Apple Mail Client - No Messages in Sent Mailbox

I am using the Apple Mail client with Yahoo! IMAP. For some reason, sent messages no longer appear in the Sent Mailbox. Why is that?

Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

Apple Mail shows duplicate message in Sent mailbox - HOW TO FIX IT?

I have sent a message with Apple Mail 7.3 on Mac with OS X Mavericks 10.9.3, and it shows DUPLICATED in the Sent mailbox of Mail. I mean, two entries with the very same message inside are displayed, yet, as said, I only sent it once! I am using POP.
Selecting "Mailbox - Rebuild", quitting and opening Mail, repairing permissions with Apple Disk Utility, restarting the Mac, and even resetting the PRAM does not fix it.
I have seen the following article, but cannot find the "MessageSorting.plist" in Mavericks that it indicates:
How to Fix Duplicate Emails Sent From Apple Email
http://www.ehow.com/how_12135498_fix-duplicate-emails-sent-apple-email.html
Any idea on how to prevent this duplication behavior (beyond deleting one of such messages, which, of course, I can do); I mean, to fixing whatever is corrupted and prevent such behavior happening again in the future?
What is the equivalent of "MessageSorting.plist" in Mavericks to do what indicates the above article?
Thanks.

I have exactly the same problem. Didn't find a solution yet.

In apple mail client, is it possible to open an email sent to me, make comments on it and send the amended email back to the sender?

No. Make your comments in your reply and send that.

Vonage email notifications and Apple Mail client

Vonage provides a very nice feature in which, as soon as someone leaves a voice mail message, Vonage sends out an email notification to up to five different email addresses, in addition to sending a text message to a cell phone alerting you that someone has left you a voice message on your Vonage phone. Besides getting just a text-based email notification, you can also opt to have Vonage attach a .WAV file to the email it sends to those email accounts you list in your account settings page on the Vonage web site. I think this is a great feature, because I have my iPhone set up to receive the text message, and I also configured my email accounts to receive the email notifications together with the attached .WAV file, so I can listen to the recorded voice mail messages right on the iPhone, without having to dial in to a Vonage number, or go to the Vonage web site to listen to the voice mail via a computer.
While the Vonage email notifications with the attached .WAV files arrive just fine in my mac.com and my aol.com email accounts, those same email messages are NOT being sent to my the roadrunner.com email account provided by Time-Warner cable, my Internet Service Provider.
When I brought this matter up the tech support people at Vonage, they theorized that the roadunner server might be blocking receipt of the emails sent by the Vonage server. However, the problem does not seem to be related to roadrunner.com, because those email messages actually do reside on the roadrunner server. I can see them all right, but only if I use a browser and check my messages via their Web Mail application. For some mysterious reason, my Apple Mail client is NOT receiving those messages, and I have no clue why that would be so.
Does anybody know what is going on here? Shouldn't Apple Mail be able to retrieve all the messages on the roadruner server? What could prevent Apple Mail from being able to do that? And, is there anything I can do to make those email notifications —with their attached .WAV files—show up in my Inbox in Apple Mail?
Since I thankfully receiving those email notifications at my mac.com and my aol.com accounts, this is not a mission-critical issue for me. It is merely one of one technical curiosity.

To close out this thread, about all I can say is that the issue does not seem to be related to Apple software or to my Internet Service Provider. It is a Vonage issue that can only be fixed by calling Vonage tech support and getting their programmer/technicians to do whatever it is that they to do on their end to configure their Vonage email notifications to function correctly. If something sneezes, as it did in regards to my account, then Vonage tech support is the first place to call.
I'll consider this issue "answered" now.

Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

From reports on this site, Yahoo mail doesn't work reliably with Mail. The following steps may help.
Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Can I copy emails between an IMAP account and an Exchange account, via Apple Mail client?

If I have an IMAP account configured in my Apple Mail client profile, and then I also add an Exchange 2010 Server account to that same profile, can I use the Apple Mail client to copy folders and messages from my IMAP account, into my mail store on the Exchange Server account?

Pop mail accounts must be set up to 'leave messages on the server'.
check this before using.
* Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
or
* menu icon > Options > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
select: 'leave messages on the server'
optional: select: 'for at most xx days' this will delete anything older than specified number of days select 'Until I delete them' when you delete an email it will be deleted off the server.
click on Ok to save settings.
Pop mail accounts only look at Inbox and download whatever has not been previously downloaded regardless of whether it has been read or not. They cannot access nor download from any other folder on the server.
If you wanted to download emails in other fodlers, you would have to move emails into the Inbox in order to download them and this may not be very practical in your situation.
What you can do is synchronize your IMAP folders to get a copy downloaded to your IMAP mail account.
Then go into 'offline' mode to stop any further synchronizing as synchronized folders do get updated.
MozBackup tool could now be used to backup the Profile as synchronising created mbox files which contain emails.
You can also do the following to get a copy outside of the IMAP mail account:
Create the same folders in 'Local Folders'.
Then right click on email and 'copy to' and select Local Folders and the folder you require.
Putting a copy in Local Folders means these emails are also on your computer and they are not influenced by anything you do in the IMAP folders.
You would need to backup emails in these folders.

ICloud mail server - Unable To Send With Apple Mail client

OS X 10.10.2
Mail v 8.2
iCloud mail
I am still able to receive messages but suddenly unable to send. Messages stay stuck in Outbox.
Mail Connection Doctor reports no problems:
If I setup MS Outlook for Mac 2011 with this iCloud account, I am able to send and receive like a champ.
Once it starts working, is there a way to change the outgoing mail server to use SSL, i.e., turn SSL to "ON" ?

Yes, I did. It doesn't show up in the logs because, I'm unable to send a message - it goes to the outbox immediately. And this led me to the conclusion below.
And by the way, I did get in touch with Apple Support who went through a number of troubleshooting scripts (including trying to use GMail's mail servers) and ultimately had me reinstall OS X from scratch. None of this worked.
Now this problem of being unable to send mail via my iCloud account, from the Apple Mail client, started only around the end of Feb. What I finally figured was that iCloud mail was using random ports on my machine to invoke its SMTP port. Everytime I would disable the firewall on my router completely, iCloud mail was able to send just fine. Recall that incoming was (and still is) working fine. Anyway, I installed wireshark to ID the ports that were being used when the firewall was down. I set up triggers on my router to open these up, turned on the firewall, but it just isn't working. I will have to play around with wireshark and see if I can figure out what ports need to be opened. Unless you or someone else knows. If I figure it out, I will post it here. Mind you, that I need to figure out not only the source ports that need to access port 587 but also what the real target port is (because I don't think it is just 587 as Apple claims).
By the by, when I asked the Apple Technician (some guy who I was transferred to after 3 other people - the one who asked me to reinstall Yosemite) if there was a way to change the outgoing mail server to use SSL, i.e., turn SSL to "ON", he said no there wasn't and why would one need to secure the traffic to Apple's SMTP server anyway? Seriously?

Apple Mail clients not retrieving emails properly over IMAP

I posted this in Tiger Mail but no responses; hopefully someone here has some knowledge of this issue.
I'm testing an email server on 10.5 with IMAP.
Here's my setup all using the same user IMAP account.
1 Outlook 2007
1 Thunderbird (on Vista Business)
2 Mail 2.1.3 on 2 different 10.4.11 Apples (one Mac Mini and one MacBook Pro 17")
1 iPhone
When sending emails to this user account, all the non-Apple Mail clients receive them instantly or after I force a 'Send/Receive' command without any problems.
The 2 Apple Mail clients do not receive the new emails on their own OR with 'Get Mail' command OR the 'Synchronize' command. They flat out refuse to receive new emails.
When I close and reopen the Apple mail clients, they do receive the new emails immediately. OR if I select an existing mail message in the view, then they receive the new emails.
Totally weird but definitely an Apple Mail issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

After trying to isolate every variable, I created a new test account and deleted the existing one I had been using. Problem solved - it works great now!
For some reason, the original user account had some type of corruption.

Synchronisation problems between apple mail client on a MacBook Pro and Gmail

I am having synchronisation problems between apple mail client and gmail on the MacBook Pro, but no similar problems on the ipad and iphone. My mail is not being collected by the aplle mail client on the laptop, and now all my inbox for my gmail account has disappeared, although the Archive and sub folders under "Google" are still showing.
This is an intermittent problem.
I have previousy re-built the mailbox and solved the problem, but there must be something more fundamental going on, as the problem has occurred again.
Anyone have any tips?

Sorry, but no. POP3 versus IMAP has nothing to do with keeping spam off your computer. Your ISP should be doing its filtering before the mail reached the mail server in either case, and your Mac would be doing its filtering after downloading the mail from the mail server in either case. (Your iPad does no filtering at all.)

Since iOS 8.1.2 upgrade problems with yahoo mail via apple mail client

Since the upgrade to iOS 8.1.2 on my iPad I'm having issues with my yahoo mail account when using the apple mail client. I can send emails but cannot receive them. When I use the yahoo mail app there is no problem Sending or receiving. I have deleted and reinstalled my yahoo email account from the apple mail client. I have checked the wifi by changing between wifi hotspots. I have also restarted the iPad as well as resetting. None of these actions have resolved the problem. would appreciate any assistance that can be provided.

Do you use two-step verification for your Yahoo! account? If yes, you need an app-specific password.
If no, make sure your password is already entered in the "Outgoing Mail Server" in the Settings app.

TS4208 Apple Mail client no longer marks my mail as read on all my iOS devices. If I read a email on my iPhone and later open Mail on my iPad, the iPad still shows the email as unread.This changed recently, perhaps after iOS7 upgrade. Did I miss a setting

Apple Mail client no longer marks my mail as read on all my iOS devices. If I read a email on my iPhone and later open Mail on my iPad, the iPad still shows the email as unread.This changed recently, perhaps after iOS7 upgrade. Did I miss a setting? All mail account are IMA. iCloud is set to push, business mail is set to fetch every 15 minutes.

Read thier own support document on the subject then
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1795
This document was written as an answer to all those who complained about it as paying MobileMe users
They ignored us then and when MobileMe became iCloud they ignored us again, and just carried on with a system that will not update the e-mail read status across all devices
That's how it works, and like you 1000's of loyal Apple users cant believe it either but there you go

10.6.7 apple mail - search 'entire message' is greyed out

10.6.7 apple mail - search 'entire message' is greyed out
can't use it - other choices ok
was working yesterday...
hw do I get it back?

See the discussions at:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15146088#15146088
Can be temporary with POP perhaps, but should work. With IMAP, it is required that copies of messages be kept for local searching.
More info, please.

Apple Mail Client not saving server settings for iCloud?

I am trying to add my iCloud email to the Apple mail client.
As I work through the wizard to setup all the necessary entries inclduing the for the Incoming and outgoing mail settings but when the account is finally created in the
Mail client, the incoming mail server settings are not set and the box they are shown in is not available for editing.
The mail client vs is 6.6
I have tried this several times with the same end result, any help appreciated????

You don't manually add your iCloud email account using Mountain Lion. Instead, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your iCloud account and check Mail. This will automatically add the account with the proper settings.

Why does my Apple Mail insert old messages into the body of new emails?

Why does my Apple Mail insert old messages into the body of new emails? The correct sender's name will appear in the "From" column, but an old message from a different sender in the body. This happens randomly. I have an iMac OSX 10.6.8. I recently had the hard drive cleaned, but Apple Mail seemed to be running fine when I set it up again. Could this be a virus? What should I do about it? Thanks for any insights!

Thanks. While you were replying to my question, I went into notifications and figured
it out. Appreciate the quick response!
