mail app closes when not used for a while how fix?

This may also be due to the Sudden Termination feature built into OS X, which will effectively quit a process if the system is demanding resources. Mail can be a RAM hog at times, and if your system only has a few GB of RAM, then when other programs demand more and you have not been using Mail then the system will invoke Sudden Termination to quit it so more RAM is available elsewhere.
Do you have only ~2-4GB of RAM in your system? Check for this in the About This Mac option in the Apple menu, and if so then consider upgrading to more if your system supports it. Alternatively you can try quitting other applications to free up more RAM.
To see which programs are using the most RAM, open the Activity Monitor utility and choose My Processes from the drop-down menu. Then ensure Real Memory is checked in the View > Columns menu, and click this menu's title to sort the items by it.
Keep in mind that sudden termination does not fully quit the program, so Mail may still show up in Activity Monitor when you open it even though it may be closed from the Dock.

Mail app closes when trying to send email

I can receive mail ok, but when I try to send, it just closes the mail app and goes back to the home page.
Any suggestions how I can get the mail app working properly again?
Thanks

Ah, yes... a common problem. Relaying is when you are using email service A to send mail through, but your "from" address is another service. Service A, if it's set up for this, will reject your email because you are trying to relay the email through them from an email address that is not theirs. This is to prevent spammers from using their service even though they don't have an account with them.
I suspect the service you are sending to is one on which you have a valid account, but you're sending "from" another address. In such cases the relaying service may allow you to specify, in your email settings, your account and password, in which case it will accept your email and pass it through.

Mail app crashing when it checks for mail

Hi.
This is becoming quite frustrating. I open mail, and it's set to check for mail every few minutes, so immediately it checks for mail on my two POP accounts.
As the little things next to each account appear and start turning the application crashes out. Numerous restarts show the same thing.
PLEASE let me know what I can do to fix this. I dont have webmail access for the one account and need to get lots of work done.
Perhaps reinstall the mail application? But how?
Regards,
Simon

Hi Simon.
Problems arising right after installing a system update are usually the result of some filesystem corruption that should have been fixed first, or not having installed the update properly (e.g. applications running while installing it), or having ignored Apple’s “Important: Please read before installing” warnings, etc.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Reading your first post, I would suggest the following to check whether the junk filter could have a bearing on it:
1. Either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down your Internet connection and open Mail afterwards.
2. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail and disable junk mail filtering.
3. Go online again.
Reading your last post, however, it looks like Mail crashes even when offline, so the problem must be something else.
When an application crashes (i.e. quits unexpectedly), the system writes information about the state of the application at the moment of the crash to a log file. That information is called a crash report and makes troubleshooting easier. In order to find and post the relevant part of the crash report here, proceed as follows:
1. Open ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Mail.crash.log. The whole crash log appears in a Console window (you can also open that file with any text editor). It may contain many crash reports. We only want the latest, which is located at the bottom of the file.
2. Look for a line that begins with “Date/Time:” as close to the bottom as possible, and another that says “Thread N Crashed:”, where N is a number. Select everything from the “Date/Time:” line to the lines immediately following “Thread N Crashed:”. Copy that text and paste it in your post. Do not post the whole crash log, and do not include anything beyond the lines immediately following “Thread N Crashed:” either, just the relevant part.
Take a look at the following thread for examples of what a crash report looks like:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=466701
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

Older Lense Not Used for a While - Any Care Needed?

I have a 100-300 Ultrasonic Lens that I want to use in a newer Rebel DSLR camera. It was well cared for when I used it, and has since been kept in a clean, dry place. It looks ok when I inspect it, but I'm wondering if there is anything else I need to inspect or do. Of course I could just use it and see how it goes (waiting for new camera - thought I would ask now).
Thanks!

Go use it. It will be fine.

DELL XPS 12 BSOD when not used for several minutes

Dear all,
since one month I'm experiencing a strange behavior from my DELL XPS 12 9Q33, Mid 2013 with Windows 8.1 Pro. When the notebook is left unattended for more than 5 minutes, it freezes with the BSOD with two different causes: KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_EXCEPTION
and
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I already activated the Verifier Utility and debugged the results of the memory dump, obtaining following reason:
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If kernel debugger is available get stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffcf80c94c2fb8, memory referenced
Arg2: 0000000000000002, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
Arg4: fffff800b76aa534, address which referenced memory

What to do with Time Capsule when not using for Wireless Internet

I previously connected my Time Capsule to my fiber optic router but in my no home this is no longer needed as the cable TV company now provides 160 MPS Internet in a router that contains a wireless router built in. It works fine. My computer is now connected wirelessly to that router (too far to take advantage of the wired connection).
Therefore I want my Time Capsule to just be connected to the computer for backups. I gather I have to connect it via Lan and make sure it does not transmit r receuve wirelessly. In fact, other wireless computers in the huse occasionally try to log into the old Time Capsule PPoE settings, so I want to erase them and start fresh.
This seems to be similar to what I want t do, but I want to make sure and ask:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/8256674#8256674
If this is not correct, can someone advise.
By the way, I have a first generation Aiport Express that I hope to use with my new cable router (modem?). I assume it will work as it did with the Time Capsule. Purpose is for Airplay with an audio system.
Thanks!

Thank you for your replies. I really appreciate it.
To answer your questions in order, but first I should mention that due to work reasons, I will be away from my computer until Friday night Japan time, or Friday AM US time.
Anyway, probably better I go slowly,as I tend to get overwhelmed by technical things.
1) You said: "The TC does NOT require an Internet connection for network connectivity. You DO have to connect the TC by Ethernet to the Fiber Optic router in order for it to gain network connectivity AND to allow network clients to access it."
-->Ok, this is in reference to my Time Capsule and the previous network n myold apartment. But your next question makes me wonder:
2) "Is this Motorola device the one that replaced the Fiber Optic router that you mentioned in your original post? What is its model number? Do you have the TC connected directly to it by Ethernet?"
Ok, this is what I have:
Wall--> Cable modem with wireless (Motorola SURFboard SBG6580J Wireless Cable Modem Gateway.)
Other Room IMAC connected wirelessly to Cable Modem (no Ethenet connection to it since there is no jack and too far to run a cable (permanently--I can do for setup if needed)---> connected to TC and Time Capsule is backing up ok. Time Capsule is also not connected to the Modem
3) "Since you will only want to use the Time Capsule for Time Machine backups, I understood that you wanted to disable its wireless network. If this is still the case, the Express would need to be configured to join the wireless network provided by the Motorola wireless router."
Yes, This is what I am wondering. Do I have to connect it by LAN to the Motorola? A few times, when it was just plugged into the Wall, my Mac airport utility found but them could not connect to my Express. maybe because I did not configure it to work with the Motorola as you say.
4)
"By default the Express will broadcast its own wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. You would need to connect to this network with your computer prior to attempting to access it with the AirPort Utility. Another option would be to temporarily connect it, by Ethernet, to the Motorola router during its setup phase. Once completed you can move it to the desired location."
Ok, this confirms what I guessed. Connecting the computer to the Expressby Lan? Is that what you mean?
I do understand the second option---connecting the Express to the Motorola.
If that is right, I can try that. Do I need to do anything other than connect it?
I will be able to try this Friday or Saturday I hope.
Once again. thanks for all your help. Really appreciate your taking the time to explain it.

Why when I try to update certain app it require an old email address and password I have not used for years and I do I get to update them on my new details

Apps are tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase them and you will always need to use that ID and password in order to update them.
Saying that you do get to update them on your new details makes no sense at all.

Need Help Ye,
boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Is it still very slow?

backpack12,
Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.
