Gmail POP - iPhone not receiving new emails

I have my iPhone setup to retrieve my Gmail through POP. Everything has been working great until last week, when the phone quit receiving new messages.
I was able to create a IMAP connection and it worked fine, but that's not how I want to retrieve my mail.
I am able to temporarily correct the problem by creating a second POP email connection. Once it's created and retrieves mail, the original account starts working again. I can then delete the new account. I've had the problem 3 times and so far this has corrected the problem. Simply disabling the new account and re-enabling when I need the fix, doesn't work.
When it's not working, there are no error messages. I just as if there's just nothing to retrieve.
Has anyone else seen this problem or know what the cause might be?
Thanks.

  • Gmail and Zimbra EAS not receiving new emails

    Gmail and Zimbra are not receiving new emails.  I've switched the polling interval from '5 minutes' to 'as items arrive'.  Hitting the refresh button does nothing.
    I haven't tried changing my calendar or contact entries.  I don't know if new ones are being picked up.
    Everything was working fine yesterday morning, and then I noticed I hadn't received an email in about an hour, and I checked on gmail.com, and my internal zimbra web client.  Both had many emails.
    I don't want to have to delete and re-add the account because then I'll have to re-link all my contacts.  I use gmail EAS because I like the option of turning on push email if I want.
    Gmail is not throttling me because my ipod touch works perfectly (and has always worked perfectly).
    I haven't downloaded any new apps or changed any configurations prior to this error.

    Zimbra appears to work now. Gmail EAS is still not working. I have tried sending messages, but they are still just sitting my in outbox.

  • I am not receiving new email alerts on iphone 4s. I have powered down and also deleted the email account and reset all notification. I have to manually fetch all emails

    Please help with new emails. I am not receiving new email notification. I have to manually fetch all emails. I have contacted Apple several times. I have powered device all the way down, reset me.com. My me.com account works great on Mac. Please help

    So all email notifications were not coming thru...from any source. Talked to another Apple text and he advised me to shut down the multitask bar at the bottom. So far so good. Seems kind of strange because the problem had only started about a month ago. I've had the phone since August

  • My iCloud account is not receiving new emails.

    <My iCloud account is not receiving new emails>
    I wasn't even using Mail at the time but all of a sudden I was prompted for the iCloud password, but it wasn't accepted, I tried it several times. 
    So I changed the password through iforgot.apple.com.  I entered the new password in the Account Preferences window.
    I am still not receiving new emails. 
    Does anyone have a suggestion or clue?

  • I am not receiving new emails on my phone.  I am receiving a pop-up that reads "cannot get mail" saying my server is not responding and to check my settings.  My settings are correct. Help!

    Looking for help.... I keep getting a pop-up message on my phone stating that my server is not responding and to check my settings.  My settings are fine.  Any advice on what I can do to receive new emails on my phone?  Help!

    For a few weeks I have been using the GMail app on my iPhone 4S to get mail without problem.  When I wanted to check something in Apple's Mail app, which has worked well for years, I now get a message for my principal email address that the server is "not responding," even though the same server is responding to my GMail app.  For some reason, when I dismissed the message in Mail, it popped up again, but then could be dismissed.  Did something change in Mail that requires some imap addresses be deleted and readded?  Any idea?
    I would not want to think that Mail is programmed to befuddle if it is ignored too long.

  • Nokia E72 - I'm not receiving new emails!

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem about receiving new emails, the latest email the phone shows is from 09. august 2010 but should be 8 or 9 emails yesterday. 
    I've deleted the e-mail account and created new one and it's the same! Do you have solution for me??? The type of e-mail account is "other" (not OVI mail or Gmail and so on). And the settings seem to be correct since I receive the mail until 9. august.....
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    THX for your help, I just "solved" it, what I did was that I created an OVI account then deleted my other account and created it again then it works ( as an account nr. 2)..... If this happens again I'll try your method it's much easier!!!! By the way I'm using IMAP.
    But thank you for you help 

  • NOT RECEIVING NEW EMAILS

    5 days ago my ipad3 stopped updating/receiving emails.
    It is connected to internet and everything else is working, but the 'link' to my laptop seems to be broken.
    I still of course see my new emails on my laptop!
    I get my emails thru' Yahoo. I have icloud installed.
    How can I get the ipad to update/receive new emails?
    This seemed to coincide with losing my YOUTUBE. The icon on the desktop was replaced by WORLD TIME ZONES!
    I don't know why!
    Help please
    Roy

    Apple omitted the original YouTube app from iOS 6.
    Look for this YouTube app at the App Store for an alternative > 
    I have iCloud installed
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Mail then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a minute or two to sync.

  • Mail not receiving new emails

    Since installing the latest update my Mail won't receive any new emails from my business account run through gmail.
    [email protected]
    Receiving fine on iPhone and through Thunderbird.
    Is anyone else having issues with Mail?
    Regards

    I am having the same problems. I am not receiving email to one of the six addresses I have in Mail. Ever since I updated to Mavericks, I've had problems with Apple Mail. I checked the activity and conneciton doctor, everything is green and connection is fine, but no email. I only receive the message if I quit mail and restart.
    I've been using apple for 10 years, and in the last year or so noticed they are going the way of windows in that there programs don't "just work" anymore. There are more and more issues creeping up with each new update.

  • Mail not receiving new email messages.

    The Mail application on my 2006 MacBook has stopped retrieving new messages. The Mac is running 10.5.8, and the Mail is version 3.6. I have not made any changes to the mail preferences in years. I have two email accounts configured: my Gmail as well as my university email account.  Comcast is my internet provider. About a week ago, the incoming email was slow to update. I would click "Get Mail", and it would pull in only 4-5 emails at a time. I would re-click "Get Mail" several times until all the new mail was retrieved. But for the past 4 days, no new mail is coming in.  When I click on "Get Mail", the wheel next to both accounts spin like they are working, but nothing happens. There is no error message given (such as "no internet connection"). I have tried the mailbox "rebuild" on both accounts several times, as well as rebooting the computer. (When in doubt, reboot!).
    The outgoing emails I send from Mail are being received by the recipients, so I know the connection is working in that direction!  The Comcast internet is working, and I can log in to my Gmail account through the web and view my emails there just fine. I'm also receiving the new emails on my iPod Touch. So, I know there are new emails, but they are not coming to my MacBook.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks for the suggestions, BDAqua. Unfortunately, the new mail is still not coming in.  I am still able to send mail out through Mail (I did another "test" mail to myself, then checked it on Gmail.com).
    A couple of comments & questions (to make sure I was doing things correctly):
    The "Connection Doctor" had all green dots. So, that all looks OK.
    What do I do with the Mail folder and Envelope Index file that I had moved to my desktop during the Safe Boot? Right now, they are just still sitting on my desktop while in normal start-up mode.
    When you said "redo to Rules", I moved the two files you mentioned into the trash. Is this what I was supposed to do? Should I "empty trash" to make sure they are gone?
    After I ran through your suggestions once, I did the "safe boot" again and re-ran the Disk Utility "Repair Permissions". Of the things it found, none seem to be Mail related. But, just for kicks, I'll paste the results log below.
    Any other ideas? I am able to get my mail through Gmail.com, so it's not the end of the world if I never get this fixed. Just annoying!

  • Not receiving new emails to Droid Lucid

    I have my personal email set up on my phone but I am not being notified of new messages and when I click on the Email icon on the Home screen my phone is telling me that I have no messages when I actually do have messages in my inbox.

    I received a message on my phone yesterday that said there has been a change in your SIM card and all the email accounts that you have will be deleted.  I had been clicking cancel but today I clicked on OK and then it took me through restoring the Hotmail email and now all of the sudden I can see my Hotmail inbox with all my messages.  The SIM card was changed the same day I got my phone which was a week and a half ago.  Strange but it looks like it works now.  Thanks for your help.  Now to figure out how to add my work email (Outlook).   Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2012 13:24:34 -0600
    Hello Stacey_D!
    It’s important to be able to retrieve email on your device as well as from a computer.  I would like to assist with correcting this problem.
    First, I’d like to thank the other Community members for the great feedback & suggestions!
    I have a few questions to determine the root cause of the problem.  How many email accounts do you have on your Lucid?  Is this happening with all email accounts, or one specific?  Is this a POP3/IMAP or Exchange email account?  Please check the email account settings to ensure the correct credentials are entered for the email account to work properly:  http://bit.ly/Iz1iYl  Let me know how this works out so I can further assist.
    Thanks,

  • My Gmail app tab is not glowing when I receive new email

    On Firefox 4, when I received new email my Gmail app tab would glow. Now when I have Firefox 5, it no longer works. Is it a setting issue or a version issue?

    HI,
    I have found this to be somewhat intermittent.
    I often miss the first "new Message" that is sent, no matter which service it is with.
    However after I have replied at least once I can bring other apps to the front and then I hear the Sound and the Notification appears.
    As of yet I have not discovered though, a way to make it work first time every time like it should.

  • Mail does not create new emails based on the highlighted mailbox, but rather the receiving mailbox of whatever individual email happens to be highlighted. This was not the case prior to Lion. Is this a bug or an error on my part?

    Mail does not create new emails based on the highlighted mailbox, but rather according the receiving mailbox of whatever individual email happens to be highlighted. This was not the case prior to Lion. Is this a bug or an error on my part? (I do have the setting for creating new emails from the highlighted mailbox checked.)

    The questions about time was not only because of thinking about the Time Machine, but also possible impact on recognizing which messages remaining on a POP server (doesn't apply to IMAP) have been already downloaded. In the Mail folder, at its root level, in Mail 3.x there is a file named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 that should prevent duplicate downloading -- some servers may not communicate the best with respect to that, and the universal index must certainly be involved in updating that index file. If it corrupts, it can inhibit proper downloading. However, setting the account up in a New User Account and having the same problem does not point that way, unless your POP3 server is very different from most.
    That universal index is also typically involved when messages are meant to be moved from the Inbox to another mailbox -- in Mail 3.x the message does not move, but rather is copied, and then erased from the origin mailbox. That requires updating the Envelope Index to keep track of where the message is, and should keep track of where it is supposed to have been removed after the "Move".

    I talked with a tech today and he said I cloud is having problems which should be resolved shortly.
    In the mean time I used the .me smtp server settings which allowed me to send mail.

    You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining.  WHat is the issue here?

    Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.
