Intel Mac :: Mail 4.5 Not Downloading Emails

Jun 2, 2012

I am using an iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, which has Mail 4.5 on it.Since yesterday, my Mail application will no longer download e-mails. When I open it, the little tray in the corner says it is downloading message 26 of 26, but after it finishes, nothing happens. No new Mail has been downloaded. It keeps doing this, even after a reboot (I have double-checked that the order of my Mail hasn't changed, and it isn't just showing at the bottom).

Today, I removed my Gmail account from Mail, and added it again. I entered my Gmail username/password. Once set up, it proceeds to download e-mails (downloading 1 of 26). The thing is, it has shown this constantly for the last 20 minutes. I don't even have big recent e-mails.

Applications :: Unable To Setup Mail For Gmail / Computer Starts Downloading Thousands Of Emails

Mar 28, 2010

I've got limited hard drive space. In gmail, I keep my inbox pared down to just a few emails I'm actively working on (ie 3-10 emails at a time). Everything else gets archived. However, when I try to set up Mac Mail for gmail (as described on 50 different websites), my computer starts downloading thousands of emails - my sent mail, anything I've tagged, etc. I don't want all this. I just want the few active emails (my inbox) at any one time.

I've tried mapping folders in Mail (ie Use this folder for....), but can't seem to pare it down to just the inbox.

OS X Mavericks :: Mail Is Not Receiving New Emails

Aug 20, 2014

Mail is not receiving new emails from either of my 2 email accounts (Media Temple and Gmail).  The program sits idle while the messages come in on my phone and iPad.  Restarting the program seems to wake it up, but I'm not content to do that each time I need to check my email.  I have Mail on my MacBook Pro and have never had this particular problem, it's just on my brand new iMac.

OS X Mavericks :: Mail App Has Deleted Emails?

Aug 25, 2014

I opened up mail today to find that my entire inbox has been totally wiped. This is quite inconvenient for many reasons, but I'm not sure how to fix it. I still have the emails in my outbox, sent and drafts folder, but there is nothing to be found in my inbox. It doesn't appear as if my emails are in the trash anywhere either.I'm with telus, for what it's worth,and I'm running 10.9.2.

OS X Mavericks :: Mail App Not Listing Sent Emails

Sep 5, 2014

How to make mail app list all sent emails? In particularly those not sent from mail app but from example iphone, ipad and browser. I have - as you may have guessed - gmail - I have always had this issue, which until three months ago, thought was just one of those things I would just have to accept and live with.

However, three months ago I started my new job, we also use gmail as email provider (though our emails don't end with @gmail.com but @corporatename.com) I have these two email accounts setup exactly the same way in both mail apps, but the mail app in my work laptop lists emails I have sent from browsers and smart phone (my work mobile is not an iphone) but the mail app on my private laptop doesn't. How can this be, and how do I make mail app at home do as my work app mail does

OS X Mavericks :: Mail - Sent Emails Missing?

Jun 17, 2014

Apple Mail Version 7.3 (1878.2) 

I have a number of email accounts, most of them IMAP. 

It seems recently (say the past month) its been very slow.  The Activity windows shows the accounts seems to just not move.  They do eventually process but it takes a long time.  They will sit for a minute on stuff like: 

"Opening mailbox"

"Getting unread counts"

"Checking status of mailbox" 

It seems sometimes they are fast, but when an account gets "stuck" it just takes forwever........  

Shutting Mail down (or trying to reboot) takes a long time because it always has to wait for these processes to try and finish. 

Perhaps the bigger problem (maybe related maybe not) is that sometimes when I send an email, there is not record of that email.   Its not placed in any Sent folder, its not uploaded to the IMAP account.  However, they do seem to be actually sent.   I *think* this may account while Mail is "stuck" trying to process an account, but I'm not sure....  

I have tried Rebuilding all the IMAP folders (not all my offline folders).  I have deleted the Envelope files to have Mail reindex.

OS X Mavericks :: How To Move Emails Into Folders From Mail App Search

Jun 1, 2014

I have had problems recently getting new folders to list alphabetically and went: Library>Mail>V2> removed envelope folders > and re-opened Mail and the listing worked properly. 

Then I updated: OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 (Update (Combo) [URL] ... This sorted out what was, after installing Mavericks, a slower computer. Very happy. However now, when I do a search in the Mail App. and then drag one email to a folder and then click on others and choose move to 'the same folder as one before' it does this but the search replenishes the same email and around and around we go. Before updating this was working fine. How to rectify the search to folder problem descibed above

OS X Mavericks :: (10.9.2) Does Apple Mail Filter Identical Emails?

Aug 21, 2014

I have a curious question:  Does Apple Mail filter identical mails? 

More precisely, I am expecting a number of mails that are identical, except they arrive from different mailing lists. 

However, I can only see one of them. 

So, I was wondering whether Apple mail has some "intelligence" built in that would filter out the others.

OS X Mavericks :: After Upgrade Mail Does Not Connect To Server To Download Emails

Jun 26, 2014

Since I have had my system upgraded to Maverick I can no longer download emails from my server/provider. Mail asks for the password for the user (me) and when I type it in nothing happens.

There is no problem connecting to my server/provider online, so the server is working ok. My guess is that I am missing some crucial ticked or unticked box in the mail set up.

like I said, no email alerts of mails getting through at the moment (so have to read everything only when I'm online...).

OS X Mavericks :: Mail Downloads Only Emails 30 Days Old Or Older To Inbox

Sep 7, 2014

My mac mail will not download mails newer than 30 days to my inbox. 

Mails older than 30 days are downloading fine from my godaddy IMAP account.

I tried on another mac with the same result! Using another mail client than Apple mail or iOS mail on my phone works fine so the issue seems to be related to the Apple mail client (and/or iCloud?!). 

Sent mails are synced OK so it is only an inbox related issue. 

Rebuilding the mail database does not work.  What to do next ?!

OS X Mavericks :: Delete Emails On Mail App But Remain On Gmail Server

Jun 23, 2014

I have 128 GB HDD and many emails syncing by Gmail IMAP. Thousands of emails are stored on my HDD and most of them I will never use in the future. Despite this I'd like to keep them in gmail server, just for case... 

I was trying to reduce size of my Mail.app for very long time and nothing works correctly.  

Ideal situation would be something like this:

E-mails older than 2 months will automatically delete from Mail.app but not from server. Or it doesn't have to be automatic, but I have to keep them on gmail.com. I'm not sure if it is possible with IMAP.

OS X Mavericks :: How To Keep Emails In Apple Mail After They Have Been Downloaded From Exchange Server

Sep 12, 2014

I have an urgent issue with my work email. I have used Apple Mail to read and store my work email right off my work Exchange server - without any problem. All was fine, and for what seems a very long time, I happily used both my win 7 laptop at work and my 2 Apple computers at home and during travel as well as my iPhone - anywhere.  

However, now, there is a new policy at work where all email older than 3 months (sigh!!) has been removed to an "online archive" of the "emc SourceOne" - which is a non-crossplattform service - and not accessible from other than a windows PC with supported browser (not including SafarI). (Windows revenge) I have lost all access to these on my iPhone, which is a shame - not Apples fault, though. This is  not about blaming Apple.  However, I still have all my "older than 3 months" email in theory safely kept on both of my Apple computers - presumably safely stored in Apple Mail. 

Here is my question: I have not dared to connect either of these imacs / mbas to Internet - at all - in fear of losing my precoius work emails. I have feared that the exchange server will kill all these "older than 3 months" email kept there - as soon as it gets a chance to do so. 

1. Can I safely connect Apple Mail to internet without losing my already downloaded exchange emails?

2. If not - how should I proeceed to get these files safely transferred to my iCloud email?

OS X Mavericks :: Mail Program No Longer Handles Group Emails Correctly

Sep 3, 2014

Has Mavericks’ Mail program lost the ability to handle group email addresses? Since I switched to Mavericks, Mail does not handle Group Address emails correctly. Even though Mail Preferences are set so that individual email addresses in each group are not supposed to show, Mail does show the individual addresses rather than the Group address(s).

The only solution is to send out Group emails with my own address in the “To” line and all of the “Group” addresses placed in the “Bcc:” window of the email. Apparently the option to not have the addresses show when using group addresses in the "To:" line does not function in Mavericks.

OS X Mavericks :: Emails Won't Stay Filed Into Folders On Mac Mail With IMAP Account?

Jun 22, 2014

i use both an apple mail email and an IMAP email for my business.  

I have had a recurring problem with filing mail:I am trying to file all email messages onto my iCloud folders on my mail.  

1. When i file mail into a folder into won't stay in the folder. It comes back into my inbox.

Furthermore, if it does file messages (which is sporadic) then the messages will go into the folder but someones a copy will also reappear back in my inbox) 

2. When i delete emails: the appear back in my inbox even though i have deleted them. 

I do not receive an error message when this happens, the emails just pop back up & into my mailbox 

How I can do a work around to get message to stay in the folder i want them? Due to this issue  my inbox has over 4000 emails in the inbox and i really need to file documents away.

I am operating on OS X 10.9.3 (13D65) and all my updates are up to date!

OS X :: Software Updater Suddenly Slow - Not Downloading In Snowleopard

Jun 18, 2010

I don't know whats going on. My SU was working fine until i noticed last night when I went to download iTunes 9.2, the downloading speed was real slow....like an hour or more on the timer. I tried multiple times then went to bed. internet connection is fine because today I've been downloading stuff on my other computer and just used software update to download iTunes on this machine that has both my Tiger partition and an SL partition, and it downloaded fine on that. However, I tried downloading some software app from apple directly form their website and the speed is fine. And now also, trying to download iTunes from the updater aborts about halfway saying it can't be verified or corrupted. I don't get it. what the heck could be wrong?
