My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

If you have a backup, you can restore the e-mails. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Library/Mail/V2.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Thunderbird keeps downloading the same messages even after deleting from trash folder

Also get this message no when emailing one of my groups " is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the e-mail."

Hello, could you please provide the following information?
* What type of email account is it (IMAP or POP)?
* Who is the email provider (GMail, other webmail, self-hosted..)?
Please consider creating a new thread about the groups email issue. Having one thread per question makes it easier to answer, read and search for them.
Doing so will also allow the Mozilla volunteers to give you solutions that are more helpful to you. This may help them to solve your problem faster and more efficiently.
Thank you!

Why does firefox call IP 208.53.130.221 on startup? Even with blank page? And keeps trying the same address even after is shut down? No other browsers does it!

I can see it via my firewall log; checked for malware, nothing found. It's like Firefox is trying to report somewhere, and it's always the same IP address. I even stopped using firefox all together. Opera doesn't display the same problem, neither does the IE, so this is firefox related.
Even though I have 3.5.2 now, this is a roll back from the later version - I thought it might be related to later updates, but no, 3.5.2 does the same thing.

It's the forums that make the image tiny, if you do a right-click > copy shortcut, you can then paste it into a new tab, which will let you see the full size image. It's a 3360x1050 image, maybe a bit big for the forums.
Basically though, the left image is IE, and that shows an error box. The centre image is Opera, and that shows an empty screen. The right image is FF, and that is how it should look.
If it's a machine specific error, then I can't work out why it is on several machines in my house... very odd.

Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot? I get a gray "curtain" over the start up screen saying I need to restart my computer but it won't restart. I just keep getting the same message every time.

Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot? I get a gray "curtain" over the light gray start up screen with a message that I need to restart my computer and to hold the power button until it powers off and then press the power button again to restart. It just does this over and over again and won't restart.

Yeah, as necronym stated, it is a hardware issue and more than likely a RAM problem. Disconnect everything from the computer except keyboard and mouse and try again. If it still happens try removing one and/or swapping your RAM sticks over. Keep trying until you have eliminated all possible combinations. Just put a mark on one RAM stick so you know what have tried. If it still fails to boot properly you should probably replace your RAM, but that is no guarantee of success. Have a look at this link for more info on a Kernel Panic.

Mail keeps downloading the same message severytime iit logs into the server

Hi,
I have several acocunts all retrieving mail from various servers.
Yesterday changed a configuration from one server to stop automatically forwarding e-mail to another server and, instead, just have mail retrieve the messages directly from that box.
Now, for some inexplicable reason, mail keeps retriving the same messages stored on each server everytime it logs in. I know have up to 4 - 6 copies of some messages in both mail boxes for these two servers. I have re-examined all my settings and they are as they should be.
I fanally trashed all old mail on the servers (there was over 1500 from the past week on one which was continuosly being downloaded.)
What could possible be causing it? How do I fix it?
Thanks.

Never mind about the Junk Folder missing. I found out about that.
Still receiving the duplicate e-mails though.
Thanks for your help. Please read comments below.
Hi Matthew.
For POP accounts, Mail uses a file within the
account
folder to keep track of which messages have
already
been downloaded. That file may have become corrupt
or
the data stored there may have become invalid for
some reason.
You may try deleting that file so that Mail
creates
it anew, but that will also cause Mail to treat
everything still on the server as if new
and
try to download it again:
1. Quit Mail.
2. In the Finder, go to the
~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/
account folder.
3. Locate one or two files named
MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded and move them
to
the Trash. Mail 1.x used
MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded
to keep track of which messages had already been
downloaded. Mail 2.x uses
MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 for the same
purpose.
Alternatively, you may try clicking Remove
now
in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced, which
should both remove from the server the messages
that
Mail thinks have already been downloaded and reset
MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded.
I tried both of these messages. No luck. I finally
jsut set one of the accounts to immediately delete
the message once it has retrieved it from the server,
though that takes away a certain piece of mind that
it exists in two places at least for a weel.
Anyway. Niw my Junk mail folder has disappeared. I
had it set to train and this morning when I opened
mai it asked if I wanted it to change to automatic.
I said yes and went about looking at new mails.
There qere a lot of junk mail not beeing tagged as I
began to use command-shift-j to mark this messages,
the first few turned brown as they should. The, all
of a sudden, messages started disappearing. When I
looked for the Junk Mail folder on the left, it was
gone! I still have no idea where it is. I spent the
afternoon backing up an d running Disk Warrior. But
Junk didn't return. Any clues? (Possibly this
should be a new thread)
BTW, what are your Preferences > Accounts >
Advanced > Remove copy from server settings?
I had them set to be removed after a week. No I have
one removing them as they are retrieved. This
computer's been running like that for 3 years. Not
sure gremlin has gotten into the works but it's
frustrating as ****.
Note: For those not familiarized with
the
~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home
folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library
folder
within the user’s home folder.

HT1491 On both my iPhone & My iPad I keep getting the same message. Cannot connect to iTunes Store. I can connect on my Mac. Until the other day I have always been able to connect on both iPad & iPhone.

All of a sudden I keep getting the same message on both my Iphone and Ipad. (Cannot connect to Itunes Store.) (OK)
I am able to connect on my Mac. My Password is correct.

Hi Velvalee,
While there may not be specific information about that error, here is an article of steps for troubleshooting connectivity issues with the iTunes store:

Sometimes , when I open ITunes Radio, an ad saying that I'm listening to iTunes Radio over and over and I don't get to listen to music. Usually other stations work but select stations just keep repeating the same ad. Why is this?

Hi, Since updating to 10.7.2 I cannot make any changes to my web site. I just keep getting the same stupid message asking if I have an account even though I am already logged in. Any thoughts. Thanks

Go and log out of your MobileMe account and then try logging back in again with a dummy username and password. This can help clear it and then just log back in again with your normal username and password.
Note though that iWeb does not require a password or username to use it - this is MobileMe.
Also, start thinking about MobileMe alternatives before you are forced to in June.

You can change the settings in Security & Privacy to "Anywhere"...
That should work... as to whether the printer driver will work, that's another question.
Good luck,

How to send the same message to two SMTP servers

hi,
I need to send a message to two different SMTP servers.
I want to avoid the creation of new MimeMessage with a new Session.
the only way I've found was to keep a reference to the Properties instance that was used in the Session creation, and modify its "mail.smtp.host" property.
Is there another way? I must be missing something.
thanks,
ofer

hi,
I've already found the solution, so I'll post it here.
first I'll explain the purpose:
I needed to send the same message to a normal email server, and (for some of the recipients) to a special SMTP server that is on a different machine.
the following code demonstrate the solution.
thanks for your help.
ofer
----------code---------------
public class MultipleSendTest {
private final static Session server1 = createSession("somesmtp_server.com");
private final static Session _server2 = createSession("another_smtp_server.com");
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
//create the message
MimeMessage m = new MimeMessage(_server1);
m.setText("body text");
m.addRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, "[email protected]");
m.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
//send
send(m, _server1);
send(m, _server2);
private static void send(MimeMessage message, Session session) {
//for logging only
String host = session.getProperty("mail.smtp.host");
try {
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect();
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
System.out.println("sent to " + host);
transport.close();
} catch (MessagingException e) {
System.out.println("failed to send to " + host);
private static Session createSession(String host) {
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", host);
return Session.getInstance(properties);

Send the same message to two receivers with some time difference..

Hi
I want to send the same message to Two receivers with the slight time difference.. becuase but not at the same time.. if the same time means.. just we can specify the two receivers in the one receiver determination..
but if i want to send the same message to Two reveivers with the time difference means..(after sending the message to first receiver.. after some time gap.. i need to send the message to second receiver..
this type of scenarios how can we do.. is it possible to do with out BPM... please suggest me the solution..
Thanks
Jain .P

Hi Jain,
With BPM you can easily do it.
i am giving you the steps:
1)first add a receive strep to get your message
2)then, put a receiver determination step with a multiline receiver container element assigned to its Receivers property.
3)then, put a block in dynamic mode(ie. ForEach/ParForEach mode) and assign the multiline receiver container element to its multiline element and assign a simple(single line) receiver container element to its current line property.
4) add a send step within the block, choose Receivers List in its Receiver From property and choose the current line receiver element in its Receivers property.
5) then add a wait step in the BPM, in its type select Wait Specified Time Period and then mention the duration in your desired time unit.

ITunes keeps providing a message that iPod is currupted. I have restored the iPod and reloaded iTunes but keep getting the same message that the iPod is currupted.

iTunes keeps giving me the message that my iPod is currupted. I have restored the iPod and reloaded iTunes but keep getting the same message. What's weird is that my iPod will connect to another PC and that my PC will connect to my daughter's iTouch. Any ideas? My iPod was working with my PC for years and just started getting this error.

According to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694

TS1702 App store keeps telling me my iPad settings have to be set to enable cookies to download apps. The setting is done, but why do I keep getting the same message to change the settings?

I'm just setting up my new iPad. I tried to download an app for the first time but kept getting a notice that said cookies have to be enabled. I have followed the directions on enabling cookies, but I keep getting the same message when I try to download the app.

Is this how you do it?
