Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
Rebuild mailbox
If that doesn't work, try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

Email disappeared from Mac Mail.

Hello. Email has disappeared from Mac Mail. Running last updated Mavericks. I went back in the time machine settings to revert to the day before the mail disappeared, and each time I go in there, I can see the mail showing up. Except, when I go to revert, nothing transfers back into the account. Any advice on what is going on and how to fix it? Years of mail are now "gone."

Okay, there is definitely an error message coming up in the log. I only selected a few messages from 2008 to restore. I selected just one of the error log messages I received (essentially one for each email it tried to restore). Thanks for all your help. As an aside, if it helps you to respond, I've just started a computer science degree, so I'm starting to feel my way around this stuff, but have a good cursory understanding. Not to say that your directions aren't just succinct and perfectly laid out!

Exchange Archive folder disappears from Mac Mail (Mavericks)

My Exchange 2013 Archive mailbox folder keeps disappearing from Mac Mail (Mavericks). When it does, the mailbox/folder shows 0 messages and 0 size in the Account info box. To temporarily solve the problem, I disable the account, quit mail, and reenable the account. Then the Archive folder/mailbox reappears. This happens several times per day. By the way, the folder is still visible on Outlook Web Access and through the Outlook client. It is simply invisible to Mac Mail. Does anyone know how to solve that?

Well, somehow, it disappeared after 10.8.2. and the following fixes which had no numbers.
Mail startet and told me, that Mailbox is somehow adapted and now everything works fine.
Strange....

Gmail emails disappearing from my Mail inbox

Hi,
I use the Mail program to manage my emails on my MacBook Pro (as well as my iPad and iPhone). I recently set up a gmail account and have been having a strange problem. Sometimes after I read a gmail, it disappears from my Mail Inbox folder. I haven't been able to figure out a pattern as it doesn't seem to do it every time. When our IT manager configured my computer for gmail, I ended up with a Gmail folder and two subfolders called "All Mail and one called "Important" on my Mail desktop. I told him I didn't want or need those folders but he couldn't get rid of them. When the gmails disappear from my Mail Inbox, I can always find them in one or both of these Gmail folders. But the problem is I get so many emails I don't always notice that one has disappeared until it is too late! This is causing some significant problems. No one has been able to figure out how to stop these emails from moving on their own. Our IT manager is more familiar with PCs than Macs. I hope you can help!! It's very frustrating!

No. The email never makes it to me. It is on my iPhone for an instant, but then it disappears. It never makes it to my Outlook on my computer, and it is not in the Junk Mail, Deleted Items, or in my Sonic Wall Spam Filter box. There are 4 other people in my office, and I know that at least 2 of them are having the same problem. I can't tell if this is a problem with my iPhone or my Exchange Server. Help!

Links in e-mails from Mac Mail Application won't open in a web browser

I use my Mac Mail application for all my e-mail accounts. I switched from Safari to Mozilla Firefox and now links I try to click on in my e-mails do not open in a mozilla browser as I they did when I had Safari as my main browser. I've tested Chrome and Safari and the links open when clicked using both of those browsers. However, I prefer Mozilla to both of those and would like to get this working as it is a convenience to have to copy and paste links every time.

Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. In the Finder, go to /Applications/ and try to open Mail by double-clicking on it. Look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. They may provide some clues.
In the meanwhile, try reinstalling the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for PowerPC
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for Intel
After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

Auto display HTML attachments in body / email sent from mac mail

Hi,
One of my clients has received an email written in MAC Mail, the email doesn't display correctly instead what would be the body of the email appears as an html attachment, he doesn't want to have to click the attachment to preview it as he doesn't have to
do this on the iphone (also an apple device hmm....), I cant see any way of making it auto display the html in the body without clicking it.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
Can you confirm if the sender has this problem sending emails to other recipients?
Please logon your Webmail(or OWA), does that message display as an attachment as well?
If other Outlook recipients also see the email body as an attachment and you can verify it shows as an attachment on Web as well, I'm afraid we should blame the Apple Mail Client, since I've seen some Apple Mail users have this problem:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1947994?tstart=0
Kindly have the sender check if the setting like Edit > Attachments > Send Windows friendly Attachments
has been checked.
If I'm not getting this wrong, we should confirm this issue with Apple:
https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa
Feel free to post back of course.

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!

I am unable to email attachments from mac mail

I have a new Macbook Air with Moutain Lion. I am using Mac Mail. When I first started, i could add only a few attachments but now I cannot add a single one. This renders Mac Mail almost useless. I've tried adding/deleting accounts, checked all imap options, tried different ISP emails and new user, rebuilt mailbox, and on and on. I thought it might be a file privelage thing, but I don't think so. Drag and drop adds an empty icon.
Any help is welcomed. I will need to move onto a different app if I can't fix this.

Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then drag or copy the text — do not type it — into the Terminal window and press return:
ls -1A {/,}Library/Mail/Bundles 2> /dev/null
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

.mac account disappears from Mac mail

Often I will go to my Mail app and the .Mac Account is no longer displayed. If I quit mail and reopen, it and its folders stored there at .Mac will be displayed.

My wife has a sub-account on our MM family pack subscription and had this issue: occasionally mail on her iPhone would appear briefly in the iPhone inbox, then disappear from the list. It never showed up in Mail.app at all. (I have the master account on this family pack and haven't had this issue… knock on wood.)
I was also a recipient on some of those mails -- but if I forwarded them to her she still didn't get them. I had to copy the text out of the messages and paste into a new mail. That worked. So it seems there's something in the mail header (perhaps?) that causes this… yet the mails have not all been from the same person / address. In fact, mail from person "A" might do this disappearing thing today, yet mail from the same person "A" might work fine tomorrow. It's that sort of multi-variable, intermittent problem that's very hard to pin down.
I tried changing her password -- to guarantee that only her known clients were logging in (no lurking POP mail readers that she'd forgotten about). No effect. Then I tried turning off her junk filters, both local and online at MobileMe (thinking maybe some rule was out of control -- deleting random messages, rather than filing them as junk). No effect (other than a lot of complaints from her about junk in her inbox, of course).
Finally, she suggested that maybe it had to do with MM push services -- since it only happens on the iPhone, not on her Mac. We turned off push on her iPhone and voila! It seems to have fixed the issue.
I haven't found anyone else who's connected this with data push on the iPhone. I'd be interested if other folks who try this as a solution would see if it works for them and post results here.

How to delete old email aliases from Mac Mail?

I have been a Mac user since the '90s and like many, evolved up from the original OS X to today's Lion. 10 years ago, we created email aliases in a very early version of Mac Mail and today, they still populate the drop-down menu when I'm selecting the email account to send from. Since there are 3 total aliases x 2 accounts (.Mac and .Me), I have 6 unneeded addresses which I'd like to delete.
I cannot use iCloud for this, as it shows that I do not have any aliases.. so there is nothing to delete.
Any ideas on how to clean up the email address drop-down and delete the old aliases?
Thanks everyone!
Eric

Open Mail's preferences, and edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Delete any servers for these accounts.
You said you checked iCloud for this. I assume you meant you went to iCloud.com and checked the accounts there for aliases.

Sent emails disappearing from Apple Mail

Hello, I'm finding that sent emails are disappearing from my sent folder in Apple Mail. I was having this issue with the account's IMAP settings, so I've deleted the account and used the Exchange settings – same issue. It was working fine for a while, and then they've stopped saving in the sent folder altogether.
If I send emails through webmail, there's no issue.
Machine / Software –
OS X 10.10.2 on an iMac 21.5" 3.06Ghz Core i3 with 12GB of RAM

Have exactly the same problem.
Sent six emails, without realising they wouldn't get saved in Sent Folder.
Moreover, i messaged one of the people i sent an email to and he told me the email did not arrive?

i need emails back on hotmail server for access to old emails when working out and about with ipad.
I do not know if you can unfortunately, having deleted them from the POP server and as Hotmail does not offer an iMap or Exchange solution for OSX they may be 'marooned'
I will search around and see if I can find a solution.
But before anything else happens backup your mail (Mailbox Menu>Export Mailbox) and save the file somewhere you can find it, you probably don't need to hear this but you should be (have been) backing up regularly, for this and many other reasons.
I'll post back if I can find a solution to the issue.

Can anyone tell me how to move my email addresses from Mac Mail to Thunderbird

Hi all.
I've been having so many problems with Mac Mail that I decided to give Thunderbird v17 a go. It automatically imported my emails and account settings but hasn't imported my email addresses. I know they'll automatically be added as and when I reply to incoming emails but I assumed there would be some way of adding my existing contacts in one go. Searched the net for a solution but came up empty-handed. Any help you can give me will be much appreciated.

See how annoying really large text is? Don't do that next time.

Mail disappearing from Mac Mail - iCloud

There has been a fair few people with the same problem. I have reset my Apple Id password and this seems to have solved the problem.

smart mailboxes are not actual mailboxes. they are saved searches. if something disappears from it it means that the original was deleted from whatever mailbox it was sitting in. For example, it could be that those messages were in trash and you have your trash emptied periodically.

Question marks in emails sent from mac mail client
