"get mail" reloads entire inbox

When I try to "get mail" it reloads my entire inbox; every message. Have checked for updates, reinstalled mail from time machine, and deleted users > mail > library > MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3. Is there another e-mail program for Mac?

Hi StuNYC,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

Entire Inbox Gone - Mail 10.3.1

This morning I was getting the "overstuffed" error - message has not been downloaded, take the account online... I began deleting and archiving old mail when mail crashed. When I restarted it, my entire inbox was GONE.
I tried to import the mailbox from my library, but the import only contains a week's worth of mail. When I dragged the INBOX to the desktop, the file was 900 MB, so I think the mail might still be there... can anyone HELP!!?!?!?!?
Thanks!

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
An Overstuffed Mailbox is typically caused by size and large numbers of messages of diverse types -- please see:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121837
and the important link it contains of:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25812
There are a few conditions caused by files that might not be needed, if any were leftover from Jaguar's mailbox structure, but somewhat rare. After you read these, let me know what you find in this 900 MB mailbox, and any questions you may have.

When I open a slde show in New Yahoo Mail I can't get back to Yahoo. When I click on the "back to Yahoo" button, the screen freezes with a gray cast over it and I have to use the back button and forward button to get back to my inbox.

This problem started immediately after I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1
If I open my inbox in my New Yahoo Mail, then open an email with attachments and then open the attachments to "view as a slide show"....I can't close the slide show and return to the email by clicking on the "return to Yahoo" button. If you click on it, it returns to the first pic shown, and if you click on it again, the pics disappear and a gray haze appears over most of the screen but none of the features under the gray screen work. I have found that if I hit the back page and then forward page buttons, I can get back to my inbox eventually, but this is a terrible "pain in the ass"!

Can't get into talk talk email account in Mozilla, you have undefined new mails in your inbox message. No problem with Internet Explorer though

I've been using the Firefox browser for nearly a year now but for the past three days I can't open my tiscali email account via Firefox. The message "you have undefined new mails in your inbox" comes up. Talk Talk technical help says there is a problem with Firefox and advised me to use Internet Explorer. I can get into my account through Explorer but would much prefer to use Firefox so please help me out.

Apparently TalkTalk mail will work with Firefox 4 and Firefox 5 ''if'' you set the browser to ''lie'' to TalkTalk mail by saying that you are still using version 3.6.
You can find the instructions for that in a post on the TalkTalk forums: [http://www.talktalk.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=185113#post2452787 Firefox 4 & TalkTalk webmail - Forums].
Note: when you open about:config the first time, it will display a warning message that you should be careful with the changes you make. That's definitely good to bear in mind.
Does it work?

I cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account".

I suddenly cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying " (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account". It does not matter if I am trying to delete a single message or mulitiple messages. Can anyone help?

If you're running Leopard, as your profile says, then you need to post your question in that forum, not the Snow Leopard forums. So if you're really running Snow Leopard, you need to update your profile to show that, as well as give more details about what kind of mail accounts you have, and who your email provider is.

Make sure your Mac's software is up to date.
Click your Apple menu  top right in your screen.
From the drop down menu click Software Update.

Why do I get a copy of sent mail in my inbox? I don't want that.

You will have to contact Yahoo support. I can not help you here.

How do i get mail from iCloud that i did not get in inbox

ok try it this way.
simply put i see incoming messages in mail activity but do not get mail in inbox.
it's an @iCloud.com mail account along with @me.com account.

Lately, when I pull up my emails a popup tells me "Cannot Get Mail, the connection to the server failed." Yet, emails deposit in my Inbox. What is going on?

I reset my Ipad a few days ago. Now, whenever I check on my emails, I get a msg saying CANNOT GET MAIL, The Connection to the Server Failed. But, all my emails are there sitting in the Inbox. How can I eliminate this annoying notice?

Hello there nonozec,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you can receive emails, but you still get an error saying that Mail could not get your mail.
I would recommend this troubleshooting from the article named iOS: Unable to send or receive email found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
While the title of the article is about different symptoms, the troubleshooting portion is relevant.
All the best,
Sterling

HT1277 Hi there, From time to time all inbox messages just disappear. Just then they disappeared when I clicked on " get mail". Yesterday they js=ust vanished? Please help. I have set up as Imap on laptop and iphone.

HI,
I have just set up mail and every now and then the entire inbox just vanishes. This has happened 3 times in 2 days??? Any thoughts?

Mac HD says 2.49.72GB and 151.88 used??
That's impossible. I think you mean to say that your HD capacity is 249.72 GB, and you've used 151.88 GB. You do have enough free space, so that means something else is going on to cause this problem.
Aside from setting up the Gmail account(s), did you install or update anything just prior to this problem starting? If so, what were those items?
I didn't mention any extension, so I'm assuming you're referring to seventy one's mention of TM (Time Machine). That is a built-in backup method that you can choose to take advantage of, but I would not do it, since it's not all it's cracked up to be. What you need is to setup and maintain every day a bootable backup of your entire hard drive. You can do that with SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner. You don't need an Airport device for these, nor Time Machine; in fact, I would shy away from using wireless for such things, as it's often more of a problem than a benefit.
Also, there may be problems with your hard drive, so I would boot your Mac from the install disc, choose your language, then wait about 15 seconds for the menu bar at the top to appear and choose Utilities->Disk Utility and Repair Disk. If it comes back with any errors that can't be fixed, post them in your reply. But if not, then run Repair Permissions, and all you need to concern yourself with is the message at the end that 'Permission repair completed'; ignore anything else as long as you see that message.
Then reboot your system and restart Mail and setup your account(s) again (assuming it's not there because you deleted the IMAP mail folder and the Envelope Index file. In the future, don't throw things away unless you know the consequences of doing so; you'll end up being unfortunately surprised when you lose critical information.

Getting mail to automatically move messages out of inbox

Hi,
I'm not that great at keeping my inbox organised and I wondered if there is a way to get Mail to automatically move messages from my inbox to another folder when they are over a certain number of days old? I've tried rules, but learnt that doesn't work because it only applies to incoming messages, a smart mail box but that does move the messages but collects them. I also tried to do an automator workflow but can't find an action to move messages?
I'm not tech-savy enough to start writing scripts and I wondered if anyone knew of a simple solution.
I'm using mail v4.5 and OSX 10.6.8
Many thanks
James

Hi Uri,
I think it's not possible using standard XI mail adapter (settings do not provide any filtering options), and I'm even not sure POP3 or IMAP allow you to pull specific msgs according to selection criterias (I may be wrong) ... So if one of this protocol allows it, I think you'll have to go for a custom mail adapter that will fulfill your need !
Otherwise (and this is what we've done), you can pull all msgs, route them according to its attributes (sender, subject, recipient) to the corresponding targets and when XI is not able to deal with some msgs, ignore them (in the rcv determination, select the corresponding option so no error is raised when recv det does not succeed) ...

My e-mail automatically deletes read e-mail in my inbox every 14 days without my permission. How do I get this to stop?

I switched e-mail clients from windows live to thunderbird in mid december to alleviate problems in sending group e-mail. I have thunderbird on a different laptop and the product works flawlessly. The client works flawlessly with one exception: It automatically deletes any read e-mail in my inbox every 14 days without any input from me. I have had ITOK & Hughes.net look at the problem as I am using my inbox as a staging area for for pending business that tracks progress of different events. I have checked settings and there are no evident features that I can switch on or off with that time frame. This has occurred 3 times since December and I have resorted to printing e-mails to prevent loss of data.
The desktop uses windows 7, IMAP for incoming mail...

Log into your account at the providers web mail page and look for any retention options that might be there. Do not put too much into what their help desk tells you. Most help desk agents are lucky to know that the ringing sound means to answer the phone.
