hello, you have two extension present in your profile (DownloadTerms 1.0 & WhiteSmoke New 10.16.2.509) that could be considered malware.
please[[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] and see if those entries are still present afterwards. also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

Mail messages are marked "junk" in the outgoing mail box

For some time all my outgoing email messages have been marked as "junk" in the sent mail box. Today found that if I do not mark my personal information in my address book as "Me" my sent messages are no longer marked "junk". Does anyone know how I can fix the problem so my personal information can be marked "Me"?

The following procedure thoroughly gets rid of all the files used by the junk filter, so that Mail creates them anew, and should fix the problem in the cases where the simple procedure provided in my first post doesn’t:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. This file stores information about what does and doesn’t constitute junk, and allows the junk filter to learn. Deleting this file is what Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset does. The file was called LSMMap in early versions of Mail; delete that as well if you see it.
4. Locate any MessageRules.plist (Mail 2.x) and/or MessageSorting.plist (Mail 1.x) files and move them to the Desktop. This is where Mail stores all the rules, including the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
5. Locate DefaultCounts and move it to the Trash. This file keeps statistics about the number of messages that have been marked as junk, either automatically by the junk filter or manually by the user.
6. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox or Junk.imapmbox folder within it, and move it to the Trash if present.
7. Go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox mailboxes there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash.
Note: Steps 5, 6 and 7 may be unnecessary. Also, messages in Junk mailboxes with an .mbox suffix are stored locally and will be lost forever as a result of doing steps 6 and 7. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there that you want to preserve, either try skipping those steps, or move the messages to another mailbox in Mail first, or move Junk.mbox to the Desktop (to be imported back later) instead of to the Trash. Junk mailboxes with an .imapmbox suffix aren’t a concern because they are stored on the server and Mail would rebuild them automatically.
8. 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.
9. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
10. Go online again if you went offline in step 8.
If the above solves the problem and you don’t have any rules you’d like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just trash the rules files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

Where are the Mail files located?

Can some one guide me to the location of the mail boxes, files on my hard drive so that I can back them up.
I could do this with outlook, entourage but unable to find those files with Mail.app.
MacBook 10.5.1

The Mail data are located in the /Home/Library/Mail/ folder. Preference files are located in /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.
You can archive mailboxes by selecting the Archive Mailbox option from Mail's Mailbox menu.
If you do incremental backups of your hard drive with backup software, then there's no need to created separate backups of the mailboxes.

Can't set up a new mail box

When I try to create a new mail box I get the following error message:
"Mailbox Creation Failed
Unable to create path ~ /Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Saved.mbox."
What am I doing wrong?
PowerPC /g4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Mail has a bug that causes ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes to sometimes be a file instead of a folder, and that prevents Mail from creating any mailboxes there.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate Mailboxes. If it’s a file instead of a folder, move it to the Trash.
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.

I can only see the welcome to mail screen (iphone 5). I have set up mail successfully because it shows mail icon with messages. But I cant get into the mail box!

I can only see the welcome to mail screen (iphone 5). I have successfully set up the mail because it shows mail icon with messages (104 messages). But I cant get into the actual mail box to read them. Pls help!

The received emails should show in two locations:
1. In the All Inboxes tab of Mail.
2. The Inbox for each mail account,
If your emails are not showing in these locations try quitting the mail app and then reset your iPhone.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Mail box not open

Mail box not open

i would suggest you do the following in order:
1) shut down, start again, then see if you can launch mail
if that does not help then
2) delete the com.apple.mail.plist file located in homefolder/library/preferences, then see if you can launch mail
if that does not help then
3) restart the computer, immediately upon hearing the restart chime, then hold down the shift key until you get past a screen where you may see safe boot written in red and until you get to the log in screen or to the desktop, then immediately after that restart normally, then launch mail
if that does not help then
4) do you have plug ins or input managers installed with mail by any chance? if so then disabled/get rid of them - these are located in homefolder/library/mail/bundles. i would look at growl, which has been know to trigger repeated crashes in mail.
let me know and hope this helps

Voice Mail Messages not reaching e-mail boxes

I have an Exchange 2010 server and a Panasonic phone system with voice mail. Until recently my users could transfer voice mail messages to their e-mail as an attached WAV file. I have not made any significant changes that should affect this functionality.
I worked with a voice system technician who verified that the messages are being created and sent by the VM System. However, they are no longer being delivered to the users e-mail box.
I checked to make sure that the password is correct for the mail account, I have white listed the voicemail system in the Exchange Server, and I have tested e-mail to and from the special e-mail account established for this purpose and all seem to work correctly.
I am wondering if there is some new security requirement or SPAM filter in Exchange which might be getting in the way.

See:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124531(v=exchg.141).aspx
By default, the Receive connector protocol log files are located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\TransportRoles\Logs\ProtocolLog\SmtpReceive, and the Send connector protocol log files are located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\TransportRoles\Logs\ProtocolLog\SmtpSend.
The directory must be local to the Exchange 2010 computer.
If Exchange received the message, you can also check message tracking on the Exchange Server.

Back-up mail boxes?

How can I back-up my mail boxes...and then if there is a mail failure, reinstall them?

Best method is using Apple's Backup application.
Another method is to copy the files manually to removable media, or another alternate location.
The files you need all reside here: /Users/YourUserNameHere/Mail/
Just copy that folder and save it. If something goes wrong with your mail, you should need only copy that folder back to it's original location.
I once had a problem with my mail not being present, Mail app would not load up right. I restored my backup of the Mail folder, and restarted Mail. All was fine.
I seriously recommend using Backup. It is a very simple app and will save your butt!

Mail Box open in Other computer\account

hi
Is there any way to know if my mail box is open in other computer\account ?
for Example Goole . Last Account Activity
Thank you
Dano

Hi,
In Exchange 2013, we can use
Get-MailboxStatistics cmdlet to find Last Logon Time for a user with Exchange mailbox by the following command:
Get-MailboxStatistics –Identity “user”
Otherwise, please refer to the following link to get recent activity. The “Recent activity” page shows info about the activity in your Microsoft account, within the last 30 days. This includes any time that you signed in to your account, whether you used
a web browser, your phone, an email app, a third-party app, or another method.

Is there a limit to the number of mail boxes in mail?

I cannot set up a new mailbox under the mail box menu within Mail. All I get is a "boing.

Mail is set to check every 5 minutes.
The error it reports is "Could not connect to the IMAP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, uncheck the "Use SSL" checkbox in the Avanced tab of Account preferences"
However, I'm sure it's not a problem with the settings because 1) these settings have been fine for weeks, and 2) if i inactivate any of the accounts the others (that are showing errors) no longer show errors).
If I have fewer accounts connecting, or if I switch of SSL, then the errors go away.
I would prefer to connect using SSL, which is why I'm not simply switching off SSL and forgetting about it.

Lost Mail Boxes and Smart Boxes

Hi can anyone give me some advice please as I have had to reinstall and have lost all of my smart boxes and some mail boxes which had valuable information.
Thank you in advance for any advice you can give.
Janey

No, you are not doing anything wrong. The original e-mail stays in your inbox until deleted, which will also delete it from the Smart Folder. The Smart Mailbox is a 'sorting' tool,but it doesn't actual contain the e-mails.

How do I get rid of duplicate "in" and "sent" mail boxes?

I have installed a new version of Thunderbird on a new machine and used Easy Transfer to move my mail boxes etc from my old machine. The problem is that I now have duplicate "in" and "sent" mail boxes. New in and sent mail only appears in one of them but I can't delete the other. I have deleted all messages in the extra "in" box (they were all duplicates) but have not been able to do the same with the messages in the duplicate "sent" box because the "deleted" folder where they would go is not big enough to take the 16000 messages in there (when I "select all" and "delete" it just says "deleted folder is full" when in fact there's nothing in it; I am assuming this just means it would not take all the messages to be deleted). Help please!

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.
