Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows what settings to change (if possible) to stop deleting my emails from the server when i delete them with my Galaxy note.
I use the samsung pre-installed email app on my galaxy S4 phone and my note 8 tablet. When i delete emails on my phone, they just delete off the phone and not from the server (ie, i can still receive them at home on my PC). But when i delete them off my note, they delete off the server so my PC never receives them.
Does anyone know if i can fix this? I checked all the settings and cant see any that would be causing this.

Just trying to understand how this works...
For some reason, when I download my email on Outlook which is supposed to be a full download from the servers (therefore, not readable anymore from devices), it doesn't remove those emails from my phone the way it used to in the past. So I have to delete them from my phone as well. What setting do I have wrong here? I can delete from the server on my phone, but it doesn't automatically delete them when I check them on Outlook.
Am I making sense??
Thanks.

Sounds like you need IMAP. POP3 simply downloads and deletes from the server, it doesn't do anything to sync across devices. IMAP syncs, rather than downloads, so it should always appear the same on all devices.

Hmm... I don't think I'm communicating properly. Let me try again.
Here's what I used to be able to do... with POP3
1. Get email while I'm out
2. Check, read email on my phone
3. Get home, check Outlook, emails downloaded
4. Emails automatically removed from phone
Can't seem to do that anymore, and I'm wondering what I may have switched in my settings. Could it have something to do with my POP or SMTP settings?
Thanks

Hmm. I have never known POP to be able to delete files from other devices after you delete them from one place. I don't actually use email on my phone other than the gmail app, so I have never had to use those settings, so unless someone else can give a better answer I would just fiddle with the settings on your phone, outlook, and web server to see if you can find an option to synchronize deletions or something rather.
Hey guys,
Wondering if anyone knows whats going on with this or if it is just my phone. I get emails to my phone instantly no problem, but when I delete them from my phone (this is all through the gmail app) they aren't deleted when I check them on my PC. The phone shows they are deleted because I did the delete from the phone, but on my PC the emails are still sitting there unread. I gave it about 15-20 minutes to see if it was just a sync issue, but they didn't seem to be deleted. Any one notice this as well? My epic 4g touch definitely deleted my emails. Thanks for any help!

I am having the same issue. Resolve it yet?
Sometimes there is a sync issue with Gmail app and Gmail. I would try to clear cache and data from the Gmail app and un-check sync from your accounts. Then recheck sync.... It's something to try.
The touchwiz email app when it checks for and downloads emails to my phone they are shown as read when I log into mail.yahoo.com on my laptop. I can't find any setting to change this. NB I haven't even read them on the phone either (and this is shown correctly as unread on the phone) but they show up as read on the main server anyway. Any ideas how to fix this?
Nobody? Come on this should be an easy one for you guys. Someone please help?

From the yahoo support mail help
Its gotta be the app itself doing it.. Have you tried K-9 Mail or something different to see if the problem persists? I don't see any settings in the stock email app that could fix this problem..
Hi there.
I have a rooted S4 mini Duos (GT-i9192) running I9192XXUBNB1 Android 4.2.2. I added my work's Exchange mail, and a personal pop3 account. The mail app looks like it went and rooted around *everywhere* and found pictures for some contacts, and added dozens of other addresses which appear to be fake senders of spam that had at one point been in the pop3 account's inbox.
Now whenever I start typing an address it comes up with lots of results which are just garbage which I cannot seem to remove.
I cleared the cache and data on:
Favourite Contacts
Google Contacts Sync
Samsung Contact SyncAdapter
I've logged into my gmail account (which I never use) and deleted all the contacts there, and told it not to sync contacts but still they remain.
I cleared both my mail accounts from the mail program, readded just the work Exchange one and it's still there.
The only time I ever see a reference to these addresses is when I'm composing mail. If I click/hold the address to try and get an option on it I don't. I can add it to contacts but of course I don't want that, I just want to delete them.
Any advice? I'm raging hard.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone? Please?
Have you clear data and cache from the mail app? I think those ghost contacts are in your phone the contact app or were synchronized to your exchange account check there

I'd cleared all accounts but the mail app doesn't have a "clear data" option, it's greyed out. I had a look on Exchange but no contacts for these users there, not even in the "suggested contacts" box.
I'm getting close to nuking it and starting again. I'm sure as heck never buying Samsung again. It's as if I'm borrowing a phone from them and they're trying to determine how I can and can't use it.
I also noticed another issue: I have an app that requires a password to be entered on logging in, but the keyboard shows and even *caches* this password. I can remove it, but it'll automatically re-cache it unless I turn off all the learning features. Is this just some idiocy from the Samsung keyboard? And if so, is there a better one I can install?
Does anyone use LG Mail for their work Exchange Server? IF so, do you get constant message where it says your work email password has changed and to re-enter it? I didn't have this issue on my Note 3 using Samsung Email. On top of that my calendar doesn't sync anymore? I would have to recreate the account to see new entries I just added.

I do, and I don't. Works perfectly.
