Import INBOX sorting for 9 hrs? no messages in view pane

Hi,
I'm in the midde of an Import of all my messages and folders from my old e-mail app (Entourage 2004). I brought everything into Mail 2.0 except some junk mail folders and other unwanted folders. Importing up around 4,000 messages - divided and organized into several folders (now called mailboxes??). I rerouted / file my daily mail from numerous e-mail accounts a list of Rules in my old app. The import is taking a while, but I already notice some problems like location of my old folders and not being able to view messages in the list pane (from a full folder). I have some other questions for some experts.
Cutturent Status:
Emptied all unwanted/old mail off my server before the import.
Rewrote all my rules from Entourage IN TO Mails rules.
Re-opened POP accounts for each of e-mails in Mail.
Now importing all the desired folder/messages from Entourage.
Question 1:
When the import is done, in order to make my folders look like they were before (order, color, results of mail rule actions), can I DRAG the stacked folders out of the IMPORT folder that Mail brought them in, and move them to the base level of the directory?
Question 2:
Can I drag my huge amount of SENTmail from the IMPORT folder and drop it into Mail's Sent folder (so it looks like I sent it all from this app?
Same goes for DRAFTS?
Question 3:
Why do all the messages import to Mail as Unread Status?
Question 4:
When I sinngle click on an imported folder that has a highlighted number of messages enclosed, why does nothing show up in the message list pane? I want to see all these messages, change their status to READ and keep them in these folders for reference...but I can't see them (but they are in the folder right? Why can't I see the contents? A setting?
Question 5:
Is there a way to keep the useful "activity window" open all the time?
Doing a full import to Mail is a little like culture shock...but like coming home from a trip in Microsoft land.
Thanks for help!!
I find these boards very useful.

Seems we've both noticed this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1494219
My Mail.app just started doing this one day. Without warning, it just started sorting forever and never ever stops. Right now it's been running for like 30 minutes, the status bar dividing the toolbar and the blank email list says "Working Offline — 278 Messages — Sorting messages" and that little working icon is animating on its far right.
I stopped using Mail.app about 4 months ago because I couldn't solve the problem.
All I want to know is the location of every file used by Mail.app. If I can simply delete all these files and start from scratch, I will be satisfied. Well, I won't be satisfied, but I will be much happier.
Update: I forgot to mention that I cannot Quit Mail.app. It must be Forced to Quit. When I invoke the Quit keyboard shortcut, the application menu (titled "Mail") becomes highlighted, as expected, but then the application is frozen, forever, until I Force it to Quit.

  • Setting Importance Level for a email message using javax.mail.* API

    Setting Importance Level for a email message using javax.mail.* API
    From what I understand we can set Flag on Email Message. How can we set Importance Leve: High/Low for an email message?
    Thanks
    Purvi

    Most of the message Flags work only for IMAP mailboxes. POP3 supports only the DELETED flag. It must be understood that Javamail is a framework which provides all the features available in a standard mailing system. But whether or not a particular feature works is a functionality of the particular implementation being used.
    Thus for example POP3 cannot differentiate read from unread messages in a mailbox though Javamail provides that feature.

  • Can't import Inbox.dbx file

    I am using Outlook Express 6 and would like to import my Inbox.dbx file.
    Through Outlook Express, File/Import/Messages/Microsoft Outlook Express 6/Import Mail from an OE6 store directory/Brouse & select the "Mail" file with all the dbx. files, I am able to import all the files except the Inbox.dbx file.
    The "source" Inbox.dbx shows it as having 10,737 KB.
    When I move the "source" Inbox.dbx into it's own folder, and try to just import it, I get a:
    "No messages can be found in this folder or another application is running that has the required files open. Please select another folder or try closing applications that may have files open." message.
    Even doing a restart (soft boot) doesn't make any difference.

    Hi,
    Based on my research, this behavior can occur if the files that you try to import have the read-only attribute set.  The read-only attribute can be set if you copy the .dbx files to a CD-ROM by using a CD-R or CD-RW device.
    To resolve this issue, copy the files to a writable disk (for example, a floppy disk or hard disk), and remove the read-only attribute from the file's properties. You should then be able to import the files by using the Outlook Express import feature. You
    can refer to this KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/252603

  • FMIS vs LCDS for Real Time Messaging In Flex

    A team that I am working with is launching development for a new Flex app. The app will have multiple text chat rooms and video chat too.
    Since for video the architecture must include Flash Media Interactive Server (FMIS), the client assumes we will use FMIS for the text messaging.
    My question is, for text chat what advantages does LiveCycle Data Services (LCDS) have over FMIS?
    Does anyone here have experience with both that they can comment on? Can anyone provide links that might compare the pros and cons of LCDS vs FMIS? Or, dream come true, links providing comparisons of LCDS vs FMIS vs BlazeDS?
    Any thoughts or assistance will be appreciated.

    It sounds like you are changing the multiplier sometimes called the dX
    on the graph scale. This changes how the graph is labeled, which is
    sort of a unit or timescale change, but it doesn't affect the numeric
    formatting of the scale. On the same dialog, as well as on the popup
    are items for choosing scientific display or choosing digits after the
    decimal to display, if that is what you are interested in seeing.
    When you say you want to expand the waveform,
    you might also want to
    type into the min and max of the scale to view less data in the graph,
    thus leaving more detail on what is viewed. This is effectively
    zooming. If I still haven't guessed what it is you are trying to
    change, please explain your problem again in more detail or post a VI.
    As for choosing between a chart and a graph. The major difference is
    that a chart shows the new data attached to older historical data. If
    you are looking at individually sampled blocks of data, the graph is
    what you want. If you want to look at a window on all of the data you
    have gathered, a chart may work better. Also keep in mind that graphs
    have cursors, charts do not. If your chart's data isn't a waveform,
    then the X axis is simply samples and it tells the chart nothing about
    phase.

    Lightroom trial doesn't show complete menu selections or import button.  Also get error message on launch:  An error occurred when attempting to change modules.  I am unable to find/see the following file to try renaming the SLCache and SLStore files:  System Library/Application Support/Adobe.  Any ideas?  I only have 16 days left on the trial and have been unable to get it to work on my Macbook Pro.  This is all I am seeing after Lightroom opens.  Thanks!

    Thanks to both of you for attempting to help.  I finally figured out what was wrong . . . it was a Permissions problem.  Very frustrating, but after scouring the troubleshooting tips I finally found the one that solved my problem.  I had to add a User and give it Read/Write privileges to Lightroom.  The file I had to add the User to was Hidden on my Mac, so that added an even bigger challenge to the mystery.  Only a few days left on my trial version!  I hope I have time to try it out!

  • Explicity mapping between ActionScript and Java objects for the BlazeDS Messaging Service

    The BlazeDS documentation shows how to explicitly map between ActionScript and Java objects. For example, this works fine for RPC services, e.g.
    import flash.utils.IExternalizable;
    import flash.utils.IDataInput;
    import flash.utils.IDataOutput;
    [Bindable]
    [RemoteClass(alias="javaclass.User")]
    public class User implements IExternalizable {
            public var id : String;
            public var secret : String;
            public function User() {
            public function readExternal(input : IDataInput) : void {
                    id = input.readObject() as String;
            public function writeExternal(output : IDataOutput) : void {
                    output.writeObject(id);
    and
    import java.io.Externalizable;
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.io.ObjectInput;
    import java.io.ObjectOutput;
    import java.util.HashSet;
    import java.util.Iterator;
    import java.util.Set;
    public class User implements Externalizable {
        protected String id;
        protected String secret;
        public String getId() {
            return id;
        public void setId(String id) {
            this.id = id;
        public String getSecret() {
            return secret;
        public void setSecret(String secret) {
            this.secret = secret;
        public void readExternal(ObjectInput in) throws IOException,
                    ClassNotFoundException {
            id = (String) in.readObject();
        public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput out) throws IOException {
            out.writeObject(id);
    If I called an RPC service that returns a User, the secret is not sent over the wire.  Is it also possible to do this for the messaging service? That is, if I create a custom messaging adapter and use the function below, can I also prevent secret from being sent?
    MessageBroker messageBroker = MessageBroker.getMessageBroker(null);
    AsyncMessage message = new AsyncMessage();
    message.setDestination("MyMessagingService");
    message.setClientId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
    message.setMessageId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
    User user = new User();
    user.setId("id");
    user.setSecret("secret");
    message.setBody(user);
    messageBroker.routeMessageToService(message, null);

    Hi Martin. The way that AMF serialization/deserialization works for BlazeDS is the same regardless of which service is being used, so yes that code will work for messaging as well. On the server, the serialization/deserialization of messages happens at the endpoint. For an incoming message for example, the endpoint deserializes the message and then hands it off to the MessageBroker which decides which service/destination to deliver the message to.
    That was a good question. Thanks for asking it. Lots of people are used to doing custom serialization/deserialization with the RPC services (RemoteObject/RemotingService) but I'm not sure everyone realizes they can do this for messaging as well.

    indicates that a component with the same name already exists in the target. However, this component does not come from the same source as the one in the transport set (hence the difference in the id). This could also happen if the same component name was used to create objects in the target environment.
    In order for pre-check to succeed, you will either have to rename the components in source (and re-export them i.e., create new dumps) or rename them in target so they don't clash.
