Mail - at subdir's not autochecking new mail

When mail program not opened, new mail checked only for main folder (for example Gmail), but for sub folders new mail never auto-checked. Only if I open program and DIRECTLY open this mail sub folder.
For example my folders at Gmail:
inbox
Job
etc.
For Job folder and other folder new mail never checked.
Who to fix that problem?

Actually, I think I discovered that a new To Do can't be created from emails that are specifically addressed to me. Is that true? Why is that?

Mail does not create new emails based on the highlighted mailbox, but rather the receiving mailbox of whatever individual email happens to be highlighted. This was not the case prior to Lion. Is this a bug or an error on my part?

Mail does not create new emails based on the highlighted mailbox, but rather according the receiving mailbox of whatever individual email happens to be highlighted. This was not the case prior to Lion. Is this a bug or an error on my part? (I do have the setting for creating new emails from the highlighted mailbox checked.)

The questions about time was not only because of thinking about the Time Machine, but also possible impact on recognizing which messages remaining on a POP server (doesn't apply to IMAP) have been already downloaded. In the Mail folder, at its root level, in Mail 3.x there is a file named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 that should prevent duplicate downloading -- some servers may not communicate the best with respect to that, and the universal index must certainly be involved in updating that index file. If it corrupts, it can inhibit proper downloading. However, setting the account up in a New User Account and having the same problem does not point that way, unless your POP3 server is very different from most.
That universal index is also typically involved when messages are meant to be moved from the Inbox to another mailbox -- in Mail 3.x the message does not move, but rather is copied, and then erased from the origin mailbox. That requires updating the Envelope Index to keep track of where the message is, and should keep track of where it is supposed to have been removed after the "Move".

Mail not getting new mail

I have had my work account setup through Mail for almost 2 years without a problem. Today it stopped retrieving new emails. I went to Window...Connection Doctor and Connection Status is green and both for incoming and outgoing it shows green. I can send emails fine, but it won't retrieve new emails that I have received. I also get emails to this account through my phone and it is getting new incoming emails.
I have tried closing the app and restarting, doesn't work.
I have tried restarting the OS, doesn't work.
I haven't changed any settings in the past day, so its not a settings issue. That is unless Mail is now changing settings on its own.
What else can I do to solve this?

It does show in the bottom left that its connecting "Incoming messages..." and when it tries, it makes a tiny beep. Its not the "new email" sound, just a quiet, short beep. No idea what the sound means.

Mail not loading new gmail message

I have Apple Mail 4.3 and since 22 November it is not loading new gmail messages. New messages are appearing in gmail and iphone, but not in Mail - any ideas why this would be

I'm facing the same problem since 27 Dec 2010, can't find and fix for this problem.
I can download other mail accounts except imap.gmail.com, it just show loading and nothing happen, and it also choke up almost all my internet bandwidth.

Hope apple can look into this problem and I'm sure there are more out there having same issue.

Mail not showing new messages

As of about 4 days ago my Mail app is not displaying new e-mails. It says '19 incoming messages' but they never appear. I have tried:
- Replacing mail.plist with older version from time machine
- Rebuilding mailboxes
- Asking my web hosts if there is any problem their end - no problems there.
- Checked the 'get account info' box which displays the 19 messages with 'unknown sender' still on the server.
Any other ideas anyone?

Mail not fetching new data every 15 with 3g turned off

I had to turn 3g off in order to improve my reception and battery life. It seems to help somewhat, however I notice that the Mail application does not fetch new mail every 15 minutes like its setup to do. It works fine in 3g mode, just doesnt do it while its on edge. (I think it also works ok on wifi.)

Perhaps your in an area with awesome 3g reception but really bad Edge. Weird huh.

Mac mail will not add new accounts

Hi,
Recently I added two new email accounts to my mac Mail
Then the account started acting weird a few days ago—not letting me email myself (to a gmail account), refusing to put the email in the address field.
Thats the email associated with my computer, User ID.
Then it would no longer let me add new accounts in the preferences.
I would click the '+' sign, to add a new account, or choose it from the file options... Nothing. Nothing would happen.
It would let me delete accounts, but not add new ones.
I've tried EVERYTHING to fix this problem. I dragged the mail files out and trashed them, upgraded from snow leopard to lion and tried to reinstall the Mail package software — same problem. Finally, I deleted the user account on my Macbook Air — still the same problem with new Users.
When the Mail application opens, and guides me through the introduction, I can add one email address ONLY, then nothing else.
What gives?
Can anyone offer advice?
I have a Macbook Air and Lion, 10.7.

Does anyone have similar experiences?

I can not proceed in activating my account, because it has my old mail and not the new mail

Mail will not show new emails on my Mac Air but sends OK. Mail server is working

Hello
As I said above, Mail will not show new emails on my Mac Air but sends mails OK. The Mail server is working because my iPad is receiving and displaying incoming messages.
Your advice is most welcome.
Thanks!

Thunderbird successfully displays all of my e-mail accounts in the list of accounts and displays all of the inboxes correctly however it doesn't display the e-mails at my newest address in the unified inbox. To see them, I have to click on that particular e-mail accounts inbox. In every way, this account appears to be set up the same as the all the other ones. The newest e-mail account is a second account through Zoho. What do you think is the problem?

Thank you. I had to select the search from the menu instead og by right clicking but it worked just the same.

My mac mail not working, not accepting new password

My mail (mobile me) that is now icloud, is not getting new mail. It is there on web mail, but not on my lap top. It keeps saying my password is incorrect. I have changed password twice and still no luck...any suggestions?

Exactly so. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

Mail application will not update new messages

Mail application will not update new messages

If you have Webmail access you might check that, sometimes a malformed email can clog the system.
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup

Greetings,
What you posted is rather vague. By doesn't work do you mean the applications don't open at all or are you getting a message stating that your product needs activation? If it's product activation then that is something that Microsoft will have to assist you with. If your problem is that the applications simply won't open you may have to uninstall and reinstall Office again. This is common on the Windows platform too. Rarely when you upgrade to a new OS Office sometimes has an issue with the upgrade and won't open correctly. I would suggest merely uninstalling and reinstalling. Nine times out of ten that helps.

My upgraded version of mail with Windstream will not work with Mozilla Firefox. Why? Works find with the old Classic but not the new version

It switches to the Classic view but not the new view which I really like.... My laptop has Google Chrome and it has not problems with this new view of Windstream only with Mozilla Firefox 5, the other version never had any problems either...I had 3 and had no problems till I up graded....

The longer this thread continues, the more ancillary comments you throw in that aren't directly pertinent to your problem with your DVR software not working with Firefox 4.0. Sorry, I don't intend to continue with this discussion.
I do agree that ''something'' needs to be done better with regards to plugins for Firefox, but I do disagree with you as to whose responsibility that ''something'' is.
