Intermittent missing emails from others

I have never had any trouble sending and receiving emails from within mail program itself and don't now, but lately I do from other email programs to myself (using firefox to log in to my verizon.net accounts). Messages show up in my verizon.net sent folders but I don't receive them in my mail program or if I do it's hours later (this NEVER happened before).
ALSO WORSE, only recently I learned that I have not always been getting emails from others as well.
I know this because they were eventually forwared to me by the people who sent them and it shows my correct email address and that they were sent but I did not get them.
Just today I got an email sent from someone to my verizon.net account with a copy to my mail account (correctly addressed) but have not yet received it in my mail program.
SO this morning I sent myself a test email from this verizon.net account to my mail account and still have not received it either. It always has sent such emails very quickly with almost no delaly.
Verizon tech assures me it is not their server since I can send and receive to myself within verizon.net and they show up in my sent folder.
It is an intermittent problem and leaves me with no way of knowing what emails I am NOT getting.
After reading some discussions about mail problems with iphones, I have a sneaky suspicion that it has something to do with iphone and perhaps with recent updates with Quicktime, etc. I have never had problems like this.
I am fearful of updating to leopard because there seems to be problems with mail there. So I still have Tiger and have ever since it came out.
This problem is on my macbookpro laptop and G5 and I have repaired permissions and updated all software.
any ideas? anyone else?
thanks!

+I see the emails in gmail account - never get them in entourage - intermittent - and (yes I have checked the spam filters).+
Which spam filters did you check? Some ISPs reject spam (long) before it gets to your mail client and thus to your spam filters. Verizon is one such ISP, based on published reports and based on their own web site.
At least one major ISP was recently reportedly as rejecting mail, allegedly based on the politics of the various folks involved.
And as for Verizon, there are and have been filtering-related discussions that can be easily located using your preferred web search engine.
Have you tried the configuration with something other than Entourage? This to determine if it is the client or the server.
Have you tried another ISP, or loading up Mac OS X Server and running your own mail server and (if permissible) bypassing Verizon's filters?
And FWIW (and no offense intended), the Mac OS X Server platform's Mail Services forum probably isn't the best spot for what appear to be ISP mail issues and Microsoft Entourage mail client discussions. (Unless the mail server involved running Mac OS X Server, that is.) Various ISPs can and do filter mail. Some (like one of my ISPs) provide you with some degree of control over the filtering. Some don't. Check directly with the ISP for details and settings.

Missing email from my iCloud inbox.

When I download eMail messages they downloadI And I can see that happen. However, the eMail messages do not go to my iCloud Inbox. Nor do the eMail messages go to my gmail Inbox.
Strangely most, but not all eMails, can be found in gmail folder "Important".
I also had the same problem with Mobile Me, unfortunely at that time I did not have a gmail account. Those missing eMails from the Mobile Me Inbox were never recovered. So I gaps in my email, weeks, or months.

To change the From name on and iOS device, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap iCloud under Accounts, tap your iCloud account at the top of the next screen, tap Mail at the bottom of the next screen, then enter the name you want to use in the Name field at the top.
To change the From name on a Mac (if you have one), go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done. Then quit Mail on your Mac and re-open it. Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.

I cannot send email - error message as follows : 'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk.' I can send email from other apple devices, and the email settings are identical. Any ideas?

For some reason I cannot send email - all was working fine, but now I get the following error message when I try to send email:
'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk'
I can receive incoming mail ok and I can send email from other Apple devices. The problem seems confined to my Mac Book Pro.
Ant ideas?

Not receiving emails from other I pads

Not receiving emails from other iPads

Just other iPads or in general?
Have those other iPads send mail that you can access on a PC and see if their mail is going through.
Can you access other mail or just mail from those iPads?
What is the mail provider involved?
More details can help in finding an answer

Cannot Receive Cox Email from Other Cox Addresses

I just changed the COX Account in Mail and all of my IOS devices to IMAP from POP.
I do not receive email from other Cox senders in Mac Mail. The emails will show up on the IOS devices but not on either of my Macs. All other emails are recieved with no problems.
Clearly a Mail problem as all emails show up in Cox Webmail and in Thunderbird for Mac. Both Mail and Thunderbird are set up to use Port 993.
It seems to me I remember a similar problem with Cox years back.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

The computer at my vacation home is missing emails from may to late august

email from early May 2014 to late August 2014 did not download when I tried to download my email at my second home. I had not logged on the 2nd computer after early may until yesterday. How can I get the missing email to download?
Thanks,
Rob

''re:Pop account is what I use on both computers.''
Pop mail accounts access the server Inbox and if it locates new mail not previously downloaded, it will download those emails to the Thunderbird mail account Inbox and by default it will delete the copy off the server.
You can set the Pop mail account to 'leave messages on the server'.
It sounds like your other computer used pop, but it was not configured to leave a copy on the server. This would mean tht as that computer downloaded emails, it was also deleteing the copy off the server. So when you used the second home computer, it cannot download something that does not exist.
There are two ways off checking this.
Firstly, if you logon to your webmail account via a browser you will see if the emails are actually on the server.
Secondly, check both computers to see if the option to leave messages on the server is selected. I would suggest that you select this option so that you can download to both computers when using either.
This is where you make the 'leave messages on the server' setting.
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
select 'leave messages on server'
if desired you can also select:
'for at most xx days' to remove older mail
and / or 'Until I delete them' to remove deleted emails.
click on OK to save changes.

Problem sending emails from other wifi points

Been away for christmas for few days.
Tried sending emails from various other wifi locations but they wouldn't send. However on coming home it went straight away, any ideas?
When using these other wifi points I could download emails andaccess the internet.
Cheers

After much research and help (on another site forum!) it turns out this is a BTYahoo! mail fault affecting many BT accounts (in the UK at least). Why they are messing accounts around I don't know.
If anyone finds they can't send via a BT account just find another server and enter their details and all will work again - as I've discovered after a day trawling the ether!

Hi, Can you export emails from other email client to Thunderbird?

Hello,

I clicked something and it started importing all my emails from other account. How do I make it stop. I Don't want them all

Can I do this?
It started importing and I can't get it to stop. How can I stop it

it is useful to offer some info on what type of account you're talking about.
'''POP'''
Pop mail accounts only look at Inbox and download whatever has not been previously downloaded. They cannot access nor download from any other folder on the server.
So if you do not want older emails downloading, then you need to access your webmail account using a browser and move all older emails into a suitable folder, but not the Inbox, then Thunderbird cannot see them.
By default, it usually downloads and deletes the copy on the server, but you can change this preference.
* Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
or
* menu icon > Options > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
select: 'leave messages on the server'
optional:
select: 'for at most xx days'
this will delete anything older than specified number of days
select 'Until I delete them'
when you delete an email it will be deleted off the server.
click on Ok to save settings.
'''Stopping a download:'''
There is a button you can add to the Mail toolbar.
* View > Toolbars > customise
or
* Menu Icon > Options > Toolbar Layout
Drag the 'Stop' icon onto toolbar.
close Customise window - top right X.
click on 'Stop' icon to stop current action of download.
'''IMAP:'''
IMAP mail accounts see a remote view of the subscribed folders on the server, so you would see whatever is in any subscribed folder.
You can choose to synchronize subscribed folders and select settings to limit what is downloaded.
Tools > Account Settings > synchronization & storage.

Replies to my emails from others- being sent to incorrect email account

I am having issues receiving reply emails from friends to my yahoo email account- don't know where to start.
Palm Treo 800.
Set up Yahoo as email account on my device.
used to use a hotmail address, and when I send out emails from both home and my device, when I receive replies from friends/colleagues somehow the replies are going to my hotmail email.
They tell me they have deleted me as a hotmail contact but still replies are going automatically to hotmail.
I use microsoft outlook express and think it has something to do with when I set up that as an account. I don't know how/where to troubleshoot but I know when I set up Outlook Express I tried to sign up using my hotmail account but it is not supported?
Thanks.
Keith
Post relates to: Palm TX

Check the outgoing mail server settings in your account on the Treo and see if it is set for your yahoo account.
Make sure it is not set for the Hotmail account.

If you still have problems, create a new account on the Treo for your yahoo account and delete the current account.

Missing emails from Inbox

My Mail application has been running without incident for several months until Tuesday when the contents of the inbox where not in the view pane window. I had this problem before and followed the instructions once again. Namely; going to Library/Mail/Inbox.imapmbox, copying this file and then moving this copy to the desktop and then deleting the original inbox.imapmbox and then relaunching the Mail application. Unfortunately this time I have had little success and would welcome any suggestions that people may have on this.
When new mail arrives the Inbox displays notification of the number of emails but once read these disappear (I can still however read them through the Finder/~/Library/Mail/inbox. But it is far from satisfactory.
I only have a .mac account and am running OS X 10.4.9

When I log into my .Mac account via a browser, I can view all of the emails that are in the Inbox so I know that they are there.
The inbox in the Mail application dispays the number of new emails and on occassions will display only the new emails. None of the other 340 previously read ones. I have rebuilt the inbox twice and yes the emails do appear; however when you select a subfolder to view mail that has gone into these mail folders through Rules and then return to the main Inbox none of the emails that you have just rebuilt appear.
