Cannot increase/zoom text in Mac Mail.

I've tried everything that the manuals, support and user groups have suggested and nothing works.
I know that it's something simple.
Please help.

Open System Preferences > Accessibility > Zoom
Select: Use keyboard shortcuts to zoom
BTW... if you don't tell us exactly what you have tried that didn't work, we have no way of knowing.

Zoom in on mac mail (not pinching but more like in Safari)?

I wonder if I can zoom in when in Mac Mail (on my iMac)?
I installed Lion and I know I can zoom in by pinching, but I would like to zoom in more like you can do under the 'view' menu in safari, where it keeps the window structure and size in tact and enlarges everything within that structure?

There are many ways to zoom into Mail. Here is a video that explains how on not only Mail but other apps.

Why cannot I not see my mac mail folders?

Why can I not see my mac mail folders on my iPad?

I also use MobileMe and yes it uses IMAP by default.
Okay, it's simple than. The folders you've created are local folders which are not stored on the server.
In order to change that open Mail.app select Mailbox->New Mailbox and make sure you choose MobileMe at Location.
Now drag&drop your "On my Mac" mails into that new "MobileMe" folder. After a few min. they should be synced.

Cannot edit text in Mac Mail

Just updated to Mavericks (10.9.4) on my MacBook Pro, and among many other annoying issues, when I type out an email I cannot easily edit the text once typed. For instance if I misspell a word, I cannot click on it with my cursor to edit; I have to click at the end of the line of text and delete all the way back to my error. Has anybody heard of this and know any way to resolve? Thus far, my experience with Mavericks has just been a slow rollout of odd issues

What about other applications, such as TextEdit?

Cannot send email w/mac mail using Juno and Tiger

Hello!
I have had a problem ever since I upgraded last year to Tiger. I have Juno, and ever since I upgraded from Jaguar, I cannot use the Juno software to log on. But more annoying that that (I have a work around that works just fine), I cannot send email from my mac mail. If I want to send an email or respond to an email, I have to physically log onto Juno's website and email and write and send from there. I have contacted Juno numerous times, and they tell me to reset my password, which makes no sense to me. Any Ideas?

Regarding not being able to send mail with your .Mac account and .Mac SMTP server, most if not all ISPs used for connecting to the internet block the use of SMTP servers outside of their network on Port 25. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) that is outside of their network on Port 25 but some block its use regardless. These restrictions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent or reduce spam eminating from the ISP's domain.
Something to try.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below.
At the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
If this is not successful, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.

Cannot Send emails from Mac Mail

I cannot send emails from my Mac Mail.
Originally got a error message to check with the ISP about port 25 being
timed out. I deleted the email account and recreated it a new.I did all the
checking and rechecking of the account settings and passwords etc.......
I then got this message
Error message: Server response was 5.1.0 authentication required
Comcast did not know the error message 5.1.0
Help!

Is there a way to increase the font size in the sidebar of Mac mail and the Finder when running OS 10.6.8?

Is there a way to increase the font size in the sidebar of Mac mail and the Finder when running OS 10.6.8?

The only way to increase the size of the onscreen text in the Finder Menu Bar and in the Side bar in Finder Windows is to change the screen resolution in the OS X Preferences Pane under the Displays icon.
What Mac and screen size are you using?

Mac Mail 7.3 Scrambling Text

Mac Mail 7.3 Scrambling Text
My text scrambles or bunches up when I backspace or try to forward space. I cannot isolate a single letter.
For about a year. I keep waiting for it to get fixed in the next update. I have been typing everything in my stickies and pasting it in for the past year hoping it would get fixed but now I'm thinking it may be me and my machine. Mac Pro. About 2 years old. If anyone else has had this problem please let me know. Thanks!!
Stephen

This has been happening for months. If anyone knows what's going on I would be very grateful.

Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 993
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
          •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 587
          •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

Old but new Q: Cannot send email from Mac Mail application but computer tells me I'm online

I know this is an "old" issue for many, but I cannot find the solution to my problem.
A couple of months ago I moved to a new flat--suddenly I could not send emails anymore from my Mac Mail app, although I could receive them. I called Comcast, my Internet provider, who said it was my email server's problem. My email server is icloud, so I talked to a Mac tech guy who did remote desktop troubleshooting and said everything was set up correctly, etc., so I will have to talk to Comcast again. I called Comcast again and they told me again, it is not their issue.
So this is what happens: When I try to send an email, I get the spinning circle in the mailbox bar, and then it tells me after five minutes of spinning that icloud is offline. However, when I do a further check of the diagnostics, the light is green and says that yes, in fact I am connected/online. Note: I can send and receive fine on webmail, but I do not want to keep using webmail at home. It is very inconvenient.
I called Mac support again, and they told me I should find my solution online; otherwise, I can pay $20 to have someone remotely troubleshoot for me. Of course, I could not find the answer online. I am quite frustrated and annoyed at this point. Is it a port issue? Is it an OS issue? Mind you, I only have this problem at home, nowhere else. I take my laptop to a café, to a friend's place--I can send emails just fine. This leads me to believe that it's a Comcast issue, although they deny it.
Any thoughts would be deeply, deeply appreciated! Thank you!!

How about some free much-needed advice on how I can
start receiving emails again!
This indicates you were able to receive email with
your Verizon account previously with the Mail.app?
If so, try running Keychain First Aid on your login
Keychain.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=151548
Open Keychain Access, located in
Applications/Utilities.
Choose Window > Keychain First Aid.
Select your login Keychain, enter your password,
select Repair and then Start.
This is Trevor from the first post and I figured it out:
Go into mail - preferences - and delete the email account in question - the window will tell you that you'll lose all your saved mail, etc - you can save it if you like.
Then click on yes and you create a new mail account using your same incoming/outgoing settings. And, like magic, it works!
Try it - and if you want to save any mail before deleting your affected account, do it.
All the best!
