Can't drag messages from inbox to specific mail boxes

All of a sudden mail does not allow me to drag messages from the inbox to specific mail boxes - anyone else having a similar issue and i so, what is the solution ?
Thanks.

Hi,
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 these 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.

Can't Drag Text from Terminal Window to Mail

I can drag and drop text from Mail to the Terminal window but not the other way around. I can drag text from Terminal to Word but not Mail. Is there a setting I have wrong somewhere?

Do we know if this is in the plasn for 10.5? It just seems like one Apple app to another Apple app should be abel to drag and drop text. It does work from Mail to Terminal... I can always copy and paste the text but it just gnaws away at me I guess.

Can't delete messages from inbox

We have reached our quota so in an effort to reduce it we have deleted unwanted emails & copied older emails to a new folder under our local folders tab. We are now having troubles deleting the copied emails from our inbox.
Your assistance with this matter would be much appreciated. Thank you!

If you have an IMAP mail account and you have selected to delete emails but they are still on the server....
Right click on Inbox folder and select 'Compact'.
This should remove all 'marked as deleted' mail.

Hi marygilles56,
Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation. Any easy way to see if the problem is on the Firefox side is to try using IE or Safari. If the issue still happens with both of them, it's an issue with your email provider.
Hopefully this helps!

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server not from my iPad inbox only?

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server also not from my iPad inbox only?
Because when i delete emails from my iPad inbox, it will be deleted on my iPad only but when i check my email inbox server from the browser its not deleted!
So how can i set up this link so when i delete any email from my iPad it will be deleted from my email inbox server also?

Hi Pierrot10,
Insert your backup disc (or plug your external hd), then open Mail.
In the File menu, click *Import Mailboxes* and follow the steps for a *Mail for Mac OS X* transfer.
Navigate to your CD/DVD's or external HD's backup and hit "OK".
This should create a new "Imported" folder in Mail with all your old messages in it, that you can then rearrange as you wish, creating new mailboxes etc.

Can't delete email messages from some folders in Mail

I CAN delete email messages from header Folder "MAILBOXES" (drafts, sent, trash); however, there's another folder header below called "ON MY MAC", where I save various emails by dragging them to a subfolder, and when I try to delete these, I get this message:
"The message '(subject of email)' could not be moved to the mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' The destination mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' does not allow messages to be moved to it."
The only way to delete from this folder is to hold Control, select from the dropdown Move to, then Trash, and then one of three sub-trash folders (the one that has my email address) -- this is a pain to do.
Mail is just not working properly any more (I just added 2 other posts - one about crashing, another about all my Fonts missing)
thank you in advance!

Colin,
Have you checked Mail>Window>Previous Recipients for the old address? If not, attempt to "Remove From List" at that location and let us know what happens.

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?

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.

Can't get message from mailbox in shell script

I'm using the shell-script workaround for the problem of creating messages from scripts run by a Mail rule. Can't seem to get the syntax right for getting a message passed from the main routine:
Main
<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:800px">using terms from application "Mail"
on perform mail action with messages theMessages
repeat with eachMessage in theMessages
set theID to id of eachMessage
set theBox to name of mailbox of eachMessage
set theAccount to "none"
try
set theAccount to name of account of mailbox of eachMessage
end try
do shell script "osascript Users/dave/Library/Scripts/Applications/Mail/exp.scpt " & theID & " " & theBox & " " & theAccount
end repeat
end perform mail action with messages
end using terms from
using terms from application "Mail"
on run
tell application "Mail" to set sel to selection
tell me to perform mail action with messages (sel)
end run
end using terms from</pre>
Shell
<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:800px">on run TheArgs
using terms from application "Mail"
set theID to item 1 of TheArgs
set theBox to item 2 of TheArgs
set theAccount to item 3 of TheArgs
if theAccount = "none" then
set theMessage to (message of mailbox theBox) whose id is (theID as integer)
else
set theMessage to (message of mailbox theBox of account theAccount) whose id is (theID as integer)
end if</pre>
The conditional is so I can test by selecting messages from either my Inbox or other boxes. Either way, though I get runtime errors like: "Can’t get «class mssg» of «class mbxp» \"INBOX\" of «class mact» \"David\" whose id of it = \"19111\". (-1728)"
I've tried variations, but nothing seems to work.
BTW, how does one view events or results in a shell script? Neither its window nor the main routine's show anything, and even "log" statements in the shell seem to go nowhere.

I think I understand what's going wrong. If I select a message in my Inbox, the shell statement
<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:800px">set theMessage to (message 1 of mailbox theBox of account theAccount) whose id is (theID as integer)</pre>
works. If I select a message from an On My Mac box, though, I can't get theAccount in Main in the first place because there's no account associated with those boxes. That's why I set up the "try" in Main and the conditional in the shell. I see now that
<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:800px">set theBox to name of mailbox of eachMessage</pre>
in Main yields only the name of the box -- any containers it may have are omitted. Therefore,
<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:800px">set theMessage to (message 1 of mailbox theBox) whose id is (theID as integer)</pre>
fails if there are any containers. So, I need a "set theBox" statement in Main that produces a proper path to the message, regardless of where it's located. If I can formulate that, a single "set theMessage" in the shell will suffice, without having worry about whether there's an account. I've experimented with "path to" and will continue casting about, but if the solution is apparent to you, please let me know.
BTW: Echo was a worthwhile "little diversion" for me, because it's led me to a better understanding of what "do shell script" does (i.e., it executes a UNIX command as if it was typed into Terminal) and why it solves the message-creation problem (i.e., it runs the named script as a process that's separate from Mail). I suppose that was obvious to you and many others, but it wasn't to me, despite reading what the AS Language Guide says about it, plus a few Google hits for "osascript." So thank you for that.
One thing I don't understand, though: If I change the command to "echo $1 $2 $3", nothing appears in Terminal. (I can produce files the way you showed just fine.)

Exchange 2010 / outlook 2010 | can't drag messages to folders

Why can't I drag a message to a folder?

Hi,
Have you tried this in Outlook safe mode? To start Outlook in safe mode, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
outlook /safe and press Enter.
In addition, we may try to recreate the .ost file to check if this issue is related to Data File corruption. To do this, just find the .ost file and rename it to .old, then restart Outlook.
I also heard that some user were able to resolve this issue by hitting the
Esc key from keyboard. See a similar issue discussed here:

Can i drag files from one computer to another

can i drag files from one computer to another

You can, if you want to transfer files between macs I advies to use AirDrop(wi-fi needs to be enabled). Use shift+command+R, this will take you to your AirDrop in finder. Do this on both computers and you should see the user of the mac where you want to transfer files to.
If the seconds computer is a Windows, you can alway use a USB Drive, External Drive, through Dropbox(install dropbox on both computers and download the files that you need on the second computer) and if the file is small even mail.

Jeroen
