Why can't I delete my email messages?

All of a sudden yesterday I could no long make any changes to my emails. I couldn't delete them or forward them, or reply to them. Why??? I use this every day.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let us know and we can move this thread to the Thunderbird queue. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

  • On an iMac why can't you delete an email without opening it?

    Why can't I delete an email without opening it first? Is this not a security risk as I have always been advised that, if I don't know who the email is from, I should delete it so as to avoid opening any suspect attachments that open immediately.
    This is my first Mac so could it be that I have not realised how to do this?
    My wife can do this on her iPad.

    A couple of points:
    1. Your concern is not really an issue with macs. More of a PC thing. "Suspect attachments" are extremely, extremely rare for a mac. I mean, like one since 1984, when I bought my first mac. The reason is that Apple seems to be on top of things and keeps updating mac software to protect your mac from this sort of thing. Just keep up with the system updates and you won't have a problem. Microsoft, on the other hand, makes tons of security holes in their software because of their mindset, i.e., that the consumer is a moron and the enemy.
    2. In my mail.app, there are three columns in the message viewer, the first which lists the mailboxes, the second which lists the emails, and the third which is a preview window. I can select an email in the second column and delete it without opening it, so I don't see what the problem is that you're having.

  • Why can I not delete any emails on iPhone. 5?

    Why can I not delete any emails on my iphone5?

    Thx. That seems to have solved my problem. I don't know but just all of a sudden when I opened an emal there was no option at the bottom.  After doing as you suggested, now all the options are back. Quite confusing to me. I do appreciate your suggestion and fix.

  • Why can't I delete all incoming messages at once without having to select each one first. It can be done while in the "Trash" folder, but not the "IN" folder.

    Why can't I delete all incoming messages at once without having to select each one first. It can be done while in the "Trash" folder, but not the "IN" folder.

    Well, what I see happing is this: Tapping edit and checking the first message brings up the “Delete” option. Holding it until the red message “Delete Message” appears, then letting go of the red button and tapping the checked button makes the “Delete Message” message go away. The checked message is still checked with an option to delete just that message. Tap the checked message again just cancels the whole process and I’m back to square one.
    However, if I check a message that is part of a thread of messages and tap Delete, I have the option of deleting all messages in the thread.
    Perhaps the fact that I’m using the 3rd generation of the iPad is the problem, but your suggestion isn’t working.

  • Why can't I delete some emails that have no content?

    I have some emails that when I try to delete them the email app closes I cannot even select the email without the app closeing

    Did you try swiping the emails from the list view? You don't have to open the emails - just swipe on the message in the list from left to right and a red delete button pops up.
    Try resetting the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 101-5 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if that helps.
    You can try closing mail as well. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close mail by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the mail app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close it. Restart the iPad - by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. See if you can delete the emails now.

  • Why can't I get my email messages when i'm away from home?

    My Blackberry gets emails when i'm at home via our wireless network, but when I'm away from home, I don't get any email messages or text messages at all.  We have both the home WiFi wireless network "on" and the Mobile Network is on.  What should I do so I can get emails when I'm away from home?

    Without a Blackberry Data Plan you can't get email pushed to your Curve.  While on your wi-fi network you are able to access your email, but away from that link you need a data plan.

  • Why can't I delete my emails?

    Once I delete an email, it automatically reappears. How do I stop this?

    I'm having this problem too -- I want to clear out my inbox of more than 20,000 messages but whenever I try to delete a big batch, they reappear. 
    I'm having this problem with a POP account and I just created an IMAP account to see if this might be the issue. 

  • Why can't I delete wrong email in iphone 5

    I am trying to text someone who I only have a phone # for. In contacts I press 'send message' it opens a new iMessage with an email of somebody totally unrelated and even after deleteing that contact it still returns. There seems to be no way for me to message the correct person.
    I have iphone 5, an exchange account, gmail account and icloud account connected.

    Go to
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    Select Manage your Apple ID
    Sign in
    Under Apple ID and Primary Email address go to edit
    Set a new email address or add a secondary one
    hope that helped

  • Why can't I print "printable" email messages with Firefox, that I can print with Internet Explorer?

    My ISP is Optimum Online, which is where I receive email. My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional Ed. My printer is Brother HL 1440.

    It is possible that you accidentally clicked the 'Block Images' item in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (''Site Identification'' icon) on the left side of the location bar and click the "More Information" button.
    This will open the Security tab of the ''Page Info'' window (also accessible via Tools > Page Info).
    Go to the ''Media'' tab of that Page Info window.
    Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow.
    If an image is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box ''Block Images from...'' then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

    Why can't I reply to emails on my iPhone 5 - this is a recent problem, I have been able to reply and delete email messages previously.

    A bit more information would be needed to understand what's going on?
    What happens when you try to reply... Do you get an error message, is there no send button, does a symbol appear?

  • HT1430 I can't delete 2 email messages. All others delete properly, however 2 will not delete no matter what I try. A pop up message comes up and says "cannot not delete"

    I can't delete 2 email messages that I received on the same day from one of my email accts. I have **** down the device and reset the device with no resolution to the problem. I can forward these two messages to our other acct and it will delete from there but returns to my personal email again, repeatedly. All other messages that I have deleted from my acct delete properly. I get a pop up indicating that " the message cannot be deleted". How do I fix this?

    Delete the mail account and setup again.
