up with this script:
#!/bin/sh
MAILDIR1=$HOME/Email/maildir1/INBOX/new
MAILDIR2=$HOME/Email/maildir2/INBOX/new
MAILDIR3=$HOME/Email/maildir3/Inbox/new
echo "Watching $MAILDIR1"
while MAILNAME1=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR1)
do
echo $MAILNAME1
mailpop $MAILDIR1/$MAILNAME1
done&
echo "Watching $MAILDIR2"
while MAILNAME2=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR2)
do
echo $MAILNAME2
mailpop $MAILDIR2/$MAILNAME2
done&
echo "Watching $MAILDIR3"
while MAILNAME3=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR3)
do
echo $MAILNAME3
mailpop $MAILDIR3/$MAILNAME3
done
I modified a script for procmail notifications I found here http://miek.nl/posts/2008/Jun/09/a-popu … rocmailrc/ for nicely formatted notifications and added two lines to speak the notification as well.
mailpop
#!/bin/bash
# popup a small notification with 'notify-send'
from=`formail -X From: < $1`
sub=`formail -X Subject: < $1`
# tweaks < > are special
from=${from//</$}
from=${from//>/$}
from=${from//&/\.}
sub=${sub//</$}
sub=${sub//>/$}
sub=${sub//&/\.}
sub=${sub:0:200}
from=${from:0:75}
TM=2000
/usr/bin/notify-send -u normal -t $TM "$from" "$sub"
while pgrep speech2 > /dev/null; do sleep 1; done
speech2 New Email ${from%(*}, With $sub, has arrived
#echo "New Email $from, With $sub has arrived" | festival --tts
At first I used festival for speech, but Google's voice sounded so much better. This script will speak up to 100 characters, just requires mplayer:
speech2
#!/bin/bash
say() { local IFS=+;/usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa -really-quiet -noconsolecontrols "http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=$*"; }
say $*
For messages with longer subjects: http://danfountain.com/2013/03/raspberr … to-speech/
Anyone else have a script/program they like for maildir notifications? Also I would be interested in making these work as a systemd user service.

For any other i3 users, jasonwryan script works great with i3status and i3bar useing the example from i3status manual:
i3status | while :
do
read line
echo "Email: $(eml) | $line" || exit 1
done
Edit: This is better, works with colors:
i3status | (read line && echo $line && read line && echo $line && while :
do
read line
dat=$(eml)
dat="[{ \"full_text\": \"Email: ${dat}\" },"
echo "${line/[/$dat}" || exit 1
done)

Unwanted 'New Email' notification on home screen

Havin read some of the posts on this board concerning email notification messages, i went to
menu-tools-settings-general-personalisation-homescreen-mode settings-homescreen applications-enabledapplications, and unticked both email1 and email2 notifications, and yet I still get the message every time I recieve an email on the mail for exchange.
any suggestions?
also it does seem pretty absurd the setttings are buried away in these menus to such an extent you have to look it up online to sort the navigation...

I agree with you. The Nokia Messaging gives you the push mail, but the notification on the phone is poor. You have to open the Nokia Mail app on the 5800 to see the message. Without V30 if new mail arrives and you miss the beep there is no indication from the home screen of new mail.
Even with V30 unfortunately you can only see the most recent email that has arrived on the home screen- and for some reason it still shows it as unopened once you've read it i.e. the closed envelope rather then opened.
FYI- you can turn the email notification on the home screen off.
I'm still amazed that there isn't a unified app that brings SMS, Mail, Chat etc all into the same window. So you only have to check in one place for incoming communication. Maybe there's a third party solution out there??
Maybe one of the other Nokia phones has this, E72?

Possible to set new email notifications?

*Is it possible to set a repeating notification for received email?*
One short beep is not enough. If I am away from my desk I need to press the home button, swipe to unlock and see if I have new email each time. If I keep the phone on me I do not always feel the single notification beep.
Don't most phones beep repeatedly every minute or so to notify you of new email.
Even the text message app at least shows you have a new message by just pressing the home button.
I vote for a small pin hole LED on the next phone that alerts the user of a new email.

Thanks for your post -- _It is not now possible to set repeating mail notifications_.
But please be sure to share your suggestions with Apple:

They do read suggestions. Hope you are enjoying your iPhone!

I have a new email notification that won't go away, (Exchange), though I do not have a new email. How do i resolve this?

I have a notification for my Exchange account saying I have a new email. Though, I don't and there are no unread emails in that account. How do I get rid of this? Any ideas?

Try tapping Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > your Exchange account > turn Mail off and see if the badge goes away. Then turn Mail back on for the Exchange account.
If that doesn't do it, you can try restarting or restoring the iPhone.

Reply to emails from new email notification area (top left) in status bar?

Hi, all
setting up the new playbook. everything is working: email, internet, tethering, blackberry bridge...
I have come across one problem though:
i found that I cannot reply to an email when open from notification area. i.e when new email arrives, ntification flashes in the corner. when I press to open the new email I see all the buttons, but nothing happens. I would very muxh like to reply to email from that window.
Is there something wrong with the playbook, or is it designed that way?

Works just fine for me. The list opens when Itap the notification area. When I tap on the title or letter icon for the new email, it opens in edit-reply mode.
Edit: Not quite the truth... I have to click on the reply icon at the bottom of the just-opened message - the envelope icon with the left green arrow.
In the dark and need a sky map?

Email notifications on posts have stopped

Why have my emails stopped for posts on OTN?
I have not changed anything on my account. I did a "pretend" change recently thinking that it might undo the problem to no avail?
Is this feature now unavailable? I used to get email notifications when a reply was made to my watched items.
TOA,
Ed.

Hello !!??!!
Doesn't anyone (like a webmaster) read these posts?
TIA,

HT202667 I am ditching my non-Apple email address and want to stop using it. My husband's ID is his icloud email, why can't mine be?

I don't want to run two email addresses and want to use my icloud email address for all correspondence. Itunes keeps sending me emails to my old address and it won't let me change my Apple ID to my icloud address. My husband's is using his without any issues. Is there a way round this?

I'm afraid not. While people who started with iTools or MobileMe had their @mac.com/@me.com (and now @icloud.com) address as the ID from the start, and people who open a new Apple ID and iCloud account at the same time from the iCloud preference pane can choose to make the @icloud.com address the ID, if it's the case that your ID is a non-Apple email address you can change it to another non-Apple email address but you cannot change it to your @icloud.com address.
You can of course set up forwarding from the ID address to the @icloud.com address so that you only have to look in one place. However you should be aware that if the setup means that you can only be contacted by Apple at the @icloud.com address, then if you have a problem such as a forgotten password or a corrupted account, Apple can only contact you at an address you cannot access so it's essential to have a 'rescue address'.

Can't turn off new email notifications. (iphone5)

Randomly, I started getting pinged with every incoming email even though I have sounds for new email set to off. Silent vs. non-silent doesn't make a difference. (iphone5)

Check Settings > Notifications > Mail > [each and every email account you have] > New Mail Sound

New Email notification only looks unread for about 3 minutes even if I have not read the message

I have just started using Microsft Outlook to use my yahoo account. Both of those services show a new message as unread indefinitely but for some reason, my 8310 only shows the new email as new for about 3 minutes.
In the BB Mail-Options General options - I have the Display Message count as Unread, and the Display New Message INdicator as Yes, and under the Email Reconciliation it reads On. It used to work fine but all of the sudden something has changed.
Does anyone have any tips on this issue? I would hate to miss an important new message when I am traveling.

Take it to apple store and don't replace it with the new one my son had the same problem he was in there about 10 minutes and walked out with a new phone

Why does my message app on my mac book pro still say I have 3 new message notifications when I already opened them a week ago?

The message app on my mac book pro says I have 3 new message notifications and I already opened those messages a week ago. How do I get rid of the notification pop up on the app?

Please sign out of all the messaging services you use and sign back in. If there's no change, log out or restart the computer.
