Mail closing issue

Mail takes a very long time to close. Does anyone know what is the reason why and how to ricover the issue?

Re-do the process, there is a ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist file, you need to be careful looking.

Mail Wont Open at all! "Mail closed unexpectedly"

Hi,
Restarted my Macbook after a preferences error and for some reason I cannot open mail. When I click the applications icon in the dock a box appears in the centre of my screen telling me that "Mail closed unexpectedly". It gives me the option to 'Cancel' 'Report to Apple' or 'Re launch'. I have reported to apple numerous times and it doesn’t seem to have done any good. When I click re launch the box appears again, then when I re launch again i get a different message saying that Mails preferences will be reset so try and fix the problem. This doesn’t work. Hope someone can help me!

Transport Mail Database issues crashing Transport service

We are experiencing frequent issues on Hub servers (as often as once a week) where Transport Mail DB issues crash the Transport service. Had an MS specialist in the other day who could not exactly figure out the root cause. The pattern usually is as follows:
1. Event ID 486 - This event refers to a failure to move a log file (associated with Transport Mail DB queues) because it is being used by another process. What that process could be is unknown.
2. Event ID 413 - Unable to create a new logfile because the database cannot write to the log drive.
3. Event ID 492 - The logfile sequence in <dir> has been halted
4. Event ID 17019 - A database operation has encountered a I/O error. The Microsoft Exchange Transport service is shutting down. Exception details: Microsoft.Exchange.Isam.IsamLogWriteFailException: Failure writing to log file (-510)
Also followed by events 7001,1022,1002, and 1003.
Haven't been able to determine what is causing Event ID 486. Not aware of any process that would be tying up the access to the log file. These queue files are stored on a local disk, not a SAN.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this? Running E2K7SP1 Rollup 2 currently on all Exchange systems.

Hi,
I suggest that you use the following method to check which process access the log file indicated in the event 486:
Using Process Explorer
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx
Then, we did the following:
1. Launch Process Explorer
2. Click Find, Find Handle or DLL
3. Enter the log name indicated in the event 486 and click Search
In addition, please also check whether any events such as 150004 occur before the Transport service crashes. If you notice the event, I also suggest that you refer to the following article:

CS4 closing issues

I have read a few topics on this however there has never been any form of real answer.
I have been looking at using Photoshop CS4 and downloaded the trail. All was going well and I liked it, then it starting closing itself down for no reason at all. No warning messages, nothing. I deleted the preference file and I managed to work with it for over an hour wihout problems. Closed it in the usual way and continued with someother work. Then I started PS again and the closing issue returned - so back to deleting the preference file and restart the app. This time the problem did no go away, so I am stuck with this closing issue.
I really want to buy CS4 so would welcome and suggestions. I am running XP SP3, 1.1Ghz with 1.5GB RAM. When it works it works well and fast too!
Cheers
Andrew

The minimum system requirements states at least a 1.8GHz processor. And that's likely problematic, or at least slow.

Outgoing Mail server issues

ooutgoing mail server issues. Rebooted phone, changed password, changed port everything and still no luck !!

Its something to do with my phone it's self. The exact details in another phone works !! Just can't figure it out.

Mail app issues

This is more of a Mail app issue, and I've posted the question on that board, but I thought I'd post it here because I'm hoping some admins might have dealt with a similar issues:
Is anyone having success with clients on Network Homes using Leopard's Mail.app and an IMAP server?
Things used to work on the same client machines under Tiger, but after upgrading them to Leopard, Mail.app flat out refuses to work.
Users with portable homes seem to have better luck.
Some symptoms:
after working fine for 15-20 seconds, preview pane gets stuck on a "Loading" message. Double-clicking the same email opens it just fine in a separate window.
auto-fill of addresses in the To: field doesn't work. (The little circle on the right just keeps spinning.)
Mail.app does not pull any new incoming messages.
Mail.app refuses to quit cleanly. Force-quitting is the only way to make it quit
Mail.app randomly needs to "Quit or Quit and Rebuild" the database.
Thanks.

Mail Connection Issue

Dear all,
     I have an issue with my mail on my MacBook Pro since Mountain Lion update.
     After I "wake up" my Mac(lid up the display) Mail App is unable to to connect to my e-mail accounts with error message: "Unable to Connect".
     I have to restart the app to get my mail working propperly(connect propperly).
     There are two e-mail acconts, one Icloud and one IMAP.
Thanks in advance.

After further investigation, this appears to be an issue with Mail that hasn't been fixed by Apple yet. There's a ton of people experiencing the same issue as you. Some have been able to fix it via updating OSX to the latest build, but others continue to have the issue even after that. Moving accounts to Outlook seems to be the only stable solution, but that may not be what you're looking for. For now, either make it a habit to close out of Mail before sleeping or restart it after waking to fix this. As a more streamlined workaround, if you log off before closing your lid, when you log back in, the system will automatically reopen all your programs that were running before if you leave that option checked. I know it's not what you want as well, but at least this way you don't have to do the restart of the app yourself.

Yahoo mail connection issue on iPhone4s iOS6

I have recently updated my iPhone software to iOS6. Now I am unable to connect to the yahoo server on my mobile phone. The error that I get is: "apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com" is not responding. check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "Incomimg mail Server" field.

Please advise.

Sender Mail Adapter issue

Hi All,
We are getting this error in Sender Mail adapter.
"exception caught during processing mail message; java.net.ConnectException: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation"
It is a (Lotus Notes) Mail to File scenario.
Used POP3, and gave the URL as POP:// ** .
I have tried pinging the server and getting a good response.
I have also tried the OS01 ans it returned a response : Program Terminated.
I am not sure if the POP3 port is enabled.
Are there any check points we are missing ?
Please throw some light on this as we need to solve this asap ..
Yashwanth

Shabarish is right.
This seem a connectivity issue. Try to ping Mail server from your PI System and check pop3 port.

Unity Express voice mail timing issue.

Hi,
I have installed one uc520 at one of our customer. i configured voice mail but there is one issue with the voice mail timing. Suppose i retrive the voice mail the voice mail prompt is giving the wrong time. Suppose I send a voice mail to a subscriber at 3pm, the voice mail prompt is saying 'message send at 4 pm'.
I checked both cme and cue clock settings and both are showing the correct time.
Can anybody help me on this issue
Regards

Are the calls to CUE getting dropped when you dial from an IP Phone at site 1 (callmanager) ?
How is the CME router setup in Callmanager ? Is it added as a regular H323 gateway or a H225 trunk ? Either ways, make sure the gateway registers with the correct IP that is used in Callmanager.
So if CME has a wan ip (a.a.a.a) and a lan ip (b.b.b.b), if you add b.b.b.b as the CME gateway's ip address in Callmanager, then you need to bind the H323 ip address as follows.
interface fa0/0
ip add b.b.b.b
h323-gateway voip bind srcaddr b.b.b.b
Most likely the CME gateway is sending calls to Callmanager using ip address a.a.a.a which is the wan ip, through which it has the default route to Callmanager.
Hope that makes sense!

For those new to mail with issues sending and receiving mail

I was surprised that I did not see anyone referring to this amazing and invaluable tool, the Mail Setup Assistant:
http://www.apple.com/support/macosx/mailassistant/
This tool get's me through troubleshooting sessions more than anything else. Most problems are due to settings when it comes to Mail. Half the time issues with sending emails is just due to SMTP settings, sometimes you do not need to have Authentication for outgoing mail. Sometimes your password is just incorrect. Use Mail Setup Assistant it is pretty **** accurate I use it on a daily basis.
Sometimes the settings are perfect and sometimes you just have to erase mail completely by doing:
~/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist pull.
~ refers to your home folder!
Hope this helps!

It is a very good idea, however many of us do not live in the USA, so cannot yet take advantage of this tool.
Pity!

Closing Issue of P&L a/cs

Hi,
I'm using SAP B1 2007 B PL:07 from the last financial year(2008-09).
But, after last year closing ,the system still showing the closing balances of
P&L Accounts(i.e.- Sales & Expenditure a/cs) as on 01/04/09.
Whereas, only balance sheet a/c balances should come.
Can anyone tell me the solution.
Rgds
Subrata

Hi,
Make sure that you have chosen all periods to process 'Period End Closing'.
Also make sure to use that the following criteria is used in the Trial Balance Report;
- Disp Opening Balance for Period
- OB from start of company Activity.
- Trial Balance
I think you are using 'OB Start of Fiscal year' instead of 'OB start of Company Activity'.
'OB start of fiscal year' is only relevant in case you are not running the TB with a start date that is not the first date of the fiscal year. This selection criteria will give you the transaction fro m the start of the fiscal year to the start date of the report date.
NB:If there are balances on all P&L accounts in the new fiscal year,that amount would not be carried over.
Hope this will clarify your issue !

Mail attachment issues in full screen apps

This is an interesting issue. So far it only occurs with MS Excel. When Mail is open as a full screen app and I open an xlsx file attached to a mail message the screen shifts back over to the desktop screen as it should, but the Excel window remians locked with the Mail full screen app. At this time, I cannot swipe back over to Mail, it just shifts back over to the desktop screen every time I try. The only resolution that I have found so far is to quite Mail from my dock icon and relaunch. This then moves the Excel window to my desktop screen.
I wonder if this is only an issue with programs that do not suppport full screen apps.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Marc

Have you tried toggling - Command, Control, F
If you do a 5 finger swipe up do you see Apple Mail as it's own desktop? If so when you expand Apple Mail use the green traffic dot in the upper left side instead of the full screen double arrow on the upper right side.
