In using mail with my mackbook air with maverick, to open a message takes time as if the message is downloaded & its same every time I want to open the message from inbox.

WoW! I'm surprised by the speed you reply and how serious you are with your answers! Thank you very much guys!!!
Replying to Toad-Hall:
I have a proper mailing list created as the manual says. It's a small group of contacts that exist in the address book. I do not type them as CC I just write "clients" and before I finish the word the name of the list appears.
How can I stop Avast from scanning out going mail? It's the free version and I haven't found a real solution. I also tried to totally turn off the "mail shield" but I kept facing the same issues. However, I just turned it off and tried to send the mail, I didn't restart windows or thunderbird
The idea with ipage server was fantastic! It would never come to my mind!!! As far as I see, the limit is 250 mails per hour. I doubt if I have ever reached the 50% of it. I also don't reach the bandwith limits... Besides that, if I had exceeded the limit I would get multi responses that "mail was not delivered".
I want to thank you both for your excellent help so far. I'm sad to say that I still haven't solved the issue. When I made smaller lists, with the same addresses chosen from the address book I could send the messages, having a short delay. I would blame Avast but I tried the same on another laptop with my favourite NOD32 and had the same problem.
What else should I check? Should I focus on Avast?

How to create a folder (in unified folders) which contains all the messages of inboxes and outboxes

Hi, i've searched without success how to create a folder (in unified folders) which contains all the messages of inboxes and outboxes (as it exists in Windows Live Mail).
For me, it would be very useful to search in only one folder when i try to find something in sent and received mails.
Thank's

This is what Unified Folders does. I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to achieve.

Mail 4.1, Exchange, and Duplicate messages in inbox

Using Snow Leopard and Mail 4.1 to access an exchange account and a gmail account. The problem ONLY occurs in the Exchange account. My messages are all duplicating. Only in Mail are they duplicating. I've checked Outlook Web Access and Outlook on my windows machine - no duplicates there. Didn't start out this way, and the problem came once before, stopped, and now it has returned. If I delete one copy of the message, both messages get deleted. Is there someway to rebuild the mail inbox? or resync?
Also, tried creating a new folder on the exchange server, copying all messages from inbox to the new folder, then moving back. In the temp/new folder, the messages were single. After copying back to Inbox - they doubled again. And again, only in Mail. The msgs remain single in Outlook, OWA, iPhone, Blackberry.
UPDATE: I highlighted the exchange mailbox and went to MAILBOX > REBUILD. Erased everything but only in Mail. The messages are still on the Exchange server and can be seen by OWA, Outlook, iphone and blackberry. New messages are going to the Mail Exchange inbox but old messages are gone. Any way to get them back?

Thanks V.K.! So there is no chance for me to re upload all the messages from my mac to my yahoo inbox.
nope.
May I ask yahoo to that?
you can ask but they won't say anything different.
I could never have known that the default setting on mac's mail would be "remove copy from server after retrieving a message".
now, that's a valid point. this is not exactly advertised and mail setup assistant does not tell you anything about it. you can voice your concern to apple about this issue here
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
I wish apple had some kind of a solution for this.
there isn't anything you can do now. it's not up to apple at this point. you just can't upload messages to a POP email server. it does not matter what email client or what operating system you are using.
Thanks again

Reading message from inbox

I want to write a J2ME application which will read message from inbox.i used the following code to open fileconnection with inbox
FileConnection filecon = (FileConnection)
Connector.open("file:///c:/system/mail/directory");
I am using Nokia 6610i.I am getting the following error:"The requested protocol does not exist file:///c:/system/mail/directory"
Can anyone help me out?

Hi
If you want to be able to store data and then retrieve it, the you can use RMS, but if you want to get data already stored on your phone then you need the FileConnection API. There is no work around this as far as I know.

Outlook 2013: how force outlook to go always to the newest message in inbox folder?

Hi,
how is possible to force Outlook 2013 to go always to the first and newest message in inbox folder?
Actually Outlook always point to the current message selected for each folder.
Thanks!

Upon starting Outlook, it will always go to the first item in the folder. During your Outlook session, when you return to a folder, it will select your last selected message. You can't change this. Pressing the Home button on your keyboard will instantly
bring you back to the top.

Remove all message in Inbox?

Hi all!
Please help me? I have one question. I want remove all message in Inbox when I recreate account .How to do?

Hi,
BanhChuoi wrote:
Please help me? I have one question. I want remove all message in Inbox when I recreate account .How to do?Just the INBOX or do you want to remove all emails for the account?
If the latter then you can do this by running the following on the messaging server:
./mboxutil -d user/<uid>/INBOX
If the former, this isn't actually easy and would require deleting emails off disk and then running a reconstruct on the account.

How do I restore Mail messages to Inbox

While working with my ISP on a mail problem I deleted all of the messages from Inbox and Sent.
I maintain regular backups so I have the messages there. They are located at User/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/POP-(me)@pop-server. . . .
How do I restore them to Mail's Inbox and Sent respectively?
Thanks!
-Joe

Kurt,
Your answer put me on the right track but it would not work quite like you said. What I needed to do was import the InBox and the sent folders from the backup copy. This creates an imported mail folder containing the messages from the backup. Then from the Inbox and the Sent folders in the import folder I moved the messages into the main Inbox and sent folders.
On Both of my computers there is no Mail folder in the Home/Library. It definitely is located in the User/Library folder.
Thanks for your help getting me there!
-Joe

TS3276 mail messages in inbox gone! Could this be virus or malware?

Mail has been acting weird for almost one week. I have Comcast internet and use Apple Mail. Have not been able to receive messages, using Xfiniity Comcast online to check messages - I am able to send from Mail but not receive. Xfinity works fine. Tonight I checked emails on Mail and every message in inbox (message area) are blank. Address, subject etc are there messages are blank. I am freaked out.
ALSO - some weirdness and I am hearing about Malware issues.
HELP
Macbook Pro 17 Intel ducore 2.4G

Hi - in case there is anyone out there who has the same problem - mine got miraculously cured with the recent update of Mail. I only wish I hadn't spent upwards of 8 hours trying to fix something that was a software fault all along. Had I known this Apple, I wouldn't have wasted lots and lots my time trying to fix it...doh.

Connection 8.5 Bulk Edit Enable Unified Messaging (Single Inbox)

Running Unity Connection 8.5(1)SU1
I setup 1 user for Single Inbox (http to Exchange 2003 via WebDav) he's working great.
Now I want to enable Single Inbox for the remaining 345 subscribers. They are already LDAP integrated.We just moved from Unity Unified 7.0 (with Exchange 2003) to Unity Connection 8.5
How do I use Bulk Edit to enable the remaining subscriber for Unified Messaging/Single Inbox?
Jeff - would be great if COBRAS going from Unity Unfiied Messaging to Unity Connection Unified Messaging would automatically configure everything since it already knows the Exchange alias, etc.
I attached a sample Bulk Edit > Unified Messaging update that failed
"Failure Reason",subscriberalias,servicedisplayname,optionalserviceaccountid,umemailaddress,emailaddressusecorp,enablecalendar,enablemeeting,enablembxsynch,isprimarymeetingservice,logintype,userid,userprofilenumber
"Could not find a unified messaging accounts with columns: subscriberalias = torwh3, servicedisplayname = HAC-Exchange and optionalServiceAccountID: |",torwh3,HAC-Exchange,,[email protected],0,1,0,1,0,2,LAhrens,

Figured it out.I hope this helps.

HT201320 Have an 'other' email set up on iPhone 4s; cannot delete or move messages from inbox. Help?

Have an 'other' email set up on iPhone 4s; cannot delete or move messages from inbox. Help?

Try resetting the iPhone,
Reset your iPhone by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPhone will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
If the does not work then delete that email account and set it up again,
Settings > Mail > select the account > delete account.
Take a note of the account settings before doing this to help you set it up again.

8830..Moving e-mail messages from Inbox to other folder

On my 8830...When I move e-mail messages from my Inbox to a different folder (under Inbox), they disappear totally from my laptop e-mail rather than mirroring what I did on my BlackBerry. On the flip side, if I move messages from my Inbox to another folder on my laptop, it does mirror on my BlackBerry. My e-mail is Outlook 2003, running on my company's Microsoft Exchange Server. Please help.

Since you have folders under your Inbox, I can only assume you're on a BES (BlackBerry Enterprise Server) setup receiving your Corporate email. If that's not the case, I can't figure out how you got folders under your Inbox, and have NO IDEA how you're getting the results you're getting as BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) email accounts can't have folders!
You most likely don't have reconciliation enabled for the folders you're moving your email to.
Go into Messages, hit the [Menu] button and select Options --> Email Settings. Hit the [Menu] button and select Folder Redirection.
You should see your Mailbox at the top with a + to the left of it. Highlight that line, hit [Menu] --> Expand to display the main folders under your Mailbox. Your Inbox should appear with a Box next to it either checked or filled in.
Highlight Inbox, and again hit [Menu] --> Expand to display the folders under your Inbox. All the folders under your Inbox, and the boxes are probably unchecked or not "filled in". Scroll to the folders you want reconciled with your BlackBerry and hit [Space] to check or fill the box next to it. Use [Menu] --> Expand if there's a + to the left of the box to expand subfolders.
Once all the folders you want reconciled are checked or filled, hit [Esc] and save.
Now your email won't dissappear when you move it! You should also notice in the Messages list that email in folders other than your Inbox have a folder icon rather than an Envelope icon.
And before you ask... The BlackBerry does NOT SYNCHRONIZE, it Reconciles. Email is pushed to the device ONCE, and only changes to the status of messages are transmitted after that. Moves will only be reflected after you've turned Reconciliation on for a given folder. BTW - emails you moved that disappeared should have been in your Deleted Items folder.
Reconciliation rather than Synchronization saves enormously on data transmission ($) as well as Battery life. Believe me - we have both BlackBerries (Big Wigs only) and Windows Mobile (the rest of the 25,000 peons) devices at my company, and the most common complaint about the Windows devices is battery life, and HUGE costs when the device is overseas!

Cannot delete messages from inbox, cannot move messages out of inbox, message do not copy to "sent" or "draft"

The following problems occur:
- cannot delete messages,
- cannot move messages out of inbox,
- messages do not copy "sent"
- messages cannot be saved to "draft"
This applies to imap and to gmail accounts.
The following has not helped:
- compact trash and other folder
- deinstall and reinstall TB 31.4.
- archive profile with mozbackup and replace profile from archive after reinstall of TB.
- deinstall and reinstall TB 31.3 downgraded
- delete all folders and files with "trash*" in the file name (all IMAP)
- delete all files of 1 mail account completely in the TB profile and resync from server (IMAP)
This might coincide with these system changes:
- upgrade to TB 31.4.
- some of these email accounts were installed on ios8 iphone.
Not sure if the problems had already started before these 2 occurrences.
Any help is appreciated to solve this.
Thanks!

What type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)? If POP, what are your Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings?
You may be able to get rid of those messages in Mail doing Edit > Cut (⌘X) (for best results do it with one message or just a few at a time), but you should remove them from the server first if they’re still there.
Does this account allow web access? If not, you may find the Account Info window useful to solve this problem — choose Get Info (⌘I) from the Action menu (gear icon) located below the mailboxes list in the main Mail window.

Mail: Clicking a message in Inbox should open it in a separate window (not just in lower pane). This stopped working after an automatic update of OS(10.6.8). Suggestions?

Before updating software (10.6.8), in Mail, clicking a message in the inbox caused the message to appear in its own separate window-- not just in the pane below the inbox. I'm not sure why this function is no longer available. I guess I could delete Preferences (where?) and see if that does it. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Nick

Before updating software (10.6.8), in Mail, clicking a message in the inbox caused the message to appear in its own separate window-- not just in the pane below the inbox.
Uh…no it didn't. Double-clicking a message would open it in a new window. Regardless of whether you have the message pane visible, you still have to double-click the message if you want it to open in it's own message window.
I guess I could delete Preferences (where?) and see if that does it.
No, you can't do that; not unless you want to say bye-bye to all your email. Don't even think about messing around with things unless you know what you're doing, and the consequences.

Lost mail messages from inbox and drafts

I have lost all my previous inbox messages and drafts after resetting my account in Mail Preferences after a server problem. Is it because I may have renamed my account? I can't remember what I called my POP account before.
How do I recover my inbox messages or my old 'account' name.(Will that make them reappear?)
Have deleted messages from server so can't go back to there.
Problem started when someone sent me a huge music file which filled up everything.
It's driving I mad! Is there any help out there? Thanks. TW
