Sent email showing as unread mean

In my sent inbox on icloud, it shows 2 unread messages. Does that mean the receivers haven't read the message yet or does that mean I have been blocked?

mail accounts of the type pop3 does not "share" info about if mails have been read on other devices or webmail
only imap and exchange types does that

As Munas said, if the email account isn't using IMAP it won't work.
Here in the States, Comcast is the main culprit for this happening.
If you are with them, there is not much you can do. At least nothing that I can think of off the top of my head.

Sent mail shows 429 Unread, but none show

I routinely delete sent mail. Last week my iPhone 5s shows 429 unread emails in my sent folder, but there aren't any. How can I fix this problem?

Hi there Howard C,
You may want to try removing the effected account then adding it back again. Take a look at the article below for more information.
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.

Ios7 - emails showing as unread in hotmail

So I just downloaded ios7 and my little email icon is now showing that I have 6719 unread email messages - even though I don't.
They're all in one of my hotmail email accounts, not any of my other ones (either hotmail or gmail). When I search for the word 'unread', it says there are no unread emails in any of my inboxes, and yet the icon is still displaying 6719.
Can anyone help or advise?

Hey, I just had this problem, showed 9000 unread hotmail emails, now fixed it.
Delete the hotmail account completely, via settings and then add new "outlook" account with all the same signin details and hotmail address.
Job Done !

TS3276 Lion mail; sent emails show up in the draft folder as well as the sent folder. Often the draft will appear a day after the email was actually sent

Lion mail
Emails that have been Sent show up in the Draft folder as well as th e Sent folder.
Often they may not show up in Draft folder until the next day.
Is there a correction for this?

no, I only use mac as my incoming and outgoing server.
What I did was un check the draft box in the mail preferences,
and will see if that works. Since I use only the computer for emails
the cloud isnt being used to its max anyway.
Thanks taking time to share

One of our Blackberry users travelled abroad this week with his Blackberry.
Whist there, he noticed when sending emails, they were showing twice in his sent box, with one being in blue.
Any suggestions what this is and how it can be changed?

Sent mail showing as unread

Recently, my sent mail is showing up in my Sent folder as unread. I've tried rebuilding my Sent mailbox but that hasn't worked. Other than that, Mail is working fine. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this problem?
I'm looking for solutions, not "I have the same problem! Man, Apple really needs to fix this!" I'm not looking to commiserate with anyone.

In the implementation of Mail 3.x, the Attachments folder in this location is normal, although not seen in Mail 2.x -- it is likely not involved in your issue.
Now that we have identified that you are using an IMAP style account, please check Mail Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors and report the selections made regarding Sent messages?
Do you use this MobileMe account on more than one computer or device, btw.

HT1430 sent email shows in sent file but does not arrive at destination address

I can receive emails into my ipone. but when I send an email it will not arrive at the destination email in bot even though it does show that the email was sent inthe send file.

What type of email account are you using?
Have you tried different email addresses to send to?

Sent email showing in .mac inbox

I searched about this and saw others having issues with Yahoo and Gmail accounts, but didn't see any regarding .Mac.
I send email from the iPhone and it shows up in my inbox on the computer as well as going to the person I sent it to. Why? How do I stop this?
Thanks
Ron

It seems that the Mail prefs on the computer were the problem. Under Accounts>Mailbox Prefs> checked the Store sent messages on the server and this solved the problem.

Why do my sent emails show up in inbox?

I have a gmail account that I use for my iphone email. Everything works fine, except...whenever I send someone an email, a few minutes later I hear the "email chime" and I think "oh good, they just wrote back." However, sitting in my inbox is a copy of the email I just sent to the person. Any ideas why this happens and how I can get this to stop?
I went in to my email settings and "Always Bcc Myself" is OFF.
Thanks!

I'm really sorry, but I'm not sure what a POP account is...I wanted to be able to use the email system built in to iphone so I created a new account online via gmail and then set up the account in my iphone using instructions from a book I bought (the iphone pocket guide).
More importantly, I cannot find the "recent" setting you mention within the email setting on iphone.
Thanks for being patient!

Why do my sent emails show in my inbox?

I am using Gmail with the Apple Mail app.
When I select "Inbox" it also shows my sent mail whether it has replies or not.
How can I get the Inbox, Sent, etc selections again?

This has been posted before.
This is a feature of Gmail. Everything you send gets sent back to you so you always have a copy of it on the server, no matter where you send mail from (iphone, mac, pc, etc). For example, with most mail servers, if I send mail via the mail application, the only place I can view it is from that mail app. If I go on a different computer and try to view the mail I sent, it will not be there. This is why gmail sends a copy to the server.
Not sure if you can get rid of it. I just move them into the sent folder.
Try searching the forums, there might be more answers.

Email showing as unread

I was able to clear this issue by heading into the account it was showing up under. I then hit edit, marked all as unread, then hit edit again and marked all as read. This cleared the issue

Sent email showing up in inbox, BCC not selected

Hi, Recently I've been noticing that my @me emails are showing up in my inbox whenever I send a message even though I have not selected to BCC myself on messages, anyone have any troubleshooting tips, this is really annoying and clogging up my inbox and making conversations hard to track with this happening. Thanks! Steph

Have you checked to make sure you aren't CCing yourself?

Read email showing as unread

Using an iMac 2011 with Mavericks 10.9.4. Been having issues with the Mail client leaving mail that has been read in the 'unread' smart box. The account is an IMAP, and I have done the empty the whole thing and start over routine, and that works. However I don't want to keep having to do this over and over, since some of my boxes are large.
Instead of a fix, is there a solution to this problem? Or is there something that I need to do on the other end of the IMAP, since the email is on a domain I own, not gmail or yahoo.
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply. This worked!
My main thought is why does this happen all the time? I know from looking around here that it just isn't me this is happening to. Is there some sort-of permanent fix?
Again, thanks for the help!
Blair
