Mail inbox not updating
Since upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.1 I noticed that my Mail.app inbox doesn't update to show its current contents when Mail sends and receives new messages. Synchronizing the account also doesn't do anything. I have to rebuild the mailbox for it to display the correct messages. (I can verify what's in the inbox by logging into my webmail client.)
Has anyone else encountered this? Any ideas?
Bump. Still happening. Any ideas on this one?

My mail will not update and stay current. Its always searching but doesn't do anthing. Any suggestions for ipad3?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) -
My mail is not updating like on my iOS device
My mail is not updating like how it is constantly doing on my iphone
You have to open Mail. The reason is unknown now, but Apple can add it in an update soon

I have gmail set as my mail preference in mail and it's not updating the inbox. I'm wondering if and how I can reset the gmail account. Can someone also tell me if what's the purpose of recovery folder. It is full of the same message over and over.
ThanksIf you mean you want to rebuild your mailbox, that's at the bottom of the Mailbox menu. If you mean you want to delete and reconfigure your Gmail account, that's in Mail>Preferences>Accounts. As for your Recovery folder, I've never seen that on my Mail, but it sounds like your Mail tried to salvage a corrupted message.

Outlook inbox not updating when sorted by categories
We currently have an issue updating outlook inbox, (2010, 2013) using office 365
when using sort by categories, the inbox doesnt update.
i see there are new mails coming in seeing the item count increase, but the mail is not showing.
when i collaps a categorie the new mail is found.
the problem does not occur when using sort by date.Exact same problem here.
Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 3 RU4 (Build 14.03.0174.001).
Clients: Outlook 2010, XenApp farm.
Is there something else than the workaround? It is bother a lot of users .
Kr and thx for responding

I've update my mac to 10.8.3, but the exchange 2007 mail does not correctly update. I have to close mail and restart it, then the emails wil update.
Does anyone have this problem as well?Bump.
Same continuing problem.
The simplest solution is to delete the mailbox and reinstall.
Not ideal.
It will be correct in knowing which emails are read or not, but it just doesn't remove emails on the N8 that have been deleted on the web page on the laptop. -
It seems that the Yahoo Mail Inbox has stopped fetching any messages (old or new). It will get all email from other Yahoo Mail folders... just not the inbox. I want to say it's been a problem for the last 2-3 days. The status message on the iPhone just says "Checking for Mail" and hangs.
Anyone else having this same problem?
Thanks.For better or for worse, this solution below works, found at iLounge. I'd love to know what constitutes a "corrupt email" (that is fine by PC/browser but the iPhone can't handle).

I called an Apple tech and have a solution for the problem stated by the OP and myself:
1) Login your Yahoo account from your computer
2) Create a folder named InboxTest and move every email sitting in your Inbox into this new folder.
3) Compose a new email from Yahoo and send it to yourself (the Yahoo account that isn't working)
4) Close your browser, do not check/read your Yahoo account from your computer
5) Go to your iPhone > Mail > Yahoo > Inbox and tap the refresh button
5a) There is a possibility that the email you sent yourself got diverted to your Bulk/Junk folder automatically so if you don't see anything check that folder
5b) You may need to reset your iPhone (hold home + sleep button)
After you restart your iPhone, your InboxTest folder should show up, and your Inbox should be downloading new emails correctly. If your Inbox starts working again, do not open the InboxTest folder from your iPhone -- you will need to login from your computer again and go through the various emails in the InboxTest folder, one of them is corrupt or caused the issue to begin with... so delete any that you don't need
I hope this helps, it's the procedure as I could remember it when I was talking to the Apple tech... it may not be step by step but I think it will work -- if not just call Apple.

Thanks for all your help it's just unfortunate where that linebreak fell in the tutorial!
missing space:
... --mandir=/usr/share/man--sysconfdir=/private/etc/spam/clamav/new ...
should be:

Freshclam.log is now showing the correct version but clamav.log and amavis.log still haven't changed.
You mentioned something about amavisd.conf is this why they logs are not updating and if so how do amavisd to log in the right place?
Thanks,

IPhone Mail inbox not syncing with Mac inbox
Greetings
Since upgrading my MBP recently, mail in my iPhone Mail inbox/sent items has not been syncing fully with my Mac Mail inbox/sent items.
Messages which are moved to folders stored On My Mac remain in my iPhone inbox.
Messages which are moved to folders stored in iCloud are removed from my iPhone in inbox and are visible as they should be in the iCloud folders on my iPhone.
I use both an iCloud email account as well as an account through my domain host. I do not use Gmail or an Exchange account, and tis problem dud not occur with my old MBP.
Any advice most gratefully received.
Sashina.Hi KiltedTIm
Hmmm. I've changed my Mac, iPhone and iPad all from POP to IMAP. On my Mac there are only two items in the inbox in question, but on both mobile devices are every bit of mail from that account (not in filed iCloud folders) going back to 17 April. I've restarted both devices but everything is still in the inbox.
Any further ideas?
Thanks!

I just updated my Hotmail account to the new Microsoft outlook but now looks like my Mac's application on my Mac will not update, and then it keeps asking me for my password than I type it in correctly and it says it's incorrect please try again when I go on the Internet it lets me in me and wants happening
are the ports and encryption type set acording to the mail provider?
if no test if it works with wifi because if it does then your carrier are blocking the ports required for receiving imap mail from the mail provider in question -

As per SAP standard it must update.
In SRM 5.0 it is working.
if not update in your version create OSS message against SAP.

Apple Mail is not updating mail automatically on my Imac.
Before I updated to Maverick, Mail would update every time I woke it up by touching the mouse or any key. Now since updating, I must click on the envelope button to get my new mail. Why?
Also just recently my Magic Mouse won't scroll on the Mail page. I have to use Arrow Keys to go from one email to the next week. It works properly on all other areas.
Help!yes it is. I just rebooted and that fixed the mouse issue. I will see what happens with mail. It updates as long as I am on the computer it is just when it comes out of sleep mode.

Yahoo mail inbox not visible on mail
Hi all,
not sure what happened between Monday afternoon and today, but all of a sudden my yahoo mail's inbox is no longer visible. It shows 0 messages. I seem to have access to any other folders for the mailbox, but not the inbox. This is also occurring on my iPad and iPhone. Has anyone seen this before? I updated to Yosemite about 2 weeks ago. Not sure if it has anything to do with that, since it only happened now. I also cant seem to find any issues with Yahoo, and I am able to log into yahoo mail directly and I can see all the new emails and my entire inbox. I have removed and reinstalled the mailbox several times, and also tried to update the settings, but nothing. If anyone has any ideas, that would be great.

When I set up mail on my new MacBook, all my email accounts had mail in the inbox. I've since logged into each account on the Internet to move or delete mail and my inboxes are clean. The mail app on the MacBook still shows the moved/deleted mail as unread messages in the inbox. How do i get the app to update so that all the moved/deleted mail no longer appears in the inbox?
I'm having exactly the same problem: read/unread flagging inconsistencies via IMAP
OS: 10.6.8
mail: 4.5
ipad2
I've trawled through loads of forums looking for an answer to this and I've yet to see a solution. Our hosting people have suggesting switching to Gmail or some other mail client. Massively irritating. All our hardware is mac and IMAP is supposedly the way forward for integrated mail across multiple machines. But it's just not working properly.
help!
