Still Can't Delete Emails

I have seen several threads from the past few months about not being able to delete email from Mail. I have Mail 3.2 running 10.5.2 and out of the blue Mail stopped deleting messages. They turn grey for a bit after being deleted, but eventually become black again. I have Mail set to move deleted messages to the Trash folder immediately. I have tried rebuilding, reboot then rebuilding, tossing out the plist preferences. Nothing seems to work. The only solution I have seen on the forums that says it works it to upgrade to 10.5.2, but I'm already there.
Thanks

Yes, their email is powered by Yahoo! who is having critical issues with their email products. It's been all over the news so I'm surprised you didn't see it.

Looks like you just need to wait it out. Good luck!

  • Can't Delete Email from .Mac

    Hi,
    I'm having an issue where I can't delete email from my .Mac account using the web interface or the Mail client. I receive the following error message when I try to delete messages:
    "Mail was unable to remove the deleted message in the mailbox ".Mac" on server "mail.mac.com". The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "mail.mac.com" on port 143 time out."
    This problem just surfaced today and I can't find any information on the .Mac website. Thanks for any help.
    Cheers,
    Ignats

    I was hoping that it would be a temporary issue but it is still continuing 24 hours later. I'm fairly certain that it is not an issue with the Mail client because I can delete email from my other accounts; still can't delete email from my .Mac account. I continue to receive the error message in my original post.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
    Thanks m.bode for responding to my question.

  • HT1277 can I delete emails from my IPhone and the server as well?

    Can I delete emails from both my IPhone 5 and the server as well?

    It's very easy to do - open up the music app, find the song/artist/album you want to delete and then swipe on it right to left and press 'delete'. Once you have done this it will take up no more space on your device whether it's in the cloud or not.
    If the song is still appearing in the music app with a little cloud next to it then you can stop it from showing by going into settings, music, and turning off 'show all music'. Note that this will remove ALL songs from the music app that have the cloud next to it (the cloud means they are in the cloud, online, but not stored on the device) and if you want to play them you will have to open itunes and redownload it, or change this setting back to on.
    Let me know if you need any more help!

  • Can't delete email since updating to 10.5.3

    Since I updated my OSX to 10.5.3 three days ago, I can't delete email messages in Mail. I get the following error message "The destination mailbox “(null)” does not allow messages to be moved to it."
    I've rebuilt mailboxes, deleted trash mailboxes, rebooted,etc,etc, to no avail. Anyone else experiencing this? Does this have something to do with the update?

    Richard,
    With this last report, along with the first, it would appear that Mail may have taken the account Offline during the time .mac was down, and it is still Offline. This is not the same as being connected to the internet, but related to the account only. Is there any symbol beside the mailboxes associated with this .mac account?
    If you have more than one account, click on Mailbox in the menubar and place the cursor on Online Status -- for the .mac account is Take "the account name" Online presented, or only Offline? If you have only the one account, the the first entry in the pull down with either say Take Account Online or Offline.
    Although with a .mac account (setup as account type .mac/IMAP) the Inbox and messages reside on the server, the index in Mail has the list of messages -- just not the content.
    Btw, you say the last Update -- if your OSX is 10.5.3, then please change your settings in the discussions Profile.

  • Can't delete emails from "read only" Mail account

    I am trying to delete emails to clear hard drive space.
    On one of my computer's accounts (ONLY one), the mailboxes have the heading "read only", and I can't delete emails. I don't remember selecting this setting, and I can't find it anywhere.
    Can someone please point me in the right direction--how do I turn off the "read only" status of the InBox? And--is that why I can't delete emails??
    Thank you!

    I've had trouble with JavaMail starting on July 21st. I've used the same code for months, but all of a sudden, I can't delete messages from Gmail using the DELETED flag. I open the folder as READ_WRITE, grab the messages from the folder, set the DELETED flag, double check to make sure the DELETED flag was set, then close the folder (setting EXPUNGE to TRUE). Nothing happens. No exception is thrown or message is given, and no messages get deleted from the inbox (they just remain sitting there). I've tried calling the EXPUNGE method manually after setting the DELETED flag, but then it complained that the underlying implementation could not execute the method because the message was READ ONLY!!! I'm out of ideas. I've posted on Google's forums, but every other .NET and command terminal commands seem to still be working. I'm wondering if Gmail altered their configuration to become more compliant with the IMAP protocol, and JavaMail (or its underlying implementation) is still not 100% compliant?
    Thanks for your consideration.

  • HT1694 I did that, still can't send email, Ipod touch STILL says account information is incorrect (it's not) what now then???

    I followed the steps detailed on the help page for resolving email issues with Hotmail (Live.com) did everything listed, followed all the steps, still can't send email, Ipod touch STILL says account information is incorrect (it's not) what now then???

    Can you access the account on another device?
    Have you tried when connected to another network?
    Have you tried deleting the account from the iPod and reentering the settings since it is easy to make an error.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • TS3899 I still can not send email from my ipad but iPhone works on those accounts

    I still can not send email from my .mac account or a .comcast.net from my ipad. I how 2 people so far that has brought to my attention. We have exchange accounts setup on the ipads for work. I compare the settings from iPad to iPhone from my view it appears identical. I am looking at an iPad 2 and a Mini.
    I turned on and off the ipads and nothing really changed. The emails come into those accounts.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    VickiHTC

    When you say you can't send...as in they never get the email?  Does the email appear to send?  Error message?  When?
    It may be more than one iPad that has a problem....

  • After settings update can,t delete email without opening it

    After settings update can,t delete email without opening it

    In your mail list, do you see the word 'edit'? If you choose that then you can select whatever mails you want gone and delete them at once.

  • I tried rebooting, still can't delete unwanted icons

    Still can't delete unwanted apps or bookmarks.  Started yesterday when I updating iPad to PC.  Frustrating to all of a sudden have this issue

    You do realize that you cannot delete the preinstalled apps?
    If you have restrictions turned on - you may have disabled the deleting of apps as well. Settings>General>Restrictions>deleting apps>Off.
    BTW ... You do realize that you don't have to start another discussion either - don't you?
