Unread emails in folder

My mail icon shows I have 350 unread emails. However after opening there are none in any of the folders.   Setting shows to remove when deleted.

Do you have this add-on?

  • Why does a Local Folder folder keeping bolding as if it has an unread email?

    I've set up a folder "Canards" under my Local Folders. About two weeks ago, it started going bold as if it has an unread email in it. There is no number to the right, so it knows there is no unread email in it. How do I get Thunderbird to quit bolding the name of this folder?

    After disabling all plug-ins and powered off, I restarted my computer and Thunderbird in safemode. The problem went away, but after an hour, it came back. This is with all plug-ins disabled!
    Then I went to my Inbox and noticed that only emails up to 6/23 were there. Somehow I had lost incoming emails, and possibly others, for 4 days. I decided to do some playing but quickly recovered all those emails by clicking on Get Mail. The previously read lost emails came back Unread, and the Canard folder, which was already bold, got a number in parentheses after it, indicating unread emails. I went through 129 bolded (supposedly unread) emails, verifying I had already read many of them. I finally got to some that had recently been sent and were unread by me. As soon as I read them, the Canard folder name unbolded and I haven't had a problem since then.
    I haven't added in the rest of the plug ins yet because I'm still testing this phenomenon for reliability. The problem has gone away, but I'm still testing it, especially with Lightning back. I'll get back as soon as I either detect the problem or it's solved.
    Thanks for your help, Matt!

  • Unread email folder doesn't exist on iPhone mail application?

    Hi everyone,
    I just recently switched over to an iPhone 4 after 6 years with a Blackberry. I have many apple products and was finally able to switch at work. Everything is great except that the way you have to find unread email is very cumbersome. On the BB, all unread mail appeared in the default mail view. On the iPhone, I have to go into the folder view to find emails that I have ruled into other folders on my Microsoft Exchange account which is very cumbersome.
    Also, I hear a new email alert but the mail icon doesn't update the unread mail count unless that email comes to my inbox folder. Since I work in IT at my organization and receive many emails, I have them ruled on exchange to many different folders. I have all of those folders pushed to the iPhone but I have to manually look in each folder for the unread mail count next to the folder.
    So I guess I'm saying that this is not efficient enough mail for me. Can you do setup an unread mail folder that shows all unread mail regardless of what folder it really is in on the iPhone mail program somehow? If not, can this be submitted as an enhancement as it makes email use very cumbersome. I have found tons of posts about this through google searches. I thought I would make a post to see if we are all missing something simple. If there is a simple setup that I can configure to fix this, please let me know!
    Thanks,
    Unhappy mail user

  • 1800 unread emails but an empty  folder

    my iPhone 5s running ios8 shows 1800 unread emails but when I look in the unread email are there are no emails. How do I empty the unread folder

    Either they're somehow hidden or as I've mentioned they may be in another folder, if the account has webmail access then you could log on & see if they're listed under an 'all mail' folder or another.
    You could also try recreating the account using imap & see if that shows the unread messages, as if you're using the same account on two or more devices with pop then it might not be deleting them correctly so when you access the account on another device it shows them as unread even though they've been read &/or deleted.

  • I have an iPhone 4 using iOS 7.1.2. On my home screen at the email icon it shows I have over 11,000 unread emails. I have no emails and am not receiving any. Ipad shows I am receiving emails ok. Om my phone deleted folder is empty as well as Sent.

    I have an iPhone 4 using iOS 7.1.2. On my home screen at the email icon in red it shows I have 11,193 emails to be read.  I have no mail in Inbox, Drafts, Sent, or Trash. Where did this come from and how do I get rid of it. The number is printed in read on top of the blue and white emaiI icon. I contacted my cable company and through their website I can check my email. In doing this it showed I had 25 unread emails. Also, my iPad 2 is receiving emails fine.  So the problem is with the iPhone 4. What can I do to get rid of the number and make my mail operational? 

    Hello Kizzyk,
    I would start with taking a look at the settings to make sure that you are able to send and receive messages. If everything looks good then the next step would be to remove the accounts and add them back in. Take a look at the article below for more information and details on how to troubleshoot your issue further.

  • IPad unread email count doesn't tally with Microsoft Exchange 2007 email count from OWA.

    I discovered that when we first setup the iPad to sync email from Microsoft Exchange 2007 server via ActiveSync, the total number of unread email count tally with the count from OWA. After a few days, the unread email count will be out of sync. The settings for iPad "Mail days to syn": No limit. Mail to show: 1000. iPad iOS: 5.1.1
    We performed the following:
    1.     Compare email by email to verify which are the read email from OWA doesn't sync to iPad. We discovered that some emails read from OWA doesn't sync with iPad even performed forced update. However, if we delete that read email from OWA, it will delete (unread) from iPad immediately after sync.
    2.     Email recall message for successful recalled displayed in OWA but not on iPad.
    3.     Calendar invite message forward as email displayed in OWA but not in iPad.
    Is there a bug for Microsoft Exchange 2007 or there is limitation for iPad?
    Any kind expert can advice?
    Thanks.

  • Unread Emails in Outlook 2010 Clients shows both UNREAD AND READ emails when connected to Exchange 2013 Server SP1

    We recently upgraded to Exchange 2013 SP1 with a client user-base of Office 2010 Professional Plus / Outlook 2010 SP3.
    All Unread Email favorites folders show both Unread and Read emails, just like the inbox. Removal of the folder and recreating yields the same results, as does creating a custom folder. However, in Outlook 2013 there is no problem. 
    Is there a patch or hot fix for this issue? Or does anyone know how to fix this issue so that the UNREAD EMAILS SHOW UP IN THE UNREAD FOLDER AND NOT INCLUDE THE READ EMAILS? 
    Thank you!

  • Unread emails self marking as read...

    Hi,
    I had all my unread email this morning in one of my IMAP accounts showing up as read before I had clicked on them.
    I also have new notes randomly opening then showing up as an unread email/note with a blue dot at the left.
    Any ideas? TIA

    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
    Note: /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index does not exist in 10.5 & up.
    If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...

  • My email ico shows a red 15 but I have no unread emails. How can I get rid ot that 15 it is driving me nuts

    My email icon shows a red 15 BUT I have NO unread messages. Can you tell me how to get rid ot the 15. It is driving me NUTS
    Thanks

    If that doesn't work, and you by chance have at least one gmail account, you might actually have unread emails in a folder other than the Inbox.

  • Unread Emails

    Hello Everyone,
    How can i get to extract a list of users who have not read a certain email and in general extract a list of accounts that have unread emails from exchange online.
    Could there be an easier way of managing communication to users? i.e have each user confirm they have read and understood the communication then generate some sort of report that will show the users that have confirmed and those that have not.
    Thanks in advance for your support.
    Meshack

    Not an easy task, as many things might have happened with the message. In general, you can use the Search-Mailbox/New-MailboxSearch cmdlets with the LogLevel parameter set to Full in order to check for the read status of a message, check for example
    here:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/c0039594-7c7b-4716-947e-f9828c041466/tracking-target-folder?forum=exchangesvradmin#a8afa62c-cfd9-47bd-b558-ea5fee221a39
    Best to use read receipts or voting buttons to track on this. Both are obviously not a perfect solution, but neither is the search method.

  • Mail Icon Unread email Count

    I just got the iphone 4s.  (i had the 3gs and had to go to droid due to family plan on sprint.)  Anyhow i am back on iphone and i was hoping someone can remind me how to remove the unread email number count on the Mail icon.  I believe there was a setting etc which allowed me to remove this.  You input is appreciated.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Groupwise client is reporting 1 unread email when all are read

    Hi Folks,
    I have a rather strange problem that I'm hoping to find a solution to. I
    have one user who's client is reporting that there is an unread email in
    her inbox when all have been read. In fact, she has either deleted or
    moved all mail out of her inbox to either a cabinet directory or an
    archive. I had her log in at another workstation and the issue followed
    her. I have run both an analyze/fix with all the options checked, and a
    structural rebuild on her user database, and found no problems.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Do an "Advanced Find" with filter options "Item Status" "does not include"
    "Read".
    Now you should see any unread Item. If it's only one Item, it must be this
    one you see in the Home View. Just delete it or move it to another Folder.

  • HoHow do I empty the mail "sent" box of "unread" emails -  when it's already empty?

    My email account (apple mail) says I have 230 unread emails in my sent folder.  That folder was emptied by me just now.  I don't see any messages to either open or to delete.  What do I do to get rid of this message?

    I Meant to write - as part of my question - that I'm using an apple mini-pad.  Not a MacBook pro or other as stated above. 

  • Is there a workaround to an ISP's unread email retention policy?

    My ISP (Cox) has a policy where any unread email in the inbox is deleted after 60 days.  This doesn't make a lot of sense to me since they will indefinitely retain any "read" email or any unread email transferred to a folder outside of the inbox.
    This wasn't a problem when I was using POP to access my email since all messages were downloaded to my computer and it didn't matter if the email was eventually removed from the server.  I would like to switch over to IMAP access now that Cox is offering it as an option.  Since an IMAP account essentially reflects what is on the server, automatic deletion of messages by the ISP is now a problem.
    The only way I can avoid these deletions is to mark the message as read before it reaches the 60 day threshold, or move it from the inbox.  There doesn't seem to be a automatic way to have Mail do this.  I can create a rule, but I would need to manually apply the rule on a daily basis since rules automatically run only on new messages.  I suspect there is a way to do this using Applescript, but I am not experienced using it. 
    Keeping Unread messages has some importance to me.  The Preview pane in Mail often gives me enough info to understand the response in a message without reading it.  I also do web development work where I need to monitor system generated emails and it is useful to have access to historical emails to debug email issues - I shouldn't have to read each one in order to make sure it isn't deleted.
    This is really an ISP issue and not a Mail issue, although it would be great if the Mail Rules feature could be applied to previously received emails automatically.  If any of you out there have figured out a way to work around this kind of issue, it would like to hear about t.

    I am trying to avoid having to perform a daily manual process (I monitor about a dozen email accounts - not all of them from ISP's with the 60 day deletion window).  The ISP's 60 day deletion window is rolling - each day different existing messages are about to reach the threshold.  I don't want to mark messages as Read for all messages, just those that are about to be 60 days old.  I know that I can do this by creating a smart mailbox that only has messages that are 59 days old, select all of the smart mailbox messages and then right-click and "Mark as Read", but this would have to be a daily, manual process.
