Inbox not receiving email on mac mail

Hello,
I have a problem with my Mail app on my mac (MBA 2013 running 10.9.1) with one of my two iCloud account, where by one of them  inbox is no longer receving any messages and only old messages were showing in the inbox. Account 'A' for is fine syncing mail correctly inbox/sent/junk and all but account 'B' for some reason was not syncing inbox or anyother folder. What I have done is remove the mail account 'B' only through System Preference>iCloud restarted my computer then restarted the computer and checked the mail.
Now all old messages are no longer showing in account 'B' but 'A' is working perfectly fine. On the troubled account junk and send mail are syncing but inbox is not. I have done a repair permission and recevied the following message: "Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired." Although when searching it seems that I can safely ignor this message according to apple but I only bring it up in case there is a connection.
One thing to note I am receiving email on my iPhone with the troubled account it's just that I am not receving any emails on my mac mail.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Well after a few hours it started working again ... I have no explanation for this I just kept my inbox highligted.
At least this maybe a reference or people that go through the same problem to just give it time

  • HT3376 I am not receiving emails in my Mail account.  However, I am receiving them on my web based yahoo account and on my ipad.  The other strange thing is that on my Mac, I have been receiving emails from Apple.  How can i fix this problem?

    I am not receiving email messages in my Mail account on my Mac OSX.  However, emails are being received on my ipad and my yahoo web site.  Also, all emails from Apple are going through in my Mail account.  How do I fix this problem?

    Well, the other person said theirs was working now. On yours let's try this...
    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
    If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
    Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

  • I can't receive email in Mac Mail but I can send them

    I use two email programmes on my Mac Mini - Thunderbird and Mac Mail. I can receive and send emails on Thudnerbird and I can send emails on Mac Mail but I can't receive the. Next to the mailbox is a squiggly line like a wave which I presume is the promblem but I don't know what that problem is.
    I don't have this problem on my MacBook Air.
    The Mac Mini is using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    Thanks

    If an option exists on networksolutions to allow you to log in to your email via your web browser then access your mail via webmail then try deleting the offending message that way.

  • Archiving/ Saving sent and received Emails in Mac Mail???

    Hello.
    I want to switch web hosts, and before doing so I want to save/ archive all of my past sent and received emails.
    Is there a way to do so?
    I know I can use gmail, not exactly sure how to do so but I bet it's not real hard, but I am wondering if there is a way to actually take all of the emails from my webmail and save them offline? Does Mac Mail do this? Can I save them as files? There are literally thousands of emails, so a way to save them to my local drive would be ideal....
    any ideas?

    You can create a New Mailbox to correspond with each Inbox and Sent mailbox, and then Copy the messages into those. At that point you can have a copy of each message in both the Inbox/Sent and the On My Mac mailboxes.
    However, if your email address will stay exactly the same (is associated with a hosted Domain) then you may be able to merely change the name of the Incoming server in the Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information and continue with the same accounts. This might not be workable because of the inexactness of when you old/new Host swap responsibility. If not, then remove each original account, set each one up again in conformity with info from your new Host, and then move the messages from the the On My Mailboxes you created above, into the corresponding Inbox and Sent of the new accounts.

  • GoDaddy Mac Mail IMAP...HUGE delay receiving email in mac mail

    issue: (only with godaddy IMAP email accts in Mac Mail)
    i can send emails no proplem
    the problems is receiving them...there is an enourmous delay-up to 8 hours!
    things i have done/figured out:
    on the godaddy email client all is good
    on my iphone the account works
    i set up an account in entourage and the account works
    i upgraded to snow leopard
    i deleted the accounts and recreated them
    here is the rub...i figured out a "work around". if i manually "sync all accounts" in mail and then click on get mail the mail comes in immediatetly or if i delete an email in one of the accounts and then click get mail the mail comes in immediately. but Mac Mail won't retrieve email other wise.
    I know that this is a problem others have expereineced but i have not been able to find the solution
    i believe that it is an issue with Mac Mail and perhaps the IDLE feature (disabling IDLE does not help that much)
    i have spent countless hours on the phone with godaddy and today they told me that the problem is a mac issue and therefore i am on my own.
    any ideas???

    Okay - I fixed it.  Here's what I did.
    - Deleted the entire mail folder inside my Preferences folder.  ~/Library/<userfolder>
    - Kept the files in the trash just in case, but didn't need them
    - Rebooted
    - Opened the System Preferences
    - Selected "Mail, Contacts & Calendars"
    - Verified the previous account was gone
    - Clicked Create
    - Created a new account and then opened Mail
    - Voila! Email
    Note - if you trash the mail folder inside Preferences, it will delete any local emails.  All my email is IMAP and I never store anything locally, so everything syched right back when the account was recreated.
    Good luck.  Hope this helps.

  • Trouble Reveiving (but not sending) email with Mac Mail

    I only intermittently can recieve yahoo emails on my new Air. Sending is no problem. Also recieve most, but not all, messages on my iPad. Sending also ok. But my iPhone sends and receives perfectly. Cants get help from apple, yahoo or time-Werner cable. ALL suggestions greatly appreciated. Very frustrated with my new Apple gear.

    Well, since your iPhone receives perfectly, use it as the model to set up your iPad and MacBook Air.
    On your iPhone, check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > (your Yahoo account).  Check the Incoming Mail Server settings, particularly the host name and server port (if you have that, it may be under "Advanced").
    Make sure they're set the same on your iPad.  On your Mac, in Mail, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and look under your Yahoo account.

  • Not receiving email in Apple Mail, only on iPhone

    OK, I've been searching forever trying to find this answer, but I can't...
    I have two accounts setup in Apple Mail through Comcast... These two accounts are synced with my iPhone using POP... Now, I have never experienced this problem with my first account, but with my second account a few times a day... They are both setup exactly the same, just different names of course... OK, here is what is happening...
    I am receiving all my email on my iPhone properly all the time, however, that same message is not being received in Apple Mail through Comcast for some reason... In the first account, never a problem, in the second account, quite a bit... I have the advanced settings set to "never" delete from the server, so not sure why they show up on my iPhone and not in Apple Mail once in awhile... So I end up forwarding that message to my first account so I can reply to it within Apple Mail...
    Any ideas?

    NEVER MIND, THEY WERE ALL IN MY JUNK MAILBOX... Man!

  • Mail not receiving email

    I recently purchased an iPhone so I wanted to change my Mac Mail from a POP account to IMAP since I will be checking on both devices. The issues is after I have done this I no longer receive emails to Mac Mail. I am able to send, but not receive. I receive new emails to my iPhone no problem and it has the exact same settings as the IMAP account for Mac Mail. The steps I have taken to try and correct:
    Deleted the POP account
    Deleted and re-added the IMAP account
    Connection Doctor shows green on both incoming and outgoing e-mail
    Created a new user account with the IMAP account
    Repaired Disk permissions
    Deleted the Keychain password for the IMAP account
    Reset the password for the e-mail account
    I did find I am able to receive emails when I perform "Get Account Info" specifically the Quota Limits tab. I have to manually do this each time I want to check and receive new e-mail. Also selecting the Rebuild option does the same. Each time I want to get my e-mail I have to perform one of these two options. New emails are not automatically received, or selecting the Get Mail does not retrieve new messages.
    Any other ideas, I am completely out of things to try. Thanks in advance.

    I have the same problem. I receive mail just fine on my iPhone and on the other Macs in my home. I only have a problem with my MacBook Pro. It is also sporatic. Some e-mails come thru. Some do not unless I restart Mail or take all accounts offline then back online. The same things happens on other networks when I am away from home. Frustrating.
    Any help out there????

  • Problem sending emails with Mac Mail 1.3.11

    Desperately in need of help. I'm able to receive but not send email using Mac Mail. I keep getting an error message:
    "This message could not be delivered and will remain in your Outbox until it can be delivered.
    The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server"
    I have already tried the following at the advice of AppleCare reps:-
    Have verified & repaired disk utilities & keychains
    Have reinstalled the operating system
    Have trashed the mail.plist file
    Have trashed the outbox.mbox file
    Getting quite frustrated now because we have a mac bookpro with identical mail settings and it is able to send and receive mail without any problems.Could it be the version of Mail I'm running ?
    I initially thought that the problem related to having switched to a new ISP but the fact that one of the mac's has no problem has led me to be less convinced of that idea.
    Any suggestions gratefully accepted.
    Many thanks

    I am having the same problem exactly. I can read e-mail, but get the same error message trying to send it. I can't use .Mac anymore--have to use alternate e-mail for the last month--since some time in October 2006.
    I haven't changed anything on my G4, haven't upgraded anything, and the problem started about the time .Mac reported some customers were unable to use Mail for a couple of days in October.
    I see nobody answered your post. Did you ever get your mail to work? I have repaired permissions, but I don't think it has anything to do with that.
    Thanks,

  • Why am I not receiving emails that I know have been sent to me??

    I am not receiving emails into my Mail program. I know that I have been sent emails, in fact I have sent myself tests from both the email as well as my Yahoo account. Neither have come through. I have tried the "send/receive" button and it does not register that there are any emails. This is an ongoing problem and the emails will sometimes come through hours later (if not the next day). My coworkers are not experiencing this problem at all. This is seriously effecting my ability to respond to my clients - since I'm not getting their emails.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Thank you!
    I actually saw your post below on another listing and have just finished trying it...unfortunately it did not work. I have also checked my Quota Limits and we have 858GB and my account states it is using only 2.9GB. So VERY odd and frustrating...Any other ideas are greatly appreciated!
    Also, I am trying to go through and remove attachments without deleting the entire email. I found online how to do this, however, it does not seem to be working...any ideas?
    Thirdly, do you know if having your Inbox organized into numerous folders/subfolders would increase the amount of space used and could be causing these issues?
    Sorry to ask so many questions...I'm at a loss for what to do.
    Thank you!

  • One Yahoo! mail account does not receive email sent from .mac

    OK, this is an odd problem, and any help would be appreciated.
    My girlfriend's Yahoo! mail account does not receive email sent from my .mac address. If I send email from my Gmail or Yahoo! accounts she receives the message. No one else has informed me that they haven't received email from the .mac address. Additionally, the .mac account is in her address book.
    Anyway, has anyone seen a similar pattern with Yahoo! or any other email provider?
    Thanks.
    - Jennings

    Thanks for the reply . . . and yes, the recipient's email provider likely holds the answer.
    However, I was hoping someone here might have had a similar experience and could answer as the email provider is Yahoo, and they are slow in responding to help requests . . . for a period I hosted a personal, paid website through Yahoo Domains and help tickets lingered for several days on multiple occasions (this being the reason the site is no longer hosted by Yahoo). I also doubt Yahoo will expend too much energy resolving a problem for a free email account.
    Anyway, I posted in the Yahoo mail forums, and hopefully something will come-up . . . .
