Apple Mail: Cannot receive mail from a specific sender.

Mail from a long-time correspondent does not show up in my In Box. Nor in the Junk Mail Box.
Sender sends e-mail to me to several of my addresses, but still no luck.
Any ideas will be appreciated!

Hi Edward, do you have any rules setup?
If you use a browser & go to your WebMail site are they showing there?
Are these POP or IMAP accounts?
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup

Cannot receive emails from a specific sender

attempting to receive emails from a email address i.e. [email protected] Hav tried adding contact lists and have attempted changing filters in Apple mail, but still not getting the email . How can I solve this?

Check and see if the e-mail is on the e-mail provider's web site. It may be getting rejected by the e-mail provider.

TS3276 What if you're not receiving email from a specific sender?

For some reason, I cannot receive email from a specific sender. I can send it to her, if she sends it back, I do not receive it.
If she sent to four people, and I was one of them, I won't receive email but others will and if the others try to forward that email
to me, I won't receive it but I will receive separate emals from them. Why is this?

Have you checked you junk folder on the computer. Also, check spam folders at your email provider's website. Also check any settings that may exclude this sender.
If the sender in your Address Book. Make sure they are so they will be excluded from junk filtering.
Also, check any rules that could delete or junk message from this sender or content it may contain.

Did you try to use the keyboard to paste?
* Copy: Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Insert
* Paste: Ctrl+V or Shift+Insert
* Cut: Ctrl+X or Shift+Delete
Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text on the "Compose New Mail page" there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).<br />

HT1277 Help-i am not recieving e-mails from a specific sender, even after adding them to my contacts.

I am not recieving messages from a specific sender. I have added to my contacts, but nothing is recieved.

Tell us more.
Was it once working and then failed, or has it never worked?
When you try to send mail, do you get an error message, or does the message just sit in the outbox?
What steps have you already take to resolve this, and what results have you achieved?
For example, did you check with bellnet.ca administrators or knowledgebase to see what the proper outbound SMTP server address and settings are, then verify the contents of Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > {bellnetaccount} > Account > Advanced > Mail > Outgoing Mail Server > SMTP > Primary Server > {servername} match that?
(Yes, those settings are buried deep and hard to find at this point. It would have been easier to set them on the initial creation of the account.)

Limiting mail from a specific sender

Is there a way to tell mail to keep only the most recent email from a specific sender? Can this be automated?

And, I just figured it out with a particular combination of mail rules.

Mail app crashes when receiving email from a particular sender

HI All,
Here is a problem I'm facing, Mail App crashes while receiving email from a particular sender. I'm testing our new Email Hosting solution "Rackspace" and it works fine with all other Email clients or on deveices (Android, Windows Phone & Blackbarry) but on Iphone 4s (IOS 6.1.4, i guess) it crashes the Mail App.
The email I'm using is sending over to an email at ttv-asia.com domain. The user of ttv-asia.com is based in China and just to see if the problem is with the Iphone, I've tested the Iphone's Mail App in Hong Kong and it works normal.
So now... Im confused and have no Idea on how ro fix this.

Sorted, it seems that livemail configured for exchange and having Google premier for exchange, results in the mail app on the iPhone crashing, when selecting an email in the Google exchange mail box, then calling up the folders , it crashes. switched off livemail mail, worked fine.
Weird.
Google vs Microsoft, with a little help from Apple ???????????

Routing messages from a specific sender to a folder in Mail

Can I have Mail messages from a specific sender sent or copied to a dedicated folder automatically?
Thanks.

Hi Edward,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can use rules in Mail to do exactly that. See this article for more information:

Try looking in your User folder.
Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Mail/V2
If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I have to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

<Edited by Host>

I am soooooooooooo confused now. Ok, if you are having problems with Yahoo Mail and Gmail but you do not use Apple's Mail you need to do the following:
1 - Post in Yahoo's Mail forums and/or contact their tech support.
2 - Post in Gmails forums and/or contact their tech support.
Neither of the above are Apple's products.

Hi,
Do you mean you are not getting SMS text messages now ?
If so start here
Follow the Account management options until you are offered and email contact.
Explain the issue via email as only someone in Support can now remove your iPhone Number from iMessages if it has not "de-registered" itself correctly.

When exporting and then importing Apple Mail from one mac to another I get "Some messages could not be imported. Partially imported mailbox will be labeled IMPORT" . That mailbox does not appear.

Any help would be welcome

This is a bug in Mail. The mailbox archiving function does not include attachments, which gives the error with the import. To workaround this you can create a mailbox in Mail and copy to it all emails you want to export. Then go in Finder to [user]/Library/Mail/Mailboxes en select the created mailbox. Copy this to the public directory of your other mac. Then start Mail on that other mac and import the mailbox from the public directory. Should work now.

I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?

Lets take first issue first: Apple does not charge a customer to 'keep' iPad access. That does not happen at apple. If you were billed and charged that amount of money from someone you were speaking to over the phone, you were not talking with Apple support. If you need to speak with apple support you are free to call them at 800MYAPPLE and they will talk to you for no more money than 19.00/ support event.
Please read this article to asssit with imessage and factime troubleshooting.

I'm sorry you have this happen to you - that being charged fraudulently for a non rendered service.
Good luck to you Friend.
