Bought a new 13" Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display back in June, and ever since I set it up, I've been having issues with mail. Both issues relate to deleting messages, so I figure they're likely related.
First thing is, sometimes when I delete emails, close the program, they magically reappear in my inbox when I reopen mail.
The second thing is, if I close mail right after deleting an email, it gives an error message like 'The message “...” could not be moved to the mailbox “Trash — On My Mac”' and 'An error occurred while moving messages to mailbox “Trash — On My Mac”.
This never happened on my last Macbook Pro, which was the mid-2009 model, even though both laptops run Mavericks. I'm assuming that it's some setting that I'm not aware of causing this issue. I thought it was the fact that my iCloud account was set up to work with Mail, but I turned that off, and it's still doing this.
One of the funny things I've noticed, is that under Mail Activity, it will say "Incoming messages 12 of 48" or whatever number at the time, even when there are no new messages. It never did this on my last laptop.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
I have lots of emails missing from my mailbox from the day i upgraded to mavricks
Example i have a mailbox called "machines" which shows only email from 20-02-14 all mails before that date are missing..
I tried rebuild mailbox but it just shows mail from 20-02-14.
The interesting part is the mail from before is still there..
when i search for a mail in spotlight from a sender it shows the mail and shows it to be in the machines folder.. i can open the mail read its content. But when i see the machines mailbox the mail is not listed there.
what could be the problem and how can i get the mails back this is happening on almost every mailbox.
I am running Mavericks 10.9.3 on my iMac and recently had to have the Genius Bar completely reset my system due to issues with performance since the upgrade. I was primarily using Backblaze to back up my entire operating system. I am now trying to restore "Mailboxes on My Mac"in Mail. I was able to get the actual names of mailboxes back via going to my library in the back up and moving all folders to my current library, however it only restored the mailboxes themselves. There are no emails that were but should have been included.
I have a Hotmail account linked to my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5S and have recently upgraded to OS X 10.9.4...Each day now I notice that I have unread email notifications for my hotmail email account, and have to scroll back days or weeks to find and delete them. They are always duplicates of emails which I've already seen (as opposed to emails arriving much later than they were sent).

I have set up an email inbox on my macbook pro and another on my home pc (outlook 2007),when the home pc looks at the email then the email disappears from my mailbox on macbook?
I would like to be able to store deleted emails indefinitely until I empty the trash mailbox. Even though I check "never" in the mailbox behavior, it only keeps the messages for 30 days.
When I send an email, why does it also show up in my "Drafts" mailbox?Is there a setting in my preferences that needs to be changed to prevent this from happeing?
Since I upgraded to Yosemite my Mail has gone amok. Emails show up directly in Archive, instead of for instance Inbox or Sent. Some sent emails don't show up in any mailbox at all, but apparently they reach the recipient.
How can I delete the Archive mailbox? It works totally different than how it is described in manuals. I have NEVER moved any email to Archive, but it is full of all sorts of emails from all the other mailboxes. I want ALL my received emails in the Inbox and my sent emails in the Sent box.

I have recently switched to MacMail. But all my inward mail is going to the Spam folder. How do I prevent that? And how do I transfer the e-mails from Spam to the appropriate mailbox?
We have changed e-mail providers and I want to archive my current saved e-mails in Mac Mail. I saw an earllier discussion about creating folders in Mac Mailbox and moving e-mails manually into the folders. I've set up a series of folders. How do I move my e-mails from the Concast folders to the new folders I've now created in Mac Mail?
I renamed a Mailbox, trying to rationalize my boxes. The mailbox contained six other mailboxes, some of which have sub-mailboxes. i.e. three levels. A new (blue) folder appeared with the right name but nothing it. No folders, no email. I suppose the actual individual emails have lost their addresses or something. I went into a separate hard drive back up, into my User Library, and made a copy of the correct mailbox which has the email in it. I dragged it into Mail (I think?!) but it is uncoloured and although it has the nested mailboxes in it, there no email in any of them. How can I restore the email? I tried dragging the individual email but Mail wouldn't register it at all. I am very nervous about losing this email because it represents a vital part of the last four years of my research and I use it every day.
I am trying to rename a mailbox that is a sub-mailbox to another, both of which I originally created to store email messages. I can highlight the name and type a new one, or I can go to the Mailbox menu and select Rename Mailbox, then type the new name. In both cases I get the following error message:Mail was unable to rename "~/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes/AFS.mbox/EBO".

I have an IMAC 5.1 with OSX 10.6.8. When I restored a mailbox using Time Machine, the mailbox appears in Apple Mail however no emails are visible even though they are present in the folder in library/mail/mailboxes in Finder. how I can make the emails visible?
I am using a new 24 inch IMac. I just decided to use mail 3.5 vice thunderbird and have had a number of issues (To me, the program seems incredibly buggy which shocks me)...I have been able to work through most but here is a minor annoyance I cant seem to figure out...
When I delete an email from a list of emails, I want the next email that is highlighted to be the one that is the next one down, not the one that is the next one up. How do you establish this preference?
I just set up my iCloud account and now I receive emails to both my Cox account on my Mail app on my Mac Pro AND on my iCloud account. How do you set it up to where if you delete emails off your Mail app on your Mac it will also delete that same emails off your iCloud account?
I have Mac Mail setup to delete all emails after one month, this includes the Sent, Junk, and Trash. However Mail is only keeping one week's worth. I use iCloud as my sole email account. This issue has been occuring for a few months now.
I tried to email a video as an attachment to 5 recipients. I did this 5 times in a row with different videos attached to each. They got jammed up and never went out. I deleted them on my macbook pro and they do not show up in my outbox. Now I can't send or receive email on either my laptop or my iphone. My iphone worked for awhile, but now no. I think I need to delete them on the 'server'...
I was trying to change my mail account from POP to IMAP. Had to delete the account. After creating the account again, I found out that I lost all my emails files, Inbox, sent items, etc...Is there a solution te recuperate all these emails ??
Im trying to clean out my hdd, and found 10GB of archived mail. I have my gmail setup with IMAP, so i have a copy on googles servers of everything. How can I delete these archives without deleting the copy on gmail? I just want to start fresh on my end, and leave everything save on the server.
I use Yahoo mail (have been for about 8-9 years). I now read my mail through the web, download it to Mail on my iMac, iPhone and now iPad. I like using the native Mail applications on each device rather than going to the web, but I use the webpage when I'm at work. When I want to delete mail that I don't want. I do like leaving it on the server so I can check old e-mails from any location. Is there a way to manage all of this so I don't have to delete about 20-30 unneeded mail messages from 4 different places? It becomes pretty annoying seeing that same message that I deleted twice before show up on another device (along with 100 others) if I don't check a device for a few days.
I have got a talk talk email account. I have set my iphone to remove emails from the server following deletion from my phone, however, when i look at my emails on my macbook, all the emails are still there. They just don't remove.
I was deleting all my emails from outlook express. I did something wrong (I think I might have hit smart mailbox or something to that affect) and now I only have the bar at the top - nothing else - do not know how to fix or restore. Email account is still good - I can access it on laptop - no problem
Because Mac Mail crashes from time to time, I have duplicate mail from generations of imported mailboxes. How can I find and delete the duplicates safely in Yosemite?
