Mail - Get Mail fails...wassup wit dat?

I'm able to send emails using Mail, but not get them from my Yahoo account. It worked once, about a month ago, but I haven't been able to get it ever since. I feel like I've been through the entire "Help" section of Mail and I still can't import my emails. I usually get the error message:
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server “pop.mail.yahoo.com” on port 587 timed out.
Any help that anyone can lend would be terrific. Thanks

I tried server 110, 995, 587, and 25 for outgoing mail
but none of those have worked.
You indicated you can send mail with your Yahoo account with the Yahoo SMTP server so why are you changing the Port used for the outgoing or SMTP server to resolve a receiving mail problem?
As previously provided, the standard incoming mail server port used for a POP type account is 110.
Port 25 and 587 are used for an outgoing or SMTP server.
Create or utilize user created "On My Mac" mailboxes to transfer existing messages from the account's inbox and Sent mailbox and then delete and re-create the account in Mail.
All account mailboxes are deleted when deleting an account in Mail so if you want to save all existing messages in the account's Inbox and Sent mailbox, you need to transfer the messages to user created mailboxes before deleting and re-creating the account.

  • Get-mailboxexportrequest failed - contentfilter by date

    Hi,
    I post this in total desperation. I've spent most of today testing different options.
    All I want to do is export a mailbox folder, between 2 dates. Seems simple.
    New-MailboxExportRequest -ContentFilter {(Received -gt '08/26/214 00:00') -and (Received -lt '08/28/2014 23:59')} -Mailbox "hello" -IncludeFolders "AutoResponse" -FilePath \\servername\Email\Folder.pst
    If I run the command without the content filter it works, soon as I add it, it fails "could not be converted to type System.DateTime."
    Ive searched the forums/blogs etc all agree that there is an issue but none have sorted it for me.
    Some say that it was resolved in SP2, but I am on SP3 rollup6....
    Any ideas would be great as I'm lost.
    thanks

    [PS] C:\temp>New-MailboxExportRequest -ContentFilter {(Received -gt (Get-Date '08/26/214 00:00')) } -Mailbox "hello" -IncludeFolders "AutoResponse" -FilePath \\servername\Email\Folder.pst

  • I can no longer get my calendar to send a reminder e-mail for on a date in the future....alerts no problem

    I can no longer get my calendar to send a reminder e-mail for on a date in the future....alerts no problem

    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Problem Description
    After enabling cellular data, i am receiving mails even if we disable "use cellular data for mail", due to this data usage usage use is more, if we have fix please let me know.
    Steps:

    3. check whether mail is received or not
    tried multiple times and i am getting more billing amount because of data usage

    Mail isn't the only app using data. Turning it off there has no effect whatsoever on whether the rest of iOS or other apps you have installed. In fact most apps use data these days, at a minimum for Notifications and often for gameplay and other features.

  • Mail Fails To Connect In My Office Network, Works on Reboot

    This is baffling me and my network admin:
    Mail fails to connect to any of my accounts at work. But it recovers if I reboot my machine.
    Here is what happens:
    - Mail works just fine at home. Connects to gmail, iCloud, and a 3rd party email account no problems.
    - I get to the office
    - I log in to the office WiFi with my password - for this I have to open a browser window, and enter my credentials.
    (I kind of assume that this is the problem ^^)
    - All my internet connections work fine, I can use the browser to access Gmail etc
    - Mail refuses to connect to any of my email servers, and all accounts go offline
    - Connection Doctor says "Mail can connect to the internet" but all individual connections are red, not reachable. I checked "detail" too - its empty.
    Then I reboot my Mac, and after that everything's happy. Mail connects to my accounts normally, and Connection Doctor marks all as green.
    Since it works on reboot, we can rule out network problems like closed ports etc. So the only thing I can think of is that Mail initially tries to connect as soon as I am on WiFi, then hangs (because I am not logged in yet), and somehow this hang is of a kind that does not recover (I've left it on for hours at a time, no difference, it never recovers).
    Anyone have any ideas about this? Is there some way I can restart networking daemons to kill the hung connections. Or any other way I can diagnose this?

    A captive portal, which is what you have, can work in any of at least three ways: by HTTP redirection, IP redirection, or DNS poisoning. I'm guessing that yours is the last type. In that case, a TTL of zero should be used. If the TTL is non-zero, then Internet applications may not work until the DNS cache is flushed. That happens when you reboot.
    You should discuss the possibility with your network admin. If the network configuration isn't going to be changed, you may be able to avoid the need to reboot by flushing the DNS cache manually, as described in the article linked below:
    OS X: How to reset the DNS cache

  • Logout has timed out because the application Mail failed to quit.

    Hello world... (Mac world that is)
    The message says more "Logout has timed out because the application Mail failed to quit. To try again, quit Mail and choose Log Out from the Apple menu."
    I tried everything. Still does not let me shut down.
    Other programs will not shut down at this time, including Finder. I also know that the Time Machine icon has been spinning for over an hour. So I imagine we are in a loop of sorts.
    Unfortunately, I have had similar troubles before that I did not record. So I figure I start now and see if somebody out there can help me.
    Peace!
    Chopo

    I'm having the same problem (can't logout, shut down or restart), but the referenced solution doesn't seem to apply. I do not get a "Cannot connect to server" message, I just get a "Logout has timed out" message. It seemed to happen after an automatic software update that was supposed to involve a restart, but it hasn't been able to restart since.
    Can you please clarify, what is meant by "delete the AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary, which is located under the root node" (with reference to file loginwindow.plist)?
    This is what the loginwindow.plist file looks like now:
    bplist00Ñ!AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary¢ÒTPathTHide-/Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HPEventHandler.app/Ò _N/Library/Application Support/Hewlett-Packard/Software Update/HP Scheduler.app//27
    I was at the genius bar earlier, and they said I need to 'archive and install' in order to 'reset the OS'... but there's got to be a better answer than that, no? Perhaps this plist thing? I'm surprised that even powering off the imac doesn't reset anything... it just comes back the way it was. I'm supposed to bring the 25 inch imac in to the mac store for surgery (archive and install), but seeing several similar cases on this discussion forum, without archive and install identified as the clear solution, I'm in search of a second opinion... or any suggestion for how to simply make this work the way it was before? Is it 10.5.4 that is causing this? Should I go back to 10.5.3?
    Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

  • Mail fails to import messages after 10.8.5 update

    After the update Mail fails to import my messages and then quits.
    First screen says: Welcome to Mail. To use the new features your existing Mail messages need to be imported....
    Then when I click continue it says: The import failed. An error occurred during the import. Make sure you have available space in your home folder and try again.
    I run mail from inside the container (MacOS folder) and here's what it reads:
    Last login: Mon Oct 21 22:39:50 on ttys001

    I have created another standard user and inside this new account Mail will work perfectly.
    Nothing worked so far. Cherry on the cake : I have a message saying I have a recall on my MBAir SSD drive.
    Please advise on how to solve this issue !
    Cheers,
    ZChef

    Intermediate answer: The app launched correctly and the import process has started.
    It is taking ages though. Over 3 hours for around 30K messages.
    The message count sometimes gets stuck for 20-30 minutes or so and then starts counting again...
    There are ~5K messages left to be imported. I'll let you know if it goes ok.
    Stay tuned for the next and hopefully last episode.

  • SCOM SQL Query to find Mail Latency (Send/ Receive) Data.

    Hi,
    I unable to find Mail Latency (Send/ Receive) Data in SCOM 2012 SQL Query.
    need your help to find SQL query that fetches below details
    1. Average Time for Accessing Mailbox.

    Regards,
    Vinoth Kumar.

    Hi Vinoth
    There are no specific tables storing the mailbox related data.
    To find information about Exchange in SCOM you need the Exchange management pack for the version of Exchange you are running, as well as monitoring the Exchange servers.
    When that has been done you can find reports and performance views for Exchange.
    I am unsure if you can find this specific information for Exchange in SCOM, i would look into the management pack. If you cannot find the information, i suggest you consult your Exchange administrator to get this information.

  • Good idea? . . . Moving the Apple Mail folder to your data volume

    Read the below quote from Mac Performance Guide. Is it a good idea? I know a bit of DOS, so I am used to command line commands but even after after Lloyd Chambers explanation, still not sure what is going to happen?
    ln -s /Volumes/Master/Mail Library/Mail
    The reason I want to move my Mail folder out of the home directory is because I plan to have a SSD as my boot drive and the home directory is on the boot drive, correct?
    "Moving the Apple Mail folder to your data volume
    This trick lets you move your Mail folder out of your home directory onto your data volume. I’ve used this technique for years so that I can forget about having to back up my home directory (default location for Apple Mail) and simply back up my one data volume: Master. The same trick can be used for any similarly irritating program that insists on storing its data in your home directory, rather than giving you a choice (a few programs are too brain-dead for this to work). Programs like iTunes let you choose where to put your music; use that option.
    Your Apple Mail folder is in the Library folder of your home directory.
    The trick requires starting Terminal. If that makes you uncomfortable, stop here! You are going to make a symbolic link.
    0. Quit Apple Mail, and make a backup of your mail folder.
    1. Copy the Mail folder to the top level of your data drive (or elsewhere, then modify step 3 appropriately).
    2. Rename the original mail folder to Mail.old as an additional backup.
    3. Start a Terminal window and type:
    ln -s /Volumes/Master/Mail Library/Mail
    This makes a symbolic link to the folder Mail on the volume Master (type the name of your volume, and use quotes around it if the volume name contains a space character). The resulting file Library/Mail is a tiny file that says “look over there on /Volumes/Master/Mail instead”.
    From here on out Apple Mail won’t know the difference! Launch Apple Mail and verify that it worked. If you encounter problems, simply copy your backup back into place."

    I just put the entire /Users/myaccount on another drive.
    Unlock Account control panel - advanced options -
    /Volumes/volname/Users/myaccount
    Move the whole enchilada instead of just mail. Definitely want to get Safari or web browsers cache which does a lot of I/O also. maybe put /Users on 2nd SSD or 10K VelociRaptor. Or just use your 640GB drive for /Users

  • Database Mail Fails For SQL Server Agent Jobs / Maintenace plans - Why ?

    Database Mail Fails For SQL Server Agent Jobs / Maintenace plans - Why ?
    This has been a very common question I have seen relatedt to Database mail and I thought will post here so if you run into this issue, it could be due to one of the following and also have mentioned below how to get around them. Bottom line is datbase mail works fine with SQL Agent jobs and maintenace plans in SP1 on all platforms.
    1. If you see this on 64 bit platform and on RTM build, this is a bug that is addressed in SP1.
    2. If you see the below error message, it is known issue and this is because of design that requires SQL Agent to restart, if SQL Agent was started before enabling databasemail and setting a new profile. We are evaluating to change this design of not requiring to restart agent for our future release.
    Re: 264] An attempt was made to send an email when no email session has been established
    This problem will go away after restarting SQL Server Agent in this case. Thanks,
    Gops Dwarak, MSFT

    This may be related to the fact that DBMail, by default, shuts itself down after 10 minutes of inactivty.  If the mail service isn't running, you won't be able to queue up any mail messages.
    There may be a built-in mechanism for addressing this problem, but I found that I can detect this situation and start the mail listener before sending db mail.  I use the following in stored procs that need to send email.
    You could increase the inactivity period for db mail shutdown from 600 seconds to some larger value.  It might not make sense to do so, since shutting it down releases its resources back to teh system; if your SQL server only sneds mail infrequently, it might be better to start the mail listener on demand.  Someone with more experience than I might want to add their two cents' worth.  :-)
    /* Check the mail engine. Start the service if is is stopped         */
    /* -- the DB Mail engine shuts down after 10 minutes (of inactivity) */
    /* -- this setting can be changed, but we probably don't need to.    */
    DECLARE @rc INT
    IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM msdb.sys.service_queues
                   WHERE name = N'ExternalMailQueue' AND is_receive_enabled = 1)
        EXEC @rc = msdb.dbo.sysmail_start_sp
