Mail app keeps re-caching all messages when it starts

Hello
In past 10 days i have a very big problem which gives me headaches already. The problem is ( i did not change anything!) mail.app keeps re-caching all messages and attachments everytime i start the app. I have over 40.000+ mails so you do the math about how my bandwith eaten by the app. As i said i did not change anything. Anyway after searching dozens of forums and suggestions i did these steps:
- removed MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 files. No fix alsa mail.app won't create new ones since then
- removed whole cache, files, folders and accounts and re add them. No fix
- Clean install of mavericks. No fix
- Tried other apps like airmail, sparrow. Kinda no fix because airmail wont download whole messages only 1 month period even i choose to have all messages. Sparrow keeps giving error of unable to locate folders on the server. Only my windows thunderbird client works like a charm, there is no any issue at all but i hate windows.
- some terminal commands before clean install which i really dont remember due to high number of commands. By the way i am using IMAP settings
I really need a help here. I am talking about huge number of mails which are very important for me.
Thank you

Please read this whole thread:
Mail keeps downloading everything over and over.

You need to create HTML signatures for use with the Apple Mail apps. You can't just throw in a logo, it has to be stored on the internet and it's location coded into your signature. You may find a service and an app that helps you do that in the iTunes App Store.

Printing all messages when WEBLOGIC starts in its log file

Hello i am following all these steps
Step 1. Copy log4j-1.2.9.jar & wllog4j.jar under domain_root/lib folder.
Step 2. Create log4j.xml and drop it under domain_root folder. If you have log4j.xml inside the application(EAR/WAR), I would recommend to move outside EAR/WAR as
changing severity (log level) would require re-deployment. To avoid this, we can move log4j.xml into domain root folder but again the server needs to be bounced.
But there is a fix.
Step 3. Login to weblogic server console. Go to Servers -> Admin Server-> Logging.
Click on advanced mode. Change the logging implementation from JDK to Log4J.
Click save.
Step 4. Activate changes. Re-start the admin server.
This should enable log4j and should write logging into log file mentioned in log4j.xml or properties file.
Hang on! There is a catch here. Say now I want to change the log level from DEBUG into WARN or ERROR.
How do i do?
We go to log4j.xml and change the level.
Now how does this change take into effect? It needs bouncing of the server.
I have given below sample log4j.xml for your reference...
log4j.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM
"log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration>
<appender name="CONSOLE" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern"
value="%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="FILE" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="/log/myApp.log"/>
<param name="Append" value="true"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %t %-5p %c{2} - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<logger name="org.apache">
<level value="WARN"/>
</logger>
<logger name="org.springframework">
<level value="WARN"/>
</logger>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG"/>
<appender-ref ref="FILE"/>

</root>
</log4j:configuration>
I Followed all these steps , but finally i am getting an empty file myApp.log at specified destination , i want all log messages inside that file when WEBLOGIC starts , so what needs to be done for that

I guess the issue here is that somehow the log4j configurations are not getting picked up.
Please try adding the LOG4j configurations explicitly onto the classpath:-
set LOG4J_CONFIG_FILE=log4j.xml
set SAVE_JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -Dlog4j.configuration=%LOG4J_CONFIG_FILE%
@REM set SAVE_CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%
set SAVE_CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domain\config

TS2998 mini mac server Mail App keeps freezing for all users.

not an email or password or ISP problem, an issue with the machine.
mini mac server late 2011
moountian lion operating system.
all was ok until about a month ago when this issue develops.
cant investigate because the program freezes, but only on this machine
any ideas?

FWIW I've been struggling with this for a long time across many computers. Almost reliably when I look at my aggregate Inbox I see messages including new messages in my Exchange account's inbox, but when I click on the Exchange Inbox I would see nothing. Then I would have to quit and restart Mail and the box would show up.
Irregularly I would also occasionally get into a situation where all new messages received in the Exchange account would show no content when selected. When this happened in the past I would have to go through a separate webmail interface to read them.
This week I experienced a new wonder where the account was online and appeared to Synchronize OK, but I stopped getting new messages. Reboot, offline/online, disable/enable account: none of these fixed it.
Finally I just found a workaround: by modifying the account to store no messages on the computer, and then restarting mail, it was forced to ask the server for the messages again. Minutes of synching later and I'm back up to speed. I've turned local message storage back on again, because I doubt I can live without it, but it might help solve someone else's problems.

This worked for someone
I had this problem for about six weeks. I was following this forum but was too unsure of what might happen to try the fixes that were suggested.
About two weeks ago I decided to delete the downloads.28.sqlitedb file (usingDiskAid(a free program), on a PC running Windows 7). The original downloads.28.sqlitedb was 936 KB. The new one that the system created is 80 Kb., and has stayed at about that size. After about four days I also deleted all the other contents of the Download folder. Ten days later and still no more problems. Downloads are much quicker, nothing greys-out (as was happening frequently before).
Everything has worked well since with no more error messages.
I am using an iPod 4G, iOS 5.1 (originally iOS 5.0). I do not have a manifest file, and as far as I know, have not had one. DiskAid can search the whole "hard drive" on the iPod.
Deleting downloads.28.sqlitedb and the contents of Downloads worked for me.

You are seeing the message because the new AirPort Extreme has some specific System Requirements:
http://www.apple.com/airport-extreme/specs/
Setup and Administration
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
AirPort Utility 5.6.1 in Snow Leopard may or may not work correctly with the new Extreme for all functions. As long as things are working OK for now, you can probably leave them "as is" and wait for another Mavericks update to fix some issues before you "upgrade".
If you have an iPhone or iPad, you could use that to administer any settings changes on the new Extreme.

If you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
open the Terminal application.
copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
followed by Enter.
launch App Store, login.
2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:

Preview And Mail Apps Keeps Freezing Up in Yosemite

I've posted before regarding the numerous performance issues that I have since upgrading to Yosemite on my MacBook Pro. I have contacted Apple Support and have even gone to the Genius Bar, but any fixes are always short-lived.
Here's what is happening: When I launch Preview to open something (e.g., a photo), the app freezes up. I also notice that if I go to the Apple Mail app, there is a keystroke lag when I type.   Also, the battery drains down much faster...
Running the Disk Utility/rebooting will fix the problem for a day or so, until it rears its ugly head again...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the EtreCheck Report:

Mail app keeps crashing after Yosemite update

I just bought a new MB Pro a couple of months ago. Hardly any apps installed.
After the upgrade to Yosemite the mail app keeps crashing when I launch it. I have read a lot of other topics but I can't find a solution.
Anybody out there who can help me? Or should I just wait on an update for this?
Regards
Rob

Did a clean install of Yosemite after issues with constant crashes on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro. Then tried Migration Assistant which hung up forever (12 hours) at 7 minutes to go. Forced quit and rebooted. I tried this after the initial reinstall transferring files from the worthless non-function software rouse called "Time Machine" which should be renamed "Waste of Time Machine". So I have spent endless hours on various Apple support forums on Time Machine, Migration Assistant, and Apple Mail forums, with dozens of users with similar or the very same issues. The most striking thing in all these forums is that there are no "this solved my problem" posts, and any response from any Apple support person or employee is 100% absent. I have used nothing but Macs since 1987. In the last few weeks I've spent more time trying to solve Mac computer OS issues than using my Macs. The Tim Cook era is starting to mirror the Ken Scully era when Apple was the company you loved to hate. Lovely hardware designs -- crappy worthless software. No mail, no 8000 image iPhoto library (despite two levels of backups) - no way to recovery that I can discover. Spaceship buildings, silly watches (which I predict will go the way of the of the Newton), daft Siri, and complete lack of focus on software that actually functions with the pretty hardware. I love my iPad and iPhone, but I see Windows and Android in my future, after 27 years of blind, and in retrospect, misplaced Apple loyalty. The Apple Titanic has an iceberg dead ahead of it that it is too blind to see.

I deleted 4 accounts and the mail app keeps trying to contact the old account server causing thousands of emails to be processed and causing my ISP to charge my account 20-30GB of data. Why is this happening and how do I stop this activity?
