HTML Mail message deletion

After installing the new Leopard OS, deleting any single html mail message (such as Borders or Amazon announcements) can take up to five minutes. If I shift and delete several items at once, up to ten minutes. Why is it so slow when it used to be an instantaneous deletion?

I cannot open any of my Hotmail e-mail messages, delete them, look at other old ones, nothing. All I can do is sign in and that is it. I have tried deleting cookies, clearing the cache space, rebooting the computer, rebooting my internet connection, refreshing the page several times. Here is the thing. I can get on the page and read my mail, etc. like normal if i use Internet Explorer, but I prefer Firefox. The problem is Firefox and I rely on my e-mail for job purposes. I hope someone can help me!!!

Nevermind. I finally found a third party answer and will post it for anyone else with my problem.

Using Safari to send HTML Mail message but Mail keeps dropping images?

I'd like to use Safari to send html Mail messages, but when I click on File>Mail Contents... Mail opens a new window but my graphics are gone. (I'm creating the html pages using MS Word for the Mac.) I get a flash of the graphics for a second, and then they are replaced by a little blue lego. Any ideas? I've tried all kinds of mail preferences but nothing seems to help.

Figured it out (at least one way): had to load the image to a server and then add the image as a link only (uncheck "save picture with document" box).

IMAP Mail Messages Deleted Not Moved to Trash on Server

Hi, I'm having a heck of a time trying to get the server to update my account after I delete e-mail messages using my IMAP account in Mail. I am using Mail Version 2.0.7 and my Mailbox Behaviors in Preferences>Accounts for Trash are set to Move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox and NOT TO Store deleted messages on the server, and I Permanently erase deleted messages that are One week old. My question is, even after I move messages to my Trash, then right click on it and delete them permanently, they are still hanging out on the server, and I can see them through my online account, even after syncing. I set my online Preferences for Composing to Move Deleted Messages to Deleted Messages, but it is never happening, unless I delete them again online. Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be great! Thanks,
Justen

Have you tried rebuilding (Menubar > Mailbox > Rebuild) the Inbox, Trash, and other associated mail folders? (If Rebuild is grayed out and you have multiple accounts, you will have to expand the view of the Inbox, Trash, and other associated mail folders containing these messages and select each affected account's Inbox, Trash, and others, separately, so Rebuild won't be grayed out.)

Find & replace in HTML mail message to change color

I have a script someone wrote for me to automatically print my school's attendance list when it comes into my inbox. I have a very limited understanding of AppleScript, but it seems to clean up the message and then send it to print. The one thing I would like to change is the color of the banner at the top of the page which is blue (coded cyan in the html) since it keeps using up all of the blue ink in my printer before the other colors. I am pasting the script below. How can I include some lines that will change cyan to gray or even white?

Hello
As my goal is only to check that what I wrote runs correctly, I commented all your code which is not of "my responsability".
I ran the "stripped code" and got exactly what was wished: the words "Date:" and "Subject:" are in bold while all the remaining text is in plain .
At this time I am unable to apply Times to the plain text.
You may check the "stripped script" and when you will be convinced that this piece of code does its duty, you will have to search what is the wrongdoer in your own code.

Mail Messages Deleted on IMAP Server

My email is on a server at DreamHost.com and I retrieve it with Apple Mail 7.3 with Mac OS X 10.9.5. My Mail preferences are set to IMAP. However, whenever I retrieve mail, the messages download, but the server versions get deleted. I can no longer see them in the RoundCube webmail client. My understanding is that by using IMAP the messages should be retained on the server. Is there any settings in Mail that would cause this to happen?

I have rules from my POP days that move my emails to local folders in Apple Mail.
Which of course moves them off of the server.
Make these folders in the Imap account, not the local one.

Mavericks Mail: Has anyone experienced multiple messages deleting on one click?

Earlier today I began to see multiple mail messages deleted in one click. At first I thought I might have been clicking too fast and was causing the problem, but I have verified that was not the case. It occured several times on message threads, but also on unique messages not related.
This is very concerning as I now have to look in the Trash to ensure I did not miss any important messages. Lots of strange behavior with the Mavericks upgrade - is a fix coming out soon?

I used to find this happening with older version of OSX after I did my usual 6 month clean, wipe, re-install and resume.
It's possible that the file which keeps a track of message downloaded from the server is corrupt. Goto ~/Library/Mail where "~" is your home folder and then delete these files
Envelope Index
LSMMap2
DefaultCounts
Next goto each account ".mbox"
This is in ~/Library/Mail then a folder which contains your email address example "Mac-steve.jobs"
inside there should be a folder list something similar to this:
Junk.imapmbox
Sent Messages.imapmbox
INBOX.imapmbox
Drafts.imapmbox
Deleted Messages.imapmbox
Inside each of them is a folder, called "Messages" and also some files, delete the files but not the "Messages" folder.
When you reopen Mail it will be as if you opened it for the first time. See if the emails come in, if they do then it's more likely to be a setting in Mail or even possibly something that's happening at the remote email server.
In Mail Right or Control Click in the left hand panel and select "Get Info" a box will come up with a drop down selection at the top showing active email accounts, select the one you are having problems with, either a list of folders will come up or a big long list of email messages, depending on how many you have will depend on how long it takes for the list to update. Once it has, select all the emails and Select "Remove From Server" this will delete them all from the server so at least when you re-open Mail they don't all come in again.
Hope something in here helps

How do I integrate sound within a mail message?

Hello,
I need to integrate sound within a mail message. That is, when the recipient gets the message the sound will autoplay.
I tried attaching the sound file (small mp3) to an HTML mail message and autoplay it using the BGSOUND or EMBED HTML tags (referring to a content-id that I set with MimeBodyPart.setHeader( ) ), but the sound was not played when the message was opened by the recipient...
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lior.

Of course not. Mail clients are being fixed so that they don't automatically execute attachments in messages any more. Far too many viruses were being spread that way. Even JPG images were being used to transmit viruses.

Mountain Lion Mail randomly deletes messages: locally and from server

Hello,
Mountain Lion Mail deletes mails randomly, locally and from the IMAP server.
I have confirmed this for a fact:
- I have been forwarded lost mails to another (webmail) account: the timestamps indicate that some mails were lost somewhere before I ever saw them on Mail
- my mail service provider confirmed that their logs show mails that I never saw on Mail
- the lost mails don't appear via webmail, either, i.e. they're not on the server
Others are experiencing the same in Lion:
http://www.seifi.org/email/lion-mail-app-deletes-imap-emails-without-notice-gmai l-important-fix.html
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206902
I became aware of this as my customer referred on the phone to messages from them that I had never seen. And, Mail deletes messages randomly from the IMAP server too - it's literally eating messages!
No, this is not a rule issue. No, this is not anything I could have done to cause. This should be evident as very many others are experiencing the same (see the above links).
This is the worst bug I've ever encountered in any Apple product.
Apple need to acknowledge this and address it, like, immediately.
Is there a fix for this? One that works 100% - I really can't risk not receiving business e-mail.
br Janne

I'm experiencing something similar. I see a message being received in Mountain Lion via notification. When I'm going to look for this mail, it's gone.
I dont't have any rules set up and no mail plugins installed. The mail is also vanished from the server. I'm using IMAP on my own web-site (via a service provider). I was able to verify, that a certain message from a certain sender dissapeard, which had a PDF attached. I thought it might have something to do with my ISPs virus protection, but they a) insured me, that they don't delete any mail and b) I got a new mail from someone I don't know this morning. Again: Saw the notification, afterwards the mail is gone.
For now, I will switch to ThunderBird (this was also the recommendation of my ISP).
Kind regards

I accidently deleted a voice mail message. Is there any way to retrieve it? I was told I had to reset my password since I entered the wrong one three times.

Depends on your carrier. You'll have to contact your carrier for how to do this. (This is for AT&T: http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=52649#fbid=WLddP4KyTAu.)

Is there any way to select all mail messages and delete them?

I get lots of mail, and most of it I don't keep, or keep over on my MacBook. Is there a way to select all the Mail messages and delete them, or do I need to go through them one at a time?
many thanks!

<Edited by Host>

In your inbox in the phone you can mark the mails one by one and then tab delete.
In Trash you can delete all with one tab.

How can I retrieve a mail message that was accidentally deleted. It's not in the trashcan.

After 10.9.4 Update: Mail Messages Grey Out Upon Deleting-Don't Move to Trash?

Hello,
After 10.9.4 Update/MacBook Pro with Retina display: Mail Messages Grey Out Upon Deleting-Don't Move to Trash? I believe I must join those who are having trouble with mail after this latest update. Deleted messages just turn a light grey in the message panel and don't move to trash until after I quit and restart mail. I have also experienced the screen "Freezing" ... no spinning beach ball, just the pointer frozen. This has happened only when I use mail and requires a "hard" re-start to correct. Is this a "feature" of the update, or is it a problem? Thanks!

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Back up all data.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -N {} + -type d -exec chmod +x {} + 2>&-
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
Quit Mail and empty the Trash. If you still can't, log out or restart the computer.
