Can't find sent mail

I accidentally dragged all my "Sent" items (POP and IMAP) into an IMAP "Inbox". Now there is nothing in my "Sent" box and I can't find my old "Sent" items anywhere. Is there any way to recover the missing "Sent" items?

Thanks, Big Joe - For some reason, it took a while for the the IMAP inbox folder to show the sent mail transferred to it, so I couldn't find it. I checked again after receiving your message, and there it was. Mahalo!

I can't find the mail application

Hi, I just bought a second-hand macbook air (model 2009, os x leopard) and I can't find the mail application. Maybe the previous owner deleted it or something? If so, how can I get it back? (sorry for bad English)

This is a photo of what i see. It's completely different! The text on the DVD says: Applications Install DVD. it must be it
This is not correct.
I have never seen an Applications Install DVD.
I said to use the OS install DVD. It should be in:
My Leopard install DVD looks like this:

Can't find sent messages in Sent Folder

Yes, this same problem occurs to me - but only after migrating to Mountain Lion (or at least I did not notice it before)
Yes, I am operating several different eMail addresses - does this have anything to do with this problem ?!
Please help, if you can, this is enormously irritating.
Thanks & regards

How can I create additional "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5

How can I create additional or sub "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5.

Thank you for your reply Don, but I had already gone through that procedure and it will only create new mailboxes for received mail. I want to create new mailboxes for sent mail, i.e. the first column being "to" not "from". Under the Mailbox menus there is an option "Use This Mailbox For" but all the options under that (including Sent) are greyed out. Unfortunately the View/Columns option to change from "From" to "To" changes all mailboxes not just the active one.

Where can I find a mail that's stored in quarantine?

We have a user that doesn't get all the mail he should. I turned on forwarding all mails that Spam Assasin gets, and soon one of the mails got caught there!
So, I got the message:
"The message has been quarantined as:
spam-5ed7458e42ce8e31a18299f33ee85b12-20111219-235053-20971-09.gz"
Where can I find this mail?
Tia!

In Finder? Finder's an app that doesn't have any folders. When trying Spotlight, expand the search criteria to include System files, and try again.

How can I find sent photos from IPHoto?

There doesn't seem to be a way to see what photos I sent to whom on IPhoto. I sent a photo today to someone but I can't find it anywhere. This is not a good thing. Does anyone know how to find these emails that were sent? Thanks.

iPhoto is not an email client and the mail feature is a handy way to send a snap to Grandma rather than a replacement for an email app. It does not have an outbox, for instance. You can opt to bcc yourself on photos though or simply use an email client.

How do I get firefox 3.5 back? Firefox 4 can't find yahoo.mail URL. Using your suggestions has caused me to loose my system tray icons and printers from my computer altogether and my system restore will no longer work either.

Firefox 4.0 cannot find the Yahoo mail URL. Working with the Verizon tech we were able to get Internet Explorer to finaly find the yahoo mail web site. But not luck with Firefox 4.0 .
Since trying your suggestions to make firefox 4 find the Yahoo mail URL. I have noticed that all of my system tray icons except the Panda anti virus and volume control icons have disapeared. My system restore will not restore and printers are gone altogether. How do I get the old firefox and all i've lost back.

Can't find older mail from archived install

I recently upgraded the OS on my iBook G4 to Tiger - and performed an archived install just to be safe. After installation was successful, most of my preferences transferred with the upgrade seamlessly (Calendar, Address Book items, bookmarks etc.)
But, when I opened Mail, although my mail server preferences transferred okay, I discovered that most of my earlier mail from the the last year or so is missing. And for most of the messages that are actually apearring in my inbox, Mail is saying "X Message has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it." But, I am online and I can retrieve and send mail just fine.
Anyone have any idea how imight be able to recover my older mail? (I checked in the "Previous System" archived folder and sadly, there is no Library/Mail folder in there.) If worse comes to worse, I did back up all of my files on another drive before I upgraded, but I'm curious if maybe I'm just doing something wrong and my old Mail is currently buried somewhere on my laptop. Any help would be apprecaited. Thanks.

The conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problem. A similar procedure should allow you to fix other mailboxes that might also be affected:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn’t need to have an .mbox extension.
4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
6. Move any strangely-named Messages-T0x... folders to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn’t work as expected. If you’ve been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
8. Open Mail.
9. The account’s Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that’s not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that’s on the Desktop.
As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful.
Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you want and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
Take a look at the following article (also referenced in the thread I mentioned at the beginning of this post) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON’T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

How do I find sent mail which is disapeared?

Hello, sometimes Mail does remove sent emails. Now I want to find an email back, because it's really important. Is it possible to find it back, althought it's not on the server or any of my devices? It seems to be that this bug appears since the last IOS-update.
Thank you for your advice!

My sent mail appears in Sent mailboxes in every single one of my email accounts. I have four of them on the iPad and the behavior is the same in all four. One is POP and the other three are IMAP accounts.

Is there any specific installation procedure?

Vitor,
The SBO Mailer is part of the SBO Service Manager and is installed when you install the SAP Business One Server Tools. You need to choose a "custom" install and the actually choose to install the SBO Mailer.
Hope this helps,

I need to restore my email settings using time machine but can't find the mail.plist in the backups

Hi, i can find my mail.plist by opening library/preferences holding the option key, but I can't replicate this when i'm searching for the same file in time machine. I have somehow deleted my mail settings and am trying to restore using time machine. Any ideas? Thanks

In Finder under Library/Preferences/ i found the following which I think is what you are looking for:
I "highlighted" this file in Finder FIRST, and then leaving Finder Open, I also opened Time Machine and when TM opened, Finder was displayed in it as seen above and I could then select dates going back to Restore this file from just fine.
Hope this helps

I can't find my Mail Library

I have switched from a POP account to an IMAP account and want to import the emails from the old POP account to the new IMAP account.
I am running Yosemite and have spent hours looking for the Library where the old POP emails are stored but can not find it. HELP!
I have read some threads suggesting that this folder is hidden. If so, does anybody know how to find it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
alexfromseaforth.

If you haven't yet deleted the IMAP account, just drag the messages to the new mailbox within Mail. If you have deleted the account, and you back up with Time Machine, see below.
Bring the Mail browser window forward, then enter Time Machine. You'll see a series of Mail windows cascading back in time, each representing a snapshot of the Mail database.
Scroll back to the most recent snapshot containing the messages you want to restore. Select the messages, then click Restore. The messages will be restored to a new mailbox named "com.apple.Mail.backup" in the On My Mac group. From there you can move them wherever you like.
Depending on how many mailboxes you have, you may have to scroll the mailbox list up or down to see the new entry. According to some reports, you might have to relaunch Mail, or perhaps wait a while for the database to be reindexed, before it shows up. I can't confirm those reports.
