No Junk mail icon with IMAP

hey guys, just setup my mail app for IMAP with gmail after a fresh format / install and i dont have a junk mail icon (nor can i mark email as junk).
never had this problem in 10.5 ..
i can drag msgs to the 'spam' folder under [Gmail], but i cant just click "junk" or anything because there is no option for junk.
thanks for any help =/

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
I have Junk Icon available on all my accounts including my Gmail one. Have you looked in Mail Preferences/Junk Mail to see if it is enabled?

IPad- on Yahoo pages the mail icon with the red number indication shows email. When I tap, it asks me to sign in again. I do. It takes me to yahoo mail but there is nothing. All the folders are emptied. All mail is either read, trash, or deleted.

iPad- on all Yahoo pages the mail icon with the red number indication shows email. When I tap, it asks me to sign in again. I do. It takes me to yahoo mail but there is nothing. All the folders are emptied. All my mail is either read, trash, or deleted. Also, when I tap on the mail app on iPad home page, gmail is no problem but for yahoo I get error: no password for yahoo. Go to Mail Account Settings and enter password. I'm stuck. Suggestions? Thank you.

Ask and you shell receive.....lol
Go to your Gmail account in the browser.
Hit the folder icon that brings up the folder selection.
Scroll down to the bottom and select desktop version.
The broswer will refresh and bring up your gmail account as though you were looking on it on the computer.
The go to the upper right corner and select settings.
Then go to forwarding and pop/imap
Go look at pop download
There you'll find 3 numbered lines
Go to 1. Status
And select enable pop for all mail
Then save the settings
Once you have done that you can go back to BlackBerry device settings and sync your mail or wait for it to sync it's self.
Let me know how it works out.
I just did it and it sync within minutes.

My email account in Mail.app is IMAP, but when I delete emails, they don't delete from other devices connected to the mail server with IMAP. Deleted mail on other devices delete as normal from the server and thus from other devices as normal.

MacBook Pro, late 2011 version. Up to date Mountain Lion.
My email account in the Mail.app is set up as IMAP, but when I delete emails in the Mac Mail App, they are not deleted from the mail clients of the other devices that are connected to the mail server with IMAP. IMAP works perfectly between Windows Outlook 2010, iPad Mail App and Android default mail client. Deleted messages behave correctly, as in delete from one device and the mail is deleted from all devices.
Having just tested in reverse order on the Mac; emails deleted from the email client on Windows, iPad and Android are not deleted in the Mac Mail App. It appears that the account is behaving like POP rather than IMAP.
Any advice on how to have IMAP work correctly on the MacBook Pro Mail.app?
Thank you.

Hi Csound1, thanks. The email host is 1and1.co.uk, however, i am going to fess up and make myself look like a plonker now -
the email account in question was set up in Outlook as POP - stupid, stupid, stupid me, wasted an afternoon on this! I have now changed the Outlook account to IMAP and Mail.app works perfectly - and looks much nicer than Outlook did. Im in the middle of converting from Windows to a Mac, and still finding my way around the Mac
The lesson learned, never assume - always double check! All my other email addresses with 1and1 are all imap, except this one, and it happened to be the first one I set up in the Mail.app. (bows head in disgrace!)
Thank you anyway for attempting to help me!
Cheers

How Can I Turn OFF Junk Mail Filter for IMAP Accounts Only?

I am trying to figure out how to turn off the Junk Mail filtering for IMAP accounts such as .Mac/.ME and GMAIL. All filtering is working fine on the server side, and reviewing the mail that is tagged is easy enough by just going to the account and displaying the folders created on the server.
I've checked the Junk mail pref and although the Advance settings let you isolate specific accounts to check, it does not give you the option bypass checking an account.
i.e.
if <Any> of the following conditions are met:
<Account> <is not> <Gmail (IMAP)>
As is, the mail rules are working perfectly on the server side, but in Apple Mail, many mails are being sent the Apple Mail's Junk folder.
When going through the Gmail's instructions on setting up a Gmail account for Apple Mail, it specifically says to turn off Junk mail filtering for the account, but I can't find any options to do that.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

I haven't tried this, but it should work:
Make a new rule,
If <Any> <Account> is <Gmail> or <Account> is <.me> then "Stop evaluating rules".
Move this rule to the last in the list of rules.
In the Junk Mail preferences, be sure that "Filter junk mail before applying my rules" is unchecked.

I can only see the welcome to mail screen (iphone 5). I have set up mail successfully because it shows mail icon with messages. But I cant get into the mail box!

I can only see the welcome to mail screen (iphone 5). I have successfully set up the mail because it shows mail icon with messages (104 messages). But I cant get into the actual mail box to read them. Pls help!

The received emails should show in two locations:
1. In the All Inboxes tab of Mail.
2. The Inbox for each mail account,
If your emails are not showing in these locations try quitting the mail app and then reset your iPhone.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

How Do I Get My Junk Mail Icon Back Under MAILBOXES ?

How Do I Get My Junk Mail Icon Back Under MAILBOXES ?
It seems to have disappeared and I have know idea what I did.

In each account, is Junk filtering enabled -- Mail Preferences/Junk Mail? Also, have you selected (account by account) to move any Junk message to the Junk Mailbox?

Junk mail problem, using IMAP

I have many folders on my IMAP account and server-side rules to sort my e-mail. Mail correctly synchronizes all these folders (almost, it sometimes shows a wrong number of new messages until I open the folder. But that's a minor issue).
The problem is junk-mail. In one folder i receive a lot of spam. When the junk filter is in training mode, it correctly identifies the spam messages and highlights them with the brown color. When I configure the junk filter to "automatic" mode it seems to correctly detect junk mail, and moves messages to the Junk folder (when I answer "Yes" to run the filter in the current mailbox instantly). However, when I receive spam and the filter is already in automatic mode, messages seem to be detected as spam, but they're not moved to the Junk folder. When I view the messages, I get the button to mark them as "Not junk". The messages aren't marked with the brown color either.
This is an issue both when the Junk folder is on the server, or locally.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues? If I don't find a solution to this I'll have to switch to Thunderbird...

Yes, I am having the same problem. I've tried changing a slew of mail preferences. So far nothing is quite satisfactory. In fact, for about 36 hours I didn't recieve any email at all, including test messages sent to myself. I'm not sure where it all went. It's confusing. And Mail's documenation *****.
I'd love to hear if you figure this out.

Setting up apple mail account with imap fails

Hi folks.
I have a mail address from a german provider www.all-inkl.com.
My hardware is a MacBook Air 1,7 GHz Intel Core i5 with MacOSX 10.7.5
I do not succeed setting up Apple Mail (Version 5.3) for this mail address using IMAP. Strangely it works on Thunderbird 17 for Mac.
Find the settings below (those which Thunderbird accepts):
INCOMING: imap.XXXX.de – Port 143
OUTGOING: smtp.XXXX.de – Port 587
STARTTLS
Email: [email protected]
Username: j.raff
Apple Mail says (translated from German):
"Login at the IMAP Server 'imap.XXXX.de' failed. Make sure Username and Password are correct ..."
Does anyone have a clue?

Thank you for staying with me.
And, yes, I have the same error as described above.
I double checked all details.
Still, there is some ambiguity with username and servernames. Username may either be the email OR email name before @ OR client number ... Tried all.
Btw, in the Android E-Mail App it doesn't work either. I guess I have to call the provider.

Remove attachments from mail app with imap account

Hi Folks,
I am quite frustrated. I am using Apple's mail app with Gmail (IMAP) and I want to remove all of my attachments from Gmail. I am using the 'remove attachment' feature of mail app to do this. However, it removes the attachment, then uploads a copy of the original email without the attachment. Therefore, I end up with two emails: The original and a copy without an attachment.
I don't get it. I just want to remove the attachments from my emails. I don't want to delete the original email.
Any thoughts?

I am not sure when I will get the chance to test this -- maybe this afternoon. But I had not understood that what you called original continued to have the attachments. If so, this strongly suggests to me that it indeed may be the way Gmail maintains the All Mail folder that is causing this. See:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6581
If there is a setting to help this, it will have to be one that is selected in the Settings webpage of Gmail, I suspect.

I no longer have the e-mail icons with my e-mail so that I may reply, forward, etc. How do I get them back?

I no longer have my e-mail symbols for replying, forwarding, etc. How do I get them back?

Try terminating and restarting Mail:
1. Press the Home button
2. Double click the Home button to bring up the "Recent Apps" tray.
3. Touch and hold on the Mail icon in the "Recent Apps" tray until a "-" appears.
4. Touch the "-" to terminate Mail.
5. Mail Safari and see if this corrects the problem.
If this doesn't try restarting or resetting your iPhone:
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

No e-mail icon with Curve 8520 v5 upgrade

After completing Version 5 upgrade, I don't have an icon on my home screen to send or receive e-mail.
I went into setup and my email account was already there. I ended up deleting it and adding it again. When I did this, I got a messge that a "new icon for this mailbox has been added to the home screen." Went to look and it's still not there. Took out the battery and rebooted. Still not there.
Finally discovered that I could get to my email but accessing SMS/MMS (texting) icon. I sent an e-mail to someone and all my received e-mail that I haven't been able to access was there. This is very cumbersome way of getting to my email and obviously not the way it's suppose to work.
How do I get my email icon added to my home screen?

In OS 5, your talking about the icon that I refer to as the "General" message folder. You can chose which notifications arrive in that folder SMS, MMS, Email, Call notifications. Find that icon and click on it, then click menu button and scroll to Options and then select what you do and do not want to appear in that folder/icon.

From the "front" screen, highlight an icon on the bottom and then hit the menu button. Now you are on the main menu sreen full of icons. Have a look for your email icon. Not there? Hit menu and "Show All." Still not there? Go into each icon, start with downloads, and do the show all again.
Once you find the email icon you can move it to the top row of the main icon screen and it will then be on the front screen.

Junk Mail icon turns to "NOT junk mail" when dragged to toolbar

Okay, maybe I'm missing something here. I get a piece of mail that Mail thinks is junk. I'm supposed to be able to select the message, and click on the "mark as junk" icon, or go to the menu and do Mark Message as Junk. Well, neither of those options exist. Within the menu, I can only Mark Message as Not Junk. When I try to drag the Junk icon from the toolbar options to the toolbar, it turns into a Not Junk icon on the way. Wierd.

Greetings,
This sounds like Mail already thinks that the message is Junk. The switches are automatic, and will swap between Junk/Not Junk depending on which the message is.

Mail hangs with IMAP but not POP

Hey guys,
I'm running a POP Gmail account in Mail 3.1 and have about 3,000 messages in my Inbox. I recently created a new IMAP inbox for my gmail in Mail, works on my iPhone, but after Mail downloaded all the messages from the server, it just freezes and hangs after about a minute of use. Some messages are duplicated in the inbox. This only happens when having the IMAP account online, when switched off and only the POP inbox is running, mail works just fine.
Please advise.
Thank you,
Chris

Is there any reason why you keep 3,000 messages in the Inbox??
If you're now using imap with this many, the system will be trying to sync to keep both online and desktop aligned, so to speak. I'd encourage you to delete unwanted emails, then create specific folders and categorize your emails into some sort of filing system.
As early as the DOS days and the original Macs, directories/folders were there for a purpose. As I tell my students: imagine throwing all those files into your office filing cabinet with no alphabetized system. Not only would it be chaos, but imagine how much longer it would take you to find something.
Not trying to be sarcastic, but it's about the only analogy to describe the concept. Hope this helps a bit.

Mail issues with IMAP server

One of my IMAP accounts is misbehaving with the following symptoms:
1) Mail very slow to open, particularly with attachments
2) Mail which has been read comes back us unread
3) Activity window is showing two permanent activities:
[unimail IMAP] Communicating with server
[INBOX] Fetching
[unimail IMAP] Updating cache directory
Caching attachments for 1 of 467: Presentation
The first activity shows the stripy blue bar permanently, the second shows very slow progress and never seems to complete. I have tried restarting, rebuilding Mailboxes, all without success.
Any ideas
Tony

We are having similar issues. We have a single imap account (with about 15-20k emails active) that is being shared between 4 computers. The synching and updating between them is extremely slow and clunky.
Do we need to archive old messages? Is there a way to do this that all computers have access to the archive? What is the best method to deal with this?
Is the number of messages even the problem?
Thank you

Mail crashes with IMAP account. Entourage/Thuderbird working fine.

Hello Mac users!
Unfortunately, I in the Mail discussion board, so let me repost my issue.
A few days ago, Mail started crashing when synchronizing with my IMAP server. I've tried all the standard steps like deleting pref, cache, Library/Mail folder; created new user account, repair permissions, cron scripts...
It crashes on our iMac and Powerbook, so it's obviously related to that particular email account. Other accounts (POP/IMAP) from the same email provider are not affected.
For some reason though, Entourage/Thunderbird/webmailer have absolutely no problem accessing the same account!
We heavily rely on Spotlight in our office, so there's no way to get around using Mail.app.
I can download email using the POP protocol, yet there're many reasons why we're paying for an IMAP server.
Removing all recent messages using Entourage doesn't have any impact on Mail.app.
For what it's worth...A crash report can be found here
Thanks for your help.

And there goes my second IMAP account! Same server, different account, same symptoms!
This is getting serious!!!
Does anybody have a clue?
