Yahoo IMAP-IDLE totally unreliable

Hi there,
my iPhone won't notice new mails waiting on the Yahoo-server. I will have to update manually to have the phone look. Even the automatic mail check every 30 mins won't work.
But sometimes, by accident, it works and shows new mail within a minute!
My prefs: "Use Push-Mail: ACTIVE"
"Autom. mail check: every 30 mins"
What's wrong?

mny, Yahoo! Mail's "push" email delays as well as sent email sometimes not being sent are known issues at Apple, please submit feedback to Apple on this bug, as well as call AppleCare to have them create a trouble ticket. The more people that report this, the faster we will all have a fix.
Done.
Thx!

Are BT Yahoo IMAP servers seriously unreliable????...

Please help, this is driving me mad!
I have numerous machines, connected via BT Infinity using the imap.mail.yahoo.com server to get messages and sync a few folders and messages (not many - low volumes of mail in general). They are set to SSL port 993, and outgoing is smtp.mail.yahoo.com SSL port 465, with authentication. My frequency of checking mail is 5 mins.
And I get so many connection errors and timouts, I just can't belive it!! (I also have the server timeout error delay set to the maximum too) - my gmail imap works fine, but I keep getting connection time outs it is driving me insane - one minute I get the error, the next it just works.
An example of an error is - Your Imap command could not be sent to the server, due to non-network errors. This could be for example indicate a lick of memory in your system - Live Mail Error ID - 0x800CCC0E.
This error gives me NO clue as to what it is.
I am using Windows Live Mail 2012, and other clients including Outlook 2007, and the same thing keeps happening on my HTC One X andriod via the standard email client - when out and about using the TMOBILE cellular 3 g network.
I have a mixed environment, Windows 7, 8 and Mac OS too - everything is uptodate and clean.
After all the embarrassing incident of half a million hacked email acconts, I have just about lost faith in BT to subcontract out their email to Yahoo - who simply are not delivering on reliability, security - and the support you get from BT on the phone STINKS ! - because they do not know much about an email system that is not theirs afterall. What a joke!!!!
Please please can someone suggest another set of setting that work - or just confirm, that I should be chucking in the towel and just redirect all my stuff to a different provider.
Thanks, that's my rant over with - I feel better now already!
Regards,
Richard.

The Yahoo mail system has been flaky for ages. Sometimes it gets better and sometimes it gets worse. Apparently the problem is that their mail servers keep going wrong. If you are lucky, you get through to a good one, if you're unlucky, you're connected to a bad one.
However, BT are migrating across to a new provider ... http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44789/?s_cid=con_FURL_email_newemail

Open letter to Nokia Messaging dev team: imap idle...

Hi,
I would like to ask the developers of Nokia Messaging if they are aware of the fact themailclient in the E72 isn't supporting Imap IDLE anymore.
Before, in the E71 for example, there was indeed a timesetting in the native client BUT this was used when the client got disconnected. for example:client connected > phonecall arrives, client disconnects > phonecall ends > client connects after 5 minutes (or any other timespan accoridng to the settings) and STAYS connected.
Nokia Messaging: if you set it up at 5 minutes it checks every 5 minutes for mail. This is NOT 'idling' on a server. 'Idle' means in this case 'stay connected, just sit there and wait for messages')
the specs on your site CLEARLY state for the E72:
Supported protocols: IMAP4 (with idle), Nokia Messaging, Microsoft ActiveSync, POP3, SMTP
This means that the product that i have bought IS NOT DOING what you promise. I could probably solve with start using Nokia Messaging but this and was never my intention. I just the phone to do what it is supposed to do: imap idle without the use of Nokia Messaging as stated in its specs (as it was before by the way).
WOULD APPRECIATE AN ANSWER!
Called Nokia support in Belgium. No answer from them.

We are far from being Nokia enemies. If anything, we are giving them free feedback. In corporate circles, concerned companies pay millions of bucks to the likes of Pricewaterhouse, etc to do strategic consulting, ie to tell them what really is right or wrong with their company, products, etc. In the new millenium, the internet and tools such as forums provide similar service, only at a fraction of the cost and a damningly honest one too!
My take on the matter is this: sure Nokia staff are reading these forums and laughing at us 'idiots'. The 'noise-makers' are few and far between. Nokia also has their die-hard fans (some people have never used any of the advanced features on their phones so would know little) as well as their own 'plants' (ppl who are Nokia employees tasked with dropping feel-good stories in various threads. I've done enough corporate consulting to know this ;-)
The same person who was supporting Nokia in this thread also had an extended argument with me in the afore-mentioned thread. Some people think someone having 300 odd contacts is a power-user (I have in excess of 1,300 contacts, 90% current and active). Some people questioned my desired to be able to snooze an alarm for a user defined period (that Nokia lover accused me for wanting "more bells & whistles than Fort Knox").
The last example is something simple that can implemented. My Palm circa 2003 had that feature. Say if an alarm sounds for a set event, but you are still in a meeting/busy, wouldn't it be gud to be able to snooze the alarm for a specified period, say 40 mins? At the moment, the E72 only lets you set ONE global snooze period which applies for all alarms.
The way I see it Nokia with its so-called business series of devices have 2 probs - (1) it has many bugs and high-end features that do no work as promoted / advertised, and (2) it lacks many simple features that cheaper/older phones have. Can't be too difficult for those Finns to decipher this, can it??
And what would happen to Nokia? Well, I think its getting so big headed in recent times that its alienating a lot of serious / old-time fans. In todays market, there is great variety of choice. If one is to get buggy and ill-designed products anyway then why pay premium dollars for a Finnish lemon when you can settle for a similar lemon (and at times with almost enuff bells & whistles to challenge Fort Knox) from say China, at a fraction of the price. And to think that many of these Chinese clones today ship with dual SIM capability as well as a (fuzzy no doubt) TV monitor!
My advice to folks out there, please do buy a Nokia if you are in the market for a cheap, no-frills phone to be used as a spare phone or on those mountain camping trips when a gud flashlight is required. But if you are looking for a serious BIZNESS SMARTPHONE, the E72 is definately not it. Still love you, darling!
There ought to be laws out there on the use of the term 'smartphone'

Sent items on yahoo Imap not synchronising with sent items on yahoo mail outlook 2011

I had a problem where the my yahoo imap which I set up with Outlook 2011 was not synchronizing with Yahoo from the web.
I found the solution today by switching from Sent items( Server) to Sent( Server).
1. Go to tools
2. Accounts
3.Advance options
4. Folders
5. Then you will see sent. Drop down the window and you will see what I have shown in the screen shot below.
It worked for me and now all my emails are synchronising very well.

the last sentence should read...."this folder do however only have the sent emails that was sent from my imac, and not the emails that was sent from my ipad".
I want all my sent items on all my devices the same, in other words the should come from the server and not the specific device I'm using

Yahoo IMAP support ... sneaky!

I found several references to IMAP support by Yahoo about a year ago (imap.next.mail.yahoo.com, imap.mail.yahoo.com) that worked for a while and then stopped, presumably because of the resources required to support that protocol on top of pop. Then, with their offer of IMAP access to even free Yahoo acounts because of Apple, I read somewhere the new server was imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com. Problem is, it only works IF you use the Yahoo configuration option in Mail settings. If you use a regular IMAP configuration option, it does not work. (Why would I want to use Other? Because I dont want the @yahoo.com as the reply-to address).
So, it seems that behind the scenes, the iPhone is configuring to the correct (and unknown to us) Yahoo IMAP server OR it is embedding some sort of prefix/suffix to our IDs that authorize it to log on to the Yahoo IMAP server ONLY if you use the iPhone configuration tool. I am speculating. Any thoughts?

Someone who has an iPhone should connect it to a WiFi network on which is a computer running an Ethernet Packet sniffer, and then capture a connection from the iPhone to Yahoo mail.
For ordinary POP3 and SMTP access Yahoo use SSL versions, the IMAP SSL port is normally 993 but they could be using a non-standard port. They could also be doing something strange to the authentication, e.g. using MD5 instead of just password or something else like adding additional text to the password e.g. it sends apple.password instead of password, again a packet sniffer like Ethereal might reveal this.
Unfortunately the iPhone is not yet available in the UK so I cannot do this testing myself.
Google should wake up and add push IMAP support themselves, fancy letting Yahoo grab all the glory.

Problem with Yahoo IMAP and Mail...

I'm having an issue with my Yahoo IMAP setup and mail on my desktop:
I have set up my yahoo email account with IMAP on both my iphone 4 and with mail on macbook pro. It has worked fine, all my folders are synced up on both devices and everything runs well except for one small problem. When I read an email on my Iphone, the mail program on my macbook pro never knows. Every day I come back to my computer, and all of my yahoo emails remain as "new" and "unread" even though I had checked all of them on my iphone. Its very weird because the opposite is not true - in other words - if I check a Yahoo email on my macbook pro, then my Iphone recognizes it and will show it is "read" as soon as I read it on macbook pro.
I also have an IMAP work email hosted by gator and a gmail account and I do not have this problem, its only on my yahoo account. I have tried the following settings:
Incoming server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming server - apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing server - smtp.apple.mail.yahoo.com
I have set everything to ssl with ports 465 and 993. Still keep getting this same problem that my macbook pro does not recognize when emails have been read on my iphone (for only the yahoo account).
Anybody else having this problem or have any suggestions on how to fix??

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mobile/comms/mail/imap-01.html
To set up IMAP on your mobile device please use these settings:
Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL)
Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL/TLS)
Username: full email address (for example, [email protected] or [email protected])
Password: the password you login to Yahoo! with.
If you are having trouble setting up IMAP on your mobile device we recommend reviewing your phones instruction manual or contacting your mobile provider for support.
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78799
You can use the following information to configure IMAP with many mail clients. If you encounter difficulties, we suggest contacting your mail client's customer support department for further instructions -- we're unable to provide assistance with configuring mail clients not listed here.
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - requires SSL:     imap.gmail.com
Use SSL: Yes
Port: 993
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS:     smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
Use Authentication: Yes
Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
Port: 465 or 587
Account Name:     your full email address (including @gmail.com) Google Apps users, please enter username@your_domain.com
Email Address:     your full Gmail email address ([email protected]) Google Apps users, please enter username@your_domain.com
Password:     your Gmail password
Please note that if your client does not support SMTP3 authentication, you won't be able to send mail through your client using your Gmail address.
Also, if you're having trouble sending mail but you've confirmed that encryption is active for SMTP in your mail client, try to configure your SMTP server on a different port: 465 or 587.

SMTP offline when adding Yahoo IMAP settings in Mail. Ports are correct as is password. Suggestions as to the problem?

SMTP "offline" indicated under Mail/Preferences/Accounts for Yahoo IMAP, when adding Yahoo IMAP settings in Mail. Ports are correct as is password. Suggestions as to the problem? Latest OS with patches...
I can log into Yahoo via URL, so Mail should work as well.

Nope, no correlation between them (other than password)

How to configure Yahoo IMAP with ATT.Yahoo service

I'm hearing about using Yahoo IMAP push server, but can find no such option about configuring my current ATT.Yahoo service for anything but POP/SMTP. Where should I be looking? Thanks

I could find this info nowhere so hopefully this will help someone with the same problem I was having.
In case anyone with an ATT.YAHOO account formerly SBC, or Pacbell, etc. You have to manually set up an IMAP account. So if your e-mail address is "[email protected]", you would Add an account, choose Yahoo Y! Mail and enter your [email protected] address and your ATT.YAHOO POP password. It will confirm the account and you will now have IMAP Push e-mail on your ATT account. But your ATT.Yahoo account (as far as I can tell) must remain a standard POP account on OS X Mail on your Mac. So you don't want to synch your iPhone ATT.Yahoo Mail accounts.

Sun IMAP IDLE issue

Hello,
I am experiencing a weird behavior with IDLE. I will try to explain what is happening:
The problem is that some new mail notification events
(normally the first one after entering idle), remains somehow enqued
and it is not finally released after I quit idle session and open it
again. I know it sounds a little weird, so i will explain it with the
following example:
1) I enter idle mode in the inbox folder
+. idle+
idling
2) I send an email to the corresponding user. No notification is received.
3) I send a new mail to this user. I receive one notification.
+ 19 EXISTS+
+ 5 RECENT+
4) I send another mail to this user. I receive notifications normally. (but the first one remains lost)
+20 EXISTS+
+6 RECENT+
5) After waiting 15 minutes the first notification remains lost, so I quit IDLE session.
done
+. OK Completed+
6) I enter again idle mode and then i receive finally the lost new mail notification.
. idle
+21 EXISTS+
+7 RECENT+
idling
Sometimes i am having this problem with the second mail instead of the first one.
Is there anyone already aware of this? Is it a known bug?
Could it be a configuration problem? Should I try to configure IDLE
with ENS?
I am running on a RHL4 with Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server
7u2-7.02 32bit. I have IDLE capability configured with JMQ. I have
followed the following links:
http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite/Configuring+IMAP+IDLE#ConfiguringIMAPIDLE-NotificationServicesJMQorENS
http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite/Enabling+JMQ+Notification(Example)
Thanks in advance. I know this is a tricky issue.
Regards,
Alberto.

Can you tell me if this problem is reproducible with other versions of MS?I don't see this problem with earlier versions of Messaging Server e.g. Messaging Server 7u1 (provided with Communication Suite 6 update 1).
Also i would like to know if this bug exists with other Red Hat versions.( I found it on RHL4).I see no reason why the particular Redhat release would change the behaviour as it is the same Messaging Server build. The Solaris Messaging Server build on the other hand is different (e.g. different compiler amongst other things).
If you need this issue fixed I suggest you raise a support request (assuming you have a support contract).

Yahoo IMAP via Mail.app

Has anyone got this to work, I read on this forum that the yahoo imap server used by the iPhone is imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com, just wondered if anyone knew the port and if anyone had been able to get mail.app talking to the yahoo IMAP server. Would be great to have the mac and iPhone alking to the same IMAP server.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
Jonathan

There is an option in the 'Advanced' section of the account setup to delete the messages from the server after a specified period rather than immediately on download; you could leave them for a week or whatever, then they will still be there when the iPhone accesses them.

Yahoo imap mail

I have been successfully using Yahoo imap mail within Mac Mail for years, but now it won't work. What's changed? How can I use Yahoo mail in my mail program??

Hello Ahji,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your Yahoo! email is not working as expected in Mail on your Mac. To begin troubleshooting, I would suggest reading over and working through the suggested steps in the attached article.

Have a great day,

Lion Mail Yahoo IMAP Sync Inconsistent

Observed behavior: Mail is syncing with Yahoo IMAP every five minutes, but when I delete or mark messages as read from the Yahoo website, iPhone or any other device, the Mail app will not reflect these changes even after the auto or manul sync. In order to force Mail to sync accurately, I have to take the account offline and then switch it back online. Then, Mail syncs correctly.
If I force the re-sync WITHOUT first taking the account offline, the sync is not accurate. Even if new messages appear in the mailbox, the other deleted and marked-read messages are not accurately reflected in the sync. Again, the only way to make it accurate is to take offline and bring back online. Of course, if I restart Mail, this also resolves the issue. Restarting Mail is the same thing as far as the Yahoo IMAP server is concerned.
This problem is easily reproducible. I have tried a number of remedies.
1. I deleted the original Yahoo IMAP account and added a new Yahoo IMAP account with a new name multiple times. No change.
2. I restarted my Mac to see if this helps. Other than the temporary effect of restarting Mail, this does not change a thing.
3. I have looked on the Yahoo site, and well... Here I am.
4. I also looked on Gmail site, almost more helpful.
5. Finally, I looked on the Apple Support Communities but cannot find an answer.
So, let's see if there are others having the same issue and maybe there is a solution somewhere.
Thank you.

This is definitely not Yahoo-specific, nor is it new. Definitely seems to be a bug in Mail.app. This has been happening at least since 10.5 (am now on 10.8.2), and I have a GoDaddy hosted IMAP account.
Same symptoms...I delete emails on my Mac in Mail.app. I've gotten into the habit of forcing a manual sync. The emails disappear from the Mac, but several minutes or sometimes many minutes later, if I look on my iPhone or iPad, the messages have not been deleted. If I subsequently go look on my Mac, or at the server through a webmail browser - they're back.
However, if I delete the emails from my iPhone or iPad - they really do get deleted.
As stated up above - quitting and reopening Mail.app can force a real sync that gets things going back in sync...it seems like maybe Mail.app somehow forgets to actually sync...so when this starts happening - i.e. I notice deleted emails still appear on my iPad - if I quit mail and reopen it, it also shows the previously deleted email. So the symptoms seem like there is a "cache" of actions (deletes) in Mail.app that is not getting processed to the server. When you quit, this list seems to get flushed and whatever is causing Mail.app not to sync to the server gets remedied and on restart, the not-deleted emails show up because Mail.app now syncs with the server. Occasionally it seems Mail.app somehow can come out of this without being restarted...I'm not sure if that happens when it's "kicked" by some other event, e.g. an incoming message, to sync.
Extremely annoying.

E61 IMAP IDLE - success

I'm setting up an E61 for a neighbour to use with his email server (Dovecot IMAP). After browsing various forums it looks like lots of people are complaining about the imap idle implementation on this phone.
After doing lots of testing and packet sniffing I've found the following, which hopefully will be of some use to other users.
By default, the email application does not start up when the phone is powered on. You can start it manually of course, but if you want automatic email notifications you have to be careful not to close the app (all too easy by pressing the "end call" key).
However, if the app is set to do automatic retrieval then it will give notifications without having to explicitly start the app - *so long as* the interval is set to 30 mins.
What seems to happen is that if the interval is set to 2 hours or more, the application connects, checks email, and disconnects as per the schedule. No "IDLE" command is ever sent by the phone. Obviously no good for Push-email....
However, if the interval is set to 30 mins, imap idle comes into play. On powering up the phone it connects to the server, checks email and then issues the IDLE command *and leaves the data connection open*. Then, 29 minutes later, it sends "DONE", then immediately sends "IDLE" again (rather than doing a data-intensive standard polling for new mail).
I've had the phone running in this configuration for a couple of days now over 3G and it has been 100% reliable.
The trick seems to be to use 30-mins "auto-retrieve", but this is badly worded - it could be called "Enable IMAP IDLE" on the phone. Even though it talks to the server every 30 mins (29 and a few seconds actually....), it is a very small amount of data - just enough to keep the server happy and comply with the imap idle rfc's, and does not seem to drain the battery.
Hope this all made sense and is of some use to someone....
In short - 30min auto-retrieve = phone sends "IDLE" & "DONE", push-email works.
2 hours or more - phone never sends "IDLE" and always disconnects from server after checking mail.
Phone is on "3" network in the UK and the firmware is 2.0618.06.05

I tried setting up the 30 minute interval. It does work as desired, but is not without hiccups.
a) If the server gets disconnected, it takes around 30-35 minutes to get connected again. This is acceptable, as atleast it should work predictably.
b) If you move between two zones, say from my office to my home, the connection of my E61 to the IMAP Server gets broken. If I check my mail before the E61 tries to resend the IDLE command it'll try to retrieve it, and then hang-up. After that, specially in the latest firmware 3.0633.09.04, I cannot even kill the client. Either I restart the phone, or crash the phone manually (by going into Options -> Find, searching for a text, and then clicking Options again). The client is dead, and so is the functionality of the Messaging Key. Then it'll start every half hour, connect, check the mail and disconnect (since 30 mins was the time period specified for polling).
If this is going to be the functionality, then I think having POP3 set to 30 minutes interval is more suited since atleast it'll retrieve some portion of the mail as well rather than ONLY the headers as in the case of IMAP.
If anyone can help with the questions below
1. Can't I just set the phone to check mail at 5 minute interval - i.e. Connect, Check Mail, Disconnect, after 5 minutes again Connect & so on. This happens wonderfully if you set the auto-retrieval to 5 minutes and manage to crash the mail application. It'll connect, check mail and disconnect without complaining. Only the Messaging Key will not work, and crashing the application also is difficult :-(
2. Is it possible to use an IMAP Server which does not support IDLE, so the client cannot remain connected to the server? I tried disabling the IDLE capability in Courier IMAP but it didn't work.
3. Can we use any Linux based mail server which can support ActiveSync, so the Mail For Exchange client can be used rather than the Nokia IMAP Client. Mail For Exchange seems to be much more robust (I'd checked out mail2web.com).
Sometimes I feel that since Nokia is promoting all Push Mail Clients on E61 which are available for a fee, it deliberately does not try to improve the IMAP IDLE support since it may encroach upon the subscription based Push Mail Solutions. Wish Camera Phones were allowed in my office, so would've gone for a Palm Treo with Chattermail.

Unable to connect on email yahoo Imap?

All passwords are correct, and I have been into Apple today, and whilst it seemed to pick up emails in the shop. Once home it hasn't.
We deleted the btinternet.com email in Apple serveral times, and Added account, eventully it worked...strange, but it did work.
But once at home it didn't!
I have Ipad and iphone and can pick up emails on these, but these are both POP accounts.
Everytime I add my email account, it becomes Yahoo Imap....and think this is what is causing the problem.
I can't even set up the account to a POP, because everytime I start the "add account "it automically becomes an Imap account on my Macbook Pro.
(all software is upto date)
Please can someone give me some advice and help.
Would adding apple.imap.yahoo.com help on the outgoing and incoming server?
thanks in anticaption, that someone can help.

Re: Yahoo IMAP server - Rejected Password
Apr 16, 2013 1:49 AM (in response to Renesisdriver)
For BT users I think I have a workaround (that may work for all clients). Not my ideas but a combination of suggestions given by other users.
A combination of the following seems to have worked for me.
Go to "Spotlight" on your Mac, top right corner. Type "keychain access". When the pop up screen appears, make sure in the left column you have both the following tabs selected. "Login" & "passwords". From there look through the list in the columns you have and delete EVERY mention of "yahoo" i.e. "smpt.mail.yahoo.com". Basically, if you see a line with Yahoo in it, then get rid of it.
Go to your Yahoo email account on your browser, before you login deselect the tick boxthat asks you if you want to stay signed in. After logging in, log out.
Go to "Mail" on your Mac and open up the prefernce pane. Go to accounts and channge the servers for your BT Yahoo email accounts to the following.
Use:
Incoming Server - apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server - apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
4. Restart "Mail". On some of my yahoo email accounts this worked instantaneously for me. On others it took around 5 minutes for the account to start working again. 12 hours in and the problem seems to be gone.
Good Luck to all.
this worked for me, thank-you

How to do IMAp IDLE on 9300i

I've just discovered what IMAP IDLE is. My mail server supports it, and I believe the 9300i also does.
So my question is, how to actually make it happen - how o I get the 9300i to say IDLE to the server? I can't find anything in any of the email settings.
Would be very grateful for any help, thanks
