Sent email problem

Please help! My sent emails are going to the original sent folder, and a copy of them is added to a folder called "sent messages" whenever I go to iCloud.com! I need help! I think the copies of my sent emails are adding up to my iCloud space, so I need to get rid of the copies without deleting the originals. If you have any ideas, please help.

You could but I'm not sure it would solve anything.  You might want to try going to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn Mail to Off, then after a minute or so turn it back to On.  This will remove and re-add your iCloud email account and may fix things.  Then try sending a test message and see if it gapes to the correct Sent folder.

  • Outlook Sent Email Problem!

    I use Outlook 2010 and use two accounts one is btinternet and the other a gmail. Over the last few days when I send a gmail it posts a copy in the gmail "Sent Box" and also posts the same copy in the btinternet "Sent Box" - this does
    not happen if I reverse the process. I have trawled Microsoft and other help sites and have not come across any reference to this particular problem or solution only the problem of saving emails twice in one "Sent Box" can anyone help please?

    Hi,
    Have you checked if you have set any Outlook rule to move a copy of sent items to the other account? To check this, please go to Home tab > Rules > Rules & Alerts.
    If you have any antivirus or third-party add-in installed, please temporarily turn off the antivirus and open Outlook in safe mode to test the issue again. To open Outlook in safe mode, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook.exe /safe and press Enter.
    If above doesn't make any difference, please try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and reconfigure your email accounts to check the result.
    Thanks,

  • More "sent email" problems

    For the past several days I've been sending emails that didn't arrive at their destination. However they did reside in my "sent mail" folder.
    Until this morning that is. One moment they are there, the next time I check they are gone. All my old sent mails are still there, but it's like Mail suddenly realized that the ones that never made it to their destination really shouldn't be in the "sent" folder. And thus decided to pretend it never happened.
    Ghost in the machine? Or is there an explanation for this "change of heart"?
    (unfortunately I'm away from home and didn't have my external hooked up for this, so Time Machine is of no help)

    it is IMPOSSIBLE to choose one's closest city without first selecting one's proper zone ('server').
    Really?? Because I can set my time server to Apple Europe (time.euro.apple.com, which you incorrectly stated as time.apple.com in your original post), even though I am in Boston, U.S.A., and doing so *does not* change my displayed time (nor should it, since it merely changes the server my MBP queries for the current time in GMT, as Ned stated). Setting a different time server does not preclude me from selecting any city from Anchorage, Alaska to Vladivostok, Russia in the Time Zone tab.
    I suspect you are confused about how to properly select a city, and more importantly about what a tab is. When you state "scrolling through the tabs" you seem to be referring to the choices for time server in the pop-up menu, but the term "tab" in this context refers to a sub-pane of a preference pane. When you click on System Preferences > Date & Time, below the header bar there are three tabs - Date & Time, Time Zone, and Clock.
    To set your time, go to System Preferences > Date & Time and click on the Date & Time tab, select Apple Americas/U.S. Then, click on the Time Zone tab. (Hint: if you don't see a map of the world here, you are not selecting the Time Zone tab!!) Click on the map somewhere near where you live. Then choose a city from the drop down menu.
    Note that you need to click on the map first - only cities in the selected time zone are selectable in the drop down list. If you *read thoroughly* the instructions in the Time Zone tab, they state "Click your part of the world, then choose a city from the pop-up menu."
    Hope this helps...

  • Having problems with Facebook on my ipad2. Updated operating system. Problem started before that and continues. Can't click on like or make comments. Sent email to Facebook. Their response was that they don't answer individual emails but read them. Sigh!

    Stated above, I have issues with Facebook and my iPad 2. I have updated the operating system, but the problem started before that. Can't click on like or enter comments. Problem started about a week ago. Sent email to Facebook and they responded that they don't answer individual emails but read them. Lots help that was.

    Facebook is basically broken, at least as far as it pertains to mobile browsers. THey changed something in their coding and now mobile browsers don't work with facebook. ANd their app, well their app has been less than stellar for a long time.
    Unfortunately, it's up to facebook to fix things, not apple. All you can do is find work arounds. Look for third party apps, I have one called Facely HD which seems to work reasonably well (even though it does seem to not see all posts). There may be others that work better. You can also simply not access facebook on your mobile until they fix it.
    It's all on them and users can only be patient or find other ways to work around it.

  • Gmail problem-duplicating sent emails

    the title pretty much says it all. I set up a gmail account on the mail app. i sent a email and it keeps duplicating the sent email only showing bits and pieces of it a time until it shows the full sent email. I would have like 10 duplicates of the same sent email. I try to delete it and its come back. I want it to stop what do i do?

    Those are the drafts that are autosaved every minute (hence the partial contents with each version). Those will be automatically cleared out after you send the full email. If you don't want to see them, you should probably not save drafts on the server (Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Mailbox Behaviors>Drafts).

  • Im having problem in Mail. Sent is showing incorrect date and also not showing sent emails that have been successfully sent. Is it a virus?

    Having trouble in MAIL. Running MacOSX(10.6.8) and in MAIL the SENT both doesnt show sent messages( successfully received) and doesnt show correct date sent. Any ideas??

    Not sure about the time stamp problem, but the missing "Sent" mails problem is not uncommon. This problem is one that a lot of people have and in my opinion, I think it's a problem with Apple's mail application, nothing at the user's end.
    Does this happen only when you include an attachment or does that matter? Also, does it only happen when your outgoing message is delayed a bit? Check your junk/spam folder to see if your sent messages went in there.
    This doesn't fix anything, but you might change your e-mail settings so that all new mails are automatically sent Bcc to yourself.
    Sometimes the "missing" sent mails are not going in the right folder. I'm sure you probably already know, but in the left-hand column in MAIL, under Mailboxes, there is a second "sent" folder way at the bottom, depending on your other e-mail accounts, such as Yahoo or Gmail). Many people have discovered their missing "sent" e-mails in those.
    It is a big hassle, for sure, and has been officially reported. Users with complaints are being told that Apple's Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) systems block the connection from a user's e-mail client when it attempts to store outgoing e-mails, which contain attachments, to the users'  sent folder.
    This is supposedly due to the Mac OS/Mac Mail sending non-standard or erroneous commands to the server, emulating the activity which would be generated by an attacker attempting to abuse an exploit in the IMAP server. I doubt you are doing anything wrong, so it's just a matter of waiting for them to FIX this annoying issue.

  • In my MacBook Pro "sent" mailbox emails are listed by my email address but on my iPad the "sent" emails are listed by the sent email address?

    On my MacBook Pro in the "sent" mailbox emails are listed by my email address but on my iPad the "sent" emails are listed by the sent email address.  Very hard to look at the address where the message was sent to?

    After upgrading to IOS 7.0.3 the problems gone.
    There is no mention of this being a bug or a fix so im thinking a software glitch was the issue.
    When I look at a message in my inbox and it says "To: JB Manz" - I click my name and it shows my contact info including my 4 email addresses and the address the message was addressed to is highlighted blue, others all black.
    Not sure how it got fixed but it's working like it used to.

  • I had to refresh my computer, now after re-installing thunderbird, I only see my emails in my inbox, but not my sent emails or addresses.

    Hey there Thunderbird crew and family...
    First of all....well done on all your hard work, keep it up! I have been using Mozilla Thunderbird for a while now...and don't plan on stopping...it's amazing!
    Okay.....soo the problem....
    My laptop needed to be refreshed...as it was almost getting to the point of "the Blue Screen of Death"
    I had to re-install my Thunderbird with the 24.5.0 version... I am using Windows 8
    HOW....do I get my sent messages (which were saved in my sent folder in my previous version of thunderbird), as well as get my Addresses from my address book..?
    Ofcourse I don't have a saved or backed up file of the previous settings...messages....addresses etc....
    but I do see a "windows.old/users" file though.....and I've read many....many different Mozillazines.....as well as even tried to read - Restoring a profile backup / Restoring to a different location - But that required me having to locate a backed up profile.....which again..i wasn't able to back it up.
    I lost my software like Office and Adobe...however all my files and folders of pics...music....letters for work etc etc...have all be restored onto my desktop.
    I have looked through many pages of your forum but I haven't been able to find an answer.....
    Any help..??
    thanks, have a great day.
    Jason

    Hey hey Christ1
    I think we are getting closer to this thing being solved...
    The Update --
    I have all my Mail in One of my accounts (work)....but not all the Mail in the other account (aka my Music account).....
    Both I've set up again..using your advice...and changed both now to IMAP..
    Originally after refreshing my laptop, when I set up Thunderbird....I used the POP settings.....and that's when I messed it up.....
    but using IMAP now....I've gotten more of my old emails .....in my INBOX.....not all.....but most....YIPPIE
    My SENT emails....in my Music account.....have all disappeared.......I've looked in both sent folders...in POP...and IMAP....and nothing is there...
    However my sent folder of my work account...I have SOME of the sent emails...
    Address books....Collected and Personal folders.....I have NO Email Addresses at all.
    Sooo now even though I am getting confident we will solve it.....I still have 4 accounts....aka...2 Work (POP and IMAP).....2 Music (POP and IMAP) until you tell me to delete or change one from each.....
    BOTH IMAP accounts.....do not show new messages...when they come in....however the POP shows it.....I did read that If I deleted the POP to change to IMAP I will not be able to get emails.....sooo not sure what to do about that issue now....
    Is there an "automatic" backup feature for Thunderbird...?? All this could have been soo prevented if I did that....sheesh...
    anyway..thanks so far.... :)

  • How do I retrieve "lost" sent emails?

    Whilst attempting to rectify problems with my wife's mail program in Tiger 10.4.11, on her PowerBook 6.8 12" G4 laptop, I reduced the time from "Never" to "One Week" before sent emails are erased, believing that this would reduce the storage required on the ISP's server.
    Instead I find that all old outgoing emails older than one week, are no longer available on her 12" G4 laptop, and my life has become ****.
    How do I get Mail to display the "lost" outgoing emails?
    The last backup of this machine was about two months ago, so I need to find and restore/import at least the past couple of months of outgoing emails, which have been erased.
    Advice please.

    Unfortunately, it sounds like the missing messages have actually been erased. You might want to download the free trial of this software to see if anything is recoverable. I don't have any personal experience with it.

  • Sent email not getting through

    Problem: No access to smtp server when sending email via Comcast (receive is OK). I have an old PC (Win XP Pro, Outlook Express) being replaced by a new PC (Win 7 Pro, Outlook 2010). When sending email from either machine I get a "socket error: 10013" and the emails don't go out. The new Linksys E2000 seems to be the common point (which replaced a WRT54GS). I have checked the config on this device and it's all fairly vanilla - DHCP (currently using out-of-the-box IP address), wireless with WPA2, no port filtering or special games/apps setups. Everything works includng wireless laptop access to the I-net through the E2000 and wireless printing. Except sent email. No other changes to security software (Norton 360) were (knowingly) made.
    Any ideas?    

    Connect the modem directly to the computer and then check if you can send emails.

  • Outlook 2010 not saving Sent emails in Sent Items Folder

    This problem does not exist on this forum.  Using Outlook 2010 (V 14.0.7106.5001 (64-bit) on Windows 7 64-bit with three accounts: 1 account is Gmail and 2 accounts are IMAP.  The IMAP accounts inexplicably stopped saving Sent emails.  The
    Gmail account still saves the Sent emails.
    Tried already:
    1. Changing the Sent Items setting from Save on folder on computer to Save on server and then changed back to the way it was, which is correct.
    2. Created a new profile and entered the email settings.  Still no sent mails being saved.
    3. Ran Outlook repair.  No luck.
    Not sure where to go with this next.  Never have run into a problem like this before.

    Hi,
    Please make sure you have the emails sent to the recipients successfully, if not, the emails may be saved to other folders if you have the following setting:
    File tab -> Options -> Mail -> If you checked
    Automatically save items that have not been sent after this many minutes,
    Save to this folder, you may have your emails stored in the selected folder if the emails are not sent successfully. 
    Please visit the Webmail site, could you find the sent items there?
    Try Reset View, then try to search for the sent emails by keywords in Advanced Find, can you find the emails?
    Kindly check the following settings:
    File tab -> Options -> Mail
    -> under Save messages, make sure you have checked Save copies of messages in the Sent Items folder
    If none of the above helps, feel free to contact me again.
    Regards.

  • Upgraded icloud storage and lost sent emails

    I upgraded the storage on my iCloud account yesterday and now all of my sent messages from my main email account have vanished.  Does anyone have this problem.  I also have 3 other email accounts and all of the sent messages from those accounts are still present.  I have lost over 13k sent emails that are for my business.  HELP!!!!

    Log into appleid.apple.com and verify that both the email addresses you use do not show up there in the same account. My worry is that you might be mistaking a login alias ([email protected]) as a separate account which it might be one in the same. Either way, if you are having issues downgrading your storage you will need to contact Apple for more assistance.

  • WHY SENT EMAILS ARE NOT IN SENT ITEMS???

    Hi, I've troubles with my brand new c6 that my business company just gave me.
    the problem is that after two days of use, the phone stopped storing sent emails, and this is a real problem for me. tried with a hard and deep reset, but after a day or two still have the same situation. no matters which account i use, business pop3, gmail, others... sent items simply don't exist in folder.
    any advice??
    thnx a lot

    ok...so to clarify...
    you are using pop3 for your email.
    the items that you send are not being stored on your handset
    the items that you send are being stored on your server, so if you check your company email, it is showing up there?
    i would recomend that you set up your email as an IMAP4. it works like exchange, only it doesnt sync contacts/calendar.
    if you were using a blackberry, then it was most likely using the bes service which was probably doing the same thing.
