Mail has been "crazy"

My mail has been acting very strange. All my mail appeared in my junk mail folder, all marked as junk. All the sent mail was marked as junk, and old mail I had deleted, and emptied from trash showed up in my inbox. I went to the genius bar, and we deleted all the junk mail, but by the time I got home, it had all returned. I am occasionally receiving mail, which I have sent to others, in my inbox, addressed to me, from me. And I still have an occasional sent email going into drafts. I marked the mail in the junk folder, and the sent folder, as not junk, put the emails where they belong, and so far , that issue seems to be OK. I then reset my junk filter. I'm not complaining at all, but I have not gotten one junk mail since last Friday, that's what prompted me to check my junk folder on Sunday, and discovered what had happened. I was getting swamped with spam until then. Now no junk at all. I am just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything like this, or if anyone might have an answer as to what caused this to happen. Thanks for any help or input that might come my way! CGM

Since I had no answer here, I took my issue to the Apple Store Genius Bar, and problems were solved there.

ICloud Mail has been down (Mac, iOS, online) since last night. Anyone else?

Mail has been down completely since last night. Not able to access from Air, iPhone, iPad, or via Safari. System Status reports no problems. Other iCloud tools (Calendar, Contacts) seem fine.
Anyone else having this problem?

I've noticed this as well since about 10:30 EST. I used to have emails forwarding from another address and when I switched that off the other address is receiving emails instantly so it's definitely a problem on Apple's end. It's good to see that at least one other person is reporting the problem here, but it would be even better if Apple would update the status page. I can be very patient if I know it's a known issue for them, but hate seeing that all is up and running normally from their point of view when it isn't.

Ok; I'm not sure what you're doing. 36 hours is rather long. Seems like a new migration. Not what I intended.
Here's what I intended: from the newly-migrated and apparently-corrupt environment, create a new user, not related to any existing user, nor any migration-created user, or any other user for that matter. That is, use  > System Preferences > Users and Groups, authenticate yourself by clicking on the padlock, and then click the + and create a wholly new user. Then log in under that user and establish the mail access.
36 hours? I'm wondering if there's an error or an exceedingly slow network here? Or a really, really slow disk? Or a sick backup? (WiFi isn't the path I'd usually choose, either.)
Failing the attempted second migration, I'd try a different tactic. Does your existing (old) system work? If so, I'd bypass the backup and connect an external (scratch) USB disk drive to the (old) sstem and then boot and use Disk Utility booted from the installer DVD disk or boot and use Disk Utility from the recovery partition or booted from a recovery partition created on some other external storage (details here vary by the OS X version and what hardware you have), and perform a full-disk backup of your original internal disk to (scratch) external storage. (Make sure you get the source and target disks chosen correctly here; copying the wrong way — from the scratch disk to your existing disk — will clobber your data!) In esssence, this will clone your existing boot disk. Then dismount the (formerly-scratch) external disk, transfer it over to the new system, and use it as the source of the migration, by performing a fresh OS X installation on the new system.
Target Disk Mode is also sometimes an option for accessing the disk for a migration, but that requires the right cable, and requires systems that have the same external connection; newer MacBook Pro systems use Thunderbolt for this, and older systems tend to use FireWire. And I'm guessing you don't have compatible hardware.
The details here can and do vary by your OS X versions and your particular Mac systems — if you'll identify the specific models and hardware, somebody might be able to better tailor the above (fairly generic) sequence to your particular configuration.

My Mail has been very sluggish-any solutions?

My Mail has been sluggish - with delays in typed message appearing slower than typed, delays in sending messages, delays in opening messages. Any solutions for this problem?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.mail/Cache.db
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, 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). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Hi Apple! My iphone 4g has restored and I can't retrieve the account. I have tried the password renewal that will be send on my mail but unfortunately my mail has been deactivated also.what is your solution for this kind of cases? This is so unfair.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466, and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

AMEX says mail has been returned as undeliverable

Ironically, I do get AMEX email and I also received the message that tells me mail has been returned undeliverable.
Called AMEX which said Verizon may have a block on AMEX addresses, contact Verizon.
I'm confused.

I've seen similar from amex. Probably they have timeouts and retries set low. Obviously some comes through.

Mail has been updated?

When I go to get mail a message saying "Mail has been updated. Do you want the new version to access the same keycain items (such as passwords) as the previous version".
I haven't updated my mail apllication (Mail 2.1) and have read that I may have a virus. Do I need to buy virus protection and run a scan or do I allow the access to the keychain.
Thanks Jimmy
imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

10.4.7 included a mail upgrade and presents this message the first time mail is run.
There are still no viruses in the wild for OSX.
There is no need to purchase any security software. Currently this type of software will create more problems on your Mac than any known malware.

Mail App / How do I find a file in wich a mail has been moved ?

Hi everybody !
Like a lot of apple users, I have created many mailboxes "on my mac" on the left menu... this allows me to move every mail in a dedicated box for my work.. Every project has its own mailbox, and its sub-mailboxes, in order to class each mail in a logical way.
I have 100 000 mails archived, in about 5 000 different files. When I need to find an email about an old project, I write a few keywords in the search bar, and I find it... In the last OS X versions, by showing the code of the mail, I could make appear the file in which the mail had been moved. By right-clicking on it, the file appeared on the left menu of the application, and I could then access to all the emails stored in the same file.
Now, in Yosemite, it is not possible to right click on a file in order to locate it !! That's a very big problem for me... because I need to access to the fill of the discussion, and be able to read all the informations stored in this file..
Could anybody help me ? Is there a way to find this mysterious file ?
Mr Apple, why did you change this very useful function ???
Many thanks for your help...

Open a Finder Window.
In the Finder Window, search for the file you want, select "file name" or "content", make sure "This Mac" is selected.
Click the Time Machine icon, in the dock, it will open on "Today".
Click on the back arrow to go back in time.
If the file was backed up, TM will go back and find it.

How to get notification that a mail has been read

Is there any way to use Java mail to tell if a mail that you sent has been read?

I think you are asking too much....
ok fine i will put that in a different way...see for sending mails you are using JavaMail right.... and u might be sending mails to other mail servers say yahoo.com or hotmail.com...or anithing else... so when the person at the other end reads the mail...say yahoo.com... yahoo server knows that the mail is read... so it is impossible to reply back automatically to the person who sent the mail...
yeah it is very much possible if this is with in the server...say withing your organisation like <[email protected]>...so that u are implementing both the parts i mean reading mails and writing mails... so the control is in your hand.
I hope I am very clear...
all da best

Knowing when outgoing mail has been read

is there a way to automate Mail so that you know when a "sent" email has been opened by the recipient?

No, and there is really no way of knowing, and many people (me too!) would consider that it would be an invasion of privacy if it was available. If the recipient's client supports it, and the recipient has not turned it off, you may be able to get a delivery receipt - see this thread yesterday.
