Re: Mail Problem

[Diana & Graham Stevens]

I am still struggling with this. I hoped someone would tell me if I should 
delete Graham's account and reinstate (and how to do it) or else suggest how I 
might get his SMTP server back online.

If I delete the account in Internet Accounts it warns it will remove its data 
from Mail, does this include all his downloaded emails?

If I delete the account in Mail I am afraid it will not allow me to set up a 
new account, that I may still get the sort of message I get when I try to edit 
the SMTP settings "A SMTP account already exists. Only a single SMTP account is 
allowed to be saved."

I've looked at the advice given on Apple's official Mail site but they don't 
tell you what to do if you can't save the settings. Their Mail Settings Lookup 
gives me the wrong information for the account, it thinks it is IMAP and has 
different ports. Maybe this is the 'Ghost' account except that Mail Settings 
Lookup gets the ports settings for my accounts wrong too, maybe it doesn't work 
in Sierra.

Connection Doctor reports that his SMTP server is offline but the "Network 
Diagnostics" is greyed out and nothing I select activates it.

I tried deleting the Preferences but it didn't delete the Server settings.

Re: Mail Problem

[Diana & Graham Stevens]

Postscript to my previous message:

I have got rid of the extra Internet Account. There was only one shared note, I 
unshared it, deleted the account, re-shared and the extra account did not 
reappear. It was redundant anyway as it is part of the iCloud Account.

It made no difference, Graham’s SMTP server is still offline. Should I delete 
his account and reinstate?

Diana

Hi Ronni

I had tried to edit the SMTP Server list but did not try adding a server. 

I added the server as you described below. But when I select it from the list 
it puts my email address in the username.

The drop-down list has:
iCloud (Offline)
iinet.net.au 
mail.iinet.net.au  (Offline)
SMTP [default name added server]

Choosing any option from the list results in my email address being in the 
username. Choosing the 3rd option initially puts Graham's address in, then it 
changes to mine. I tried to get the server back online, tried taking all 
accounts offline, restart, safe mode, zapped PRAM (totally weird with no chime) 
nothing fixed it.

The outgoing port is 587, I assume that Daniel chose this when he set up the 
computer. 

I just looked in the Internet Account Preferences and there is one for each of 
our accounts plus a second iinet.net.au  labeled 'Notes' 
where the others have 'Mail'. When I select it I get the error message "Can't 
connect to account ... enter password ...". 

Should I delete it?

Thanks for your help, Diana

Mail Problem

[Diana & Graham Stevens]

Good morning all

Graham can't send emails from his POP account (no problem with incoming mail). 
At first this fault was intermittent but for the last 2 days every time he 
tried he got the same message "Can't connect to server ... enter password" then 
"unable to verify ...".

In preferences the SMTP password wasn't filled in with "optional" showing. If I 
filled in the password I couldn't save it because only one SMTP server is 
allowed.

Because Graham needed to send an important email, I set up one of my email 
addresses with his name and he sent it last night.

This morning I sent a test message from his account and it went. When I looked 
at the preferences for his account my email address is in the SMTP box and the 
password is now filled in. Gremlins?

I tried to change the SMTP to his account but got the same "only one allowed" 
How can I fix this please.

Thanks again Ronni.  After about 3 hours of downloading and re- installing

 Hi John,
 
 A couple of questions first:
 A] Is this since upgrading from OS X 10.11.6 to macOS Sierra 10.12? or 
 updating macOS Sierra10.12 to 10.12.3?
 B] Do you receive any error message as to why Mail quit?
 C] Have you tried Restarting your MacBook Pro after Mail Quits, then 
 launch Mail right after you restart?
 
 I would first suggest you “Try A Safe Boot”
 
 To perform a safe boot, follow these steps:
 1. Start or Restart your Mac.
 2. Hold the Shift key immediately when you hear the startup chime, press 
 the Shift key and hold it down until the gray Apple logo appears on the 
 screen.
 3. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo
 
 Your Mac will complete the startup process, which will take considerably 
 longer than usual. 
 You’ll eventually see the words “Safe Boot” on the screen—possibly within

Thanks Ronni.  I thought I may have to go down that track so will attend to it 
later today, or tomorrow.  Nothing much else to do with this current weather - 
Golf is out.

Hi John,

Would there be any chance you have a corrupted email message that could be 
stopping Mail App from loading?
But, if you have the exact same email messages on both your computers - the Mac 
mini & MacBook Pro and you are NOT experiencing any problem with Mail on the 
MacBook Pro, I would not think so.

The only way you can reinstall Mail.app is to Reinstall macOS.

You can do this without affecting your files and settings.
But as always I recommend having a current bootable backup and/or Time Machine 
backup!

For this to work in macOS Recovery, you must be connected to the Internet. 

1. Boot into macOS Recovery Partition 

Hold down Command-R at startup until the Apple logo appears to see emergency 
mode.
macOS Recovery gives you four choices:

2. Select “Reinstall macOS”

Click the Wi-Fi icon at the top right of the screen and choose a network. 
Enter the network’s password, if necessary.
Select Reinstall macOS, and then click the Continue button. 

The Sierra installer data—roughly 5 GB downloads over the Internet from Apple’s 
servers; once the download is finished, installation proceeds.

Be prepared for the download to take anywhere from 20 minutes to several hours, 
depending on your connection; installation will then take another 15 to 30 
minutes.
—
During installation your Mac will restart a few times, sometimes you won’t hear 
a start up chime the screen will just be black.
Let the installation process complete - don’t interrupt it!
--
After your computer boots back into mac OS Sierra 
Perform Post-installation Tasks:
A) Respond to Immediate Questions
Among the most common questions are requests for your user account password or 
Apple ID password. For example, certain apps may once again need an 
administrator’s authorization to make changes to your data, and various apps 
that use your Apple ID (including iTunes and iBooks) may need you to sign in 
again.

Check System Preferences > iCloud to make sure you’re signed in to iCloud (and 
with the correct Apple ID). Do the same in iTunes (Account > View My Account) 
and the App Store (Store > View My Account).
NOTE:  Make sure “iCloud Drive” in NOT activated! (unless you wish to use it; 
you can set it up at a later date if needed).

Let us know how you get on please.

Regards,
Ronni

Hi John,

A couple of questions first:
A] Is this since upgrading from OS X 10.11.6 to macOS Sierra 10.12? or updating 
macOS Sierra10.12 to 10.12.3?
B] Do you receive any error message as to why Mail quit?
C] Have you tried Restarting your MacBook Pro after Mail Quits, then launch 
Mail right after you restart?

I would first suggest you “Try A Safe Boot”

To perform a safe boot, follow these steps:
1. Start or Restart your Mac.
2. Hold the Shift key immediately when you hear the startup chime, press the 
Shift key and hold it down until the gray Apple logo appears on the screen.
3. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo

Your Mac will complete the startup process, which will take considerably longer 
than usual. 
You’ll eventually see the words “Safe Boot” on the screen—possibly within the 
login window, depending on which version of macOS you’re running.

4. Open Mail.app as soon as startup process completes.

If rebooting in safe mode solves the problem, you know that some system level 
process is at fault or that one of the caches disabled by safe mode was 
corrupted. 

5. Restart normally and see if the problem is gone.

Ronni

Mail problem

[John Thompson]

Since upgrading the Os on my 13” Macbook Pro (2012) Mail will not open.  It 
quits within a couple of secondsor less each time I try toopen it.  Is there 
any way I can re-install Mail for this computer?  Do not have any problemson

Re: Mail problem

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Bill,

If you are able to Receive Mail but Unable to send mail, the problem is with 
the Outgoing Mail Server SMTP.

The most likely reason is one of the following:
* You have the wrong SMTP server selected
*You have the incorrect settings for the right SMTP server
*Your ISP is blocking the port Mail wants to use
*The SMTP server doesn't respond quickly enough

You mention your ISP is Bigpond, so do you have the correct Bigpond Outgoing 
Mail Server (SMTP) Settings entered.
 1. Go to Mail  Preferences  Accounts - select an Account, and click Account 
Information.
2. In Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) pop-up menu near the bottom, verify that the 
server selected is the one matching your incoming account, and that 'Use Only 
This Server' is checked. If the server appears to be correct but you're still 
getting errors when sending email, proceed with...
3. From the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) pop-up menu, choose Edit SMTP Server 
List.
4. In the list at the top, make sure the SMTP server that was selected for the 
account is still selected, and click the (-) minus button to remove it 
(confirming the deletion if prompted to do so).
5. Click the (+) button to add a new SMTP server. Fill in the Account 
Information and Advanced views with the information you got from your email 
provider.
6. Click OK
Now choose Window  Connection Doctor, and wait for it to complete its checks. 
Next to the SMTP server you just modified, if you see a green dot (on the left) 
and the text (on the right) Connection and login to server succeeded, the 
change worked.

If not, you must have incorrect settings:
Your SMTP server requires several settings to be exactly correct: 
Your email address, username, and password; the server's address; the port; the 
authentication method; and the SSL setting (On or Off). 
If any of these is wrong, you won't be able to send mail.

If you require more help - Post back with all the details you have entered for 
the email account.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Mail problem

[Bill Parker]

Thansk Ronni,


I was beginning to get to issue from the instructions below. However, an 
hour with iinet/westnet earlier today suggested all was well  with all 
accounts when they ran tests and looked all my account details.



So given that I have just gone back in the reviewed everything. All 
“outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) entries were all showing online.   Then…  
one of my queued non-sending test emails  popped up and immediately the 
entry showed “off line”.  All three accounts are now showing offline.  
Connection doctor shows all good.


So here are the details for one email:
ren...@westnet.com.au


Description   renew3
ren...@westnet.com.au  ( a few re-routed addresses using that email)

Fill Name   Bill Parker

User Name as email

password ( its correct from the Westnet support this am)

Outgoing Mail Server  (SMTP)  BIGP (offline showing)

Use only this server unchecked

TLS Cert Non.


Now I cannot even receive emails!!   So I am using Thunderbird

Mail problem

[Bill Parker]

Folks,

I am experiencing problems sending emails using Mail.   Incoming are NOT 
a problem.


I cannot send anything.  I have had the iinet/westnet techs confirm that 
all is well with the connections ( I use bigpond)


On trying to send a message with Mail I get a small window that says:

Cannot send message using server MAIN  And if I try the other accounts 
this is the same message with server name changed.


I am using Thunderbird to send this message.

Any help welcome.

Missing Messages in Mail - Problem Solved!

Hi All,

I found the slider for the mailbox size can actually be moved clear out off
the mailbox window! There is just a very small bit showing. Dragging it
down solved the problem.

 Rick,  also check In Mail, open  ‘Get Account Info' window by choosing it

 Do the messages that Mail keeps downloading repeatedly appear there?
 If they are, select them and choose ‘Remove From Server’.

Hi Ronni,

I read in Rick's posting that he was having problems even opening Mail before 
it crashed. 

 3. I have trashed the ‘Envelope Index’ but Mail crashes when I launch 
 Mail, (looks like it is trying to import and rebuild about 12,000 messages 
 before it quits).

Hence my suggestion. 

Tim

I understand Tim, I wasn’t haven’t a go at you, I just wondered why
My interpretation of Rick’s
 4. As nothing has happened I have put the ‘Envelope Index’ back into Mail 
 (UsersLibraryMail)
 5. I have done the rebuild and synchronise account.
 6. I have to send this from my iBook because I can't receive or send emails 
 now.

that after 4  5 Rick could now launch Mail, but not able to send or receive. 
So I suggested then that he go to Mail  File  Preferences  Select the 
Account, select the Advanced Tap, check Remove copy from server after 
retrieving a message:, and select “Remove Now”.
So there would be nothing on the Server, then he could manually delete the 
duplicates and hopefully the problem would be solved ;-)

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Robert,

You said you were using  Apple Mail in OS 10.6.8 iMac 27 3.2 Ghz Intel Core i3 
... not Lion OS X 10.7.
I’m not a mind reader ;-)

Show User ~/Library in OS X Lion
Launch Terminal from Spotlight or Launchpad - Utilities, and enter the
following command to show or hide the directory:

chflags nohidden ~/Library/

The users Library folder will immediately become visible again. 
OR, even easier:
Just press and hold the “option/alt” key, and you can choose 
“Go to Library” in the Go menu of the Finder.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Mail Problem - Huge

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Robert,

Originally I was helping you fix your Apple Mail in OS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) 
now you mention you have Lion on your computer ... So I responded with 
instructions how to show the User ~/Library (otherwise known as the Home 
Library) in Lion OS X 10.7.

You now have instructions how to find ~/Library - Mail Folder in both Lion  
Snow Leopard.

But why do you even need to do this now? as you mentioned earlier that Hi Ronda!
 I've done all that now and it all seems OK--
If the duplicates have gone and not appeared again, you don't need to do 
anything else.
There is no need to do anything in the User Library.

Re: Mail Problem - Huge

[Rick Armstrong]

Thanks all, my problem is fixed now, I still don't why the triplicate  
emails but may be attributable to

1. Not enough useable Hard Disk space.
2. Using Mail as an archive for ALL emails AND attachments.
3. With all the triplicate emails - this filled up the little  
available space on hard drive and then Mail could do anything because  
it was overloaded.
4. SOLUTION: One WD 2Tb External Drive from OfficeWorks ($98) then I  
was able to follow through with the advice from the group easily.

Thanks, Rick.

Re: Mail Problem - Huge

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Robert,

In Snow Leopard the User Library is NOT hidden, you don’t use Terminal to show 
Library in Snow Leopard! It is shown in Snow Leopard.
The User Library in Snow Leopard is located on your Macintosh HD  Users Folder 
 your Username  Library.

What operating system ARE you using Apple Mail in?  In Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.8 
OR Lion OS X 10.7?
You have me completely confused ….

I will be heading out to see a client soon, and then I will be away for the 
week-end. I might not be able to get back to you until Monday if you require 
anymore help.

Cheers,
Ronni

Mail Problem

[Rick Armstrong]

For some reason Mail has now have triplicate copies of received  
mesages. (929 unread triplicates)

1. I cannot delete the messages.
2. I have tried to trash the Envelope Index but it crashes
3. I think that there are to many mesages in Mail for me to do  
anything, trash, rebuild

Thanks Rick.

Mail Problem - Huge

[Rick Armstrong]

For some reason Mail has triplicates of recent received messages from 1 
Sept to 8 Sept.

1. Mail has now 931 unread triplicate messages.
2. I cannot delete them.
3. I have trashed the ‘Envelope Index’ but Mail crashes when I launch 
Mail, (looks like it is trying to import and rebuild about 12,000 
messages before it quits).
4. As nothing has happened I have put the ‘Envelope Index’ back into 
Mail (UsersLibraryMail)

5. I have done the rebuild and synchronise account.
6. I have to send this from my iBook because I can't receive or send 
emails now.
The hard drive is getting full and I have tried to clear some space but 
perhaps it is not enough to enable Mail to rebuild.
(My quick solution is to go to Officeworks this morning and get an 
external to clear a lot more space on the hard drive OR if the group 
can suggest somewhere else to get an external quickly, I have to do 
this anyway because the drive is getting towards capacity)

Thanks, Rick

Hi Rick,

Is this a POP Account and are you leaving Mail on The Server?
If it is and you are leaving mail on the server, go to Mail  File  
Preferences  Select the Account, select the Advanced Tap, check Remove copy 
from server after retrieving a message:, and select “Remove Now”.
That will leave nothing on the mail server if you are comfortable with that. 
Then, manually delete any additional messages that may be taking up extra space.

You can then remove as much as possible from your Hard Drive until you have 
enough Free Space on it.
Sounds like your Mail might require some clearing out and your Hard Drive.


Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Rick. This is just an idea to show you what files may be taking up  
the space; If you go 'USERS - HOME - LIBRARY - MAIL - YOUR MAIL  
ACCOUNT - INBOX.mbox - MESSAGES. Then view in LIST VIEW, then click  
SIZE you can see all your attachments from the largest to the smallest  
and delete if needed. Do the same with SENT messages, plus other  
accounts you may have.


Hope this helps
Jon

Hi Rick,

If you still cannot open Mail for it crashing, you may be able to remove all 
the mail on the server by logging in via webmail and clearing everything there. 
At least then poor Mail is not trying to download 931 messages again 
immediately on opening.

Hi Tim,

What I mentioned above should remove all messages from the Mail Server, why 
would Rick need to login to webmail also?

Rick,  also check In Mail, open  ‘Get Account Info' window by choosing it from 
the Action menu (gear icon) located below the Mailbox list in the main Mail 
window. 
Do the messages that Mail keeps downloading repeatedly appear there?
If they are, select them and choose ‘Remove From Server’.

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Robert,

What have you tried to correct the problem of duplicate emails?
Have you checked that the messages ARE being cleared from the Server?
Check In Mail, open  ‘Get Account Info' window by choosing it from the Action 
menu (gear icon) located below the Mailbox list in the main Mail window. 
Do the messages that Mail keeps downloading repeatedly appear there?
If they are, select them and choose ‘Remove From Server’.

If you have Rules set to move WAMUG messages into a Mailbox named WAMUG?
If so, have you tried selecting the WAMUG Mailbox, then go to Mailbox (Menu)  
Rebuild?

If that doesn’t solve the problem, quit Mail, navigate to ~/Library/Mail and 
drag the file Envelope Index to the Trash. 
When you launch Mail again, it’ll tell you that you need to “reimport” all your 
messages.
Let it do so—it’s recreating your envelope index from scratch, but don’t worry, 
you won’t lose any data, such as labels or message status and when it finishes, 
your mailboxes should behave correctly.


Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Mail problem

[Alexander Hartner]

Hi Andrew,

Verify you have the correct password set in Keychain, then close mail and go 
for a 10-15 minute coffee break. 

After the break open mail and run the connection doctor under the Window 
menu. This will either succeed or provide you a useful error message.

The idea of the coffee break is the following.

Some email servers don't like to be polled to often and lock the account for a 
brief period. I have seen this especially with yahoo account.

Have fun

Have not tried my iinet link
Am unable to close or put to sleep as Mail still active
Cannot close Mail as Quit Mail greyed over

Can anyone suggest a cause?

Prior to this I have running MYOB in Windows for a couple of hours

Re: Mail problem

[Daniel Kerr]

Agreed. Mail faults here too (for iinet). But my other email accounts all
work.
Couldn't see anything listed on their support page, but there's work
scheduled for later tonight,..so could be linked.
Or just a hiccup :o)

Kind Regards
Daniel

as Mail tries to check both of my iiNet mail accounts it is requesting

Re: Mail problem

[David Nicholas]

My mail problem is now fixed.  The iinet support system worked very well.  I 
haven't had to use support for a few years now - that's a plus for iinet, isn't 
it.  This morning I got straight through to someone in Sydney - I haven't had 
such an instant response since my first years with iinet back in the late 90s.  
I had to reinstall my Mail and then it worked.  The problem was irritating.  
The solution was very reassuring.

Re: Mail problem

[Brian Scott]

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is relevant to the troubles people have been  
experiencing - perhaps all ISPs are performing modem firmware upgrades.


I got this from Optus this morning ..

Optus is introducing the capability to upgrade the firmware in your  
DSL Direct modem remotely.


What is firmware?

Optus is introducing the capability to upgrade the firmware in your  
DSL Direct modem remotely.


What is firmware?

Firmware is the programme that makes your modem function and  
communicate between the Optus network and your computer. Modem  
manufacturers only release updated firmware as improvements and  
changes are needed. Updates are intended to improve the way modems  
communicate with our network, so it's key that you are using the most  
up to date firmware to maximise your modem's performance on our network.


This capability will allow Optus to improve the stability, security  
and performance of your modem by installing the latest firmware from  
your modem manufacturer directly to your modem.


The most common scenario where firmware would be upgraded is to  
address newly discovered security flaws or defects.


When Optus performs a remote upgrade you probably won't be aware of  
it. Your service will be interrupted for a few minutes, however we'll  
schedule upgrades at a time to minimise impact to your use of the  
Optus Broadband service.


If your modem uses the settings specified and recommended by Optus  
these will be restored after any upgrade. If you have custom settings  
in your modem these may be overwritten and you will need to restore  
them yourself.


Optus strongly recommends you take advantage of this great new  
capability. To participate you don't have to do anything. However, if  
you don't wish to participate in remote firmware updates you can opt- 
out here.


If you do choose to opt out Optus technical support will of course  
continue to offer the same customer focused support of your service  
and modem.


Regards,

The Optus team

Cheers

Brian

Re: iPad mail problem

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Barry

Another thing you could try is to turn off WiFi, Bluetooth (and 3G if you
have that model).
Basically turn off any type of internet connection. (A bit like Airplane
mode on the iPhone - I can't remember if it has that feature on the iPad and
can't check mine as it's out on demo,...)
Once it's all offline and not able to make a connection then see if you
can delete the message.

Another one to do it, is before reading the message go to the edit feature
in Mail and you can then tick it and choose delete. (This is the feature
used to delete multiple messages all at the same time).

Sorry can't give exact directions as can't do it here then write as I'm
doing it ;)
But hopefully that will give you enough to go on.

Oh, and cross fingers first :)

Kind Regards
Daniel

 Hi Barry,
 
 Depending on what Mail Account Server you are using, the details may be a
 little different.
 Find the option that keeps a copy on the server. where it is will depend on
 what email program you have.
 
 1) Go to advanced settings for your mail account
 2) uncheck trash on iPad
 3) check trash on server look near bottom
 
 If trash on iPad is checked, trashed mail stays on the iPad which
 essential means you keep seeing it in your emails.

 If you swipe your finger across the message horizontally. When you do that, 
 there is a Delete button showing up to the right of the message, if you

 Similarly I am unable to delete as freeze occurs when this message is 
tickedin edit.
I think I will leave it for to-day, it is becoming too frustrating and I am 
sure there are more constructive things I should be doing.

Cheers

Barry

 Hi Barry
 
 Another thing you could try is to turn off WiFi, Bluetooth (and 3G if you
 have that model).
 Basically turn off any type of internet connection. (A bit like Airplane
 mode on the iPhone - I can't remember if it has that feature on the iPad and
 can't check mine as it's out on demo,...)
 Once it's all offline and not able to make a connection then see if you
 can delete the message.
 
 Another one to do it, is before reading the message go to the edit feature
 in Mail and you can then tick it and choose delete. (This is the feature
 used to delete multiple messages all at the same time).
 
 Sorry can't give exact directions as can't do it here then write as I'm
 doing it ;)
 But hopefully that will give you enough to go on.
 
 Oh, and cross fingers first :)
 
 Kind Regards

 This fixes odd email problems on my iPhone.

 Hi Barry,
 
 Depending on what Mail Account Server you are using, the details may be a
 little different.
 Find the option that keeps a copy on the server. where it is will depend 
 on
 what email program you have.
 
 1) Go to advanced settings for your mail account
 2) uncheck trash on iPad
 3) check trash on server look near bottom
 
 If trash on iPad is checked, trashed mail stays on the iPad which
 essential means you keep seeing it in your emails.

Re: iPad mail problem

Hi Barry,

A big red box 'Delete Account' is right at the bottom of that window.

Re: iPad mail problem

[Barry Sexstone]

Ronni

One feels an absolute idiot when the answer is so obvious, I just hadn't 
scrolled down far enough.  On the plus side deleting and restoring the account 
got rid of the offending email.

Very many thanks for your patience I feel bad taking up your time over 
something I should have been able to manage myself.

Many thanks for all the others who contributed suggestions.

Thanks again

Re: iPad mail problem

Good evening All,

I had nothing to do with this problem, I do not have an iPad as yet!!,
but from where I sit it is so nice to see someone who appreciates the
help he has received and expresses his thanks openly for all to read.

That's what encourages people to contribute, knowing that no one is
taken for granted.

Good on you Barry, and congratulations to all contributors.

Re: iPad mail problem

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Barry,

Did this particular email message have an attachment?

If you swipe your finger across the message horizontally. When you do that, 
there is a Delete button showing up to the right of the message, if you click 
the delete button do you receive a message? If so what does it say?

Cheers,
Ronni

 Depending on what Mail Account Server you are using, the details may be a

 Find the option that keeps a copy on the server. where it is will depend on

 1) Go to advanced settings for your mail account
 2) uncheck trash on iPad 
 3) check trash on server look near bottom
 
 If trash on iPad is checked, trashed mail stays on the iPad which 
 essential means you keep seeing it in your emails.

Re: iPad mail problem

Have tried restarting - no luck
The message does have an attachment which was the sender's logo, as the screen 
freezes no swipes, taps etc work,  this is the major problem with this message.
I would like to delete this account from the iPad and then reinstall, however, 
there seems to be provision to add an account in mail settings but not to 
delete one.  Any advice?  Can it be done through iTunes?

Re: iPad mail problem

[Neil Houghton]

Hi Barry,

If I understand you correctly, the problem is with one specific email
message that is downloaded onto your iPad.

You want to delete it - but the action of selecting it (in order to delete
it) causes Mail to lock up.

I do not use Mail myself, but have encountered the same problem in Entourage
- where the problem was that trying to view the email caused the problem -
so it was solved by turning off the email preview.

See these previous WAMUG posts:

http://www.mail-archive.com/wamug@wamug.org.au/msg51486.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/wamug@wamug.org.au/msg51488.html


If you are having a similar problem, then there may be an equivalent
solution in Mail.


HTH

Re: iPad mail problem

Neil

Yes you have understood the problem.  I have tried setting preview to none 
but no luck.  I think I will just have to leave that message on the device, not 
a real problem but it would be nice to solve it.

Thanks for the input

Mail problem

[John Thompson]

This has more than likely been covered a zillion times before so I  
apologise before I start.


Mail (Ver 4.1) has for some reason stopped recording the RSS Apple Hot  
news items and the spinning activity wheel is no longer showing during  
activity, the RSS Mailbox has also disappeared from the top of the  
Mailbox list.  I have checked through the preferences and can find no  
reference to the problems.
Another problem is, occasionally, addresses become corrupted, not all  
the time but mainly when calling in a Group to send to.


Any advice would be much appreciated.

Re: Mail problem

[Ronda Brown]

Hello John,

Your exact problems have not been covered before that I know of.
In regard to loosing your RSS Apple Hot News, have you tried going to - File  
Add RSS Feeds  selecting it?

When you mention The spinning activity wheel do you mean the Spinning Beach 
Ball (which happens when Mail Hangs) or the Activity Bar that appears under 
Mail Activity when mail is sending or receiving?

Re: Your corrupted email addresses. When you see this happen, you could quit 
and relaunch Mail application.
You will likely find some files with the word unknown in the filename if you 
look in your ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ folder. 
This means that the database was rebuilt automatically, and the application 
unfortunately needs to relaunch to correctly read the new data.

Without knowing more of the way you upgraded to Snow Leopard and imported your 
email, I cannot give you anything more on why you are experiencing these 
problems.

I also notice you have not updated to OS X 10.6.2 which updates Mail to version 
4.2 (1077)
I think I would download and install the OS X 10.6.2 Combo Update. 
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosxv1062updatecombo.html
 
After installing it ... Repair Permissions!

This might repair the corruptions you are experiencing. Post back any results 
you have please.

Cheers,

Hi Michael,

Only this one account is not receiving mail, from the same ISP as  
others that are working perfectly on the G5?

You can send ok from this account?
The settings for this account are exactly the same as the other  
accounts? You have checked the correct Port  SSL is selected?
When you click on Get Mail for this account, what happens ... do you  
receive a message?
To see what is happening when you click Get Mail choose Window   
Activity Viewer (Command-0 [zero])


If you are completely sure every setting in the 'bad' account is the  
same as the other 'good' accounts with the same ISP, the only thing I  
can think 'might' be happening, only I cannot see it happening to the  
same account each time :-(

I take it the account is a POP account.

Mail may be exceeding a limit on the number of simultaneous  
connections set by your mail server.
This occurs most often when you check your email using more than one  
client, or on more than one machine at a time—though under some  
circumstances, Mail may attempt to open a second connection to a mail  
server before closing an earlier one.

IMAP supports multiple simultaneous connections, whereas POP does not.

Sorry I can't come up with any other suggestion at the moment.


Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Michael, I find this sometimes with email accounts. I have email  
accounts set to download and keep a copy on the server at the same  
time. With POP accounts that means it is safe to delete that account  
on a particular machine where it is not working, without deleting all  
my past emails. I find that if you set up the account as a brand new  
one it will usually work. It appears to be a bug within Mail rather  
than iinet. Something about the set up seems to get corrupted on a  
particular machine.


But I stress, this can only be safe with POP accounts with Mail set to  
leave a copy on the remote server when downloading. I do this so I can  
have the same emails on separate machines - similar to an IMAP account.

I suggest you change the password for the problematic email account at the ISP

Re: Mail problem

Many thanks Susan, David and Ronni for your suggestions.

It is definitely not an iiNet problem. Nor does it concern settings  
which have been checked, double-checked and re-checked.
I did indeed try removing the account and adding it again as a new  
account. Not only did this not work but I was then faced with the  
interesting learning curve of converting .emix files and resetting  
all the massages up to September 18.


I remain mightily puzzled.

Now things are getting really weird. This has always been a POP

Thanks Ronnie,

I'd like to say I did but I used CleanApp before I remembered the un-

suggested and removed Growl, however, I will leave it for a few days,  
until I am feeling brave again, and have another shot at installing V4.

Hi Adrian,

Pleased to hear you have Mail working again. Did you uninstall  
Safari 4 using the Safari4.0BetaUninstall.pkg?

That would have got rid of everything relating to Safari 4Beta.

I have not had any problems with using Safari 4. It's loads webpages  
heaps faster than Safari 3 and no problem with Mail.


The problem seems to be with current Growl extensions not being  
compatible with Safari 4's new WebKit rendering engine for reading  
HTML mail.


If you have Growl, remove them.
The places to look for the extensions are:

1. /Users/User/Library/Mail/Bundles
and
2. /Library/Mail/Bundles

There should be a folder called GrowlMail.mailbundle
Removing it should allow Mail to re-launch successfully.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Apple Mail problem

[Adrian Skehan]

Hi Stuart,


Just to reiterate my problem: I was having to enter the password for a  
secondary e-mail account every time I started Mail.


To you questions: did you (a) quit Mail and relaunch after first aid  
and (b) did you rebook the iMac after first aid?  YES but it did not  
fix the problem


On Rod Findlay's suggestion I delete any reference to the account in  
keychain, started Mail and entered the password checking the remember  
box.


That has fixed the problem, which I put up with for week and found  
very annoying.

Adrian

A friend with a G5 iMac and Tiger has a Mail problem.  No longer does

I have no model or version numbers to hand.

Hi Severin,

Without knowing what version of Mail I would suggest as a first step,  
try using the Rebuild Mailbox function on the account's Inbox mailbox.
All messages in the account's Inbox mailbox will disappear  
temporarily and the mailbox will be resynchronized with the server.  
Depending on how many messages are available in the account's Inbox  
mailbox and the number and size of message attachments, this can take  
a little time for the re-sync process to be 100% complete.


Another thing, the Mail Account's Server could have been down.

Cheers,

Ronni

Hi, if they look at the bottom of the window, there is a little dimple,
click on that, and the display window opens again. I just had this problem
yesterday! Cheers, Susan.

Re: Mail problem

[Neil Houghton]

Hi Severin,

I don't use mail myself - but I gave it a quick fire up to see if I
understood the problem.

One thing I noticed is unlike Entourage where:

when you drag the divider to change the relative size of the message
list/mail view windows it stops before you reach the bottom of the enclosing
window - so the message window never disappears

With mail you can, in fact, drag the divider right to the bottom so that
there is only one window visible (the message list) - so the first thing to
check is that the window is, in fact, divided into two halves - if not (ie
there is a double line with a dot in it at the bottom of the window) then
just drag the divider (looking like the bottom border) back up again to
reveal the mail view window.

Other than that, there doesn't seem to be the options in preferences to
select or deselect this option so I wouldn't know!

I hope the above makes some sense!!

Hope that helps

Cheers


Neil
