Can't get mails from server anymore !!

Hi there,
I am using Mail 2.1.3 with Tiger 10.4.11 on a G5 bi pro, and since a couple of days, e-mails from one of my POP accounts are not downloaded from the webmail server any longer... I can see them on the server, Mail 2.1.3 logs in successfully, but it seems that it simply doesn't download them...
I have rebuild and re index all boxes already.
I can send mails from that account with no problems, though and Mail 2.1.3 works fine with my others POP accounts.
Can anybody help me on that issue ?
Thank you very much.
Mac OS X 10.4.11 (8S165)
G5 Power PC 2 x 1.8 GHz

I'm not aware of any limits. Before we do anything & to be safe...
On Mail...
First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
(Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Then, we can either trash the above file & setup Mail on running it again to exactly what we have now, or not trash it but in Mail Preferences>Accounts>Advanced... uncheck enable this account & uncheck Include when checking for new Mail.
Then setup a new Account identical to the problem one with only some slight change to the Description that must be unique.

  • Get mails from server and put into DB without allocating memory.

    Hi all
    I have a application that downloads the mails from the mail server and then write them to the DB.
    I am using folder.getMessage method to get the mails from server.
    is there a way using which I can have a function that acts as a pipe between my server and DB and write the mails without consuming the memory.
    (may be something to do with getInputByteStream/getOutputByteStream or getInputStream and setBinaryStream 'preparedStatement interface ')
    Thanks

  • After the last update, Thunderbird can not get mail from RCN POP3?

    On a WINDOWS 7 PC (Dell Inspiron 15) Thunderbird was automatically updated June 12.

  • Cryptography in networking,client can't get message from server but

    Hello We are developing a simple Networking project where we are chaining CipherStreams to ObjectStream. When client gets connected to the server the server will send initial message to client and flush (but here is the problem) but the client does not get the message and is waiting for the message input.readObject() it just stuck there, what is the reason??
    ---Server Code----
    server = new ServerSocket( 15000, 100 );
    while ( true ) {
    connection = server.accept();
    connection.setTcpNoDelay(true);
    // Get input and output streams.
    desEn.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, desKey);
    //get the raw OutputStream
    outraw = connection.getOutputStream();
    //chain the OutputStream to the coutDES
    CipherOutputStream
    CipherOutputStream coutDES = new CipherOutputStream(outraw, desEn);
    //chain the coutDES CipherOutputStream to
    ObjectOutputStream of output
    output = new ObjectOutputStream(coutDES);
    String message = "SERVER>>>DES CONNECTION SUCCESSFUL!";
    output.writeObject( message );
    output.flush();
    -End of Server Code--
    -- Client code start-
    Cipher desEn = Cipher.getInstance("DES"); //encrypting
    Cipher Cipher desDe = Cipher.getInstance"DES");
    client = new Socket(servername, 15000);
    client.setTcpNoDelay(true);
    desDe.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE,desKey);
    cinDES = new CipherInputStream(inraw, desDe);
    input = new ObjectInputStream(cinDES);
    // We got stuck here the program don't go beyond this line
    Object obj = input.readObject();

    Thank you for your suggestion. But I tried to chain the BufferedStream between ObjectStream and CipherStream. The problem still exit.
    In the c/s sides, there are two functions to use the socket. One is the protocol part which does the handshaking before everything is prepared. Then a JTextField object is enabled and it will also use the socket and the chained stream to commnicate with the other part.
    The concrete problem is strange, it seems there is some hidden buffer which holds the message. When a message is send and flush, it doesn't go to the net, instead it is hold somewhere until an other message is send and flush. So there are some delay. So in my code I have to use sendDate("\n") to push the useful message out into to net. And on the other side, eatBoundary() to get rid of the "\n" and then getMsg() to recieve the useful message.
    However, for some time the communiction stuck, both sides are waiting. But when you send another message, the previous and the new message appear on the other side. In the way, it is hard to implement the handshaking which requires reliable syncronization. You have met the same problem before? If you think it is not clear enough could you send me your email addr and I can send you the source code.
    my addr; [email protected]
    Thanks again!

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Can't Get E-mail from Server

    Never a problem in the past. I can send e-mail and I can use Web Mail from Earthlink to get my mail. My Apple mail program just twirls and twirls but cannot connect to download the e-mail. My internet went down for a few minutes yesterday. I turned off the modem and then back on again and re-established the internet. Then the mail problem started. So I shut down everything for 30 minutes. Turned the modem back on. Started the computer.
    Did not solve the problem. Still unable to access the Earthlink mail.
    Of course, any help is always appreciated.
    Marvis

    As of this morning I have had exactly the same problem. I use Earthlink as my ISP. I can send and receive mail fine from the web. Using Mail on my laptop (and my desktop) I can send but not receive mail. I can both send and receive mail from my .mac account using Mail. I also cannot receive mail on my iPhone. However, I can receive mail on my old Treo (which I was going to ditch because of the iPhone - how ironic!). I rebuilt my inbox and it didn't help. Clearly it seems to be a problem with Mail.
    I don't have any answers - just was sort of glad to see that I am not alone, and hopefully one of the gurus out there will have an answer.
    Thanks

    Try these basic troubleshooting steps first
    1. Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage (try any webpage). If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you are unable to load a webpage, follow these troubleshooting steps.
              - Try to use an alternate Internet connection if available:
                        1. Try a different Wi-Fi connection
                        2. If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fiand turn off Wi-Fi.

    2. Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
    3. Restart your iOS device.
    4. Delete the affected email account from your device.

    I am having trouble getting mail from the shaw server that my new iMac is connected to. I have to reboot the system to get Outlook for Mac to access the system and obtain new messages. Any ideas? Its at the point where I have started using the PC again as its less trouble.......

    In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".<br />
    See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
    You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"<br />
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

    Hey agnesfromcopenhagen k,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Mail on your iPad. The following resource provides some troubleshooting steps. What kind of account are you using? Some internet providers require that you be connected to your home Wi-Fi (or for work accounts, inside your corporate Wi-Fi/firewall). Also, some email accounts require two-step authentication. For more information, see this resource:
