Email/IMAP problem

As of 1-27-12 I am not getting mail in my inbox on my MacBook Pro.  I can receive it on my iPad and iPhone. 
I have checked the settings for IMAP and it all looks normal.  Can anyone offer suggestions?  Thanks!

Hi Keith,
The problem started for me something like six months ago. Originally it was a rare occurrence so clicking retry once every now and then wasn't a big deal, but as I mentioned I now get the time-out virtually every time I send a message. I appreciate the message is successfully sent first, but I can't just ignore it as I need to have a copy retained in my Sent folder for my records.
Possibly the BTYahoo! servers that handle that function are much slower to respond now? I'll see if I can increase the time-out limit in Thunderbird. There is no time-out problem sending messages, just when saving the copy.
Once in a blue moon I don't get the error message but there is still no copy saved in the Sent folder. That is very annoying when it happens. Luckily that is still a very rare occurrence currently.
I'm really trying to establish whether this is a problem caused by my PC set up, or whether it's a problem with BTYahoo! email and there is nothing I can do at my end to fix it.

  • BTYahoo! Email IMAP - Problem saving messages in S...

    I have been using BTYahoo! email with IMAP for several years now. One problem that I never used to have has become more and more regular over the last six months or so. It is now at the point where I get this problem 95% of the time when sending messages.
    When I send a message it seems to get sent ok, but there is then a problem with saving a copy in the Sent folder. Almost every time it will trigger an alert in my e-mail client (currently Thunderbird) saying that the message could not be saved in the Sent folder. This alert appears after a short time-out limit is reached. At this point clicking the option to retry usually works, but sometimes it will just fail repeatedly and I have to cancel the attempt to save a copy.
    I have tried a different e-mail client program but got a similar error alert about not being able to save a copy in the Sent folder. To me that implies it is a problem with either my BTYahoo! email client settings or the server-side system.
    I'm using the same IMAP settings that I had used without issue for a long time.
    imap.mail.yahoo.com  -  port 993  -  SSL/TLS (normal password)
    smtp.mail.yahoo.com  -  port 465  -  SSL/TLS (normal password)
    I have tried changing the outgoing server to that below but it doesn't solve the problem.
    mail.btinternet.com  -  port 465  -  SSL/TLS (normal password)
    My questions are:-
    Has anybody else experienced a similar problem?
    Is anybody aware of any recent IMAP settings change that I need to apply to solve this?

  • Having email imap synchronization problems with outlook 365 proplus

    Hello,
    I have email imap synchronization problems with outlook 365 proplus.
    If I sent emails , my sent items box does not synchronized.
    This is really a bug, because I see more problems like this on internet.
    Please make ASAP a solution , this is not professional
    JMR

    Hi JMR,
    Assuming you are referring to Outlook 2013 by "outlook 365 proplus". This is actually because Outlook 2013’s IMAP implementation has changed when compared to previous versions of Outlook.
    While configuring the IMAP account, Outlook will talk to the IMAP server for the correct folders first. If Outlook 2013 can’t find the correct folder for the Sent Items in your mail server, it will create a folder which doesn’t sync with the mail server.
    To sync the Sent Items folder with IMAP server, we can try to root the mailbox:
    Go to FILE->Account Settings->Account Settings…
    Double click on your IMAP account.
    Click More Options… button, then Advanced tab
    Type "Inbox" as the "Root folder path"
    Hope this helps.

  • E72 and Nokia email Major problem

    Oh Nokia what have you done. I was using the Nokia email from nokia.email.com and in there I had my yahoo.com email account. You now longer let the yahoo.com address work inside the Nokia email.
    So now I had to manually add my yahoo.com email address into the E72, but everytime the phone checks for email, it takes up so much of the phone cpu power all else locks up. Even has dropped my phone call as the whole phone went into a CPU bound state...
    Nokia give me back my yahoo.com email in my nokia.email.com account. Let us add them back in. What have you done. You have basically killed anyone from using a Nokia E72 and yahoo.com email address.

    As for whether Yahoo is a paid service for pop email or not is not a debate here. If you are a Verizon FIOS or Comcast internet customer in the USA, you get the POP email of Yahoo free. I am one of these so it is free.
    But the fact remains. I used to use the Nokia email message service and had YAHOO as one of my email accounts. It picked up my yahoo.com email for over one year with very few issues. Onfe in a while I would have to restart the phone. Then last week it suddenly stopped.
    I called customer servuice and they told me that Nokia email service no longer would work as I had it, to delete the yahoo account and re-add it.
    When you re-add yahoo.com email address, it forces an IMAP setup (although I can tell you how to make the Yahoo pop work as I was able to override and trick the phone). As soon as you typ in any address @yahoo.com, it forces you to their IMAP setup within the Nokia E72.
    So in IMAP setup of yahoo.com email on my main Ey2  screen I have my yahoo.com email account dstatus displayed. It simply says YAHOO MAIL and in parenthesis the number of unread messages. so mine right now says Yahoo Mail (23)
    I have the phone set to check for email every 5 minutes... Pick up UPTO the last 100 messages and also pickup upto 500kb of email data (the old Nokia email message service way it would ask you HOW MANY WEEKS to go back and it would pick up most all email except not download attachments)
    When the phone checks. it deletes MOST every (NOT EVERY) message in the yahoo inbox. If you are wtaching the main screen, you see the "23" for the amount of unread go all the way down to 1 (never to zero I dont thing) and then count back up to either 23 or if new email is there, it will go higher.
    If you are in the yahoo inbox, you see the emails disappear and then re-appear as it deletes and re-synces all the email
    Now if you are unlicky to be on the cell phone during call when it does this re-sync, it take so much CPU, that soemtimes I drop, but if I am in the middle of talking, I "zap" out for a second or two and the other person is wondering what happened if I am in the middle of a sentence. Onc again the phone seems to be CPU bound and all else stops working exceopt the retrieval of that email.
    So MOST of the time when the phone is checking the yahoo account, it takes up so much CPU that the phone is basically unresponsive.
    I seem not to be the only one who is having issues with a Nomkia hone and Yahoo.com
    LOOK  here there are at least 2 others..
    /t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/Nokia-E7-email-syncronisation-problem/td-p/1030213
    /t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/E71-email-problem/td-p/1065247
    NOKIA's own support people told me that the NOKIA email program changed.  Yes it changed and now people are having issues with YAHOO.COM email.
    Nopw if you would lik to knopw how to setup YAHOO.COM on a pop.. simply\
    create ANY other POP account. It can be real or phoney. Then go back in and simply change the settings for yahoo.
    they are simple
    user name / login:  email address w/o the yahoo.com.
    pop: pop.mail.yahoo.com
    smtp:: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    password: hey its your password. dont ask me
    email adress: full [email protected]
    this seems to work. it does not kill the phone. It does not re-do all he email every time. 
    There is something about imap and yahoo.com email that you have messed up here and alot of us are seeing it.
    NOKIA what have you done?
    All I want back is what I had just over a week ago. Once of the best phones in the world, fully working with my eMail...

  • No TLS Encryption for emails (imap)?

    Hello,
    i've tried to get email with TLS encryption working on my Z10 with 10.1.0.4181 (and the Version before), without success. On my OSX and Android-Device its working perfectly.
    I have a second email imap account, with ssl only. This is working fine. But no TLS (not! StartTLS).
    Is this a general problem of BBOS 10 or a problem of my device? Any solutions?
    Kind regards,

  • Remote IMAP problems

    We have recently started hosting our email on our 'in-house' server. We can send and receive email with the following caveats:
    1) Outgoing SMTP messages get lost so I am temporarily relaying all outgoing email through our old ISP SMTP address. How do I set up local SMTP so that it works?
    2) For remote email IMAP and SMTP sending / receiving I have opened the corresponding ports on our firewall so that we can sync home computers / mobile devices to our email. Things seemed to work fine but now I am having all sorts of connection issues. The SMTP log is showing authentication problems.
    Help would be appreciated.

    When you move from MobileMe to iCloud, your active email addresses (@me.com, @mac.com, and all your aliases) move with you, along with all of your messages, mailboxes, and rules.

    You don't need to start a new thread to continue a conversation, you can just tack onto the original one. The settings I referred you to are for the Blackberry, since that's the device which is not receiving mail: anything which is working can be left alone.

  • New document: How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems

    Have you ever had problems with PDF attachments sent from Adobe Reader for iOS using Share > E-mail Document?
    You may find this document useful to avoid the problems.
    How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems
    Please let us know if you have encountered different types of problems with PDF attachments.  We can look for solutions or workarounds for you.

    Unfortunately, we (Adobe Reader mobile team) do not know if/when Apple will fix the attachment problems (software defects) in Apple Mail.
    In particular, the attachment problem with Microsoft Outlook (See Problem #2 in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems) appears to be a long-standing defect that has been known for years.  However, Apple has not provided any fix for Apple Mail yet.
    Adobe Reader for iOS merely launches Apple Mail (the default mail app on iOS) to send a PDF document as an attachment.  Adobe Reader has no control over whether or not to embed a preview image of an attachment in the body of an email message, which is known to cause the problem with Microsoft Outlook (on the receiving side).  The same problem happens when you send a single-page PDF document as an attachment along with an email signature from Apple iBooks on iOS.
    For now, all iPad/iPhone users can do is to avoid the problems by using the workarounds that are described in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems.
    When new and different problems with PDF attachments are reported by Adobe Reader for iOS users, we will update the document above.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.
