iCloud AND MobileMe sending email...

Anyone know how to fix this? (see attached file).

Previously I had my MobileMe and Gmail mailboxes. Now there's two iCloud, one is clearly the new iCloud and one is my old MobileMe account renamed. The problem is I'm getting two of every email as I get one from each. Not a problem if I look at inboxes separately but I prefer to see all at once so I can see my gmail at the same time.

In Settings it only shows me two different accounts set up, iCloud and Gmail. I've turned the iCloud email off, and then there was only Gmail in my Mail app. Then when I turned it back on, both accounts were still there. Any idea how to delete this extra legacy MobileMe account?

Click on the accounts you want to remove then scroll to the very bottom of the screen and you will see a red delete button.

Click to expand...

Nope. No ability to delete by clicking on those accounts from within Mail (like on the screen grab). I can delete an account from within the Settings app but this only allows me to turn iCloud mail on or off, which in turn deletes or reactivates both at the same time.

Mail on OSX is working fine and only bringing in one email at a time as it's only from iCloud.

Bump. This is really annoying me.

No, I did understand.

I will post the two same menu screen you just did. The first with the different accounts listed, and the second what I see when I click on the account (just as you did).

For mine it's different, and I don't know why. To actually see the screen you got, and the option to delete, I have to get to that through Settings. But there's only one iCloud account (and then my Gmail as well). Deleting the iCloud account gets rid of iCloud and MobileMe, and restarting the account activates both again. I appreciate the help by the way.

See, in the Settings app I only have the ability to delete the one account that carries both for some reason.

Yeah, I tried that and it deletes both accounts from Mail, but when I add the account again it adds both to Mail. So weird.

Is anyone else having this problem?

I've tried deleting the account several times and restarting it, but doing it that exact order has fixed the problem!

So for anyone else who searches and find this thread:

- Go to iCloud within the settings for Mail and delete iCloud (not just turn off Mail for iCloud, actually delete the whole iCloud account). Then go into the actual iCloud settings and login again.

Thanks a lot partysent, that was really bugging me!
