Pop3 email account removed. recreated imap. sent items disapeared.

I had a pop3 email account and saved the inbox emails and removed the account. I then recreated the account using imap. My sent items disapeared.
How do I get them back?
Sorry if question not done correctly, 1st time accessing this service.

Oh, I see, the Sent ones from the POP account are gone for good once you delete an account.
You could try some recovery SW, but the longer the Mac has been used the less chance, & these aren't free other than demos to see if they could find any, you'd need to ask for older versions also a likelyhood...

How do I set up a POP3 email account on my iPhone5s, using iOS 7.1.1. All the help I have found tells me to select IMAP or POP but I am not given the choice. I need to be able to set 'Don't delete from mail server' which can't be done in IMAP.

Okay.
Then set it up.

Have 1 POP3 email account I want to work like IMAP email in icloud. Apple suggested created a new Apple ID just for POP3. Has anyone tried this to see if it works and will delete across multiple devises?

Have 1 POP3 email account I want to work like IMAP email in icloud (keeps my iMac, iPhone, ipad mail in sync). Apple suggested trying creating a new Apple ID just for that POP3 email. Has anyone tried this to see if it works and will delete/update across multiple devises? Would mean keeping up with two Apple ID accounts but only other alternative I know of is paying for monthly service for Microsoft 365.

would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them.

How to forward pop3 email account to a new imap account?

For professional reasons, i can only use a pop3 account.
For personal usage, i use two imap accounts. With these two accounts, i don't have any issue.
But the problem is with the pop3 account, because i use at least two/three computers (my pc, my laptop and my wifes laptop).
I've tried to creat a dedicated imap account and MOVEd the pop3 emails inbox to the impa inbox, but it isn't quite want i want.
How can i forward pop3 inbox email account to a imap account, so i can always have up to date pop3 emails on all computers?
Thanks.

Is the imap account with one of the free providers? something we can point you to such as [https://support.google.com/mail/answer/21289?hl=en Google ], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/pop-email Hotmail ]in it's many guises and [https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail/SLN3527.html?impressions=true Yahoo], or a personal server (corporate perhaps) where generalities are needed.

Cannot configure a POP3 email account. Using OSX10.8.2

All of a sudden my wife's AT&T Yahoo mail account stopped working. I looked at settings and found the account was changed to an IMAP instead a POP account. I deleted the account and attempted to re-create it to no avail. Seems when I put her account info in, it automatically creates an IMAP account.
How can force it to accept POP?
Thanks

I need to access advanced setting on my iphone whilst setting up a pop3 email account

I need to access advanced setting on my iphone whilst setting up a pop3 email account. I have entered all of the required details but when it comes to verifying the account it does not progress any further and remains at the verification stage. I need to go in some how and change the security type and the port numbers. I believe this is in advanced setting but I dont know how to get there.
Any help appreciated

Can you clarify whether this is a POP or IMAP account? I suspect it is POP (and that messages have never been deleted off the server for the life of the account) but I'd like to make sure that is the case.

Syncing with POP3 email accounts

I'm just about at my wit's end, having spent the last few days trying to get MobileMe to do what Apple claims it can do. It can't.
That said, I now must figure out how to get my iPhone to directly access and sync with a couple of POP3 email account I have. I have tried going to settings, choosing "other", and adding in the correct info. It says that it "can't make the connection with SSL" and would I like to try without that, but when I say "OK", that doesn't work either.
Why is this so difficult? I replaced a Treo with this iPhone and am now having second thoughts. I mean, it can't access a POP3 account? What 90% of the world uses? I thought the iPhone was ready for "real" usage and not just a kid's phone. Frustrating. I just want to read my email... this should be "PDA 101"
OK, enough raving. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Regarding email, what I was trying to do was have access to my already existing email, not the me.com email. He told me that I’d be able to sync my existing emails with MobileMe... but you can't, at least as far as I can tell.
A MM account can check the incoming mail server for a POP account - this option is available at the MM website. Messages received from a POP account will be downloaded to the Inbox mailbox for your MM account. The downside is when replying to or forwarding a message received from a POP account. The reply or forward will be sent from your MM account.
The idea is to use the MM email account as your email account. I've had a .Mac account for some time which was converted to a MM account. I moved quite a bit between 2000 and 2004. At the time, I was using the email account provided by my ISP. Every time I moved, I had to change my email address, and most ISPs don't provide or support an authenticated SMTP server. I started using a PowerBook as my primary computer in 2000 and if I wasn't connected to the internet via my ISP, I was unable to send messages with the email account provided by my ISP. I decided to start using my .Mac account as my primary email account which solved a number of problems for me. When moving, I didn't have to change my email address and since .Mac has an authenticated SMTP server, I was able to send messages with my .Mac account regardless the ISP used for my internet connection.
MM continues this for me with my PowerBook and with my iPhone. I can send messages with my MM account regardless the ISP used for my internet connection - with the Mail.app on my Mac, with the iPhone's Mail client, or with Outlook or OE on a Windows PC.
Meanwhile, I’ve set up these two email accounts and both can receive email but neither can send, although my me.com address will send & receive.
Because a MM account has an authenticated SMTP server, and your POP accounts probably don't. Who is the email account provider for these POP accounts?
I spent about 1/2 hour this afternoon with Apple tech support who couldn't figure that out and told me I need to do a complete factory reset on my iPhone, which will bring it back to original factory specs, causing me to loose all downloaded programs, information, etc., although I could back it up first with iTunes.
If you are syncing contact information and calendar events over the air with your MM account and your contact information and calendar events are available at the MM "cloud", this data will not be lost when doing a restore with iTunes. Other than that in regards to contact information and calendar events, the iPhone is designed to be synced with the supported application on your computer. If you aren't syncing contact information and calendar events over the air with your MM account, you should be syncing this data with the supported application on your computer and if so, this data remains on your computer and will not be lost when doing a restore with iTunes.
All downloaded applications from the app store should also be available in your iTunes library, which won't be lost when doing a restore.
iTunes creates and maintains a backup of your iPhone for all data on your iPhone not included with the sync process such as; most settings, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, data stored on your iPhone by 3rd party applications, and photos captured by your iPhone - but I wouldn't depend on this one. Photos captured by your iPhone should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
Your iPhone's backup is updated if needed as the very first step during the sync process. Before restoring, the first step should be a sync to update your iPhone's backup if needed.
Since all data available on your iPhone is included with your iPhone's backup or should be available and remain on your computer such as your iTunes content, photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone, etc., nothing will or should be lost during the restore process.
I had a Treo before the iPhone and setting up the email on it took me about 5 minutes. The contacts and calendar sync flawlessly with Outlook, and the setup for that was probably 15 minutes.
Which application did you use to sync your Treo direct with Outlook on your computer for contact information and calendar events?
So my secondary point is that the iPhone is not really ready for corporate life yet unless you are willing to put a LOT of effort into setup, which I was.
A MobileMe account is not designed for business use - it is designed for personal use and the idea is using the MM email address and account as your primary email account/address.
I access my MM account and a business POP account with the iPhone's Mail client. Setup for both took minutes. Both accounts have an authenticated SMTP server and I've never had any problems sending with either account for over a year with my first generation iPhone, or with my iPhone 3G. This is when connected via various wi-fi networks with different ISPs and via EDGE or 3G.
If you are trying to access legacy POP accounts that don't have an authenticated SMTP server, you will have problems. I don't know what was different with your Treo in this regard, but the device has nothing to do with an ISP blocking the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for the internet connection unless the SMTP server is authenticated. Most if not all ISPs block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP unless the SMTP server is authenticated. This has nothing to do with the iPhone.

HT201320 how to set a pop3 email account on ipad retina

How do you set up a pop3 email account on my Ipad retina

As stated in the article you came from, did you tap Other and then enter your information for your provider?

I can't move my incoming mail messages into my mailboxes ever since i upgraded to Yosemite. It keeps defaulting to the old arrangement. My email account runs on IMAP.

I can't move my incoming mail messages on my desktop into my mailboxes ever since i upgraded to Yosemite. It keeps defaulting to the old arrangement. My email account runs on IMAP.

Hello using the settings from my email provider (Virgin Media), I set up my email account on my Mac. The problem arises trying to move the emails from the Inbox to the various mailboxes I set up. All this is occurring within Apple's Mail app, not the Desktop.
Could it be anything to do with the IMAP-enabled synching between my email account on my computer and on Virgin Media's servers where my actions on my computer are not being communicated to the server? I am not an expert and only guessing here! Thanks for pitching in.

Why are sent emails not stored in the Sent Items folder in iOS7

Why are sent emails not stored in the Sent Items folder?

Thanks, Matt.
I'm now starting to notice the emails that don't come in order are all posted from sites that use multiple platforms to send the same message; email, Facebook, Twitter, etc. so maybe that has something to do with it. I'm thinking the hold up is possibly at their end.

Email sent through Exchange account is garbled in sent items folder

Hi,
I sent several test messages from my iPhone, using the Exchange account at work (I have Active Sync enabled through AT&T) to my personal Gmail account. The mail received on my Gmail account appears jut fine. The copy delivered to my Sent Items folder is fine when viewed from the iPhone, but screwed up when viewed in Entourage. I think the problem is a illegal blank line. To wit, this is what showed up in my Sent Items folder when I sent a short test message:
MAIL FROM: <[email protected]>

(sent from mobile device)
In a legally formatted message, the body starts after the first blank line which, in this example, means that all the rest of the normative headers appear as the message. This also means that any MIME attachments show up simply as Base64 encoded text.
Has anyone else seen this problem and discovered how to fix it?
Thanks,
Rob

This is an Entourage specific issue -- curse you Microsoft

After setting up email account the apple imap does not respond.

Able to get on the internet with no problem but when I try to set up an email account no matter whether yahoo or gmail I get this message. "imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field. I have done this numerous times with no success. I deleted all email accounts since they did not work and still have had no success. The problem has to be with this ipad. The model number is MB293LL, Serial # V50445YCZ39 VERSION: 3.2.2(7B500). All pertinent information has been put in properly but the unit still is unable to send or receive any email. I am wondering if I should reset the entire unit back to factory specs etc. The form below this asked for an operating system and I put Vista in due to the fact that this system was given to me by someone that I know had Windows Vista on their home computer. If I can change it I would. I just do not know how at present that is why I am coming to this community. Thanks for any help.

I am trying to set up a basic email account through the settings email,contacts etc button on the ipad. When the list of servers comes up I pick yahoo and fill in the pertinent info as far as the correct email address and password. When I try to save it the ipad is the thing that comes up with this message "imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com" is not responding. I have no idea where or how it comes up with this but that is what appears when I try to save the account information it request. The info that JimHdk sent does not work either. Thanks for any help.

Entourage 2000 - sent emails are not appearing in "sent items" folder

I am using Entourage 200 with POP account. I have the preference for "save copies of sent messages in the Sent Items folder" clicked since I install it a year ago. But a couple of days ago, all my sent emails have vanished. Even new emails I compose and sent out are not appearing in the "sent items" folder. I did hit "option" when openning the program and everything verify ok. Any help would be greatly appreciate.

Since this is the Mail & Address Book - Tiger discussions/forum for Apple's Mail and Address Book applications, you probably won't get much help here with your question.
What is the size of your Entourage database file? Entourage uses a single large database to store all application data and I believe Entourage X has a 4 GB database size limit.
Does hit the option key when launching Entourage perform the database rebuild function? If not, do a search with Entourage help with "rebuild" for instructions.

i have set email attachement limit as 10 MB.
please help me how can i find the message body of the original message from Exchange.
Best regards,
Najim.

Hi Najim,
Before we go further, I'd like to know if all the emails which fail to be delivered are missing in the sent items.
If yes, I recommend you check if there is any transport rule to make it.
If not, I recommend you try the messgae tracking log to monitor the missing emails. The undelivered emails may be stuck in the queues and you can use the commend get-queue to check it.
And here is a similar thread you can refer to:
