Custom email boxes missing from mail

I had a notes section under mailboxes in mail. Within this notes section I had several named mailboxes that I used to store various emails. They are now missing from my mac when I converted to Maverick. I still have them on my iPhone. Any suggestions on how to retrieve them? Thanks for your help.

It was really a Notes folder, not really a section. I opened notes and did not find it. Here is what it looks like on my iPhone. I am missing all of the folders below "Notes".
Thanks so much for your help.

Sent emails are missing from Thunderbird following migration from alternative email client and import of emails

All sent emails are missing from the Thunderbird 'Sent' folder following import, but Sent folder still shows a count of the imported emails (Thunderbird considered them to be unread when importing them, hence the count). The messages are also visible online (BT Internet email) and on other devices (Android running BlueMail). Settings are set to place copies of sent items into Sent folder. Having imported all my old email, I can send email but again they do not appear in the Sent folder (but do appear online and on other devices). I have tried compacting the Sent folder and i have tried repairing the folder. All other folders (Inbox, other newly created folders) show the email i have imported.
If I move an email online from the Sent folder to another test folder, it syncs and appears in Thunderbird in that test folder. If I then use Thunderbird to move the email back from that test folder to the Sent folder then Thunderbird will do so, but locks up for a good minute or so while doing that.
Running TB 24.6.0 on Windows 8.1, incoming server set to IMAP on mail.btinternet.com (port 993), outgoing server set to SMTP on mail.btinternet.com (port 465).
Help gratefully received!

Cheers for that, Mulder.
It did seem to recover some emails which had disappeared from Mail, but not all of them. That's the frustrating thing - short of going through my Yahoo webmail accounts and logging every single email, and then cross-referencing with what's on my desktop, I just can't be sure what's there and what's not!
Sometimes it's immediately clear that something is awry - the folder I use for emails from my girlfriend is completely empty, for instance, when I definitely had things in there before the weekend. (Yes, again I went away for the weekend, with the computer still running - and Mail on - and again I returned to discover emails missing.
Arrgh!

Email alias missing from drop-down when composing

My email aliases appear in iCloud mail / preferences / accounts, but when I go to select which one to send from one is missing. It's my husband's name but has always worked until recently. My hsuband tends to use his own iCloud address so hadn't noticed it wasn't working. It has disappeared from all devices synced with this account.
All my other aliases appear as a choice but not this one. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I've just solved this.
(It's amazing that Apple's now so big that even support personnel apparently don't know about this fix.)
• Aliases are now fully managed on icloud.com. Go there in your web browser, log in, and go to Mail.
• Go to the Mail prefs (gear icon, lower left), then the Composing tab. There you'll see an item called “Choose which addresses you would like to be able to send from.” (It’s light gray and easy to overlook.) In the rectangle below that, you'll see various email addresses. (I can see 4.) (See attached screenshot.) Turns out that’s actually a scrollable menu of email addresses. But since there’s no visible scroll bar — even when you mouse over the rectangle — there’s no indication that it's scrollable.
• You must click inside the rectangle and drag upward to reveal any hidden addresses below the first few. Depending upon how many addresses and aliases you have, your aliases (if active) should be somewhere in that list. (In my case, the 4, visible addresses were NOT my aliases. But upon scrolling down, there they all were!)
Inexplicably, not only has Apple changed the location of this stuff, they've disabled our aliases without any explanation! That's why the aliases are missing from Mail.app.
• Tick the checkbox in front of any address that you want to appear in Mail.app.
• Click 'Done.'
That's it! If Mail.app is already running, quit and relaunch it — and your aliases should now be available!

TS1907 All my emails are missing from my main mailboxes. Followed directions in help menu to no avail. Anyone know what happened and how to fix it?

All emails are missing from my main, unruled mailboxes. Followed directions in help to no avail. Can anyone explain what happened and how to fix it? Thanks.

NB : you can not open two catalogs in same time.

TS3899 I am getting 144+ emails a day from mail administrator. I do not recognize these names nor did I send them an email. How can I stop these???

I am getting 144+ emails a day from mail administrator. I do not recognize these names nor did I send them an email. How can I stop these???

We will need more information to be able to assist you.
These message yoy are receiving are probably just a particular type of spam. However it is also possible (unlikely) that your email account is being used to send spam, and that these are the bounce messages.
To tell the difference, you need to look at the email headers. Open the message, then go to the View menu and select Message -> All Headers.
Select the text and post it back here (remembering to obscure your own email address first).

Some emails missing from Mail InBox

All emails received in Mail, version 3.6 (936) between 6:57pm 8 August and 6:15pm 10 August (around 30 messages) have disappeared from my Inbox at some time in the afternoon of 10 August. (I don't suspect the timings are significant, I'm just being specific.) I did not delete them, accidentally or otherwise. They have not moved to any other folder. Account type is POP.
I have followed all recovery procedures listed at: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1907, but nothing has worked. The messages were still on my ISPs server so I have been able to retrieve them on my MacBook.
Questions:
• Is there any known reason for this problem?
• Any way to prevent it recurring?
• Is there some way I can retrieve the lost messages from my ISP into Mail on my iMac?
• Is there any way to import only the missing messages into Mail on my iMac from Mail on my MacBook?
• How can I inform Apple of this problem by email?

Ok....now when I reply to something from my Mail....my phone is sending another reply to the recipient...except blank. Grrrr.

TS3899 Search missing from mail

Search is missing from my mail and I can't seem to access my other email accounts

Hi,
”After restarting the computer, I ran windows update (windows defender updated), and since then have
restarted a few more times, but the search bar is simply missing from the start menu. It's just gone.“
May I know the preview build version you're using now? I wonder whether you're performing a normal Windows Updates or a system upgrade at that time. If it is normal Windows Updates then check if it has created a restore point before installing the updates,
if it has, then you could restore the system to a previous state with system restore and check if it could help you.

Possible bug with HTML emails and attachments from Mail.app

I'm trying to send an attachment with an HTML email from Mail.app and getting unexpected results. I've been messing around with the order that things get added to the new e-mail and it seems that I can have either an attachment or I can have HTML email, not both.
The code... (of course simplified)
tell application "Mail"
set new_message to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"A subject", sender:"[email protected]"}
tell new_message
set visible to true
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:"[email protected]"}
tell content to make new attachment with properties {file name:alias "Path to your file as string"} at after the last paragraph
set html content to "<head><body>Some HTML here...</body></head>"
end tell
send new_message
end tell

The problem is that there is no such thing as HTML email.
Well, I wonder what I have been generating for over three years now. RTF ? Because it sure looks like HTML. I must agree that HTML is not documented or even mentionned in the Mail AS dictionnary, but it does work, though you must specify visible to false so that it does. Here's my sub:
tell application "Mail"
set DMF to default message format
set default message format to plain text
set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject}
tell newMessage
set visible to false
set sender to theSender
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {name:Photographer, address:theAddress}
set html content to "<html><head><title>" & theSubject & "</title></head><body>" & "This is an automated response." & theSource & "Find your personnal planning on the web: " & thelink & "
</body></html>"
end tell
send newMessage
set default message format to DMF
end tell

Emails missing from Mail - can't access backups from Time Machine

To my dismay both of my gmail accounts through the mail client will only show me emails from the last 30 days. I went to check gmail through Safari and the same story, I'm locked out of emails from before the last 30 days. This is not only on my Mac, but also on my iPad and iPhone.
I attempted to go into Time Machine and do a restore, but the same thing is happening and I'm pretty sure it shouldn't be. For some reason even when Time Machine pulls up my email backups I can see stuff from every year but 2013 and the beginning of 2014. It starts populating the backup to show me my emails, but nothing appears and I know those emails have to exist somewhere.
Does anyone know if this is some kind of code error that caused this, or if there is anyway to get around it? Having an entire year's worth of emails missing is really problematic for me as you can expect. Does anyone know how to remedy this?

Bar missing from mail so can't write or reply to emails

Hi
Updated iPhone 4S the other day and am not sure if it is coincidence but in mail, the bar at the bottom of the screen that allows you to create, reply to emails etc has vanished. Able to receive emails but can't reply or forward!
Using a hotmail account which I deleted from phone and reinstalled but still no joy.
Suggestions??????
Many thanks

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Number of unopened emails missing from mail

I migrated to maverick and for some reason in apple mail, my email accounts in the "inbox" won't show me how many unopened messages I have. How can I fix that?

I tried this and now the emails that I did have (that were empty) have disappeared completely and replaced with email from 2011. Any ideas what I should do now?

Most of my emails have disappeared from mail Inbox

Hello, last night my emails in my Mail inbox disappeared. I didn't notice at first because the last 10 days are still there, but then I realised that 4 years of email from 1 Nov 2012 up to 2008 (around 20,000 messages) are gone. There are a few for 2008 and then the rest - I had emails back to 2005 have also disappeared.
I am not aware of having done anything different last night - all I did was check my mail as usual - and it was only when I tried to search for an email that I realised my inbox now contains only 300 emails. When I go to iCloud it is the same story. Only 303 emails in my inbox. Trash only contains a few hundred, so its like these emails all just disappeared into the ether
I have no idea what to do or how this happened or what might have caused it. I run Lion 10.7.4 on an old black Macbook and have not installed anything new or upgraded software. I don't download unusual attachments so doubt it is a virus.
Is there any way to try to recover them - my inbox is my filing system so years of important stuff is missing. Any help would be very much appreciated.
thanks

Extract email addresses from email header - Sender (From) - Mail

Hi!
I would like to extract email addresses from email header from field "Sender (From)" and from email body in Mail at the same time.
I saw only scripts how to extract from email body.
I get emails asking for some informations about product and many people don't include their email address in the body, so I have to extract from email header as well.
I would like to extract email addresses from whole email account, separate alphabeticaly, delete duplicates and save it (separated by comma) in text file.
This I would use for sending massive email to all customers.
I'm on OSX 10.6.8.
Do you have please somebody script for extracting email addresses in the way:
1. select mail account
2. run script
3. save email addresses to txt file
Thank you for help and advise!

Hi Neville!
Last time I was writing basic programs in Turbopascal in 1996.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong...
1. I switched off in Mail "Use Smart Addresses".
2. I changed the path to my account in both commands:
Command A.
i=~/Library/Mail/[email protected]@pop.gmail.com # Input file path
o=~/Desktop/ # Output file path
n=`date "+%y%m%d%H%M%S"`-"addresses" # time stamped file name
grep -rh From: $i | grep -o '[-a-zA-Z0-9.]*@.[^>]*' | awk '!seen[$0]++' > $o$n
Command B.
grep -rh From: ~/Library/Mail/[email protected]@pop.gmail.com | grep -o '[-a-zA-Z0-9.]*@.[^>]*' | awk '!seen[$0]++' > ~/Desktop/`date \"+%y%m%d%H%M%S\"`"
3. I write commands in TERMINAL.
result of Command A:
List of couple emails same like before switching of "Use Smart Addresses"
I answered it already above:
It can extract to .txt file only email addresses from email header which includes after the name as well email address.
Example:
From: Neville Hillyer <[email protected]>
If there is in header only the name without the email address then it's not extracted (email is visible after secondary click on the name)
Example:
From: Neville Hillyer
I just checked that most of emails I have has in the emailheader only the name without the email address so I miss most of email addresses.
Result of Command B:
>
And nothing going on...
4. I tried the same in AppleScript editor
Result of Command A:
Syntax error. A unknown token can’t go after this identifier.
I changed the path but I still get syntax errors
(instead of i=~/Library... i put i= Users/muzaa/Library...)
Result of Command B:
Syntax error: A “from” can’t go after this identifier.
grep -rh From: /Users/radimmuzikant/Library/Mail/[email protected]@pop.gmail.com | grep -o '[-a-zA-Z0-9.]*@.[^>]*' | awk '!seen[$0]++' > ~/Desktop/`date \"+%y%m%d%H%M%S\"`"

3,000 emails just disappeared from Mail: help!

I installed 10.6.1 a week ago on my MacBook Pro (2.5 Ghz Intel Core Duo). There's 50gig of hard drive space free.
I looked in the Sent section yesterday and about 50 emails were logged as sent Today. Most of these were in fact written maybe 2-3 years ago. Weird -- and frustrating. (Last year under Leopard I noticed that a big chunk of sent emails had the wrong year: they all had different months and days but the year was 2008 instead of say 2006 or 2007. I did nothing about it at the time as I thought I could live with this.)
There were about 3,500 emails in the Sent section yesterday. Today there are just 300!
I went on to my me.com account to find that the title of the web page reads "MobileMe Mail - 3529 messages, 25 unread" -- and I can only seem to view these 25.
What can I do to get Mail working again properly?
Thanks! Chris

An addition to my above post... [I'm referring to the Mail 4.1 application by the way]
The only emails that remain in my Sent folder are the ones I sent Today, plus 1 from August (which I think is one which always used to appear FIRST when I switch to the Sent folder before it displayed the 3,500 other ones which were sent before and after it. (It had a few attachments.) Then a set of emails from Feb 6, 2008 to April 18 2008. A total, as I said, of about 350 emails. The other 3,000 have now disappeared but are still on the Mail application at me.com.
Both dates are interesting: I started using Mail around Feb 6 2008. Before that I sent maybe 2,000 emails via the web-based mail program at mac.com.
Around April 18 2008 I bought a new MacBook Pro, and used Apple's migration software to move all the applications and data from my old laptop to my new laptop before I started using the new laptop.
Hope all that helps!
Chris

Red number in box disappeared from Mail Icon

The red box that indicates the number of unread mail alongside the Mail icon (in the Dock) has disappeared.
Any ideas?
Power Book G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Just a guess ... I believe that the number reflects the emails in your Inbox. Is it possible that you have filtered stuff into other mailboxes?
