Apple Mail seems to stall when sending messages

I've had a problem for a few days now with my Apple mail. When I compose and send a message, it seems to stall and stays in my Outbox for ages. The spiral wheel spins continuously but the message doesn't get sent. In a few cases, the mail has taken 24 hours to send. I called my ISP and they said all my connections were fine - and that it was a problem with Apple mail.

+VERY FRUSTRATING!!! FIX THIS APPLE!+
Unfortunately, these are user to user forums and no one from Apple will be replying to you. Also, please do not use all caps - it is considered shouting. And, since very few users are reporting this problem, it would appear to have something to do with your setups rather than a problem Apple needs to fix.
For both of you: There is obviously some problem with your software or hardware; you might want to try either to delete your mail account and recreate it (in Mail -> Preferences) and/or quite Mail and go to Users -> Library -> Preferences and delete this file: com.apple.Mail.plist. Please note: doing so will necessitate recreation/set up of Mail, so it would be advisable to take screen shots of all of your settings in your account(s) so you can easily copy them if necessary.

Apple Mail and gmail bug when sending attachment?

Hi,
And now for my own Mail question. Wondering if others have run into this bug?
Mac OS 10.5 MacBook Pro.
There seems to be a bug when trying to send Mail with an attachment (via a gmail account).
Over and over, Mail just hangs there.
But it works when:
1. Using Mail, the same email can be sent when I Remove the attachment.
2. Skipping Mail, and using gmail itself, the email and attachment are sent within seconds.
2. Email with attachment can also be sent from another email service (such as Earthlink).
Only when I am using Apple Mail, sending via gmail, With an attachment, is there a hitch.
Thanks again for your attention,
- Ross

Perhaps this problem is confined to Mail 3.0 and later, and Leopard. I cannot send attachments using gmail as the smtp server. I can log in to my gmail account, download an attachment, and send, with no problem as Ross has experienced. I get an eternal hang when trying to send the same message with an attachment from Mail. Any solutions yet? Thanks!

Mail 2.0 crashing when sending message and opening mailbox

I've had a weird problem for a few weeks now that I've finally replicated.
I have about 7 accounts that are all active. Mail stops responding when I compose a message and click "send" and then go to another mailbox. It starts to open the mailbox, and starts to send the message (sometimes completing the send), but hangs in the Beach Ball of Death state. I force quit, and reopen. The mailbox selected opens with no problem, and then the message sends (sometimes twice if it actually completed before the crash.)
I have tried reducing the mailbox sizes of every inbox and outbox involved to almost nothing, rebuilding indexes, removing attachments, etc. Nothing seems to work.
iBook G4 12" Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Ohhhhh, if you have something to fix it... I'd be most grateful! Mailtags rocks my world, and I'd be lost without it.
(for those who might be reading this post for reference -- here's what we're talking about: http://www.indev.ca/MailTags.html )
Will you post a reply to this thread when the update is out, so I can get it?

Strange characters when sending messages in Mail 2.1.2

When sending messages from Mail 2.1.2 , some of the recipients get strange characters when opening my messages
I use a french keyboard with ponctuations that appears to the recipients as black diamond with ponctuation marks in the middle.
Is it something from my end?

Here is some info on the problem. Sending plain text instead of rich text is the easiest thing to try.

Mail with multiple gmail accounts sending messages from wrong email, other than the one i select

mail with multiple gmail accounts sending messages from wrong email, other than the one i select:
i'm using mail on osx 10.7 with multiple gmail accounts. when i create an email, i check to be sure i'm sending/replying from the correct account. after i send it, somehow it actually sends it from a different account, other than the one i've selected "from." this is evidenced by the reply email i receive. how can i fix this?
in preferences, i have "send new messages from : account of selected mailbox"

From the Mail menu bar, select
          Mail ▹ Preferences...
The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
          Send new messages from:
choose
          Account of selected mailbox
Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
          Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
If there's only one server in the menu, select
          Edit SMTP Server List...
and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
          Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar.

My apple mail is receiving my outlook/ company messages, but not gmail. Message is "take account online" but it won't. Outgoing gmail messages work.

My apple mail is receiving my outlook/company messages but not gmail. It says the account is offline, but won't go online. gmail messages do send. Help!

Remove the account and put it back again, use Internet Accounts (in System Preferences) to do this.

My Apple Mail is showing 100 million incoming messages and climbing at a rate of about 20k per second. Where are all these going and how do I get this to stop?
thanks

Whoa, was your email exposed on a public forum/TV show?
First I would sign out of Mail right away.
Second I would go to your email's website and sign into there. Examples... icloud.com, hotmail.com, yahoo.com and whatever you use. Just to see if it's happening there. If it is happening there, then I strongly suggest changing your email address and whatever website you used it on for login information.
If it's not happening there, then hopefully when you sign back into Mail it won't happen again. If it does happen again, let us know. I wouldn't be able to help but maybe someone else could.

Error when sending message: 500 Internal Server Error

Hi
IE is not accepting any messages,
when I try to send the messgae to the IE ( using RWB) i am getting the below error " Error when sending message: 500 Internal Server Error".
following things what i have noticed.
1. Pipleline URL is fine, both in the BS of XI and in the RFC destnation which i am maintaing on the IE admin) URL is "http://<host>:8000/sap/xi/engine?type=entry"
2. SICF all the XI serivess are up and running, i am able to test these service.
3. The http port is active ( SMICM )
Pls note the error is 500 Internal Server Error
regards
Nisar

I think in a simple term 500 can be said as "the request cannot be processed curretnly", these options mentieoned by you are not applicable in my case.
This generally occurs due to load problem or if you are on an SP less than 12 or even if there is an administration problem---I am on PI7.0 , what are the administration problem you are talking about?
1 Check Table Space is enough. ---i had installed server recently & very few interface running.
2 Server licence Date or Time. In this case change system date and restart server.---i have recently installed server.
3 Check the service pack levels on your XI. If it is obsolete upgrade it with latest versio----Can u explain more on this?
Try restart the java stack(XI Server) and follwing services.
com.sapii.af.app ---I am not passing trough Adater framework, so i dont think this service will matters....
com.sapii.cpa.af.app.---CPA cahe is done sucessfully, as i said i am not passsing through adapter framework.
basically for a simple HTTP post what might cause 500 error if all necessary services are up and running?
regards
Nisar

Error when sending message: 404 not found

Hi,
New to XI, practicing file to jdbc scenario. File is pickedup from the source folder but nothing appearing on the receiver end ms access database.
In the Component Monitoring, tried sending message manually with all the right info in Integration engine, getting an error message saying:
"Error when sending message : 404 not found"
Also tried in Adapter Engine and the result same.
Before doing this scenario, I tried file - file scenario then also the sender file pickedup from source folder but nothing happend at the receiver end.
Any idea's?? what might be the issue????
Thanks,
Venu.

Hi Venu,
"404 is a not found error", plz make a check of your URL you're using is correct? do you use the right port? Normally the port is 80<SystemNo>, so rather 8001 than 7001.
Also check in transaction SICF, if the node /sap/xi/adapter_plain has been activated, if not, activate it and try again.
If you are testing sending the message to the Adapter Engine, then the Send Message URL should be like this:
http://<server>:<J2EEport>/MessagingSystem/receive/AFW/XI
For your error, refer to the following threads:
Unable to find an associated SLD element
Unable to refresh cache contents in XI.
Unable to find an associated SLD element
Also check that the Adapter Engine is successfully registered in the SLD. To do this, call the Content Maintenance function in the SLD as follows:
http://<sld-host>:<sld-j2ee-port>/sld u2192 Administration u2192 Content Maintenance.
Select XI Adapter Framework.
Thirteen associations have to be registered.

If you can't find all the associations, then you will have to create the associations manually.

Error when sending message: 500 Timeout

while sendin a message in the http to rfc scenario, im gettin this error message "Error when sending message: 500 Timeout".
can any1 throw some light on this.

Hi venu,
you need to go to RZ10 and there select the profile instance and go with the extended maintance option in the change mode.
there are two ways you can change it:
1. check out note: 824554
TCODE - rz10
icm/server_port_0 = PROT=HTTP,PORT=8010,TIMEOUT=800,PROCTIMEOUT=800
(for 800 seconds)
8010 is my HTTP port so you have to change it:)
2. SXMB_ADM -> configure integration server -> change specific identifiers
runtime parameter:
Parameter HTTP_TIMEOUT
Meaning
Specifies the timeout for http connections (time between two data packages at line level). This value overrides the system profile parameter icm/server_port_n (for example, icm/server_port_0 : PROT=HTTP, PORT=50044, TIMEOUT=900). If you do not set the parameter HTTP_TIMEOUT or if you set the parameter to 0, then the setting for the system profile parameter is used.
Personally I only changed the one from the instance profile but the second one should work too
My suggestion is change only PROCTIMEOUT to 600 or 900 but dont change TIMEOUT. Imp thing is u need to restart the XI, then onlychanges will take place.
If these dosent work out go for changing TIMEOUT also. Just set the value for the instance and dont maintain the HTTP_Timeout in the sxmb_adm
Let me know what u have done , if it works
Thanks,
srini

Test message from RWB: Error when sending message: 401 Unauthorized

Hi Experts,
While I am sending test message from RWB, I am getting following error:
Error when sending message: 401 Unauthorized
I am using correct userid/password as I am working with Repository/directory. Also in one of the test scenario files are picking up from folder but never got processed because of similar issue (HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_NOT_OK) and SERVICE NOT AVAILABLE.
I am having SAP_ALL authorizations and few days back everything was fine.
I think something wrong with configuration in XI but I am unable to pin point.
Please help.
Regards,
Gourav

Yes,
but
Role of Business System : Integration system
Corresponding Integ. Server : http://<XI server>:<http port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry
How can I change it to Application system
and RUNTIME->IS_URL = http://<XI server>:<http port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry

For your error, refer to the following threads:
