Mail application doesn't work

So as usual, I updated the software on My mac and laptop... it is version 10,6.8 and now my mail applications Version: 4.6 won't open. Says it is the wrong version to work with the software... this is the FIRST time I am unhappy with my Apple products. Now to take the time to figure this out. I know enough to be technologically dumb.

  • Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML

    My Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML
    Mail client connects with the Mail Server wich seems to run but then they can't receive any email...
    the problem seems to be related with dovecot ... in my smtp log i get this:
    relay=dovecot, delay=324, delays=324/0.02/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: pipe: fatal: pipe_command: execvp /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver: Permission denied
    I have to say that in the usr/libexec there wasn't the dovecot directory so I just tried to create one but with no luck
    Any Ideas?

  • Mail app doesn't work

    Mail app doesn't work after Yosemite OSX upgrade. At first it didn't check email and now it doesn't boot. I tried many times, but nothing happens

    Ok after nearly going crazy I read something about someone having a problem with a program related to fonts not being installed. I started up font book and now my problem is miraculously resolved... This is good and bad. I don't know why having font book running would resolve my problem or know what font is causing the programs not to work. As far as I know I didn't disable any system fonts. And the problem doesn't happen when font book is running, which is confusing me.

  • My "sent mail " tone doesn't work. All other tones do work.   I've changed tones and rebooted. Still silent

    "sent mail" tone doesn't work. All other tones do. What to do?

    Hi Gwing17,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that all of your iPhone sounds are working as expected except for the Sent Mail sound. I understand that you have already changed the Sent Mail sound as well as reset your iPhone and the issue persists. In this situation, to isolate the issue, I would first recommend backing up your iPhone to either iTunes or iCloud.
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    After you have backed up, I would recommend restoring your iPhone and setting it up as new to test the Sent Mail sound. If the sound works as expected, try restoring from your backup and test the sound again. Please let me know if the issue returns or if the sound still does not work when you set up your iPhone as a new device.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • GPO don't run specified windows applications doesn't work to in win 8.1. any ideas why?

    GPO "don't run specified windows applications" doesn't work to in win 8.1. any ideas why?  it is enabled and list of progs is entered however I can still run all progs on list.  This is a local machine not on a domain.  I must

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    Most of the locations and search are not shown.

    I'm totally disappointed because of that. 

    Try doing a reset - hold down the sleep/wake button and the Home button together until the Apple logo appears, then let them go and allow the iPad to finish restarting. Then launch Safari and try to open a new tab.

  • E-mail notification doesn't work after software upgrade

    Based on the recommendation of a sales rep; I did the software upgrade yesterday and have had nothing but problems.  All the e-mail accounts didn't work.  So I spent an hour getting my e-mails setup and guess what?
    Even though I have it setup to check every 10 minutes; it doesn't work.  I have to manually go to each account and click on the 2 arrows to check.  I used to get a flashing blue light on my phone when I had a new e-mail; now I don't.
    What's going on???????????????

  • ICloud : automatic mail forward doesn't work

    Hi,
    I've setup an automatic mail forwarding through icloud.com mail application, in preferences.
    At first, it worked.
    A few days later it doesn't.
    I've tryed to disable, enable, re-type the destination email address (gmail), nothing works : mails won't be forwarded, but they get deleted (I checked the option, this one works).
    I've contacted Apple Support Express Lane, who reset my preferences on the server (it changed nothing to the preferences I see) : there is no result on this one either.
    When I forward an email manually to the same gmail address : it works.
    Any of you having the same issue ?

    Update. It appears that auto forwarding works except for emails sent from a gmail account associated with the "forward to" address. If I send from my comcast account it works, but if I send from my gmail account, using the gmail or comcast address, it doesn't. On the plus side, mail sent from other gmail accounts apeears to work.  So other than for testing purposes, this may not be a big deal.

  • Using GMail as the mail app doesn't work

    I have Firefox 11.0, OS X 10.7.3 Lion. In Firefox, I go to Preferences / Applications, and set the default MailTo app handler as GMail. I restarted Firefox, when I click on a mailto link nothing happens (just the click highlight). I installed Google Notifier, and when I launch the Mail app, I made sure the default mail program is Google Notifier. Still doesn't work.

    Interestingly enough, clicking a hyperlink from Safari works great - launches Firefox tab with a new message composed.

  • Mail Application doesn't keep data of my Yahoo mail account

    Hello! I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS Lion (10.7.3) and in the last two weeks I face the following problem with the Mail application and my Yahoo mail account: although the account appears in the side bar of the application and it will search for new messages when I launch the Mail app, it doesn't load any messages and I also realised that all Mailboxes of the named account are blank! The messages appear normally when I reach my account through the Yahoo page! I tried to remove and re-import the account in the Mail app, but it just worked for two days and now the Mailboxes are blank again! I have no problems with the other two mail accounts I reach through the same application (both POP accounts). Any possible solution?

    What I would like to add is that the problem only appeared last week, without doing anything ... I have had no such problems since September I got the computer ...

  • Junk mail filter doesn't work all the time

    Why doesn't the Junk mail filter work all the time? I click on mail like from Best Buy or Omni Hotels to go into junk mail but hardly any of their mail goes into Junk. Other sites go directly to Junk. If I click on a Best Buy mail to indicate it's Junk, shouldn't that work 100% of the time forever and ever?

    The Junk filter is based on an analysis of the content of the message. It ignores the sender. (Filtering based on the sender is an ineffective way of dealing with true spam, since spammers use constantly-changing spoofed addresses.)
    If you don't want mail from a legitimate sender like Best Buy, unsubscribe from their ads. If that doesn't work, make a Rule to delete or move the messages.
