Sent messages not appearing on iPad...

Why won't my sent email messages appear on my iPad, or in Mail on my MacBook appear even though they have been sent and received?
(The mail account is configured correctly and this function works on my MacBook AND iPhone but never on my iPad)

I'm still having this issue with 2 different IMAP based web mail accounts...
They both send and receive messages just fine, however on my iPad and iPhone the Sent Messages are never saved, yet on my MacBook Pro and Mac Pro they do. The web ail accounts are set up with the EXACT same settings so I'm not sure why my devices won't save my Sent Messages.
Any suggestions?

  • Sent Messages not appearing in Mail

    For the past several days many of my older Sent messages from my Gmail account have not been appearing in the Sent folder in Mail.  The most recent messages from sent from Mail appear, but messages sent from other devices that used to appear in the Sent folder within Mail are not showing up.  I can view my Sent messges within the Gmail IMAP folders and in my Sent folders in my iPad and iPhone Mail apps.  What can I do?

    Select the mailbox in the mailbox list, then select
    Mailbox ▹ Rebuild
    from the menu bar.

  • Mail & Exchange - Sent Messages not appearing in Sent mailbox

    Once setting up an Exchange account in Mail everything seems to be working fine except that when I send any emails they don't appear in the "Sent" folder. When I log in under webmail they do appear. Anyone else find a solution to this problem?
    Thanks for any help.

    I'm having my own share of problems with Mail 4.2 and Exchange Server 2007. See this post.
    In addition to the Junk mail problem, I'm experiencing overall sluggishness. Mail takes longer than it should to quit, and sometimes I get the spinning pizza Loading… icon on simple text messages. I wish I could go back to re-configuring my Mail account to be POP instead of the auto discovery Exchange method.
    As to the Sent mail problem, I am not experiencing that issue. I don't know if this will help, but go to your Exchange account configuration in Mail, click Mailbox Behaviors, and under Sent check "Store sent messages on the server" and for "Delete sent messages when:" choose Never.
    My Sent messages all show up in my Sent folder in Mail, but they take a second. From what I can gather, these messages are sent to the Exchange Server first, and then downloaded by Mail. An unnecessary step, I feel, but I guess that's the way Exchange Servers work.

  • Sent messages not appearing/sent box

    I too am finding at times and it seems to be when the message doesn't go out immediately, that it think it goes but doesn't appear in the SENT box although some do receive the message.
    I really don't want to BCC myself in everything I send.
    Mac mail has given me more problems since July/12 than Outlook did in 10 years.

    Hi Bronco_6
    What do you mean by .Mac Mail? If you mean using a web browser to access your mail, then by default it does not save items in your Sent Messages folder. This is a Mailbox Behaviour preference that you can set by clicking on the Preferences text at the top right of the web page.
    If you are talking about using a .Mac mail account in the Mail application on OS X then that's of course a different issue. It should work by default.
    You may mean a combination of both. It took me a while to spot that messages sent via the Web page didn't end up in the Sent folder within Mail.app. Instead they appear in Sent Messages under the .Mac folder.
    Hope That Helps.

  • Using iCloud, it seems like some documents in Keynote saved on iMac do not appear on iPad.....does it matter where they are saved on the iMac?

    Using iCloud, it seems like some documents in Keynote saved on iMac do not appear on iPad.....does it matter where they are saved on the iMac?
    They are saved on desktop........any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Documents saved to the desktop won't be shared to iCloud. Which operating system are you using on the Mac.

    Does anyone have problems with sent messages not showing in their Mail? I have two sent folders when really I only want one. Any tips?

    Not sure if this is a fix, but I tried sending myself a test email from only  the Bcc field, and lo and behold it now shows the Bcc field in all sent item previews;
    ...maybe leaving the 'To' field blank on purpose forced Mail to show it.
    Rebooted the Mail program, still there - rebooted the machine, still there. Hope this is still relevant and it works for you too - J.

  • Sent messages not showing ipad

    When I reply to or initiate an email from my ipad they are not shown in the sent box. How can I access sent my messages?

    Unlike outlook on my pc, safari on the iPad does not have an outbox only inbox sent and drafts. If outlook fails to send a sent message it lets you know. What happens to the 'sent' message if the iPad fails to send it by safari? Not in drafts nor in sent and no advice that not sent. Any way of finding it? No sent messages are stored on my server.

  • Messages not appearing in sent mail folders

    We recently migrated from a linux environ to mac server snow leopard. I'm now using Thunderbird as a testbed for my mail client as we have deeply populated mac mail clients that we don't want to disturb if our migration goes bad. Previously, I used both the mail app on mac and Thunderbird as my mail clients depending... Previously, when I would send a msg from my blackberry it would appear in my sent mail folder (on any mail client). Now it does not. Any suggestions as to why? Thanks.

    Can you see the sent message when using webmail on the server? If so you may just need to map the sent area of each mail client to the proper folder on the server, assuming you are using IMAP.

  • Messages icon not appearing on iPad 1, although able to use when I search for the application

    I have an iPad 2 that has messages installed after updating to ios5. My step daughters iPad 1 has the messages built in app but it does not appear on any home screen. If we search for the application it shows up and we are able to use it.
    Is there anyway he can get the app icon to appear on the home screen?

    If you press Ctrl and F5 at the same time, does that change? I believe Google (I'm assuming that is what you are referring to) changes search results somewhat based on if you are signed in and your preferences, etc. Try signing out of google if you are signed in.

  • Sent mail not appearing in icloud

    I use my macbook air, iphone and my ipad to send mail from my @me.com account. But when i send an email from my macbook it does not appear in the sent mail folder on icloud. The iphone and ipad both work properly if i send mail from either device it appears in the icloud sent mail folder.
    I've been trough the settings on my macbook and have the "Store sent messages on sever" option ticked, and the email accoutn is set up as an IMPA account but it still doesn't work.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Same here! Works on my iPad, iPhone and MacAir. But on my PowerMac the sent mail doesn't show up at all. I can't even find the messages I've tried to send so I can try retype them and resend on my iPhone.
    Does your "sent" folder continually beach ball? Mine is non-stop beach balls. Like it's trying really hard to update the sent folder but ran into a Sysiphus stone.
    hmm.

  • Sent Messages Not Showing Up?

    Emails that I am sending from my iCloud account on my iPhone are being saved to the server but a copy is not stored on any of my devices (iPhone/iPad/Macbook).  So if I go to the sent mailbox on the phone, the message does not appear there.
    I changed settings under Mailbox Behaviors to switch to "iPhone", but then it does not store a copy on the server - just locally on the phone.
    Am I missing some sort of setting that allows me to send a message from my iPhone and it both shows up in the "sent" mailbox on the phone and on the server?  My Yahoo mail used to do this so I'm not sure why me.com/iCloud mail could not also do this.  HELP!

    enni5, are you referring to text messages or iMessages? Also, there is a bug in OSX where if you send iMessages rom your iOS device and receive them and then later try to view them on your computer, they become extremely jumbled. (out of order). If you're referring to text messages, remember that these are NOT saved in iCloud because they are carier specific. iCloud only uses iMessage to communicate.

  • Sent messages only appear in the sent folder after restarting Thunderbird

    Hi, my problem is that sent messages do not appear in the sent folder unless I restart Thunderbird. I have the sent 'copies' box de-checked as if not although it syncs I end up with two copies (of sent messages).
    I am using Thunderbird 31.2.0 on OSX Yosemite connecting via IMAP to ZOHO mail with STARTTLS on 587 for SMTP.
    Hope you can advise, I've tried SSL/TLS on 465 also and it is the same. It's a bit of an inconvenience not being able to view the sent messages.
    Many thanks

    Interesting to know (the RFC violation) but as you say, perhaps not relevant as such, although if ZOHO wasn't auto-placing a copy in sent then I could check the 'place a copy in' option and it would work ok.
    Anyhow, I tried your recommendations and yes, I use both an Android and an iPad to also check my mail but with both disconnected from Wi-Fi the problem still persists. There are a few warnings being reported in the TB error console on the Mac but they just relate to 'mso-table-lspace' for my INBOX.
    And for info in Thunderbird on my Ubuntu laptop the problem is exactly the same -
    'Place a copy' checked - Messages instantly appear in the sent folder but there are two copies.
    'Place a copy' de-checked/Cached connections = 5 - Messages only appear in the sent folder after restarting Thunderbird
    'Place a copy' de-checked/Cached connections = 1 - Messages appear in the sent folder on clicking out of the folder and back in.
    On Ubuntu there is nothing at all in the error console.
    I can work with how things are at this stage as I don't live in the sent folder (rather the inbox), and when you click into it (with the connections cache at 1) the messages do appear, so I suppose that's actually ok.

  • Sent messages not going to sent folder

    I know this has been asked a bunch of times. This IPAD was purchased in May 2010.
    When I go to the sent box on the IPAD it shows the same emails as are in the inbox, but no sent messages I sent via the IPAD.
    I've read through all the emails discussion boards and can't find any suggestions that work. The email account is a secondary user on the MAC, so I'm not sure if that's an issue.
    I've started blind copying myself to get the messages to the MAC, but is there a way to keep them in the IPAD SENT folder?

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let us know and we can move this thread to the Thunderbird queue. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

  • Sent messages not saved in sent mailbox

    Lately some iCloud sent messages are not saved in the sent mailbox.  this is an intermitant problem.  sometimes msgs go to the outbox even though mail is on line; when they are eventually sent sometimes they do not make it to the sent mailbox.  I call the recipient and the msg has actually been received.  The lost messages do not appear in iCloud.  Rebuild does not help.  any suggestions?

    Tks for your answer. I have a .Mac account and in already try in Preferences-Accounts- and I only see three tabs: " Account Information ", " Mailboxes Behaivor " and " Advanced ". I don´t see the " Special Mailboxes " tab that you mention and I have also read about it. In Mailboxes Behaivor I can choose the option " Store sent messages on the server " and the Delete sent messages option is in " Never". If I choose not to Store sent messages on the server, nothing seems to happen. I hope you can help me with this information and I want to thank you again

  • Message not working on iPad

    When I am connected to the 4G network messaging does not work. Messaging does however work when I am connected to WiFi

    I was having the same problem. It has something to do with the icloud email address. Here is a link to a TekRevue article that has easy steps for managing the messages. I also had to check my iPhone phone number for the iPad to display the code.
    Here is the text of the article:
    Thankfully, a MacRumors reader discovered the solution to the problem: make sure your iCloud email address is enabled for iMessage on your iPhone:
    …you need to have your email address turned on for iMessage on your iPhone in order to enable Text Message Forwarding. If you don’t, the numeric access code will not appear on your iPad or Mac during the setup process. As soon as you enable your email address for iMessage (you only need to do this on your iPhone) the numeric access codes appear as expected. Once you have text message forwarding setup you can disable your email address again in iMessage as it seems to only be necessary for the numeric access code setup step, not the actual text message forwarding itself.
    As iMessage users will remember, Apple lets users enable both their phone number and email address as methods for the receipt of text messages. Some users may have disabled their email address and chosen only their phone number in order to maintain consistency between iMessages and regular SMS messaging, and it appears that these users are the ones experiencing problems with SMS relay setup.
    To enable your email in Messages, grab your iPhone and head to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. There, you’ll find all of the addresses at which you can be reached via iMessage. Enable your iCloud email address by tapping on it, then head back to your Mac or iPad and again request the pairing verification code from the Messages app. This time, you should see a box appear on your iPhone in which you can enter the code.
