Problem: One message wrongly marked unread

I have one text message that keeps saying it's unread, but I have read it. If I delete that one, the one before from that person is turned to unread. If I get a new one from her, THAT one stays marked as unread even after I open it to read it.
I have checked my contacts and calendar to make sure no alerts have been ignored. I cleared the cache and data for Messages, but that didn't do it either.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Try clearing the data in the Dialer Storage app. This will delete all your text message and call log. Settings > Applications > manage applications > all tab > scroll down to the Dialer Storage and select it. Press the clear data button.
If you want to keep your messages, you can backup your text messages with an application from the Market. I like SMS Backup and Restore from Ritesh Sahu. The application will save the messages to the sd card and and then you can restore them after clearing the data in the Dialer Storage.

Messages being marked unread during search

When I do a search of all subfolders of email, often summary files are rebuilt during the search. When that happens, some messages (not all, seems random) are marked "unread" here and there throughout the hierarchical structure of my subfolders.
This does not happen in all folders, so the behavior is erratic, but happens every time a search results in summary file rebuild. How do I report this bug?

You can report bugs here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/index.cgi?
I assume the search subfolders emails that are marked as 'unread' were originally marked as 'read' and not emails you had missed, so unread already - bold?

Problems with "Read" mail becoming "Unread" again

Now that I have upgraded to Mountain Lion, I find my mail app acting odd. When I read an email, or when I select the entire contents of a folder and mark all the mail as "read", within a few minutes, random emails become "unread" again.
Anyone else experiencing this and have you come up with any fixes?
Thanks

Mail 2.x has always had these kind of problems with some IMAP servers. A few weeks before releasing the Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update, Apple made some changes to .Mac that caused these issues to happen there as well, and these forums were flooded with complaints from .Mac users about read messages being marked unread, and deleted messages being undeleted.
If this was a non-Mac IMAP account, I would say there is nothing you can do about it other than switching to another mail client. But in you case there has to be something else going on.
Try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox > Rebuild and see whether that makes a difference.

After a power failure, all the messages (or what appears to be all of then, 5K+) were in the inbox marked unread and all the folders were gone. HELP!!!

A long power failure shut down my wife's system without shutting down Windows. When she started it, all her email messages were in her Inbox and marked unread. She previously had 25 or 30 folders; they're all gone. This is an IMAP account synced with Gmail. When I looked at the profile folder with Windows Explorer, only a few of the folder files (including .MSF) were there; the rest of the folders were listed as files, not folders (both the no-extension and .MSF files for each). Oddly enough, all the folders seem to be in the POP3 folder, but it isn't a POP3 account. This is a major major problem. Please help me solve it.

Thank you for such a prompt reply, Matt. I don't think that would work (although I'm not sure) because the folders don't exist on the Gmail server, just on her computer (and our backup hard drive). We use Gmail so we can get our mail when we're traveling, but don't store any messages there. We save them in folders on our home systems and delete them from the Gmail server. I hope against hope that there is some way I can recover her folders; she's really upset by this, email is mostly what she uses the system for to keep in contact with our children and her siblings. I'm going to copy the entire profile folder to a thumb drive because the backup software will overwrite the current files on the backup hard drive at 0300 tomorrow. It sounds like I'm not likely to find a simple solution to this, but I hope those with more (much more) knowledge than I possess can show me that I'm wrong and it can be solved.

Messages not marked read if last unread message

I sort incoming mail into various folders
I use the "Move to next unread" button to go through messages
I configured mail to be marked read immediately upon display
This works perfectly till I reach the last unread message in any folder - clicking the "move to next unread" button will move me to the next folder with an unread message, BUT, the last unread message in the just exited folder is left marked unread
I've tried compacting my folders, deleting my .msf files, and, the 'repair folder' option in the properties pages of the folders, but nothing has worked
Can any one suggest something else to try?

re: Does it do this if you use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move to next in the list; the last one?
''The down arrow key only moves the focus to the following folder, and does not land on or display a message in that folder ''
If the focus is on the Folder in the Folder Pane , then the arrows will move up and down the Folder Pane list.
If the focus in on a selected email in the list of emails you can use the up and down arrows to move up and down the list. As you select an email, it is displayed in the Message Pane below and marked as read. I use this method alot as it is quicker than moving the mouse over any buttons.
I'm trying to work out if this is something related only to the 'Next unread button' or whether something else is conflicting. I presume if you click on the email it is marked as read..
So please tell me if the use of arrows to select emails, still causes the issue.
Test if the Sort Order effects the marking of the last unread email.
Please select the following Sort Order and tell me if the 'Next unread' button works with a different Sort by order.
View > Sort by > Date - Descending - unthreaded
Do you use the 'Quick Filter Bar' to 'Show only unread messages' - icon looks likea pair of sunglasses?
If no. could you please test.
Select the 'Show only unread messages' - then use the 'Move to the Next unread mesage' button.
Does it still fail to mark the last email as read?
What version of Thunderbird are you using?
What OS ?
Confirm Pop or imap mail account?
Please test whether their are any addons causing a conflict:
In Thunderbird
'Help > 'REstart with Addons disabled'
then use the Next unread button method to see if it works ok.
If it works ok then an addon is causing an issue.

GMail One Message Problem

This is a resent problem that started about a month ago after months of no problems with GMail or Mail. The problem is that when Mail check GMail only one message downloads at a time. My work around now is to simply have mail check every minute, but with many unreads this can take some time. Do you think this is a GMail problem or a Mail problem? Any suggestions on a cure?

I don’t know what the problem could be, but I’d also try the opposite to see what happens, i.e. don’t check for mail automatically at all, and do so manually instead. Does it make a difference?
Also, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.

Email message keep getting marked unread automatically?

So I've been noticing recently that message that I've already read or have marked as read, often keep coming back marked unread again. This may sometimes happen 5 or 10 minutes later.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1 should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive
2) Reboot
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

Inbox shows one message unread. I cannot find that message.

I whittled down all unread emails only to find that one message is listed as unread. I cannot find it, despite having gone through all messages back to early 2013.

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand. Can I fix this problem?

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand.
Is it possible to differentiate between all the devices?Can I fix this problem?

I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

(Sun ONE Messaging Server 6.2-8.04)Email sending problem

situation: user ([email protected]) sent email to [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] then encounter errors message as below, anybody can please help me about what's wrong with the email address or error message?
This report relates to a message you sent with the following header fields:

This sounds like there is something wrong in your LMTP configuration. Is delivery working at all? Or does it only fail for these addresses?
I would say to add master_debug to the LMTP channel on the MTA and see what more detail that provides in master debug log files.

A message is marked as unread - so why doesn't the Inbox count show it?

There is a message marked as unread (the little blue ball) in an IMAP account's inbox.
So why doesn't the Inbox show a (1) next to it to indicate there are unread messages?

Thanks for your replies, people.
I actually just created this IMAP account about a week ago.
Yesterday I deleted a separate, POP3 account and recreated it as IMAP. At that time everything got re-indexed (at least the activity window was going on forever about rebuilding and reindexing this and that).
Rebuilding from the Mail menu doesn't help.
I might try removing and re-adding the IMAP account or the entire re-index later if I find this behavior annoys me too much. Will that lose my replied-to indicators?
So anyway, what I am seeing is not normal? If you go to a message and mark it "unread" does your Inbox for that account go up by 1?
Thanks,
doug

Yahoo mail, problem messages are marked as read

hi,
i am able to read the messages from yahoo mail using pop3, but even new messages are marked as read once retrieved through client code.
How to leave new messages as unread?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
-Satish.

As explained in the JavaMail FAQ, the POP3 protocol,
and thus the POP3 driver for JavaMail, does not
support any flags for messages.
I don't know what you mean when you say that new
messages are marked as read when retrieved by
client code. POP3 doesn't know what's new or what's
read. The Yahoo web interface might be assuming
that messages retrieved by a POP3 client have been
read, however. I don't know of any way to control
that.
