Synchronise ios mail sent items with yahoo?

I have got a new iMac and have my Yahoo email account synchronised with iOS Mail. The inboxes across my devices are the same but any emails sent from iOS mail do not appear on my Yahoo account or on my iPad or iPhone. Has anyone come across this before? Is there a solution to synchronise Sent Items?
Thanks
Alastair

Ok I solved the problem for the benefit of anybody who might find this post and have a similar problem.
The problem was I used windows mail and later windows live mail for years and they had created a lot of different folders which synced with my imap folders, my host default folders were as follows
drafts
inbox
sent items
spam
trash
other folders which appeared in some of my accounts depending on which mail programs I had used to access them were as follows
deleted items
deleted messages
junk E-mail
Notes
sent
sent messages
1) I deleted my accounts from my mac and other devices such as my iphone in mac mail this is under
Mail menu----preferences-----accounts highlight the acount and press the minus button
2) then I logged into my online mail account for my host, moved items from folders such as "sent" and "sentmessages" to my default "sent items" folder, they had been placed in these odd folders by various email clients and deleted those non default folders
3) I then re set up those accounts in mac mail and highlighted the "sent items" folder in the left hand menu in each case and then went to the
mailbox menu---- use this mailbox for-----sent
4) then finally re synced my iPhone mail accounts, now it all works and my mail accounts are nice and clean
hope this helps someone

Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items?

Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items with an IMAP server account. Everything else works okay but there is two sent directories and no contant in any of them ...
Trouble is the same in both iPhone4 and iPad.
Exactly the same account shows everything on my Macintosh. Including Sent items.

Using the method described above I see outgoing messages that were sent from Mail on my iMac in the correct mailboxes for 2 different MobileMe accounts.
You seem to be having and issue where your database/setting are corrupted if your messages are in the wrong outbox. I would suggest deleting the accounts from your iPad and the reconfiguring them.
While viewing an email at the top of the screen, left of the trash icon, you should se a Folder icon. Click on that to send the message to another folder. Page 59 of the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_2_user_guide.pdf

N8 - Syncing Sent Items with IMAP?

I know this one's an old hat but: Is it possible to sync the local sent folder in the N8 mail application with the IMAP sent folder?
As far as I know Nokia phones weren't able to do that for ages and this bug still seems to be present in Symbian^3. I mean what's the point of IMAP if half the implementation is missing?
Maybe there's a way to assign the local sent folder to an IMAP folder (like in Apple Mail) or something?
Help greatly appreciated!

I have exactly the same problem with my Nokia N8 mail client.
I use native IMAP account (not the nokia messaging stuff).
This is possible by not accepting the terms and conditions
when asked at the time you create your very first mail account.
I subscribed to all IMAP folders:
Deleted Items
Drafts
Inbox
Junk E-mail
Sent Items
Spam
Then I went back into the mail panel and clicked on the folder
selection button and then on "Ordner" (folders). There I get
this list:
Eingang
Entwürfe
Gesendet
Ausgang
Deleted Items
Drafts
Junk E-mail
Sent Items
Spam
As you can see the first 4 ones are the localized German folders.
"Eingang" seems to map 1:1 with Inbox that is why Inbox does
not appear in the list. But for example "Gesendet" does not map
to "Sent Items". Instead every mail I sent from my N8 will be
stored in "Gesendet" and every mail I sent from my desktop
Windows Live Mail client will appear in "Sent" on my N8.
This is so stupid, it completely breaks the idea behind IMAP!
I would consider this as a very high priority bug and I really
wonder that this is not yet fixed?
I even wonder if they are aware of this bug??
PLEASE GUYS FIX THIS!

On OSX 10.6.8 Mac Mail sent items do not show the Bcc field. Adjusting settings in mail/prefs/viewing/custom/bcc has no affect on Mail, ie Bcc still does not appear on sent items. Anyone got a fix?

Yet another example of Mac caring not a jot about the performance of versions of OS and software running on on older hardware. Anyone got a fix by any chance? Oh and fyi I need to see the Bcc in sent items to confirm sent email is attaching to Salesforece - when I see the Bcc I know I can delete it as a copy will be in SForce. Big thanks W.

Sent items on yahoo Imap not synchronising with sent items on yahoo mail outlook 2011

I had a problem where the my yahoo imap which I set up with Outlook 2011 was not synchronizing with Yahoo from the web.
I found the solution today by switching from Sent items( Server) to Sent( Server).
1. Go to tools
2. Accounts
3.Advance options
4. Folders
5. Then you will see sent. Drop down the window and you will see what I have shown in the screen shot below.
It worked for me and now all my emails are synchronising very well.

the last sentence should read...."this folder do however only have the sent emails that was sent from my imac, and not the emails that was sent from my ipad".
I want all my sent items on all my devices the same, in other words the should come from the server and not the specific device I'm using

Mail Sent Items not Syncing with Rackspace Server

Hi,
My sent items are not fully syncing with my rackspace email account. Some items sent through Mail show up in the rackspace sent items and some do not. I am worried that emails are not being sent. Also, when replicating, Mail will show something like "outgoing messages 35 of 35", when I send a single email to a single individual. What is that all about?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi All
Just to add my solution in here. I was gaving the issue where all of my mail had synchronised, and all of my ical and all of addressbook. However, my sent mail folder was not syncing, and worse still, no new sent mail was being saved off in sent mail.
Initially I thought it was a mailbox size thing, so I archived off the majority of my mail on another machine, deleted the sent mails, and then let the other machine sync with Exchange.
However still the same issue on a tiny mailbox. After seeing this thread (pointed here by Apple Tech support - thanks Clement) i deleted all sent mails on another machine, jumped back onto mac mail.app and all was well.
I still have a weird issue with delinquent emails in sent mail that wont delete, but I can live with that.
I too wish that Apple would make a more robust mail application - Apple ProMail as part of the iwork suite anyone??

Yahoo mail sent items confusion.

I'm confused with how yahoo mail is working and syncing between webmail/mac mail and ipad mail.
Inbox seems to work and sync fine.
However re sent items yahoo mail seems to have 2 folders - one titled 'sent' which is mac/ipad/webmail appears near the top and another titled 'sent messages' which appears as a folder.
Messages sent from the ipad/mac i think appear in the folder 'sent messages' but from the web in 'sent.
Why can't it just sync/work with one location for all sent items?
Can gmail work with just one sent items folder? if so i may well migrate!

I'm having the same problem, and the only help I ever seem to find suggested anywhere is "make sure its set up as an IMAP account"
BUT it is! Mail automaticly sets all yahoo accounts up as IMAP. So is this just a yahoo problem? Is there anyway to fix this?
For me the bigger issue isnt that I need to be able to check my e-mail through a web browser regulerly, but on my Iphone and Ipad the account, which is through the mail app, also dosnt show sent mail sent through the mac app.
I agree this makes mail on my mac totally usless.

IPad and iPhone mail sent items does not synch with exchange 365

This has been a longish term issue that vue ignored till now but...
I run exchange 365 hosted service from Microsoft, own domain.
It synchs all no issues with iPad and iPhone mail, contacts calendars etc all except sent items on mail.
My last synced sent items mail is 2012.
It tries to synch ie connecting etc, then fails, locking up mail synch for about an hour then on all folders.
Just want to be able to see sent items stuff

This was a user issue. The webmail account I have stored the Mails other folders under personal folders and there I found that my sent mail had been getting sync'd.
The answer is on the server not the OS Mail

Sent items in Yahoo Mail sometimes don't appear but recipient receives email?

Does anyone else experience this? Is there a way of resolving the problem?
I have sent a couple of test emails to myself and they show up in my sent items and I do receive the email. The person I sent the email too did receive it yesterday but I have sent another email to them today and that has not shown up in my sent folder so I can't be sure if they recieved the email or not?

Check Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mail behaviors section
as well if your mail provider supports web mail - check its settings, you may have some rules to move sent mail to another folder, delete it etc...

Mac mail stopped working with Yahoo! mail

Last month my mac mail app stopped downloading any of the normal mail from my frontier.com mail account hosted by Yahoo!
All I see is Apple mail coming in occasionally. This is beyond strange and it looks like a problem specific to Mac Mail as Thunderbird downloads everything using the same settings.
Has anyone else run into this with Frontier? Please help!

Sometimes this issue is caused by a misconfiguration or incompatibility of the Exchange server, or perhaps by a bug in Mail. If so, you won't be able to resolve it yourself. The fact that your iOS devices may be working well with the same account isn't relevant, because iOS uses a completely different protocol (ActiveSync) to communicate with Exchange servers. By default, OS X Mail uses the EWS protocol.
Each of the following steps has been reported to help, at least temporarily, in some cases (not all):
1. Back up all data. Open the Internet Accounts pane in System Preferences and check to make sure you don't have duplicate Exchange accounts. If you do, delete all but one of the duplicates. If there are no duplicates, delete the account and recreate it with the same settings.
2. Rebuild the affected mailbox.
3. Reindex messages.
4. Follow the instructions in this support article to disable autodiscovery. You may need to get configuration details from the server administrator.
5. In the Keychain Access application, delete the password item for the account. The next time Mail tries to access the account, you'll be prompted for the password. Check the box to save it in the Keychain.
6. If you've created subfolders of the Exchange inbox, log in to the server through its web interface, move the messages out, and remove the subfolders. The inbox should have no subfolders.
7. Synchronize with the server using IMAP rather than EWS. This is only possible if IMAP is enabled on the server.
8. Consider using Outlook instead of Mail to access your Exchange mail. It uses yet another proprietary protocol (MAPI) that isn't available to other mail clients.

Apple mail - sent item duplicates

I have two computers with osx 10.4 installed.
Each has a unique imap account. Somehow, within the last few months some sent message (particularly ones with attachments) are duplicated in the sent items folder.
I setup a rule that emails the person sending the email a copy of the same message. Sure enough, when an email is drafted and sent 'once' it occasionally sends twice to the recipient.
This happens most often when an attachment is included with the email, but not always.
Any ideas?
I have rebuilt mailbox indexes and installed all current updates.

How do flagged emails in iOS Mail app sync with Gmail Starred emails?

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how the "Flagged" mailbox on iOS mail interacts with Gmail's "starred" messages. It seems that messages that I star on Gmail and then archive do not show up in the Flagged mailbox on iOS, and that only starred messages that are still in my inbox show up. Is that correct? DOes anyone know a workaround to get starred and archived messages to show up?
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply, but the Gmail app is not the solution. I have three different accounts, and I want to have just one folder where all my flagged/starred emails are collated. I don't want to be jumping between different accounts.

IOS Mail syncing issues with iCloud - emails from 1970!!!!!

Hi
I woke up this morning to find some very weird behaviour on my iOS devices (iPhone 5 32GB, iPad 2 32GB).
Both mail apps are synced to my mail accout with icloud yet both only seem willing to sync with all email from today and yesterday, and then only show emails from late November 2012. My iPad also seems to believe that I was sent some emails from 01/01/1970!!!!
As far as I am aware all was fine yesterday, and all seems to be fine with mail on my Mac.
Any advice much appreciated,
I deleted the account from my phone and then re-added it but the problem was still there.
Many thanks
Andy

I have previously successfully fixed similar problem by resetting all settings. Settings - general - reset - reset all settings. Do not click the line that says erase content. You will lose your screen wallpaper, your wifi password and other minor stuff that is not worth mentioning, but nothing important.
