Email Appears then Disappears - Please HELP!!

Apple Mail 6.2 (1499)
This problem has plagued me since Snow Leopard if not eralier.  For some reason, email messages coming from my coworkers using the same email server (meaning the same domain name) appear momentarily and then reappear.  I've yet to find a solution to this and it's driving me crazy.  Oddly, I'm the IT Admin at the office and nobody else has this problem nor has had this problem.  Even more strange is that it seems inconsistent when this happens.  Sometimes I get the emails and sometimes I don't.  I don't know if it's related to whether I am cc'ed or emailed directly, if it's part of an email conversation or not. What's also weird is that of all of the IMAP accounts I have, this is the only one that does this and in Apple Mail the account and folders (drafts, deleted, sent, trash)  show up in my inbox - unlike the other accounts.  The others are further below on the Mailboxes panel with a little triangle toggle that shows all of the IMAP folders with the account.
At my wits end.
The account is an IMAP account
"Move deleted messages to the Trash Mailbox" is selected (not sure if it should be)
"Compactmailboxes automatically" is selected (not sure if it should be)
I have no rules to prevent me from receiving emails from my coworkers.
IMAP Path Prefix is blank
Port is 993
Mailhost is Dreamhost

Problem Solved- Atleast for me
After going through this issue for more than 3 weeks, I was able to find the solution. For me emails continue to disappear but it was totally random. Calendar and Contact also disappeared but not as often as mail.
The problem resides on Exchange OWA server. On IIS I have connection limit of 10 connections which we was causing this problem. After increasing the limit problem is gone.
STEPS
Search the logs under C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\HTTPERR for "503 1 ConnLimit", if you find this line then the solution is to increase the limit.
To do that, go to, IIS Manager, Right click on Default Website (where OWA is hosted), properties and go to Performance tab. Under Website Connections, increase your current limit. Restart IIS Admin and try IPhone mail again.

    After restoring, contacts appear then disappear. Help!

    I just got back from the Verizon store and the guy went to my settings and under each email, unsynced my contacts. I lost all my contacts, and it's a good thing I had a typed up a back up file on my computer before going but to my joy- IT WORKED! It's been a week and all my contacts haven't moved and have stayed. It's like a regular phone (contact wise).

  • Exchange email appears then disappears after one read !!

    Since installing OS 3.0 on my iPhone 3G my Exchange email appears then disappears after 1 reading.
    To get the emails back I go to the account settings and switch the Mail off (which removes the account and the folder format) then I switch the mail back on then the email are back again !!
    (if it can get through to the server, as I often get a Sever error message)
    Anybody else seen this problem?
    I don't use the Contacts or Calenders as currently through iTunes sync they seem OK.
    Note my Yahoo and other POP accounts have no problems.
    cheers

  • New emails appear then disappear

    I've had 2 emails pop up as notifications and by the time I open mail to read them they have disappeared. They aren't in junk or deleted.

    Same issue since did the last update with my mac mail.  Will see an email for a second and then it disappears.   Same for iPad, iPhone, on iCloud, macbook.   Did rebuild on the macbook of the email account and still saw the same issue this am.   Did  2 test send from gmail and neither have come thru.  They are not in trash or archive and no rules set and did search.   This is really bad for me because currently looking for a job and critical to see emails!   Any help would be greatly appreciated.   macbook pro - OS X Yosemite 10.10.2  Mail Version 8.2 (2070.6)    Note it is happening on all devices and mail is not found on web  iCloud mail either.

    Sorry should have said, when I log in my emails pop up momentarily. Then, it seems as if the pages aren't loading. A message comes up on the bottom left that the pages are loading, then errors occur and nothing happens.
    Thanks

    My camera and iBooks have stopped sending emails, the function and ability to create the email is still there but my iPad will no loner send the email or even store a draft on my account to suggest the email was ever written; please help I really need this functionality.

    Can you send any emails at all indicating that the mail app is working? Did you try any basic stuff yet?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Close those affected apps and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    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.

  • Running cs4 w/mavericks. won't print from PS. Printer icon appears then disappears -

    This started recently. I think I was in the middle of setting up a custom size for my epson 2880 when something happened. Now when I try to use the photoshop controls printing command, I'll hit print, it will start to respond, the printer icon appears then disappears and then nothing happens. I can print from other apps, I use quad tone rip for b&w and am now printing color using color sync, I can also print from LightRoom, but no luck through PS.

    Has most recent drivers.
    Yes, it will print from a PDF – it will print from preview, Acrobat, Word, OpenOffice - Anything other than InDesign it seems!
    Tried deleting and re-installing printer. No change, unfortunately.

    Hey ameeeno,
    It sounds like you are not getting the email to reset your password.  If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
    When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.

  • I'm now using iPhoto '11 (9.3.2), and none of the photos in my library will enlarge.  I can view them all as thumbprints, but when I click to enlarge just a black, blank space shows up.  Occasionally, one will enlarge for a second, then disappear.  Help!

    Just to clarify, I am not getting an "!" mark in a triangle, as I read others have experienced.  The screen is just blank except the grey flag in lefthand corner to flag the photo.
