Mail 3.6 delivering blank messages

Mail has suddenly started delivering some emails with blank messages. The messages seem to be from businesses (bank, Netflix, library, etc). When clicking on message to open, multi-colored ball rotates for sometime, then black & white circle whirls with 'loading' displayed. The email finally opens with only the heading showing. Message is completely blank. Can receive emails from individuals with attachments without a problem.
Any suggestions?

  • If I click on an e-mail address link in a web page instead of a blank message opening I always get a pop up screen with a log-in for googlemail. I do not have and do not want a googlemail account. I just want to be able to send e-mails using Outlook.

    OUtlook was already set as the mail client for FF, and is my operating system (XP)'s default mail programme. therefore problem not solved at all. what I get whenever I follow a link in a webpage to send an e-mail is a little pop up window asking me to sign in to gmail or open an account. any other suggestions?

  • Mail regularly open the new blank message window

    After Mail initial start the programm opens a new blank message window. When I try to close it I receive the message "Do you want to save it as a draft and work on it later?"
    The new blank message window appears regularly every 4-5 minutes. How can I fix it? And thanks in advance for response and help.

    Do you see the Outbox in Mail? Does it contain any messages?

  • My email messages won't display. The preview shows but when I enter the mail it is completly blank

    My email messages have stopped displaying in both my mail accounts. I can see a preview but when I enter the individual mail the screen is blank. Not even the preview text is displayed. I have not changed any settings. Does anyone know how to resolve this.

    Reset your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.

  • Blank messages in Apple Mail, only message header seen

  • High processor use and blank messages in Yosemite mail

    Hello
    I am noticing very high processor use from Yosemite Mail, and I am also having problems with blank messages.
    Under Mavericks, I had a problem where I double click on a mail message to open it.  The message would flash on the screen for a moment and then disappear.  The message in my inbox would be marked as read.  I could then open it again and read it normally.  Over time, I tracked this down as having to do with Mail doing anything else when I requested to open the email.  For instance, if I delete a message and then immediately try to open the next message, the problem would occur.  If I waited 5 seconds or so, then opened the next message, the problem would not occur.
    Now, under Yosemite, I find that if I open a message quickly after performing another task, the message window is blank and never fills in.  I can close that message window and open it again, it may work, or it may still be blank.  I have found where certain messages appear to be stuck and will open blank until I open a different message and then come back to the problem message.
    I have also noticed that Mail under Yosemite appears to use very high percentages of processor time.   Checking the activity monitor, Mail is third behind WindowServer and kernel_task for processor usage.  And I have another question on the community about my system running hot with the fan spooling up and down constantly under Yosemite, something that almost never happened under any of the previous OS's going back to Snow Leopard.
    Any idea what is going on with the Mail app in Yosemite?  I was excited about Mail finally advancing in capability, but it seems to have come at a cost.....  Come on Apple - Mail needs to catch up with Outlook!

    I also have this problem since Yosemite upgrade. Infuriating because I can't just read incoming emails anymore. It seems to be specific to one email account and doesn't necessarily cause a problem with others. When this happens, (showing the content for a second then disappearing), there is a segmentation fault reported in the error log.
    For me, this is a category one critical business problem. If I can't read and reply to incoming email reliably on my computer, I will need to switch to another system or device that can.

    Good news is that the email app does seem to work a bit quicker than before using Mavericks where it could hang for 10-20 seconds for no particular reason.
    Hope this can be fixed or a workaround posted soon.

  • Mail is creating blank messages in the Notes:On My Mac folder.

    Mail is creating blank messages in my Notes:On My Mac folder
    It is currently doing it every 3 seconds. So after 5 minutes I have 100 new notes.
    Does anyone know how to make this stop?
    Some observations:
    The notes only get created if Mail is open.
    The messages appear blank and are interpreted by mail as messages, not as notes, and have the following headers:
    Message-Id: <[email protected]>
    Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v928.1)
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII
    X-Universally-Unique-Identifier: ac371d40-78ea-44de-b2b4-1cf93a1e5c60
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
    I see correlated CPU usage bursts in Activity Monitor for: distnoted (~0.8%), Mail (~50%), SyncServer (~60%), fseventsd (~0.4%), Finder (~1%).
    The notes get created regardless of the presence or absence of a network connection.
    On my other iMac the same problem exists but the frequency is lower: a pair of notes is created every 15 minutes or so. The problem also exists on my MacBook Pro.
    The frequency on this iMac was lower when I first noticed the problem.
    I am a .Mac/MobileMe user and all three computers are registered for synchronization.
    Has anyone seen this problem?

    Hello David,
    I had a much more acute version of this problem on both my Macs. I first mentioned this problem here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7752479#7752479
    The only thing that worked for me was disabling Notes syncing and deleting all my Notes. This is not an ideal solution but to have a functional computer I had to take that drastic step (after trying many remedies offered on this forum).

  • Outgoing mail server failed to deliver this message

    This message appeared. I have not sent 400 messages. What's the deal??
    ""The outgoing mail server “smto,mac.com:jones” failed to deliver this message. 4.0.0 You have exceeded 400 recipients in the last 24 hours. Try again later.""
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.2.8)  

    You're welcome.
    If you're a .Mac member using Mac OS X version 10.2.1 or later, you can synchronize the contact information between the Address Book application on your computer and your .Mac Address Book on the web. You can also synchronize your contact information between multiple Mac OS computers.
    If you're using a version of Mac OS X earlier than version 10.4, you must have iSync installed on your computer to synchronize the information. To download iSync, go to
    www.apple.com/support/downloads/isync.html
    You can't synchronize the information in your .Mac Address Book if you have an email-only account.
    To sync your .Mac Address Book:
    Do one of the following:
    If you're using a version of Mac OS X earlier than version 10.4, open iSync and click the .Mac button. Register your .Mac account, turn on .Mac synchronization, and then click the Sync Now button.
    (Note: If you are syncing contact information between multiple Mac OS computers, use iSync to register all the computers you want to keep synchronized. For more information, choose Help > iSync Help when iSync is open.)
    After the sync has completed, go to www.mac.com and click Address Book on the .Mac tab.
    Click Preferences, and then select the "Turn on .Mac Address Book
    Synchronization" checkbox.
    Click Save.
    With Address Book synchronization turned on, the contact information in your .Mac Address Book on the web and the Address Book application on your computer will be updated with any changes each time you sync.
    You can turn off synchronization between the Address Book application on your computer and your .Mac Address Book on the web by deselecting the "Turn on .Mac Address Book Synchronization" checkbox. While this checkbox is deselected, changes you make to either address book are saved until the next time you select this checkbox and click the Sync Now button on the .Mac pane or in iSync. (For example, if you delete an address from your .Mac Address Book with this checkbox deselected, this address will be deleted from the Address Book on your computer's hard disk the next time you sync with synchronization turned on.)
    If your kid has his/her own computer login account, one way to transfer selected contacts from your Address Book to your kid's address book is to create a folder on the Desktop named Contacts or whatever you prefer. Launch Address Book and one at a time, select a contact's name to highlight it and then single click and drag the contact to the created Contacts folder on the Desktop. This will create a vCard copy of the contact.
    Using the Finder, go to Home > Shared. Place the Contacts folder on the Desktop in the Shared folder.
    When your kid logs in to his/her account, the Contacts folder will be available in his/her Shared folder at Home > Shared.
    Launch Address Book and at the menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards. Navigate to/within the Contacts folder in the Shared folder and the vCards in the Contacts folder will be imported to your kid's Address Book.

  • E-mail not being delivered - AGAIN!!!

    This *****!!! You guys are really ruining my e-mail ability...since I do pay for this service!!! Stop blocking my e-mail! I'm really ******!!!!
    This is the second week my e-mail has been rejected by the server and I've not been able to finish sending out my mail to people. I organize a class reunion. I e-mail about 200 people once a week. For some reason there was a change to a setting somewhere along the line and 2 weeks ago my mail stopped being delivered. I stated in my last contact that I would switch to a free service that would allow me to send my mail. I don't use all the .Mac services and I can get web space much cheaper.
    Either fix this or consider me (a member for 4+ years) cancelled. I don't have time to write to you guys every week about this. Did I mention I was ******?

    It's not like I am sending out huge files or something like that. See below.
    This is what I am sending.

    Parsing through your rant which isn't directed at Apple, it seems you might be exceeding the sending limits included with a .Mac account which are not extreme by any means so take a deep breath and calm down.
    All internet service providers and email account providers (even free ones) have sending limits or restrictions for non-business/personal email accounts.
    These restrictions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from an ISP's or email account provider's domain. In case you aren't aware, spammers make use of bulk spam mailings and these restrictions make it more difficult for a spammer to do his thing.
    It makes no difference that you aren't a spammer or the content of your message is not spam since there is no way an ISP or email account provider can make this determination when you send a message but they can impose sending limits or restrictions.
    Copied from the following link.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25301
    .Mac has several safeguards in place to ensure that only .Mac members send messages with the Mac.com outgoing mail server. Among them are reasonable limitations on:
    * The number of messages that can be sent each day (200 messages)
    * The number of recipients that can be sent to each day (400 recipients)
    * The number of recipients a message can be addressed to at one time (100 recipients)
    * The size of outgoing messages
    There is also a 10 MB maximum size for messages sent or received using the .Mac mail system.
    .Mac Email has been designed primarily for personal use. Sending unsolicited bulk email messages through the .Mac email server is prohibited.
    If your message is being rejected by a recipient's incoming mail server, what is the return email error message provided which is sent by the recipient's incoming mail server?
    Regardless, this problem is with the recipient's email account provider. If the return email error message from the recipient's incoming mail server indicates the recipient has exceeded their allocated server storage space, this the recipient's problem.
    So instead of ranting, how about providing more detailed information about the error message provided so someone here can help narrow down where the problem lies so you can direct your efforts there.
    IMO - since you use your .Mac account for email only, you should cancel your account but keep in mind that even a "free" service includes sending restrictions which may not be identical to .Mac account restrictions but none are restriction free.

  • Mail doesn't open any message window unless I restart Mail

    Hey guys,
    This is really killing me here. Every once in a while when I click "new message" or "reply" nothing happens! If I quit mail and restart it - I find blank messages in the drafts folder - one empty message for every time I clicked "new message" or "reply" before quitting. Is there some kind of reset that will kill this sucker? I hope so. Really driving me nuts!
    Appreciate any help!
    Alex

    Hi all,
    The exact same this is happening to me. After I restart mail, the reply message opens, once for each time I hit reply. Same with new message. Also, I tried opening a note I had been working on for weeks, and it didn't open, so I restarted, closed the note (along with 10 other reply windows), and the note didn't save?
    Also, mail works fine for awhile, then begins doing this.
    Very frustrating, thanks for any help.

  • Mail randomly not delivered

    I am having problems with Mail.  Randomly, my mail does not reach it's recipients.  According to my service provider, they say a bad URL gets attached to my email and the message gets put into their spam filter.  I must stress that this is random problem.  It occurs mostly when I do a reply or a reply all, but has also happened on a newly composed email.  I have downloaded Sophos anti-virus and have done a scan.  This found one trojan which I deleted.  Further scans have yielded a clean system.  At one point I sent a test email to myself and did not receive it.  I have worked with the service provider quite extensively and the only thing they have come up with is this bad URL occasionally attached to my email.  I have set up a mail account on my son's mac to see if the problem occurs there also.  I'm guessing if the problem does not occur using my son's computer, the service provider will say the problem is with my computer.  I am most frustrated at trying to solve this problem.  Can anyone please advise?

    There are no exceptions thrown. This is what is puzzling me so badly. As far as I can tell, the mail is being delivered to the mail server properly, but its rejecting some messages, and accepting others. Like for instance, if i put gibberish in the email, like 7000 characters of gibberish, it forwards the email fine. Then I try to use a normally formatted HTML email, and I never end up getting it (I'm sending it to myself for testing purposes).
    Any ideas?
