Mail 7.0 downloads mail from IMAP server

After upgrading to OS X 10.9, Mail upgraded to 7.0, and downloaded all mail messages (almost 7 GB) from all my IMAP servers. The problem is that I don't want Mail to do that as I don't want to clutter my disk space.
I made an archive folder on one of my IMAP mail accounts and transfer all my old mail there from my several POP accounts to save my disk space regularly.
IMAP's main convenience is that it stores mail on servers, not locally on my Mac, and with Mail 7.0 I lost that advantage.
Is there any way to keep mail on IMAP servers without downloading it locally to my MBP?

Having the same problem!! I'm also on Mountain Lion.
Mail suddenly stopped sending and receiving mail from both my POP accounts which had been working fine, even on Mountain Lion, although calendars and other applications have always been unable to connect to them since Mountain Lion. I went to the supplier and they applied maintenance on my account. Didn't work. I deleted both my POP accounts to create them again. Now I can't get pass the verification process. Can't find any up to date tips. I'm really frustrated and wasted so much work time on this. Did you find a solution?

Get Mail to Stop Downloading Junk from Exchange Server

Our company uses Comcast Business Class for email service. They in turn are running Exchange 2007 servers.
I recently had to reconfigure all my email accounts do to a corrupt Mail plist. Upon doing so, I found out about Mail 4.2's (Snow Leopard edition) ability to auto discover Exchange server configurations. Pretty nifty. With one caveat. Apple Mail is downloading all the Junk mail that winds up on the Exchange server. Which is quite a bit.
Originally, before the corrupt plist problem, my Mail 4.2 was upgraded from Leopard and the account information transferred using the non-auto discovery method, if you will. When it was setup that way, there were only about two or three Junk messages that breached the barrier per day. Now I'm getting dozens.
On to my question: is there a way to configure Mail to stop downloading Junk mail from an Exchange server and just leave the Junk on the Exchange server?

Thanks, William.
They are, fortunately, being filtered into my Junk folder in Mail. There is the occasional culprit who sneaks through to my Inbox, but most wind up where they should. It's just the increase in volume to that Junk folder that has me concerned.
Additionally, if a non-Junk message gets erroneously tagged, I no longer have the option I once had to set the message as "This is not Junk". That used to appear as a graphic and button at the top of the message. It seems like I no longer have that capability.

Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts but the messages are in the server.

Hello, I'm having this problem. Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts. I don't know why but there're two accounts working so bad. If I click with the right button on the account and click to see the account details, I can see the messages on the server but not in inbox. I made a sync with this account and my iphone and then the iphone downlad the messages with out problems. Not my imac at work or my imac at home... what can be wrong?
Thanks.

For Gmail, this is normal, there is nothing you can do about it -- just type Mail AND Gmail in the search box to see threads discussing how Gmail works.
As for the other accounts, this shouldn't happen. I wonder if what you're seeing is just that Mail is ignoring this setting for mail that was already on the server when you started using it. I've seen something like this happen when playing with that setting, e.g. changing it from "After one day" to "After one week". Mail would just ignore messages that fell in the timeframe where the two settings could interfere and I didn't notice it until some time later, when Mail "forgot" those messages had already been downloaded and, being faced with them again, dutifully downloaded them as if they were all new.
I believe that, if you leave the setting however you wish and stop playing with it, then Mail shall correctly process any mail that arrives from now on. In order to manually delete old messages that Mail seems to be ignoring, you can invoke the Account Info window (this is probably what you meant when you said "I can delete messages individually"; if that's not the case and want more info on this, just ask).

Mail 2.1 recently stopped downloading messages from POP server

Hi there,
I am struggling with this one.
My mail has previously been workoing no problems, through a POP server (doctors.net.uk)
Since 26/06/06 it has stopped downloading messages from the server.
I can send mail from Mail no problem and it appears on the server.
The system preferences/network is fine.
The connection Dr tells me that it can access the account no problem.
The SOCKS proxy is not enabled.
I even altered the POP account preferences to delete all messages from the server older than 1 month (previously not enabled) whic it duly did without problem.
When I click get mail, it spins, there is no error message, but no new messages appear.
I have followed this with my POP account service who insist all is fine at their end.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Try this in case the problem is that Mail is actually downloading the messages but they are being incorrectly processed by the rules:
1. Quit Mail.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.0, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
4. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
5. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
6. Go online again if you went offline in step 4.
If the problem persists after doing this, then you know the rules have no bearing on it, and you may move the files on the Desktop back to the ~/Library/Mail/ folder, overwriting any files Mail may have created anew there (quit Mail first).
Note however that, if you want to test this with messages already on the server, you need to also remove the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 file again.

How can synchronized local imap folders be migrated to a new computer, without new download from imap server, so that everything is working as before?

How can synchronized local imap folders be migrated to a new computer, without new download from imap server, so that everything is working as before?
I only managed to import synchronized folders (from old computer) to local folders in thunderbird at the new computer. Then I tried to move the messages to the folder of the imap account at the new computer where I temporarily limited the synchronization to one month. When I remove this limit the thunderbird program starts to redownload all the messages again nonetheless.
Since I have a dual boot system (Windows/Linux, thunderbird is installed twice) and have to pay for every megabyte, this is very annoying.

Have you considered using a shared profile folder for the dual boot? so the two remain in sync?v It will require a drive both operating systems can access, but most people who dual boot have such. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder_-_Thunderbird
otherwise copy the entire profile, not parts of it.

Result of this code is : there is a pop up asking to open or save pdf format and process is complete, but i have problem in downloaded file.
At the time of creation i have put BMP image for signature in PDF file and it is working fine but when i upload that file in Application server and then download it with above used code it save the PDF file but when i open that file so whereever i have used signature that page gives error and could not display that scanned signature.
Can anyone please help me in this regard.

Downloading file from application server in Binary mode

Hi,
I am trying to read an application server file using open dataset in Binary Mode..
While downloading using gui_download method the file is getting truncated because of its size.
My questions are,
       How to increase the size of the internal table dynamically. Already tried using STRING type but it is not accepting.
       If I use the CHAR type with maximum length 65535 and if the length of the file is less than that then in the remaining spaces box like symbols are printed .
How can I achieve it.
Thanks & Regards,
NJ

hi jijeesh,
   Welcome to SDN.
u can use to download file from application server to presentation server using the t/c CG3Y. in that it will ask the source file path and the target file path.
if u want to find the source file path in the application server, u can use the transaction AL11 to find that one.

Error occurred while downloading files from Administration Server...

Hi guys,
If i already have my application deployed and exploded in ../tmp/_WL_user , when I restart the managed server it will try to download again the files from the upload directory in the Administration Servers? (I'm using stage mode).
Sometimes I got the following error:
Caused By: java.io.IOException: [DeploymentService:290066]Error occurred while downloading files from Administration Server for deployment request "0". Underlying error is: "null"
and I already have the war exploded in /tmp/_WL_user
the staging mode is not only for the first deployment? when i don't have the war exploded in /tmp/_WL_user?
I've some confusion related to the process or deployment/startup of the managed servers.
Thanks

Hi,
when you get following error * DeploymentService:290066 * then that means
A service on the machine is preventing the WebLogic Server remote instance from downloading the configuration file. This can be Hosts Intrusion Prevention (HIPS) agents or any other agent causing this issue.
Disable the agent interfering with the download process to fix this issue.

Kal
