Mail does not wrap words

Tried composing an email today and words simply break at the end of the line and begin again on the next line. Unable to see what might cause words to break randomly rather than at natural breaks. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm getting this problem, too. It seems sporadic - I only notice it on longer emails, and it's always something that affects later paragraphs. So, the first 4 paragraphs of an email-in-progress wrap and break normally, but then paragraphs 5 and on break at the width of the window, splitting words down the middle at whatever point is at the edge.
Very weird and very annoying. Hopefully, someone knows something about it...

Filter in mail does not work

All of a sudden, filtering in Mail does not work.
If I type a word that I KNOW appears in several emals, in the Search Mailbox field in the top right corner, it comes up empty.
That happens even if I type the word "and".
I have the All button selecterd.
Is anyone else having this trouble?
Thanks.

Also, many of these emails use your friend's email address as the source email, so it will circumvent your attempts to filter by in address book.
Take a look at the Raw source of the email and see if any of your conditions are being triggered as valid.

Double clicking a new e-mail does NOT show whole e-mail

double clicking a new e-mail does NOT show whole e-mail unless I go to forward or reply. In other words, I may see a couple sentences, then it's just blank, no scroll bar either. This gets annoying. Anybody else get this or know how to overcome this?

Well, there is no such thing as an AOL type account in Mail. Such an account must be set up as either POP or IMAP. Nevertheless, knowing that the ISP for one of the accounts is AOL is useful because it seems that other people also have this problem with AOL -- see Chuck Coulson's and smackwell's posts in this thread.
I don't think I'll be able to help you with the AOL account other than telling you to try rebuilding the mailbox -- select the mailbox and choose Rebuild from the Mailbox menu. Have you tried that?
The problem shouldn't happen with the POP account, however. Do you experience the same problem with it as well?

Output Does Not MATCH Word Document

Everything is fine till it reaches page 76 (of my 388 page document) and the phrase: District of Columbia.
The original document does not wrap District of Columbia, but the PDF file does.
I am using the PDF printer.
The problem is that District of Columbia is a bookmark linked to the table of contents. I see that during creation of the PDF file, Word goes into a mode that shows hidden text in bookmarks, etc. This makes the phase District of Columbia even longer than it normally is.
A work around I am considering is choosing an oversized page for printing, but the names are criptic and I'll have to look up each to find out which would work. I'm very stuck. I have three other programs that can make a PDF out of the document in just minutes, but the links/bookmarks don't work at all.
Creation using Acrobat (v XI) takes six hours. There are that many bookmarks in the document.
Any suggestions?

My guess is that you are looking at the DOC file with a laser printer or any other printer attached in the print menu. WORD reflows documents to be consistent with the attached printer. You are probably lucky that you made it through 75 pages before there was a problem. The 6 hours is also unreasonably long for the processing of 388 pages, unless everyone might have been a graphic. But even then, that is a huge amount of time.
You are probably using PDF Maker (create PDF menu), but you should still attach the Adobe PDF printer and go through the document before printing or using PDF Maker. Also, go through the preferences in the create PDF menu to select only those things needed. Tags are good for recreating the DOC file (but it is better to not get rid of the DOC file in the first place). The other use for tags is accessibility -- that is often needed, but you might want to try turning it off to see the results.
So, bottom line is to attach the Adobe PDF printer in the print menu and then go through the DOC file to check for the format you are concerned about and see if that duplicates what you are currently getting on p. 76. If it is the same, then you are seeing a standard process by WORD.

Mail does not allow signed message with .Mac certificate

Hi all,
until a few weeks ago, I was able to send signed or encrypted message with my .Mac account and .Mac certificate. Both of them are still valid, and I can still read all messages I sent as encrypted and/or signed, however, Mail does not show the two buttons to crypt and/or sign emails. The certficate seems to work to encrypt iChat dialogs as well.
I repaired my Keychain, looked at how certficates were configured, everything seems normal to me.
Any clue ??

Well, it seems that we've come across something finally.
In comparing notes, my friend (who is currently able to sign and encrypt messages) and I were comparing notes on our respective certificates. In doing so, he pointed out that he'd noticed a difference in the PURPOSE of my cert versus his cert.
His cert shows the following purposes:
1 - Client Authentication
2 - Email Protection
3 - Apple .Mac Identity
4 - Apple iChat Signing
5 - Apple iChat Encryption
Whereas mine only shows these purposes:
1 - Client Authentication
2 - Apple iChat Signing
3 - Apple iChat Encryption
Another thing I noticed while comparing his cert to mine after he pointed this out...his cert is due to expire at the end of October. Mine, on the other hand, was created this past Friday.
Now, from what I understand, these certs expire one year from date of issue, unless they are revoked earlier. So, I suppose the big question to everyone else out there that is having trouble with using their .Mac issued certificates is "When did yours get renewed?".
I'm suspecting at this point that somewhere around the end of June the certificates issued by Apple for iChat signing suddenly stopped having the "Purpose" of mail protection. It would also seem that they suddenly stopped having the purpose of .Mac Identity.
Now I'm curious why Apple would do this, make it actually relatively easy to create a cert that could be used for iChat and Mail encryption, then suddenly take it away. Is this actually what has happened here?
I'd be really interested in seeing what the renewal dates are and the corresponding "Purposes" are for many of the folks that are reporting trouble with this very issue.
If you are one of those people who had mail encryption working using your .mac certificate, and it suddenly stopped working...feel free to post your cert information here.
To get the ball rolling, here's the information from mine...
Issued By:
- Apple .Mac Certificate Authority
Expires:
- September 14, 2007
Purposes:
- Client Authentication
- Apple iChat Signing
- Apple iChat Encryption

HT1338 Mail does not open after software update?

My MacBook just updated with OSX 10.6.8 buildK549. Now my Mail does not open. I get a message that the mail version 4.5 1084/1065 is not compatible with the OSX. There was a new mail icon in the apps file but it did not open. Any suggestions?
How do I reinsatll Mail?
Thanks

It's giving you that message because the update changed Mail from version 4.5 to 4.6 and it's seeing the 4.5. The part of the update that was meant for Mail failed because it couldn't find Mail where it was looking for it.

Package javax.mail does not exist (Still having trouble)

Good Morning
I know that there are several posts regarding issues with javamail. I have viewed them for the past hour. While several of them address my issue I have been unable to locate a solution.
Bare with me please, I am making this post very thorough. The other threads I have read are frusterating because the problems people tend to post are not clear.
I am trying to run "msgsend" which is a provided demo of javamail-1.4 using command prompt (start - run - cmd) with the javac command.

27 errors
Here are the methods I have tried...
1. Make sure you have most current version of Java
2. Reinstall Java
3. Attempt to compile in an IDE (Attempted in Eclipse 3.2)
4. Set class path
Some sources suggest "CLASSPATH" some suggest "CLASS PATH" as the variable name. I have tried both.
Below is what the classpath looks like in bold.
Variable Name: CLASS PATH
Variable value: c:\download\javamail-1.4\mail.jar;C:\download\jaf-1.1\activation.jar;.
I have double checked all folder names and copy pasted all entries to eliminate typos. Javamail-1.4 and jaf-1.1 are both located in c:\download which is the same location Class Path points to.
Thank you very much for your input and effort. I can imagine how frusterating it is responding to 20million javamail posts :) (that may be a bit of an overstatement!)
Thank you again!

Yes - I have read that part of the README and did exactly as it has said in a previous attempt. I should have mentioned that here I'm sorry :)
I moved the .jar files into the download folder and set the classpath exactly as the readme shows.
When I do that the msgsend.java compiles correctly but it still does not run.
Below is what happens.
C:\download\javamail-1.4\demo>set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;c:\download\javamail-1.4
\mail.jar;%CLASSPATH%;c:\download\jaf-1.1\activation.jar.
C:\download\javamail-1.4\demo>javac msgsend.java
C:\download\javamail-1.4\demo>java msgsend.java
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: msgsend/java
C:\download\javamail-1.4\demo>
I have tried fixing this error as well via forums and FAQs but it seems to be the most generic error.
One suggestion was to clear your classpath. I tried this with a test hello world program which was giving the same error - "NoClassDefFoundError". By clearing the classpath I was able to get the hello world program to run without this error. But I can't just clear the classpath in this instance because it needs to point to mail.jar and activation.jar for the program to compile.
Thanks again for all of your efforts. You are more appreciated than you know.

Mail does not send email

My problem is simply that Mail does not send email.
I have just migrated from iMac G5 to iMac Intel by using Migration Assistant. Everything else works just fine and I can receive email. However, if I try to reply, forward or send a new email message, Mail just does not do anything - no error message, nothing.
The fixes I have tried so far are removing the Mail plist file, repairing disk permissions and mailboxes. Of course, I have checked the account settings, especially outgoing server settings. I also reinstalled Mail application with Pacifist. None of this has solved the problem. I have tried sending email with Thunderbird and it works with no problems.
Does anybody have any suggestions how to fix this issue?
The OS is 10.4.8, Mail Version 2.0.6 (749.2/752.3), all the suggested software updates done.
iMac Core Duo 20" 2GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Reinstalling Mail is rarely necessary or appropriate to solve a problem. It certainly cannot fix anything that could be wrong within your home folder or at the server or with the network, and may even introduce new issues if not done properly. Moreover, in Mac OS X 10.4 you don’t need Pacifist to reinstall Mail, you could also do it as described in the following article:
Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4
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, if the version of the system software on your install disks is earlier than what you’re using now (and only in that case), then you must also reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, to bring Mail back in sync with the rest of the system:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
The above won’t solve the problem. It’s just to ensure that you’ve properly reinstalled Mail, which you shouldn’t have done, and which apparently you didn’t do properly -- the version of Mail on your system should be 2.1.1, not 2.0.6.
The original problem could be caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services -- the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.

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".

Installed OS X 10.5.6 AND NOW MAIL DOES NOT WORK

Installed the newest operating system and Mail does not send or receive messages from the .mac/mobile me account. In fact there are no old messages in any of the folders (inbox,sent,junk,drafts, or trash). New messages can be read and sent online but nothing through Mail.
I have deleted the account and added it new again in preferences. I have deleted Mail and reinstalled it. I have made sure the account is "Online" and still nothing. Activity shows no progress and Connection doctor says I am connected to both incoming and outgoing mail servers. Help?!!

I am not sure what your attempts to fix this may have created, but the original issue may be what is discussed in:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
In addition to the article cited, if you ran 10.3 or earlier prior to upgrading to Tiger, once-upon-a-time, you might also need to remove two files with MessageSorting in their names.
More info, please. Your issue may not be what is targeted by the article, particularly if you could see any messages in any mailbox?

Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

Sent mail does not appear in sent mailbox after sending

From reports on this site, Yahoo mail doesn't work reliably with Mail. The following steps may help.
Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Stationary credated in Mail does not appear properly when viewed in Outlook, is there around this? Or, can I export (as a PDF) the email drafted in Mail with stationary that does not have the meail info on top of the page . Thanks so much for your help.

No real solution to problem 1, stationary tends to look different depending on the client, as for 2 Mail does not export to pdf but can print to pdf, however you still get the mail headers.
