Takes forever to permanently delete e-mails
Whenever I get 30-40 emails in my deleted items folder and select "delete all", my phone locks up for a good 2-3 minutes while it deletes the emails. Anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions?
ok so did you say you have the options to delete ALL?
Can you just please tell me where that is? I have stuck deleting individually.

TS5367 why do images take forever to load in my mail?
just upgraded to 10.8.3 and now my mail takes forever to load images, banners, html, etc. even images that were previously loaded arent there when I reopen the program Mail v6.3
Seems like it is still in the downloading process which may provide some lag time. Do you have slow or limited internet?

Help! I've "permanently" deleted a bunch of important e-mails!
I deleted a "Blank" folder from my archived e-mails, and went to clear the deleted items from the archive. A separate folder full of important e-mails was also deleted. It there a way to recover "permanently" deleted e-mails or
am I out of luck?Yes, you can easily recover your permanently deleted emails from Outlook at FREE of cost by following just simple steps:
• Make a duplicate copy of Outlook PST file
• Open Hex Editor
• Open PST file with Hex Editor from which you want to recover
emails
• Delete the position 7 through 13 with the space bar. In
the Hexadecimal system, this process actually deletes 13 characters at the following positions:
00007, 00008, 00009, 0000a, 0000b, 0000c, 0000d, 0000e, 0000f, 00010, 00011, 00012, 00013
(When you clear a position using spacebar, the editor displays the value "20" each time.)
or
• Select the value start from 07 to next 13 values. Go to
» Edit » File
Selection » Ok
• This action will replace all values to 00
• After clearing these positions, save PST file. Now, you
have corrupted PST file.
• Run scanpst.exe tool
• Browse corrupt PST file and scan
• Repair PST
• Now open PST file and check deleted items. -

Excahange 2007 Need to permanently delete all emails older than x years
Cant get to the 2007 forum so don't know if this is the right place.
Trying to permanently delete all mail older than 4 years from our Exchange 2007 server. I have worked with Powershell in 2010 (Exchange)
but I cannot run due to some restrictions with 32/64 bit powershell limitations in exchange 2007.
I have searched google and these forums -- there has to be an easy way to do this or someone that can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advanceHi,
In Exchange 2007, you can use the following cmdlet to delete emails older than the mentioned date from a mailbox.
Export-Mailbox -Identity xxx -StartDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -EndDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -DeleteContent
If you need to perform this on a set of mailboxes, paste all display names to a TXT file, name is as "test.txt". Run the following cmdlet.
Get-Content test.txt | Export-Mailbox -StartDate "xx/xx/xxxx" -EndDate "xx/xx/xxxx" –DeleteContent –Maxthreads 4
Hope this can be helpful to you.
Best regards,
Amy Wang

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not. I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again. How can I fix this?
If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them. 800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly. Hope this helps.

How do I clean up mail in my icloud? I have already deleted old mail (from all my e-mail accounts) on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much room). When I go to manage storage on any device & it will display how much room each program or app is using, it still shows that my e-mail is taking up the most room. Is there a way to actually log on to the icloud server to manage what it stored there? If so, how do I do it? Also, on a related subject, why does my mail not sync accross all devices? ie. when I delete an email on one device, why do I still see it on all my other devices? How can I change this?
I have an iphone5, ipad2, ipod 4th gen, ipod 3rd gen, all running on my same apple id - but I have a PC not a Mac home computer - is this part of the problem? Looking to upgrade to a Mac sometime this year...

I do have the Time Capsule and spoke to Apple Care here in Sydney about it yesterday. They told me my mail is not backed up there unless I create a special folder. I just tried ringing them again but Apple Care is closed today...
Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule -
My I Mac, using 10.8.4 is very slow, mail takes forever to open and the spinning pinwheel starts every time I try to use mail. any suggestions?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
How full is your Mac's hard drive?
How full is your Apple Mail?
How many applications do you run simultaneously in the background while working in another application?
Do you run any antivirus software on your Mac? Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X.
Do you run any "crapware" like Mackeeper or any other type of "crapware" like so called hard drive "cleaning" apps? -
I realise that there is a temporary way to prevent this happening by unticking the 'mail' option in the spotlight search settings menu, but how do you permanently delete the emails? I assumed that when I hit delete then emptied the trash box, the mails were gone for good. But finding that they remain stored in some hidden place and can be easily accessed is very annoying! In fact, finding that other users can quickly change the settings back and have free access to my email is rather disturbing anyway, especially as there is no way to password protect my email account once i activate the mail app. the apple mail app is linked to my yahoo account, but within yahoo mail there seems to be no problem in regards to deleted mail being stored somewhere else, only within the apple app system.
So i guess id like to know, is there some way to password protect my account or do I just need to keep deleting my account before lending the ipad to someone else and then reinstating it? And is there any way to properly delete emails for good?
I would be happy just to go without the mail app and log in directly through yahoo in Safari, except that I find the notification alert when I receive a new mail very handy!![edit] I dragged the email I sent through the MBP Mail app (under MAILBOXES > Sent > Yahoo!) to the highlighted Sent folder (YAHOO! > Sent), and now it shows up on all Yahoo Sent folders (iPad app, web browser, phone app). Not entirely solved the issue but will use web browser to sent future emails to keep everything in sync.

My entire song list duplicated for some reason. Do I have to delete songs individually (take forever), or is there a way to do it all at once?
I had the same problem. Had at least 3 of each song in my library... Here's how I fixed it.
Go on iTunes to your library
Hit Shift and click on View
Scroll down to "show exact duplicate items"
the list will give you all your duplicated songs
Click at the top of the "date added" Column to sort by date added.
Even if it all happened the same day it will group your whole library by date and time added.
The time is the key...
You can start at the begining of you list and scroll to the last song that was added that day and time frame.
Everything after your last song is duplicates.
Highlight the first song hold down shift and scroll down to the last song...
Once they are all highlighted you can hit delete and send them all to the recycle bin.
It took me a while to figure it out but it works -

I have thousands of email messages in my ipad mailbox that I can't delete en masse. I can delete a few at a time, but this would take forever???
Contact htem? No, I wouldn't think so, I'm not familier with fuse.net. Most ISPs adn email providers have web pages that can be used to acces your account settings and email. That may provide a means of selecting multiple emails and deleting them (but probably not 22,000 at a time).

How to permanently delete email in mail app?
Hi! I am using a 2011 macbook pro and it has been running extremely slow lately. When I started looking into things, it seems that my mail app is saving every email I have ever received, even though I have spent hours deleting them. It seems that they are not being permanently deleted.. I always highlight the message (or several) in the mail app and then click the trashcan. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!
Which os are you using?

Permanently deleting your deleted items to allow for sent mail
Does anyone know of a way to permanently delete your deleted items folder to clear space on your Exchange Server so that you can send more mail? My server caps me at a mailbox of 100Mb. If I go over that, I must empty my deleted items folder to send more mail. Blackberry has this built in...has anyone found this on the iPhone?
YM NYC,
There is not a "Delete all" option but a couple of things you can do.
As I understand it you want to remove the content from the deleted items, is that correct?
Settings -> Mail -> email account -> Advancted -> Deleted Messages -> Remove and the choices are never, after 1 day, after 1 week or after 1 month.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.
