Mail messages not displayed

Hello everyone,
After installing through the regular (no personalisation) installation, Leopard 10.5.6 on a Power Book G4, I cannot see anymore of my old emails in my inboxes!!!
I also see no activities in mail!
Yet the old emails are in the "Mail" folder in the "library" folder for the user.
I just dont see them in the in box, nor in the "sent messages" box.
Another erratic happening is that when opening mail, through the dock the "message window" does not open automatically, as it used to, unless you go in the "window" menu and select "message window".
Thanks for your help... because I have this problem happening on 2 different computers both PowerBook G4's!!!

while still searching the Apple Discussions I found the following thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8967892&#8967892
here it is mentioned that you have also to remove the two files named MessageSorting.plist and MessageSorting.plist.backup and voila Mail is running again.
Apple should update their info TS2537 with this info. I think these two other files have made it from the Panther-time to Tiger and now in Leopard they cause this problem (maybe).
Anyway Mail is now up and running on my updated MacBook.

Email messages not displaying since Marverick installation

Since I installed Maverick this morning I am having countelss problems particularly with Apple Mail
1) Smart mailboxes: it takes forever to display content
2) Messages not displaying: some old email messages appear suddently as blank messages, not text, headers or anything. Even when trying to display message as "raw source" nothng happens. Absolutely BLANK
3) Gmail: "All mail" folders from Gmail disapeared after upgrade
I restarted the computer, I restarted Apple Mail several times and still have the same problems.
Any suggestions? If not, how do I downgrade to the previous OS version?
Thanks,
SB

Is this with a specific account or all three accounts?
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

HTML messages not displaying

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but can't find a palce for apple mail.
so here's my problem:
Apple mail is not displaying some HTML email messages correctly.
Most messages are fine, but some come through as text and html code.
I have tried deleting the email account from apple mail and starting over with a new mailbox with no success.
The same email will display fine on other computers, webmail and iOS devices, but incorrectly on my Macbook Pro.
This was a problem in Snow Leopard, and has continued in Lion.
Anyone have a solution?
thanks

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 the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
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. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
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? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Mail will not display images with .jpeg extension. .jpg works fine. (displays in place when opening the email. What plug-in would correct this?

If you think you're insane now, try maintaining those pop up menus.
As far as I know, these menus have not been updated since FW 8, so
they are at least two versions old.
Save yourself a lot of grief by avoiding those menus. There are many
other products on the market which do a much better job of creating
and maintaining this type of navigation structure.
Read this link before you climb any higher on this slippery slope:

There was another blog post by the fellow who originally wrote the pop
up menu feature, but I can't seem to locate it. Even he says stay away
from them.
Not the answer you probably want, but I hope it helps, nonetheless.

Mail will not display, screen returns to home screen when I try.

MMail will not display or load up. When I enter the mail icon it instantly returns to the home screen. Therefor mail will not display or show.

The Mail App is crashing on you. You might have a corrupt email, a spam email or an email with a very large attachment that is causing the crash. It could also be a corrupt setting. It's difficult to know that it could be. If you have a computer, log into your email account in a web browser and look for any problematic emails and try deleting them there.
Try closing the mail app completely on the iPad, reset the device and then try mail again.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Mails are not displayed after migration to new iMac

Hello!
Today I migrated the contents of my old office iMac (G4, MacOS 10.4.11) to my new one (new 20'', MacOS 10.5) via FireWire.
Unfortunately my mails are not displayed on my new Mac:
I can see all my mailboxes on the left side, but the window, that should show the mails themselves is empty. I already took a look into the /library/mail folder and all my mails seem to be there.
They are just not displayed.
I use mail on that Mac with only one POP account.
What could cause this behaviour?
Thank you very much in advance!
Thomas

I figured out niw, how to solve the problem:
After the migration go to the Userdirectory-> Library -> Mail and delete the files:
MessageRules.plist
MessageRules.plist.backup
MessageSorting.plist
MessageSorting.plist.backup
Then Mail works properly.
(The only thing ist, that all filer rules are gone.)

Is07 backgound too bright in mail, messages, notes, calendar

Hello! I just upgraded to is07 and the bright white background in the iphone apps like mail, messages, notes, and calendar is hard on my eyes. How can we change this to a darker background? Thank you!

Matthew,
I don't correspond with anyone using Lotus. Are you using a POP account, or IMAP account with this server?
I am not very expectant of this helping, but open one of these messages, and then click on Message in the Menubar, and in its pull-down place the cursor on Text Encodings, and try some choices, other than Automatic. Test first with Unicode at the bottom of the list, and then with Western (Mac Mail). Let us know if this alters anything.
Next, after opening such a message, click on View, place the cursor on Message, and choose Raw Source -- is the text of the message now readable?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail does not display the count of unread messages

Hi,
I upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard (on a Macbook Pro mid 2009) when Maverick went out.
Since then the count of unread messages in the Inbox is not displayed on the Dock Icon, nor in the app itself (the label Inbox does not change to bold with a count of unread messages when I do have unread messages).
I did when to see the preferences of the app to see if the move from Snow Leopard to Maverick changed anything but I could not see anything odd.
Anyone having the same problem?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Martin Monnier

Business Workplace Inbox : Mail Content Not Displayed

Friends,
We have a problem in displaying contents of the mail(SAP Inbox) in one of the PC's. When we reply w/refernce to that message the content is displayed properly. And also the same mail content is displayed properly in another PC's for the same user.
We thought this is a GUI problem and re-installed SAP GUI(all components) but still the issue exists.
Any other settings are required to be done to solve this problem? Can anyone please help us solving the issue?
Note: we are using SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 for creating the mail notification and the content is passed as 'RAW'.
Thank you very much for your help and suggestions.
Cheers,
MS

Srinivas,
1) Is the problem only with the message being sent through custom code using SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1? What happens if you send a message using SAPOffice?
2) Are the patch levels of the GUI same on both machines? Are you sure both PCs are configured exactly the same? Especially wrt to Windows & IE patches. I vaguely remember there were some issues a while ago with some IE patches. Normally in most client environments the desktops upgrades are controlled centrally and users do not have admin rights. Make sure the user has not done upgrades/installs on the PC in question. If that were the case the PC may needs to be reimaged.
BTW - What version are you on R/3 and SAPGUI?

HT5361 Is it possible to embed raw latex into a mail message to display an equation?

Hi,
Is it possible to embed raw latex (or any other meta data format like HTML) into a mail message? I would really like to be able to send equations directly without converting them to PDF or GIF first.
Thanks,
Joe

I just borrowed a quadratic equation from the MathML Wikipedia site and grafted it into an HTML document. It imaged fine in Safari 7. It should be noted that neither the latest Google Chrome or FIrefox rendered the same content accurately.
Laying out your entire email message (including MathML) in HTML can be tedious. Once it is displayed in the browser, each use of the command+I will put the browser content in a new Mail compose window. So, you cannot add an equation to existing Mail composition. Select, copy and paste (or paste and match style) will not work either.
Depending on the importance you place on email equations, at one time, Design Science (MathType) claimed compatibility with Apple Mail (4.5) where you could input your equation in MathType and it could then be placed within the email. The mail recipient would not need a copy of MathType installed for this to work. MathType even allows you to key your equation in with LaTeX syntax to generate the equation.
You could check with them about functionality (or restrictions) with Mail 6 and 7 on OS X, as it might provide a more productive way to achieve your goals.

Sent mail does not display!

I'm on OS 10.3.9 and using mail 1.3.11 About 3 months ago, all my outgoing sent mail stopped displaying. when I click the sent tab, the list of mails sent will display but when i highlight any of them the contents of the mail isn't there. This is the message I get "The message from <[email protected]> concerning “Fwd: Okay...here you are” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it." Ok, I've already contacted everyone else (hosting company, internet provider etc) and everything seems fine on their end. Everyone seems to feel it is my mail client problem. I feel it's very important to have documented records of the mail I've sent and now I've lost that. Please help!!
Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I'm having this same problem, not only does it not show in sent mail, but the mail isn't actually sent. I have sent a ton of test emails to my self, and none have arrived. I'm a mac novice and I am a bit frustrated!

Mac Mail apostrophes not displaying correctly

Hi,
I am using Mac OSX Mavericks 10.9
Mail Version 7.0 (1822)
I have recived an email to my gmail account and the apostrophes are not displaying.
Here are a few examples from the message:
havenâ€™t (Haven't)
weâ€™ve (We've)
youâ€™re (You're)
These all display correctly on the Gmail website within Google Chome.
I am using English UK
Is there anything I can do to resolve this?

When this was happening last week they also suggested
you totaly quit Safari after empting your cache. Try
that.
I've tried shutting it down (safari as well as the computer) but its still loading the same... any more hints? Thanks, M.

Messages not displaying in Outlook 2013

I recently purchased a new computer and installed my Office 2013 software on it. Outlook does not display any message at all in the Inbox. All subfolders display correctly and they appear in the Inbox when I use OWA. Creating a new Outlook profile
did not help. A profile under another account which has delegate rights to mine displays their inbox but not mine. Also, new message will show up in the Unread mail section in my favorites which is the only way to see new messages. After reading them, the
only way to see them again is through OWA. The Outlook profile is not cached.
