I am running 10.2.8 with mail 1.2.5 (v533) on a beige G4. Just
today the following message popped up in my junk folder:
The message from <Unknown sender> concerning “<Unknown subject>”
has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this
account online in order to download it.
The From and Subject in the list view of the mail box is blank, and
when I view the message there is no header at all, even when I
select show all headers. Also, the content does not change if I
select Show Raw Source. I have also selected all text and pasted it
into a new textedit document and nothing new shows up. All my
mailboxes are pop and are Online.
I have seen 3-4 of these today, and this is the first time I have
seen this. It has possibly corrupted my junk mail box (or it may be
coincidence. I lost some messages in the Junk mailbox today (I
leave mail there and it is not set to autodelete) that showed up in
my regular inbox after I rebuilt all my mailboxes.
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
I suspect Mail got confused or interrupted while downloading from
your mail server, and has a record that it tried to get a message,
but nothing else. This has nothing to do with the content of any mail
message. It may have been mid-check when you server or network
connection blinked.
I'd just delete the thing.
