Inconsistent results moving mail to iCloud folders

Sometimes the mail will move and other times it will end up back in the Inbox. Having to close Mail and restart. One thing to note is that most of the mail is originating from a Gmail mailbox. This MB Pro was purchased with the Mountain Lion OS and upgraded to Mavericks.
Thanks.

I believe that I have found a correlation between mail moves to iCloud and Dropbox synchronization. Dropbox was set to use all available bandwidth for uploads. I have reduced the Dropbox bandwidth and the mail moves are functioning correctly without any "kickbacks" to the Inbox. Consider this issue resolved...thx!

Can I get Thunderbird to delete from an LDAP inbox when moving mail to local folders?

I have 3 mail accounts that I previously accessed with POP3 on Outlook. Thunderbird set these up with LDAP (which, in many ways, is more convinient). I like to keep the inbox on the mail server fairly clean so I move anything I want to keep to my local folders. If I do this then Thunderbird no longer sees it in the LDAP inbox but it is still there and visible to other readers (i.e. my phone). The only way I have found is to copy to my local folders and then delete from LDAP server as two separate operations. Is there a simpler way that I can configure Thunderbird to do this in one operation?

When you say LDAP, you actually mean IMAP.
After moving the email into Local Folders, has the Thunderbird Inbox resynchronised with the server to update the server?
Did you try this.
Synchronise Inbox folder for offline use.
Then in offline mode, move email into Local folders so it is no longer in the Inbox, then go back into online mode and the Thunderbird Inbox should resynch with the server to update it.

How can I solve issues with moving mail to different folders?

I am not able to move certain files from one folder to another? I get a pop up that says, "unable to move message" and right underneath that it says, "the message could not be moved to the mailbox inbox". It will not allow me to move anything in that one folder to any other location, but when I tried moving things in another folder to a different one I had no problem. Does this make sense? Please help.

HT6030 Having major Mail problems since I updated Maverick on my 27" iMac. Delays deleting emails and moving emails to other folders. Anyone else having this issue? If so, any known fixes?

I have an iMac that around 3 years old. Just installed Mavericks when it first was released. I also have a Time Capsule (2TB) that runs my network to my other three Apple devices: iPad2, iPhone 5s and a new Apple TV. Having major Mail issues here. Everything is very delayed and extremely slow. Moving emails to other folders sometimes takes a few minutes and the same goes for deleting emails. Delete them and they don't go into the trash for several minutes. It's getting very frustrating to say the least. Mail also quits very often. Mail also will freeze with the little color ball spinning, therefore I would have to force quit Mail. When the errors occur, it's automatically sent to Apple but there hasn't been an update since 10.9.1 that has fixed it. Apparently, that update was only for gmail issues. Anyone having the same problem? Fixes please?

I have my entire network and all Apple devices setup as IMAP, not POP. If your settings are setup as a POP account on all devices, emails will not erase when deleted on your other devices. Just something to keep in mind. I'm sure you're aware of this but just wanted to throw it out there. Google IMAP vs POP. However, it seems like your having the same issues as I am. I'm going to swing by an Apple store by me and speak to the genius bar and see if they can come up with something or are aware of this issue. Keep you posted.

How do I duplicate the folders in Mail on my Mac to Mail in iCloud?

I have set up a series of folders in Mail on my Mac where I file all of my emails.
During the day I often access Mail on a PC via iCloud and there are no folders set up on my iCloud version.
Is it possible to duplicate my folder set up from Mail on my Mac to Mail on iCloud and to have changes made on one (e.g. messages deleted, new folders raised etc.) reflected on the other?

You should create your mail folders on the iCloud server (under ICLOUD in Mail), not locally on your Mac (under ON MY MAC) for them to show up on other devices and at iCloud.com.
Anything stored locally on your Mac only exists on that specific Mac so leave all your mail on the server and organise it there.

Duplicated folders in Mail from iCloud account

Hi, I have a little problem with Mail in Mac OS X Mountain Lion and iCloud. I use the last release, with all upgrades done.
When I use Mail, sometimes (and always when I use the Sync function in Mail) I get duplicated folders from iCloud.
A little pic to show what I mean:
The "other" folders in iCloud are active: I find often some messages in the Junk folder, but I can't turn off this function in iCloud...
What can I do not to have these iCloud folders in Mail? And how can I turn off the junk function in iCloud (not in Mail)?
Thank you,
Andrea

And when a message goes into the "Junk" folder in iCloud, not in "Indesiderata" (Junk) in Mail?
I wouldn't see it...
What can I do to disable the Junk function in iCloud, and use only the same function in Mail?

Mail.app is COPYING instead of MOVING mail to folders (using IMAP)

Hi there,
I hope I can keep this simple, I'll go by the steps leading to my propblem:
1.
I've been using POP3 mail for a long time, mainly with Outlook on PC's and now that I have made the godly switch to Apple I've been using Mail.app for a couple months. I host my domains at GoDaddy.com and they offer decent mail servers including webmail, etc. Since I'm checking mail on multiple platforms (iPhone, iPad, MacBook and webmail) I decided to start using IMAP instead of POP3. GoDaddy set that up form me in seconds and I got IMAP working on Mail.app in no time (yes, I deleted the old POP accounts and started from zero creating new IMAP accounts).
2.
I've learned to keep mail filing easy so I have just two folders: "Inbox" and "archive". My inbox is... well... my inbox. If a mail is in my inbox it's because it's either a brand new unread mail or it is read and I'm keeping it there because action needs to be take upon it. Once action has been taken and I want to save the mail for future reference I just archive it. If I want to retreive mail I just make a search across all folders. Of course I also have the trash folder, sent items, junk, etc.
3. THE PROBLEM
As seen on the subject line, Mail.app is COPYING instead of MOVING mail to the IMAP server based folders. So when I click on archive, or manualy drag a mail to the "archive" folder it places a copy there but the email is still visible in the inbox on all my devices. I have tried creating other IMAP folders and giving them different names such as "saved mail" or "old mail" and still I get the same problem. To prove the problem is on the Mail.app side I loged into my webmail and moved messages to the "archive" folder from there, and guess what... it worked. The messages did not show up in the inbox of any of my devices any more.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP.... I'm talking about three email addresses which receive tons of business related mail every day... I'm flooded in mail.
THANKS in advance for your help!
Kinds regards,
Willem

Thanks wjosten,
I had already tried that. I even created a keyboard shortcut to do so. It doesn't work! As soon as I close down Mail.app and start it up again, the messages are back in the inbox.

I am changing to iCloud on my iMac, MacBook Air and my iPhone. My iMac and MacBook both moved over to iCloud but my iPhone when I go to Settings and click on iCloud it shows my Mail setting turned Off. When I turn it on it wants me to create a new email address to turn on iCloud Mail. I already have to "me" accounts plus another email address and don't want to create another one. I don't understand why it's asking me to do this on my iPhone but didn't ask on my iMac or MacBook and is there a way around creating another @me.com email address?

I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
Disk Utility can verify my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
Good luck!

Should cancelled mailbox moves result in any moved mail data removed from target server?

I was moving mailboxes from 1 DB to another. 3 out of 120 were left running for 12 hours; they were the biggest ones and it was very slow to process the items. There were also reports of slowness on the server so I had no choice but to cancel the moves.
My question is should cancelled mailbox moves result in any moved mail data being removed from the target database? It doesn't appear that my disk as increased in space again so I'm wondering if it's there as whitespace maybe? There is an event logged to say
the mailbox has been deleted from the target.
Would appreciate if someone can clear this up and possibly explain exactly what occurs during this type of scenario.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thank you for your kindly remind.
In Exchange 2000, 2003 and 2007 mailboxes become unavailable during movement, when a mailbox move takes place, the mailbox isn't actually moved, it's just copied to the destination location. Once that copy has finished, AD is updated to point to the new location
and the old mailbox is deleted from the source EDB file.
The most different between Exchange 2010 and legacy version in move mailbox is that allows end-users to be online in their email accounts. On completing the move users just needs to reopen their Outlook clients.
Mailbox Move Requests are a new feature set of Exchange 2010 and requires running a series of Cmdlets to perform asynchronous online mailbox moves with the help of a service agent called Mailbox Replication Service (MRS). MRS is available on all Exchange 2010
Client Access Servers.

I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues. They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

Lost mails while moving mail folders

I was reorganising my mails into mail folders and suddenly I lost all mails (many folders are empty).
In the specific I created a new folder called "projects new" in which I tried to put in all the folders and subfolders contained in an old "projects" folder. Something went worng as the programme was not able to copy the mails and their folders and subfolders. The result is that all folders I tried to move into the new folders are still there but empty.
Any advice?
Thansk luciano

First duplicate the entire Mail folder for backup purposes (~/Library/Mail)
Now choose each mailbox one by one and do a Rebuild from the Mailbox menu

Icloud folders gone from mail after upgrade to Mavericks

Before upgrading to Mavericks, I had an Icloud folders displayes in the mailboxes setion of mail. After upgrading, they are no longer there.
Any ideas?

Same thing for me too. Late 2012 13" MBP Retina. I have to unplug the Thunderbolt cable and plug it back in.
This has only started for me in the last two days. The first two weeks of Mavericks was ok.
Update: I just got back from a trip. I was using the laptop separate from the Thunderbolt display. I hadn't restarted since I returned and connected the monitor. I've just rebooted, and put the computer to sleep. After resuming from sleep, the display is ok. Maybe try rebooting? I'll update if it continues.
