Why do emails disappear from my Inbox?

Emails regularly disappear sometimes less than an hour to be received in my Inbox. I am able to recover through 'search' as much as I know what I'm looking for.

If the location is not your junk/spam mail folder and that you have no message filters, then my first suspicion is that you accidentally drag / drop these emails.

Do you use a touch pad on a laptop? According to my experience as a computer tech, accidental actions with a touch-pad can be common with some people and a lot of frustration.

    Hello Neilyjim,
     
    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    Sorry, you experience this problem.  How long have you been experiencing this problem?  What anti-virus software are you running?  Did you change your operating system before this problem?  While in the Inbox, access the item menu view, current view.  Make sure "show all messages" is selected.

    Norton email scanner is perhaps the single biggest troublemaker known for Windows Mail.  If it is installed and running, you have a time bomb in front of you that could just off the coast.  A similar question in this forum found the missing e-mails in some form of Norton backup folder, and I don't know if they were accessible from there or not.

    Inbox folders Windows Mail containing stored messages have disappeared

    No, you will NOT be at risk, analysis of electronic mail is a totally redundant process that does nothing but waste time and create problems.  The only way that attachments should be made by all e-mail clients before long resident file system monitor every last one of them until you can do something with them.  My suggestion is to uninstall Norton completely, download and run the Norton Removal Tool of the web Symantec site to clean debris, uninstaller fails to remove, and then reinstall Norton by using the Custom Installation option where you can stop the emails being installed analysis.

  • Read emails disappear from the Inbox when I return to the Inbox

    If 'Read' Emails are left in the "Inbox" and then I leave this folder, move it to another folder and return to the "Inbox" only "unread" e-mail is visible. All 'Read' previously in the "Inbox" emails have disappeared - I can't find them in any folder. Recently, I found the tab "Quick filter" - it is as if the tab "Unread" is locked on.

    There was a new version of Windows Live Mail that came on the back in April that caused some people (including yours truly) problems.  The solution is to save your email and contacts, uninstall Windows Live Mail, and then download and install again.  You can export your emails and contacts to CSV format and you can download Windows Live Mail from

  • Why my old emails disappear from the cloud?

    Why my old emails disappear from the cloud?  After only a month or two, they are gone! (and I pay extra each month more space!)

    Hello Unhappywoman,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    From your post, I understand that old emails are deleted after a month. This can be due to behaviors of the mailbox defined for your iCloud account.

    The following article explains how to look at these settings. My suspicion is that the section "permanently erase deleted messages when:" is set at one month old.

    Use Mail preferences to set or change options for e-mail accounts , you use mail and to work with messages and mailboxes. Choose Mail > Preferences, and then click a preferences panel for the options:

    • Accounts: Add, remove, and disable your email accounts in mail. Use only the part of the mailbox behaviors to control how the project, junk, sent, and deleted (or "Basket") messages are stored. Advanced pane includes options for messages, attachments and more.

  • BlackBerry Z10 Emails simply disappeared from my Inbox

    I noticed last week that my emails sometimes disappear from my Inbox after I download on my PC at home - didn't happen every time, from time to time (and only the emails of the day).

    I just checked my BB Z10 and all my emails from my Inbox disappeared!  I was at work all day and that you have not downloaded my messages on my PC at home since yesterday so it's not the question.

    What is happening and how to fix this?  Thanks for the help!

    Well Yes. There was a lot of recent reports of emails Yahoo endangered devices recently. Yet I have as follows a "first cause", some suspect the OS device while others suspect the Yahoo servers to be the culprit. The good news is that your emails are still safe on Yahoo servers. If it were me, here's what I would try...

    First, remove this e-mail account of your device.

    Then, with a strong support network signal (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1should causes a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):

    1) register HRT

    • KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
    • Please wait a 'registration' message appears on your screen (watch carefully, it can appear and disappear quickly)

    2) restart

    • Pre-BB10 ONLY devices. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
    • Peripheral BB10. Hold the top button until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the unit to be completely stopped (for example, nothing appears on the screen, no lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red light. Wait through the entire boot process. IF this fails, you can try the method of battery-pull above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.

    Now, reconfigure this e-mail account on your device and see if everything appears again for you. Be patient as a "first synchronization" may take some time (and it varies depending on the size of your mailbox server, the choice you make when you set up the e-mail account, etc.).

    If not the behavior returns, then it could still be caused by server or OS caused. If it's Yahoo-caused, then there is nothing to do but wait. If it's caused BONE, so the first question is what OS you are currently running:

    • Article ID: KB23393 How to find the model number and the version of the OS on a BlackBerry smartphone

    Note carefully please we do not need your "Software Version" value... which is actually pretty empty. We must instead your real version of the OS.

  • All messages have disappeared from Thunderbird Inbox.

    All of my emails have disappeared from Thunderbird Inbox. "Sent" and "Trash" messages are OK. I tried to delete the file "Inbox.msf", as some have suggested, then restarted TB, but the mailbox is still empty. My messages are apparently still in the "Inbox" file (under 'profile'), but all the gobblety-gook with loads of codes and numbers. I copy all of this mess, but don't have a clue how it back in my Inbox and make it readable. Can anyone help?

    I don't know why the size has changed... maybe I deleted something?

    I tried importing and had nothing but issues (details on my previous answer).

    I spent 3 days on this now and I'm tired. I guess I'll try using some email recovery program.

    Thanks for the help.

  • Windows Mail E-mail has disappeared from my Inbox.

    original title: Windows Mail (Vista) - Emails disappearing

    Since the beginning of may, emails hhave disappeared from my Inbox and I can't get back them.  They are not in my junk e-mail or deleted items folders or any folder in Windows Mail.  What's wrong?

    Its likely your antivirus software (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  You must get something more compatible with Winmail first (for example www.microsoft.com/security_essentials but disable the eml file type are analyzed).  Then, after removing the antivirus, remove your e-mail account, run WMUtil to compact and repair the database and then add your return email account again.

  • All my posts have disappeared from the Inbox.

    I realized there is a similar problem posted, but proposed solutions don't work here and the details here are different.

    All messages have disappeared from the Inbox. The sent box is fine, but deleted from the Inbox messages do not appear in the Recycle Bin.

    A search of the Inbox for messages of size > 0 allows me to see the messages and respond to them.
    If I move a message to another folder the moved message is invisible but believes it is search.

    Deleted messages are in the trash folder, but is not visible. A search in the trash finds them.

    Messages in the search boxes reuse (response, delete), but try to delete a selected message in the search box list has no effect.

    I found a solution. I can't take credit, but I tell you that I was almost embarrassed the simplicity of the solution and the problem.
    AT & T ConnectTech technician admitted that when I could left click and select the message in a tab, it was probable that nothing was clicked in the "select to display columns" in the top right of the CT. He clicks on a selection of articles and automatically that my messages appeared.

  • Is it possible to recover hundreds of mails that have disappeared from my Inbox after it has been quarantined today by Norton Internet Security?

    I received an infected email this morning which resulted in Norton Internet Security quarantine inbox. All received emails are gone now from the Inbox (with the exception of two who apparently arrived just before the infected message).
    (1) is it possible to recover the E-mails lost without re-infection of the Inbox?
    (2) how can I avoid this happening again? Until today, the infected emails have simply removed by Norton Internet Security on arrival without all the previous messages being lost in the Inbox.
    I would be very grateful for help.

    you force Nortons of UN-setting in the file quarantine.
    Then, you create an exception for Norton analyzes the folders that contain your Thunderbird profile, so it is not repeated.

    Be aware that the infection is not as severe as the cure. Maybe you can find someone to Semantec to explain how an email in Thunderbird can infect anything unless you physically open an infected attachment that Norton should catch when it is written in the temp folder before opening.

    I lost a lot of time talking to corporate cretins to Semantec and they charge just "this is another line of defense" when asked for more details. Why, because they can simply justify not e-mail Scanner in any other terms. Enjoy it servers little or not by the challenges of usability and convenience.

    This "mail" was written on your drive hard until Semantec has managed to make a mess of things. It's a little late don't you think saying "you have an infection. Do they expect also for stuff in your browser to be written on the disc? You bet they do. Where is the preventive surveillance to data transmissions that prevents infection before it is written on your drive?

  • BlackBerry Z10 Emails disappear from my Z10 BB!

    I have electronic mail through Cox Cable of Hampton Roads. Wireless provider is Verizon Wireless. I have a BB Z10 with OS worm. 10.0.9.422. I can receive and send emails without any problem. Emails will disappear from the Hub a short while after opening of Outlook 2007 and download the mails on my PC.

    Is there something I can do to keep my emails on the Z10? I've had this account for 20 years and I'd like to keep. I've had an iPhone since 2007, 4 of them to be exact and had no problem with my POP account. Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

    Hello Digiman63,

    Welcome to the forums.

    This is because once you check the email on your computer you are download message on the mail server and stored locally on the computer. The BlackBerry will reconcile back to the mail server and when she does what he sees that the messages have been delete so it removes the hub. To correct this problem, you need to set your e-mail on your computer client to leave copies of messages on the mail server. The following article will help you to do this.
