Cannot download mail from the server after a particular date

Hi, I just set up my pop3 account on the Iphone. That was easy
I started downloading the mails. It download all the mails till Wednesday morning and then just stopped. Since then I've tried to re-install the email account, download the mails again, reboot the handset but nothing seems to work. Each time it only downloads the mails till Wednesday morning and stops there.
My Gmail account on the other hand works fine and is up to date with the email notifications.
Any advise on how to go about this?

Most POP3 clients delete messages from the server on download. Are you positive you don't have another mail client set up somewhere (on your home or work computer) that may have already pulled them down and deleted them from the server?

Can't download mail from the server icloud account

My icloud mail account will not download messages. I'm unable to access my inbox.
The message displayed when I push to download is can not connect to server.

Does your ISP offer a separate account for additional email addresses or are additional email addresses what is called an "alias" account or address to the primary account?
A separate account for an additional email address with the same provider has its own user name.
An "alias" account or email address to a primary account shares the same user name and password as the primary account.
You can created separate accounts in Mail with the same provider which has the same incoming mail server and you can use the same password for both accounts as long as each account has its own user name which is usually the portion of the email address in front of the @ sign and with some providers it is the entire email address.
I have set up the 2 email accounts within Mail, but when
trying to edit and save the "Advanced" preferences for my
2nd email account, I get an error message saying something
to the effect: " [email protected] is already being
used by another account".
This error message indicates the additional email account you created in Mail shares the same user name and password as the primary/existing account which you cannot create as a separate account in Mail.
If so, there is a way to access an alias account or address to a primary account without creating it as a separate account.
If so, do not delete the additional account created yet.

HOW DO I DOWNLOAD MAIL FROM THE SERVER

In the past, Thunderbird had a simple command , "Get Mail" That has disappeared as far as I can tell. Need to get my messages off the server as some just disappear if I leave them there too long and I never can tell what "too long" is.
Thanks
Vic Tennery

Get Mail has not been removed, but yours may be hidden.

IMHO, unless you have a formal service level agreement with your email provider, you should view all email stored on their server as transient and not guaranteed to be there tomorrow.

I cannot download messages from the server - although the line at the bottom says they are being downloaded.

When I try to download, a pop-up appears showing AVG is scanning emails, and the line on the left bottom says dowloading 1 of x messages, and nothing further happens. When I go to server and open web mail, the messages are here and can be read, but won't download to desktop.

Don't let AVG scan your Thunderbird profile folder.

The system cannot download information from the SQLSERVER server.

Hi All,
After BPC 7.0 SP6 for MS install we get the following when trying to access the "Manage Application Sets" or any other admin console task, when we try to execute the connection wizard:
The system cannot download information from the SQLSERVER server.
There may be a network or security issue.
Error Message:Error code: 500
any ideas?

Steven,
Could you also make sure that the problem is not on the client side.
Is this a fresh installtion on the client machine? Or was there already an previous version of BPC on this machine?
If this is not a fresh install, you can try to uninstall the software and then deleting all the files in the folder
"program files\BPC". I've seen that sometimes not all the files are automatically deleted.
Then installing the Bpc client agian...
Kind regards,
Sam

When using an iPad Air, is it possible to have my email removed from the server after downloading it? That's what I have been doing on my PowerBook and I would like to use my iPad as my primary email reader now.

OK, I found the answer in the mail settings under the advanced button.

HT4859 After the i-cloud server issue Nov 26, 2012, I had to change some mail account settings to get my i-cloud mail to work again. However, all of my received e-mails are gone. How do I retrieve my e-mails from the server?

After the i-cloud server issue yesterday, November 26, 2012, my i-cloud mail account on my Macbook Pro stopped receiving mail. I changed some mail account settings to fix the issue, and was able to start receiving e-mails. However, all of my historical e-mails are gone. How do I retrieve all of my old e-mails from the server?

What settings did you change, what were the changes, have you visited www.icloud.com to see what mail is actually there? and do you have a backup?

Mail Won't Quit, and Keeps Reloading Old Mail from the Server

I recently had an apparent laptop battery failure while in Mail (while on battery). The machine abruptly shut down with no warning with about 55% power still available. It did this subsequently at random power levels. But, it always worked on the line power adapter. There have been no recurrences with a new battery.
Since I archive all my mail on my desktop machine, the laptop is set to NOT remove messages from the server after downloading.
1. After the first power failure with Mail active, on restart I got message from Mail to the effect that there was something wrong with the mail indexing, and if I would do X (don't remember what), then it would be fixed. I did X, and the system came up.
But, it had lost track of which messages had already been downloaded. Every time Mail was launched in downloaded the entire contents of the server spool, leading to massive duplications.
2. Then I discovered that I could not quit the application. If you tried, the first time it would close the message window, but remain active on the menu bar, with the "Quit" box grayed out.
I could force it to quit, but that may have been leading to it forgetting which mails it had already read.
I have run the disk utility, including the permissions check, and it reports that all is well.
I have reloaded Mail from the System disc, with no improvement.
I have tried deleting the com.apple.mail.plist file. But when Mail opens and brings up the Setup window, it fails to find the outgoing mail server.
Replacing the new plist with the original fixes the outgoing problem, but whether the new or old plist is in place, the multiple downloads and failing to quit both happen.
Since all of these attempts, a new symptom has emerged:
3. When dragging the Inbox messages to the trash (or using the Delete button), they do go to the trash, but remain in the inbox as well.
Any thoughts?

FYI: I found that there were two very-similarly-named folders in the users/(home)/Library/Mail folder.
One was called: POP-(username)@(ISP popservername).(ISP domain).
The other was called POP-(username)@(ISP popservername)@(ISP domain).
They both contained some of the core mail boxes, e.g. Deleted Messages, INBOX, Junk etc.
However, only one had the file: MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded.
I copied the user mailboxes elsewhere and trashed these two folders. But opening Mail recreated them with all the same issues.
I trashed them again, along with the (boot disk)/Library/Mail, and the (bootdisk)/Applications.Mail.app file.
Then I reloaded the Mail app from the OS 10.5 Install DVD.
Launching Mail and setting its preferences cleared up the problem. Only one of the pop folders showed up and it correctly tracked the already downloaded files, and quit normally when asked.

Cannot download Mail from ISP Web Mail Page. Help please?!!

Using an Intel Mac, running OS X. 4. 11
Mail 2.1.3
Last night suddenly my mail stopped downloading new incoming mail from the server web mail page.
I have spoken to my ISP/server (they have an excellent Mac tech team.) and the settings for my account are correct, and Connection Doctor says all is well.
I can send mail, well I have not had any response from people yet to know they got it! But a test to myself goes into my web mail page and will not download either.
My ISP says they wonder if it is problem with the Mail application.
I do not want to do a clean install, and risk losing any data.
As it was all of my old mail in my inbox and Trash, I had kept from people as a reminder, that went when we altered the settings temporarily but when that did not work we went back to the original settings.
I hate having to have a web page open as well as my mail when replying to a person.
Any ideas?
Or if it is a Mail problem might it work if I used a different mail application such as Eudora or Thunderbird?

I can't access my mail from the server!!!

I am having trouble retrieving mail....I click on "Get Mail" and nothing happens. When I select the inbox and Get Info, it shows that there are a number of new emails on the server, yet my Mail program does not want to retrieve them. I checked to see if my account was enabled (under Preferences) and it is....I don't understand what the problem is...this is happening in a networked office of 10 other macs, and only one other person is having this exact same problem. very weird. internet works fine.
any suggestions? I'm about to download a new mail program like entourage if this keeps up.
thanks,

POP account.
We own Entourage already, so that isn't a problem.
Right now we're using www.mail2web.com as a temporary solution, but that isn't really practical for a professional architecture firm where email records are essential to our business.
I would love to keep using Mail, I really have no idea how to fix this problem. I don't know why it is only happening to 2 of our 10 computers, there is no difference in the setup of any of them, and this started mid-morning, so I know that the users did nothing to the settings. It just stopped wanting to pick up mail from the server.
File size does not seem to matter, because one of the computer's mailboxes has about 10,000 emails saved, and the other has about 20, and they are showing the exact same behaviour. It is really strange!

Hello echo1946
Start with the first article to troubleshoot the issue of not getting mail on your iPad. When you get online using safari, check to see if you can log into webmail. Also keep in mind, depending on the account that mail sometimes might not come in if it is a POP account as it may have already been download elsewhere.
