Mail message not forwarded from Comcast to Mail

Every day I receive an email from the Chicago Tribune that contains a link to that day's e-edition. The email resides in my comcast.net inbox, not the spam box. All of my incoming emails (except the ones in the spam box) get forwarded to my Mac OS Mail inbox - no problems whatsoever - except this particular daily email. It sits there at comcast.net and is available and it works just fine. The problem is that it doesn't get forwarded by comcast.net to my Mac OS Mail inbox, as it should. Of course, Comcast hasn't a clue and "blames" the problem on the Mac OS/ Mail application. Any ideas why I have this problem?

Thank you for your help, that did the trick. My mail box was too large, once I emptied my trash the problem has not repeated itself. I thought I had my trash set to empty upon quiting. My Mail box was 1.6 gigs and I was trying to keep it clean by throwing old mail and junk mail away, but it built up and I did not realize it.

Message "not downloaded from server. You need to take this account online

After upgrading to 10.4.9, when I click on any of the old emails in my inbox I get the message "this message not downloaded from server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
I can still read all email in any other mailbox.
I can read all email received after upgrading.
I appreciate any help.

You upgraded to 10.4.9 from what?
If you upgraded from Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier, the problem is that the conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x is broken. Take a look at the following thread to better understand the problem:
Help! "You need to take this account online in order to download it."
More specifically, if this is a POP account, the following procedure should allow you to fix the Inbox problem. A similar procedure should allow you to fix other mailboxes that might also be affected:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to fix the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
3. Create a new folder on the Desktop and name it however you wish (e.g. Inbox Old). It doesn’t need to have an .mbox extension.
4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/.
5. Move the files mbox and Incoming_Mail out of INBOX.mbox, into the Inbox Old folder just created on the Desktop. These files contain all the messages that were in the mailbox before the upgrade to Tiger, and maybe even some messages that had been deleted. mbox is the most important. Incoming_Mail may or may not be present.
6. Move any strangely-named Messages-T0x... folders to the Desktop (not into the Inbox Old folder). These folders are to be deleted after fixing the problem. They are temporary folders created during an import or an indexing process, and Mail should have deleted them when done. Their presence is a clear indication that something didn’t work as expected. If you’ve been using Mail after the conversion and have already tried to fix the problem by rebuilding the mailbox or something like that, they might contain messages that are neither in Messages proper nor in the mbox file, so keep them around until the problem is fixed.
7. Move everything else within INBOX.mbox, except the Messages folder, to the Trash.
The result of the above should be that INBOX.mbox contains the proper Messages folder only, and the Inbox Old folder on the Desktop contains the mbox and Incoming_Mail (if it exists) files only. Now, proceed as follows:
8. Open Mail.
9. The account’s Inbox should properly display in Mail as many messages as *.emlx files are in ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/INBOX.mbox/Messages/. If that’s not the case, select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.
10. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Other as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the Inbox Old folder that’s on the Desktop.
As a result of doing the above, some messages may be duplicated now. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may find useful.
Do with the imported mail whatever you wish. You may move the messages anywhere you want and get rid of the imported mailboxes afterwards.
If all is well and you don’t miss anything, the files on the Desktop can be deleted, although you may want to keep them for a while, just in case.
Take a look at the following article (also referenced in the thread I mentioned at the beginning of this post) to learn what you might have done before upgrading to minimize the risk of this happening, and what you may do after fixing the problem to avoid similar issues from happening in the future. DON’T do now what the article suggests, though, as that would make things worse in the current situation:
Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty
Ask for any clarifications or if you need further assistance.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

Hello, Anita.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are wanting to restore your new iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5 backup. This sounds like the iOS version of your old iPhone 5 may be newer than what was installed on your iPhone 6. Try going through the steps in the article below.
iOS: Unable to restore from backup of a newer device
I would also check to see the backup dates in iTunes and if the backup is located on iCloud instead of iTunes.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes

FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server"

It took me 4 days to figure it out but there is a solution to the problem "the messsage has not been downloaded from server" and "the message has no content".
I do not have to set up "push" accounts from yahoo or gmail and it works with my corporate email.
Apple can reach me at <Message was edited by: Host> to discuss this issue.

I'm not a computer technician, and if you were to give me a few days looking at the problem, i'm sure I or anyone else could provide a solution. I'm not too bothered about the message appearing 50% of the time as i'm usually within easy reach of a Laptop or PC or can find another method to get access to my email.
So i'm not pi**ed off that you have found a solution. I'm just trying to obtain information for a post that says "FOUND SOLUTION TO EMAIL ISSUE - "message not downloaded from server" in the Apple HELP FORUMS...

Mail - "message not downloaded from server"

I know that the message was download from the server because it was todays mail from this first thing morning. This happens once or twice a week, I will go to view a message from a couple of hours ago and i will get this meesage.
Anyone have any Ideas??
Thanks

Email not forwarding from iCloud!

When I set my icloud email preferences to forward to another address, it is multiplying the messages 6x in my icloud inbox, and NOT forwarding them as indicated to the new address I have set. Why is that happening, and how can I fix it?

Yes it occurs on the Webmail interface.
Yes other devices... same result
No mail rules setup.
For those following... A solution was located in a google search:
Those having this problem, please use the Finder to open Home/Library/Mail and locate the file named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3. Use Get Info to see when this file was last updated -- should be after the last time new messages were downloaded?
Quitting Mail and removing this file, and then relaunching Mail will result in a freshening of the file, if it has become corrupted, but will once more download everything still on the server. But hopefully for the last time.
Thanks BDAqua for your assistance!

Inaccurate "Message not downloaded from server" message

I recently started seeing error messages like the one below appearing in the body of my Mail messages right after reading new messages from the POP server at my work (a large hospital). I'm running OS 10.3.9 on a dual 2GHz PowerPC G5. None of the other Mac users in my group at work are getting this type of error message:
"The message from "Doe, John" <[email protected]> concerning “RE: New spheres” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
I don't believe this has anything to do with our mail server at work. My account is "on-line" when I see this message, and taking it off-line and then on-line again does not correct the problem.
When I see it, this error message appears as the only text in many or all of the e-mails in my "InBox" -- and it replaces the actual text of each message -- even in messages that were previously downloaded and read successfully. I have never seen this message appear in any other mail folders -- I have only seen it in mail messages in my InBox.
This error message is clearly not accurate because when I see it in one or more emails, I can simply quit Mail and then re-start it and then I can see all of my In-Box mail messages correctly again, (without downloading anything again from the server).
I have tried deleting the mail preference file, and I have run the utility program Yasu to try to clean things up. Nothing has worked to fix this bug.
Suggestions?
Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

This is not a bug.
All email clients have limits and the recommended mailbox size limit for Jaguar or Panther Mail is 1GB and for Tiger Mail, 2GB.
This error message indicates an "overstuffed" mailbox issue which means the account's inbox mailbox has either approached or exceeded 1GB in size or the mailbox has some corruption. An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size but is more likely to occur depending on the number and size of message attachments contained in a mailbox and especially as a mailbox approaches or exceeds 1GB in size for Jaguar or Panther Mail.
This has been eliminated with Tiger Mail since the mbox format has been improved over previous Mail.app versions but there is still a recommended mailbox size limit (2GB) with Tiger Mail.
Quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
Launch Mail and a new INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder.
This will allow the Mail.app to function properly again while working on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop to recover the existing messages.
Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select Show Package Contents.
List the package content file names and size each here.
This information is required to determine the next step to take to recover the existing messages.
For future reference, since an account's Inbox mailbox is usually the most active mailbox and more prone to minor corruption over time, it is not a good idea to use an account's Inbox mailbox as the final storage location for all received messages not deleted.
Better to utilize user created "On My Mac" location mailboxes to sort received messages by category.
Before upgrading to Tiger Mail, I didn't allow any mailbox to exceed 500MB or so in size, used the Rebuild Mailbox function on the most active mailboxes on a regular basis (once a month or so depending on activity) and I never experienced an overstuffed mailbox issue.

Messages not removed from Inbox when deleted on iphone

My company has an exchange based mail system and they provide imap access for devices like the iphone.
I set up the iphone to connect to the server and can read messages just fine. I set the Deleted items option in the Settings app for Mail to be the Deleted Items folder on the server.
When I delete the messages on the iphone this is what happens:
1) The message disappears from the Inbox on the phone.
2) The message appears in the Trash on the phone.
3) The message appears in the Deleted Items folder on the server (as viewed from my normal work computer).
4) The message stays in the Inbox folder on the server.
So, in sum, things do what they are supposed to do on the phone. On the server, I wind up with 2 copies of the same message - one in Inbox and one in Deleted Items.
I will point out that the same behavior occurs when I try to move an item from any folder to any other from the iphone. The message winds up in both the original and the target folders....
What do I need to do to set it up so that messages are removed from the originating folder on a delete or move?
Thanks

Sounds like typical POP behavior.
Is your mail account POP or IMAP?
If POP, then your mail activities are normal, that's how POP operates.
If it's IMAP, contact your server admin, as IMAP should be reflecting all activity across all devices with that specific account on it.

Message not deleting from Topic after successfully dequeue

Hi All,
Help please..
I need to design a process where message have to produce into a AQ JMS topic and later i have to consume the message from the same topic and publish to a Queue.
In order to move on this i have created a sample My_Topic1 and My_Queue1 with below syntax
Topic:-
EXEC dbms_aqadm.create_queue_table (queue_table=>'MY_Topic1', queue_payload_type=>'sys.aq$_jms_text_message', multiple_consumers=>true );
EXEC dbms_aqadm.create_queue(queue_name=>'MY_Topic1', queue_table=>'MY_Topic1');
EXEC dbms_aqadm.start_queue(queue_name=>'MY_Topic1');
Queue:-
EXEC dbms_aqadm.create_queue_table (queue_table=>'My_Queue1', queue_payload_type=>'sys.aq$_jms_text_message', multiple_consumers=>false);
EXEC dbms_aqadm.create_queue(queue_name=>'My_Queue1', queue_table=>'My_Queue1');
EXEC dbms_aqadm.start_queue(queue_name=>'My_Queue1');
Now i created Foreign server and create local and destination topic of queue.topics name and also created Data source of XAType.
Now my bpel process getting a message(which as one element of sting type) from a web service and i am producing the same message to Topic. Once the message published to topic in a separate composite my JMS Adaptor dequeue/Consume the message from the topic and subscribe it to queue.
The Above scenario working as expected but here what my observation on this
1)When i dequeue message from a topic using bpel process successfully i am able to subscribe the message to queue but the message still remain in the topic i think it suppose to get of the topic once successfully dequeued.
Even i check the subscriber topic table and one subscriber is listening to the topic.
2)If in case any error generated at the time of subscribing to the queue the message should rollback( because i am using XA Transaction) but i think it is not happening as i can see in my topic view aq$my_topic1 MGS_STATE changed to PROCESSED.
Can some one please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Tarak.
Edited by: Tarak on Sep 9, 2012 8:47 PM

The behavior should be the process consume a message from the topic and will try to do its job. If this process fail, {code]
But in this message not there in topic even it is failed in soa process.....i am very much interested how this XA is working that the reason i am trying all this.What to do with a failed/expired message is usually configurable, but doesn't make sense to place it in the same topic again... If the messages are failing too quickly better to adjust the max_retries and retry_delay...I agress in real senario we will move to error queue. But in that case also some how we need to read the message from queue and publish to the end system.
I am just trying to understand the behavior and what i came to know is after all the retire fails message not going to topictable _E. But when i pass Expire time property or time to live then it is moving to error table.What do you mean? What server was restarted, the database or the soa server? Messages that still didn't reach the max retry number will still be retried...Wheni am bouncing my managed server soa_server1 i can see the invoke activity is trying to publish the message into queue... this is happens after server restart and suppose not to happen....
But thanks alot for the inputs...
Regards,
Tarak.

How to fix message not downloaded from server

Hello everyone,
My name is Joshua Kahley, and I am an IT technician in charge of handeling email related issues in my company. We host our own web and email server and since the I-OS 7 update we have had a problem where many messages cannot be retrieved from our email server. I confirmed with my own phone that this issue did not exist prior to I-OS 7, messages that displayed fine before were no longer be readable on I-OS 7 when i upgraded.
The error message I recieve is "This message has not been downloaded from the server"
I'm not sure if this is a problem that can be solved on the phone itself as I have tried changing numerous settings. Has anything changed with the way I-OS 7 handles IMAP messages that my require us to change settings on our server? No other email provider has this issue as far as I can tell; in addition, all of our customers have the same issue (they all have their email through our servers)
If anyone has any insight into this I would greatly appriciate it.
~Joshua Kahley

No fix, but I found a work-around for a single message that iOS email refuses to download at http://www.bitcraft.com.au/iphone-mail-app-says-this-message-has-not-been-downlo aded-from-server/
that reads:
...here’s a quick fix… Forward the message. Just click Forward and it will ask you “Download rest of message first?”. Say yes and then you will see the old message quoted in the forward. Now if only Apple would make than an option without having to ‘fake’ forward it…
The above worked for me when I encountered "This message has not been downloaded from server” on my iPad 3 running iOS 7.1.1.

Hi Pravin,
Check b2b_instancemesage view for related messages and make sure that payload is coming properly.
Also make sure that you have atleast one configuration in deployed state. Also make sure that transportServlet is up and running by accessing below url -
http://localhost:port/b2b/transportServlet
Also try by using the enqueue stubs which comes as part of tutorial (Ora_Home/ip/tutorial)
How are you enquing message to this queue? Please mail the b2b log in debug mode to my id (in my profile)/post the same here.

Some messages not deleted from server after downloading

We have about 1,000 mail users, all of whom use Apple's Mail app to retrieve their mail using POP. We've seen users' mailboxes on the server where not all messages have been deleted after downloading, even though the user's app has been configured to delete messages immediately after downloading. The strange thing is, undeleted messages appear in large non-contiguous blocks of time. Like there will be 100 messages from January, then 250 from July, and so forth.
Has anyone seen this behavior? Can anyone help me a) understand why this is happening and b) how to fix it? Thanks in advance to whoever can help.

Thanks- but I don't want the messages deleted when they are deleted from my Mac, I want them deleted when I download them. However, I just found the setting so I'm fine.
Thanks, again!
set delete from server when deleted from my mac in mail preferences
And if you want you could tell us a little more - like what type of account, what settings, etc

Did you use the expunge() method on the folder, or use close(true)? Otherwise the messages marked as DELETED will not be removed yet.

Very High messages not forwarded to SAP out of the Business Hours

Dear Gurus,
I work for a SAP partner and we have the Solution Manager 7.0 + EHP1, SP stack 24, running under a Windows Server Machine with MS Sqlserver Data Base and we're facing the following problem:
In between the business hours we are able to forward messages to SAP manually, however, after the business hours, messages set as 'very high' priority aren't being forwarded automatically to SAP.
We have already triple checked the configs listed on the SAP Notes 1084744, as well ran the Z-Report included in the note 1225682, however no success at all.
Would you kindly please shed a light on this matter?
Thank you in advance.
Everton.

Hello Everton,
If you are a var Customer using the transaction type ZLFN and action profile ZSLFN0001_ADVANCED, the action profile should be AI_SDK_STANDARD.
I don't now if that is the case.
If your issue persists, please trigger a message in SV-SMG-SUP.

Deleted message not removed from iPhone Inbox

Since updating my iPhone 3G to 4.01 I have found that when I delete messages from the inbox the messages are not completely removed from the inbox. I am left with a blank unread message. The only way I can completely delete is to turn the phone off and restart. Is anybody else having this problem? I have also found that I lose service in places I have been able to use the phone.
