Reconcile personal Yahoo email

I am new to BB and am confused. 
I am receiving my personal yahoo email messages on my BB curve 8530. This is what I want.
I delete messages on my personal yahoo account on my laptop and they are not deleted on my BB.  I would like to have the messages deleted on my BB when I delete the messages from my Yahoo mail inbox.
The Email Reconciliation settings on my BB are:
Message Service: [email protected]
Delete On: Prompt
Wireless Reconcile; On
On Conflicts: Mailbox Wins
Solved!

Hello,
Given your description, this should work...see this KB for reference:
KB05133Email reconciliation features for the BlackBerry Internet Service
However, are you sure you are deleting from the Yahoo server? I ask because you said this:

I delete messages on my personal yahoo account on my laptop
I cannot tell for sure if you are deleting truly on Yahoo (e.g., via their WebMail interface) or via some PC-based email client (e.g., Outlook). If a PC client, then it is likely that the PC is not configured to remove the items from the server when you delete them in Outlook (for instance). As such, the BB can never know of the deletion since all reconciliation is between the BB and the Yahoo servers...there is no reconciliation between the BB and your PC email client.
But, if you are deleting from the Yahoo WebMail interface, then I recommend removing and re-integrating the Yahoo account on your BB and again ensuring you have properly configured for 2-way reconciliation.
Good luck!

  • Personal yahoo-email together with business email

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up a second email address for personal use (Yahoo) on my Blackberry Curve. The first email address (that is already set up and working just fine) is my business email (through our business server). I'm using AT&T with a data plan.
    The BB does not show any emails for the yahoo address, nor can I send any. The setup was successfull and the email address validated. Any ideas?
    Thank you!
    Kalydon 

    Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
    Remove the battery on the BB, while powered ON, hold a few seconds, replace and reboot... and report back?

  • Yahoo email problem?

    Hi - I have a Curve 8900 running v4.6.1.231
    I am on an Enterprise Data plan, with emails synched up to both my office outlook email, and my personal yahoo email.  At around 11:30 yesterday, my yahoo email stopped sending/receiving/synching with my BB, but my office outlook email is working fine.
    I tried to go into Email setup with the setup wizard, to see if maybe I had to delete and re-add my yahoo email account, but after about 60 seconds with a load message "connecting to email settings" I got a message that said "Your devide had a problem connecting to the server" with retry and cancel button - I retried with no avail.
    Not the most tech savvy person here, but was wondering if this is a problem on my end?  Or something on the BB side?  Any ideas on how to correct would be most appreciated!
    Sandy

    Hmmm...that's a choice you will have to make. Here's why...when you use the PC/Web interface to BIS, you must create credentials for your BIS account so that, when you log in via PC/Web, it can authenticate you to the proper BIS account. Credentials aren't needed via the device interface to BIS since you are connecting from the device. But, once you use the PC/Web interface and create credentials, you will also have to thereafter also use them on the BB itself. But, it should offer you a "remember me" checkbox so that you only have to enter those credentials on the BB the first time you use it after creating the credentials.
    Honestly, if you don't think you'll ever again want to connect to your BIS account via PC/Web, then you are probably just as well now calling your carrier. They can just as well send the Service Books (once you get through their call queue, of course!).
    Good luck!

  • Is anyone else having email problems such as apps exiting in the middle of an email? It may be a wireless issue. I use First Class for work and yahoo email for personal. I will be in the middle of typing a long email and the app just quits, all data lost.

    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • In my yahoo email, attachments disappear, and i can only open the inbox, not delete or move anything- help!

    for the past week, my yahoo email will not work in mozilla, my regular browser of choice. the entire list of folders on the left column will not open, the menu options on the top will not open, the setting wheel included. the yahoo account now works fine on my cell, and on any other computer, and now also fine in in IE, after i clicked "compatibility view."
    is there a comparable quick fix in mozilla??

  • How do I get rid of annoying text at end of yahoo email?

    Using Safari and Yahoo email.  No signature has been set yet every email ends with a tailing set of characters, one character per line as follows:
    Preferences § 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = Backspace Tab q w e r t y u i o p [ ] Return capslock a s d f g h j k l ; ' \ shift ` z x c v b n m , . / shift English alt alt Preferences
    What is causing this and how can I get rid of it?
    I am actually asking for my daughter.  This has been going on for a long time and I am stumped.  I have gone into both Yahoo email and Safari preferences and can find no reason for this happening. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • I downgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 7, do I have to reinstall firefox? Text in Yahoo email and Craigslist getting smaller and smaller automatically.

    I recently purchased a new laptop which came with Windows 8 (appears you can't find a new one with Windows 7 any more). Reinstalled the latest version of Firefox from the official Mozilla download site. Gave the laptop to my wife and she HATED Windows 8. So I purchased a license of Windows 7 and had Fry's downgrade my Windows 8 laptop to Windows 7. All going well for my wife except her Yahoo email and Craigslist adds get continually smaller and smaller. Did the CTL + trick and reset, but was wonder if I need to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. My thinking is that the Firefox configuration may think it's still on a Windows 8 machine. Would that eliminate the continual need to CTL+ every time the text gets smaller?

    [[Unistall Firefox from your computer]] During the unistall process if you want to remove your Firefox user data and settings, put a check mark in the box that says Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations. If you select this option, Firefox will not preserve your bookmarks, saved passwords, and other data if it is installed again.

  • Can I use Yahoo email address in Mail?

    Hi,
    Friend bought a MacBook. He's had Yahoo email address for years. Can he use it in Mail? If not - is there a free solution? He has an Airport, so no need to get high speed.
    Thanks.

    You can an email account from either your ISP (internet service provider) or from an email account provider only such as Apple (.Mac), Yahoo, etc.
    I was under the impression that one doesn't need to actually get
    high speed with an Airport - that you just need to be somewhere
    with good reception.
    Yes and no.
    I have Cable modem service at Home and I purchased an Airport Express wireless router which is connected to my cable modem. This allows me to create a wireless network at home which is password protected and encrypted. Any neighbors within range of my wireless network can see my network but are unable to connect to it (without my permission or knowledge) since I have it password protected and encrypted.
    Although your friend's MacBook may be within range of someone else's wireless network, most are password protected (or should be) and even if not protected, this doesn't give your friend or anyone else the right to connect to this dumb person's unprotected wireless network without their permission and knowledge.
    Even if your friend does so with or without permission, he will probably have problems sending messages with an email account and SMTP server not provided by the person's internet service provider with the wireless network.
    There are a number of paid and free wireless access locations at coffee shops and the like but each has different requirements for using an email account and SMTP server that is outside of their network.
    Having an Airport or wireless card does not give you free internet access unless you are within range of a free public wireless network which must be within 150 feet or so.

  • SPF and redirecting Personal Domain Emails to btin...

    Concern has been raised due to  Critical Path not delivering emails that SPF checks might stop emails, using  personal domain email addresses that were redirected (ie forwarded) to btinternet addresses, being delivered. Now that Critical Path appear to have temporarily fixed the issue the following email header obtained after the fix shows that the concerns are unfounded.  
    It is preferable  that when the "temporary" is removed removed from the current fix,  BT ensure that Critical Path are not allowed to prevent delivery of any emails but pass them on to the recipient in a similar way as illustrated below.
    The email header below, taken after the temporary fix by Critical Path, shows that when the redirection takes place no SPF check is done. It also shows that SPF check failure takes place when emails are forwarded from Critical Path to Yahoo.
    Note that most of the header has to be read from bottom to top eg Section A followed by Section B etc.
    The email was to payments@redacted ( ie @xxx.co.uk) that was redirected to [email protected] (ie [email protected])
    The redirection takes place at sections B and C.
    This email has several interesting features two of which are:
    1. It has a spoofed senders address and
    2. It contains a virus.

    Email rejected due to SPF check failed
    The "spf fail" you are seeing in your headers is actually added by Yahoo, since your mailbox has not yet been migrated to CP, and your btinternet mail is being forwarded to your BT Yahoo mailbox. Yahoo do not reject mail on SPF hard fail.   I indicated this in my post.
    Prior to the relaxation of SPF reject by CP, CP was not forwarding your mail to Yahoo because CP was taking the decision to reject the mail on SPF hard fail.
    I have headers before the temporary fix that have no indication of CP checking SPF.
    Mail route (post relaxation of SPF reject):
    Amazon -> 123-reg
    Works fine
    123-reg -> CP
    Email now not rejected due to SPF check failed
    But no indication that it did any checking.
    CP -> Yahoo (if mailbox not yet migrated)
    Yahoo adds SPF fail header but mail still accepted
    My comments on your diagnosis is in red above.
    It looks as if CP might handle "SPF hard fail policy" differently (from the obvious) than other policies eg not report them.
    Has anyone got any headers for BT Mail implementations ?
    Failure to deliver emails to recipients without any notification is unacceptable for any public email service.

  • Yahoo email sync does not work

    Hi All,
    before posting this I searched the forums and tried all the solutions and they did not work. All solution were basically configurations adjustment.
    I am using Bold 9700 on BIS. Yahoo email does not synchronize the messages when read or deleted from the desktop online account. But it works the other way around. (when I delelte or read a message from the web email it stays unread on the device and I have to go and delete it or mark it as read manually). it is very annoying that I have to do everything twice, specially that I am reveiving like 50+ emails every day in yahoo account only.
    the email reconcilation configurations are
    Delete on: Mailbox & Handheld
    Wireless reconcile: On
    On conflict: Mailbox wins
    I called RIM and they said it should work 2-way, yahoo also it should work. I called Rogers, the tech support told me her device does like that. and all what she did was telling me change the configuration, save, change them back, and save again. and surely nothing of that worked.
    I tried my yahoo mail, and other accounts, on iphone and HTC and they worked well both ways.
    I really am not sure why people claim that blackberry are the best email handler! a lot of people suffer from sync problems, and there is no IMAP folders support on BIS!!
    any help would be appreciated

    Same issue here.
    I have BB 9700 and Yahoo! BIS account.  Worked like a charm until about a week ago.
    It was even synchronizing my calendar and mail between BB and Outlook 2010 - never really understood how it managed to do that, but I was very pleased.
    As of lately our telecom administrator spent hours on the phone with AT&T, Yahoo and RIM trying to resolve this problem.  I was told by RIM tech. support that I've got too many messages in the inbox (measly 5000 e-mails) and that BB stops synchronizing after about 800 messages in the inbox, because it is timing out with so many messages to go through.  Sounded like a total BS to me, but I still went ahead and cleaned up my Yahoo inbox and no luck, as I suspected.  I was also told by tech. support that it is due to my using Outlook 2010 Beta2, which is not supported, hence the issue - another ferry tale, IMHO.
    Hopefully, RIM will be able to get us back on track - manually deleting 60 emails every day is extremely annoying.

  • Yahoo Email HACKED via having logged in from my Blackberry

    My Yahoo Email account becomes hacked and password compromised anytime that I use my Blackberry to log into my Yahoo Email by going to the Blackberry web browser, then my.yahoo.com, and then logging in.
    After the hacking I will use a computer to go to Yahoo Email and change the password.  The hacking will then stop.  Then if I use my Blackberry to login to Yahoo Email via the Blackberry web browser then the account becomes hacked again within minutes.   I have isolated the hacking to the Blackberry as I only use my personal computer and the Blackberry to login.  I will go weeks without a hacking incident but once I use my Blackberry to login to Yahoo Email the account shows logins from Canada within 5-30 minutes and then within 12 hours the spam emails start getting sent from my account.
     I can view the locations of logins to my Yahoo Email and they are typically from Canada when the hacking occurs.  After this hacker has gained access to my account then they start sending spam from my email to all of my contacts for a link to buy some sort of berry supplement.
    How is this hacking happening through my Blackberry?  Is there a virus on the device?  

    Yours would be THE first with a virus... so let's knock that out.
    What's happing is there is a plethora of spammers and "bot" spammers out there which do nothing but find active Yahoo email accounts and "fake" the email "sent" from ID from those "bot" spam machines. They don't know your password. It just sees an active email account, and makes it appear your account is sending those emails.
    They don't have to have your account password. No hacking. Just simple tom-foolery.

  • I cannot open any emails in my Yahoo email (IE8 does) - why?

    First of all, I can open my Yahoo emails on my laptop which uses Firefox, and on my Kindle. But on my PC they just will not open with Firefox! They do open on my PC with IE8. I was using version 28.0 but reinstalled Firefox 28.0 to no avail. Any ideas for me? I do not want to switch to IE as my default browser!

    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.
