Why when I send an email does it appear in "sent" and "drafts" mailboxes?

Often when I send an email a copy appears in both the sent and drafts mailboxes. Why does this happen, and can I stop it appearing in drafts?

If this is an IMAP account, try going to Mail/Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors and uncheck Store drafts on server.

    When I send an email, a photo appears after my name in the sender line. How do I get rid of it?

    I don't have a signature set up, but did a little research.  Someone posted that these will show up when I send an email to myself, but will not show up when sent to another person.  I sent a test email to a friend to check for sure.

  • Why when I resize an image does it looks less sharp and poor quality?

    I've been using Photoshop since CS3 and have never had thus problem before. I used to create websites using WordPress for clients and have created many different logo images without any issues. Now however I'm doing it for muself and I'm having problems when I resize the images for web use.
    Here are a few examples. The first is a 1400x1400 image that I'm going to use for a podcast. iTunes requires this size and it looks good to my eye. When you look at the resized image however you'll see that it is not quite as sharp.

    I've tried all different things to get it to look good at any size but no mater what when the image gets resized (especially by a CMS or Twitter) it looks like crap. I've tried saving as png, jpeg, flatteing before resizing, resizing the psd, saving as jpeg then resizing, using save for web option but no matter what it doesn't look right.
    What am I doing wrong?

    When you scale down, you will lose some of the sharpness because it is removing pixels from the image, and Photoshop is trying to figure out how to remove pixels, and reassemble the edges of the image.. As a result, when some of that shading is removed, it begins to blur. Make sure when scaling down an image (image - image size) that you set the resampling to bicubic sharper. This will help to reduce the blur from the pixel removal.
    Also, you can go to filter - sharpen - unsharp mask - and work on bringing back some of the sharpness there as well.
    For your twitter logo - I would make a separate logo for it, because the text is difficult to read over it. Sorry - just my opinion there.
    You may have tried these things already - but if not - hopefully it helps
    On the other note - I think you might be hyper-critical of the changes...

  • When I send an email in Thunderbird it looks fine, but when the recipient tries to print it, the font is unreadablly small. Is there a setting I need to fix?

    I have Thunderbird version 24.3.0 downloaded to my Windows 7 computer.
    When I send an email in Thunderbird it looks fine and when the recipient receives it, it looks fine on the screen, but when she tries to print it, the font is unreadably small. This happens on every email I send her, but not other people's emails she receives. It has happened on some of the emails I receive back from her that contain the information I sent her.
    Is there a setting I need to fix or something I can do on my end to address this so this doesn't happen. She is receiving email through AOL online. I believe she is viewing it through either IE or Chrome.

    I recently tried sending myself an email through Thunderbird to another email account to see if that was the case, but the email came in with a font so tiny that it was unreadable. I had chosen a font type and size (arial 10) and just coming into my outlook inbox was virtually unreadable.
    And referring to the person I work with, she doesn't have problems getting anyone else's emails, just ones I send from Thunderbird.

    Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name.  Make sure the settings there are correct.

  • Why when I send a picture from my I phone to my email address does it only go to my iPad?

    Why when I send a picture from my iPhone to my email address does it only go to my iPad and not my home computer?

    Are you using the "Mail" app and not the "iMessage" application?
    iMessage as sberman stated is a mac only application. Mail however will send an email and not just a message. Your iPad may have your email attached as your iMessage name, so be careful that you don't get the two applications confused because one is universal and one is not.
    Hope this helps!

  • Does anyone know why when I send an emotiocom the recipient doesn't receive it?

    Does anyone know why when I send an emoticom the recipient doesn't receive it?

    BDAqua
    Thanx.
    I'm not sure if the recipient is using plain text or not and I don't think they could tell me if they were.  I only know they're using an older PC . . .  I'm sending in Rich text. 
    I've been sending them by goin' to Edit>Special Characters>selecting the emoticon from the list and inserting where I've clicked in the message which works when I send a message to myself.  
    I thought the other end might be getting them as attachments, but I don't know for sure. I've been goin' through my manual to find some sort of reference to that issue, but came up with nuthin'.  I imagine I could try to send a plain text email to see what happens.   

  • Y does gmail send many copies of a recent email to the trash folder when i send an email?

    y do i get a lot of copies in my trash folder when i send an email?  the longer the email the more copies in progression i have in the trash.

    Hi. shldr2thewheeel...  I so appreciate the time you have taken to reply to my pleas for help.  I think that I need to clarify my problem.  But would you reread my previous message in the mean time...I may not be using the correct terminolgy for what I am trying to find out. AndI am sorry for that.  This stuff is very confusing for me but I am trying.
    I do not have any thing in the trash. I don't even know if I have a trash folder.
    #1.I wanted to know if I could have somehow deleted the trash folder ? in my email site?
    #2 If it is possible than would this be why I cannot get the messages in inbox to delete to the trash folder?
    #3 When I try to delete anything on this computer I get the message on my screen..++++ telling me that whatever it is that I am trying to delete could not be moved to that mailbox because  "Deleted messages -mail.comcast.net does not allow messages to moved to it+++++    Doesn't make sense to me and that is why I wanted to know if it was possible that I may have deleted the trash folder under the INBOX , SENT, DRAFTS, and then where the TRASH folder is suppose to be?
    #4 Everytime I try to delete anything this message box shows up that tells me what is written in #3 between the +++++  ++++++
    It is like there is no trash folder to delete anything to.  It this possible that there is not a trash folder because I could have deleted the Trash folder??
    Thank you so much for time and your help.... 
    Barb.

    My icloud email address is included in a friend's address group set up in Gmail.  When they send an email to the group, the email never gets through to my icloud address - why?

    They've always been able to send to me individually - just not when my email is part of a group or even when it's just included with several other addresses added one at a time.
