Where are my forwarded emails?

I used Entourage for many years before switching to Mail.
In Entourage, when you forward an email, you could always find it in the sent folder.
This does not seem to be true in Mail.
When I go to the folder that the email is located in...
I DO see a "forwarded arrow" next to the email in question
but when I click on that arrow, I get a message that reads...
Mail is unable to locate a response to this item. You may have deleted it.
But when I go check on my wife's computer...
It shows that I successfully forwarded it.
So...where can I look to see the copy that I forwarded?
Thanks!

Sent Box Behaviors set to Never delete sent items since I started. There are roughly 12,000 emails in there ....
So - makes me wonder, what is the indexing capability of Mail and/or Spotlight? (I do not know the answer to that one.)
Spotlight does find email messages by title or content. Why not try looking for those replies using Spotlight to search on the message Subject? Just a thought.
Are you configured to keep messages locally for off-line viewing and saved on the server? Spotlight is only searching the local mailboxes. I do not know if Mail looks both in Server bases mailboxes and local. Something for you to test and learn.
Some of web based email servers have their own maintenance and deleted schedules. My Gmail tells me to set all the local settings to "never", etc. and then the Gmail servers delete and clean up on their own schedules ignoring the settings in Apple Mail.
I am sorry I don't have a better understanding of your specific situation, but if you can use other tools (Finder -> Find and Spotlight) to locate the message replies, that might put you on a path to figuring out why Apple Mail cannot locate the messages.
You can post a new thread: "What is the maximum number of local messages that Apple Mail can index properly?" To me, 12,000 seems like a lot; but then I wrote my first data bases on 1 MB external floppy drives so I may have a warped sense of limits for current systems.

  • Archiving was turned on, but no folder was ever set. Where are the archived emails?

    Finally convinced the wife to stop using webmail, and to begin using Thunderbird. I setup the pop3 account downloading all of the folders one by one, recreating the large folder structure.
    Somehow, archiving was turned on. No folder was ever created for the messages to go to. Thunderbird states that the messages are going to the profile named "Personal". There is no "Archive" folder inside Personal.
    Everything older than 60 days is now missing. These are emails going back 2001! Where did they get moved to?

    I am thinking about Archiving as the same thing as an Outlook Archive, meaning - a completely separate set of folders mirroring what is on the server. That isn't the case, is it?
    And <major expletive>, you were right. The "Delete all mail older than 60 days" was set. In my wildest imagination, I cannot imagine ever setting that. I would not willingly delete my wife's message store of 14 years.
    <Another major expletive>! Glad I air conditioned the dog house in June. Gotta start thinking about getting a heater. She may let him in, but this is gonna be home for a while.

  • Where are my archived email and address book?

    For other reasons (couldn't open web pages) I did a MS Recovery where it claimed my personal data would be spared. Some aps would need to be reloaded but the data should remain.
    I have been using Mozilla for a few years (great program, BTW) and had created an address book and had folders of received email that I had archived according to family member.
    Since the recovery step completed I have re-installed Mozilla. It is working and has pulled new email from my EarthLink account. I'd like to now re-install the address book and my archived email folders assuming they are truly still around.

    Windows will not preserve the following during a refresh:
    Desktop applications that are not included with Windows. These are typically applications that you downloaded from the Internet or installed from a disk. This includes any anti-virus programs, games, or other applications you may have installed. To make it easier to reinstall your applications, a file will be created on your desktop listing the applications that were removed.
    I doubt the Thunderbird profile has been preserved, otherwise Thunderbird would have picked it up after being re-installed.
    Be more careful the next time, and make sure to create a backup of your profile on a regular basis.

  • Where are the forward/back, refresh,etc- f11 didn't help nor did dragging from the left of the 'y' as suggested---help?om

    Do not have the page forward/back arrows, refresh icon, etc in my toolbar. Saw where this has happened on your page & recommendation was to 'drag' from the left of vertical bar next to the 'Y' in Yahoo- didn't work. Also said to hit the F11 key for Firefox users- didn't work.

    Do you have the orange Firefox button, which is an abbreviated menu?
    If you have no menus ''and'' no toolbars, check that you're not in full screen mode. Use the F11 key to switch between full screen and normal modes.
    To reset your menus and toolbars, you can use Firefox's Safe Mode.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, close Firefox, hold the Shift key on the keyboard, and restart. You should get a dialog with various reset options. The only one to check is toolbars. More info: [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode].
    Does that help?

  • OMG Where are all my email folders?

    All the email folders I created (about 12) to organize mail from clients and personal contacts are gone ... tell me I haven't lost the messages as well!
    I tried to pull them out of TimeMachine from before I did the upgrade to 10.8 and I can't - previous backups are "pinked" out.
    Seems like other may be having simular problems. Hope this is easily resolvable :/
    Also - seems like I can't "Quit" email - need to force quit!

  • Thunderbird starts up with empty inbox - where are all my emails?

    I started Thunderbird as usual today. New mail loaded, but all old emails in my Inbox were gone. Can I get them back? How do I stop this happening again?

    Hi dscarb and Airmail,
    In my case, when I opened up Thunderbird like normal it was just all empty, there were no emails or account settings, all it had was the basic program settings that I have set and my address book was still there. I had two email accounts coming into Thunderbird, have been using it for years and this has never happened. I know that all my emails are still in gmail webmail and my isp webmail, I had my accounts set as IMAP, so I know they're not lost, however for the copies to all have disappeared from Thunderbird and even my account folders is very strange. And I'm most nervous that I may have lost all my coloured tags for my emails for the last 10 years! Still waiting for an answer to my own question that I posted separately from this, haven't heard anything yet but really want some advice from someone who might know how to retrieve everything as it was before.

  • Where are my old email aliases for Mobile Me stored in iCloud?

    I need to see what alias email addresses iCloud is using. How can I do that?

    Thanks for your reply. I do not see my email address for my website janetiversen.com
    When I try to add it to Mail, it says my certificate is not verified. (I thought I had added it as an alias in MobileMe before it closed.)
    Any suggestions as to how to get it into Mail?
    My web host is A2. And my email address is set up through them.
    I simply want to access it from Mail.

  • Where are the forward/back buttons?

    There is no (three dot) menu button in the top right beside the tab; the hardware button menu (bottom left button) shows only a forward button.

    The Galaxy S3 has a hardware menu button. That will have the menu items including forward. It does not have a 3 dot button.

  • Where are my deleted emails?

    i just switched to Mail and i'm having some issues with deleted messages.
    i have an IMAP account set up, but my deleted messages are just gone, even though i have "move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox" and "Store deleted messages on the server" checked.
    i originally had a trashcan icon in the left pane, as well as a "deleted items" folder.
    a few old deleted messages showed up in the "deleted items" folder, but freshly deleted items were nowhere to be found.
    thinking I just needed a fresh start, i deleted local mail files and the mail plist file, and recreated the account.
    the trashcan and deleted messages no longer show up.
    what do i have to do to get my deleted messages back?

    that doesn't work.
    my (local) Trashcan doesn't even show up in the left column and the "Trash" mailbox on my IMAP server is empty.

    Recently switched over from Comcast to Verizon and used True Switch to import old emails to new verizon account.  Email indicates everything was imported however only contacts show available.  Where are the imported emails.  Can't find them in inbox. Please help!

    they should have created a folder in your webmail inbox.  
    so you sign in at http://webmail.verizon.net
    you will have inbox, sent trash etc..
    there should be another folder there.

    Hello Ramki
    DECISION_NOTE is a new element created in the standard decision task as of new releases (Note 1643764)
    Once the user fills in the comments, they are saved as SOFM Objectsin DECISION_NOTE (this too is multiline element). All we have to do is bind it back to the workflow container in _ATTACH_OBJECTS.
    Hi Ronen
    Thanks for the suggestion.....I was thinking on the same lines too....if at all we have to change the approach, I need to keep it least disruptive .
    Hi Rick
    Will test the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 ...let me check if I can redefine SENDTASKDESCRIPTION in a delegated subtype of SELFITEM and use this API ....(if at all I can)....
    For the wait step part.... the attachment is added to the mail step via the binding from the workflow...._ATTACH_OBJECTS from Workflow to _ATTACH_OBJECTS of the email task...not sure where you want me to set a wait step. Request you to please elaborate a bit more.
    Thank you all for your kind inputs!
    Will be back with my today's trials...
