Mail not appearing in inbox.

When I click on get mail incoming mail is loaded and the number next to the inbox icon shows that I have unread messages, but they don't show up in the folder. I have to quit out of the Mail app, and reopen it to get messages to appear. A co-worker's computer has the same problem except reopening Mail doesn't fix the problem.

I am not sure I understand your question, "...how many total messages are available in the account's inbox mailbox?" I have checked, using webmail, how full each of the accounts are and they are no where near full (10%-20%), is that what you are asking?
I have a similar problem on two machines.
#1 G4 Powerbook running 10.4.4, it was purchased with 10.4.? and has had a few software updates. Problem: When the Mac Mail Application is opened, new messages will be loaded but none of the messages will appear in the message list window. The mailbox will show that I have unread messages, but they do not show up in my list. When I quit the application and restart it the messages will show up in the list as unread.
#2 G4 Emac running 10.3.9, it was purchased with who knows what and the school district installed an image with 10.3.9. It has not been updated. Problem: : When the Mac Mail Application is opened, new messages will be loaded but none of the messages will appear in the message list window. The mailbox will show that I have unread messages, but they do not show up in my list. Restarting the application does not solve the problem.

  • Incoming mail not appearing in inbox on my macbook

    Hi, Up until yesterday my mail was synching fine. Yesterday, all of sudden the incoming mail appears to be happening but the new messages are not in my inbox on my macbook. The messages are synching to my iPad.
    I tried rebuilding mail; rebooting; also repairing permissions per the other messages in this area.  Any other suggestions?

  • New IMAP mail not appearing in inbox

    I've been having trouble with new mail appearing in the inbox. Mail is set to check every minute, and the account is enabled. New mail will only appear in the inbox if I click on another mailbox and then re-select the inbox. It will also appear if i rebuild the mailbox, restart mail, or take mail offline and then online again. Manually checking mail doesn't cause new messages to appear. The account is an IMAP account, and I've since turned off all of the rules to no effect. Is anyone else having this type of problem? Any ideas how to get mail to update properly?

    Do you happen to check your mail from different mail clients on different computers? For example, when I check mail from both my laptop and my desktop, I've noticed that one of them can stop getting new mail or even get confused about which message it's displaying. The subject might say one thing, but when I click on it, I get the body of a different message. I've found that the mail client can get confused about how many messages are in the mailbox if the other client deleted some messages.
    That's when syncing the client with the server is necessary.
    If I delete two messages from one client, then I don't see new mail in the other client until I get more than two messages, and even then I never see those first two unless I sync.

  • Mail not appearing in notification center... Also, gears not appearing in the mail app.

    I tried to configure my mac to enable it to receive mails in the notification center but cant. i have tried to send an email from other IDs but havent received any banner or alert while using my mac. i have checked the show alerts and banners in notification center. Do i have to keep the window of the mail app in a specific position to receive alerts in the notification centre? Also, the gears are not appearing in the mail app when i fetch for new mail. please help..

    I'm also having this problem.
    Notifications receives alerts from Reminders app, but not Mail.
    I've set preferences in Mail for 'Inbox Only' and 'All Mailboxes', sent test mail from ISP webmail and Google (Mail is not setup to receive from this account) - still no notifications.
    I had previously used Growl (v1.4) and GrowlMail very successfully (with 10.7), but while upgrading to Mountain Lion I was informed that GrowlMail was incompatible so I deleted it.
    While testing this problem of not receiving Mail Notifications I have disabled Growl and rebooted.
    Like others here:
    Checked: Notifications setup
    Checked: Mail setup
    Rebuilt permissions
    Rebooted
    Any help would be very gratefully received.
    Many thanks.

  • Mail not appearing as HTML - Mail Adapter

    Hello All,
    I'm using the mail package in a receiver mail adapter. During mapping I format the content in HTML format, using &lt; &gt; form < and >. Also I set the content type of the mail package to text/html. However when the mail is received, the content of the mail is the html with tags, it does not appear as an html page. When I see the source the file still has the escape characters instead of < and >. But when I save this as an html file and open it, it appears as a web page.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Sandeep

    HI,Specify whether you want to encode the content of the e-mail message. You have the following options:
    ·        None
    ·        base64 (default value)
    ·        quoted-printable
    use quoted-printable
    Coding of characters in e-mails that are not contained in the ASCII character set.
    The code contains German umlauts and special characters

  • Sent mail not appearing in icloud

    I use my macbook air, iphone and my ipad to send mail from my @me.com account. But when i send an email from my macbook it does not appear in the sent mail folder on icloud. The iphone and ipad both work properly if i send mail from either device it appears in the icloud sent mail folder.
    I've been trough the settings on my macbook and have the "Store sent messages on sever" option ticked, and the email accoutn is set up as an IMPA account but it still doesn't work.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Same here! Works on my iPad, iPhone and MacAir. But on my PowerMac the sent mail doesn't show up at all. I can't even find the messages I've tried to send so I can try retype them and resend on my iPhone.
    Does your "sent" folder continually beach ball? Mine is non-stop beach balls. Like it's trying really hard to update the sent folder but ran into a Sysiphus stone.
    hmm.

  • AOL mail not appearing on macbook

    If I log into AOL through Safari, I often find that I have emails at AOL.com that do not appear in my mail notices on my Macbook pro, but if I look at my ipod, they are always there.   Is there some setting that I need to change on the laptop? 

    I had the same problem for the past few days. I'm using Hotmail and Gmail with Exchange Active Sync. I'm receiving e-mails with sender and subject but no text in the body of the e-mail.I'm from The Netherlands so i guess it's not a provider issue.
    I tried deleting my account on my iPhone 4 and re-enter my settings. But still was getting empty e-mails. I shutdown my iPhone 4 completely and then i restarted it and now all my e-mail appear with text in the body of the e-mail.

  • Sent mail not appearing in Internet mail box

    I have recently been using Mail on iMac and while I can receive and view all emails on it. But strange thing is that whatever I sent from Mail on the iMac, it just appeared on the Mail Sent box but do not appear on the internet version of email sent box or anywhere in the internet version. I do have an iPhone and the sent mail from the iMac Mail cannot be found too. However, receiptents do receive my emails anyway. It is frustrating and disappointed that this happened and unable to do work on my iMac in this way especially when I am travelling and away from my desk.
    Currently I am using Yahoo! .sg mail with IMAP and has checked thoroughly, including the outgoing server. Did many delete and re-installing but this does not seem to work. Maybe there are some steps that I have overlooked, or improper installation, could somebody help?
    JChanSGP

    I find that perhaps one message in ten is not saved to my sent folder. I am using .mac mail. I am storing sent messages on the server, draft messages locally.
    It seems that some kind of timeout on port 143 prevents the message from being copied to the sent folder, although the message is actually sent.
    This is clearly a bug. Even if there is a communication failure, the message should remain accessible somewhere, not drift off into the ether. It would be far preferable to risk sending twice by holding the outgoing message in drafts until the move to sent completes.

  • Mail - Yahoo IMAP sent mail not appearing

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to troubleshoot this without much success. I've an iphone and a MBP running Lion. I've several Yahoo and Gmail accounts, and they are all set up as IMAP accounts.
    Receiving and viewing messages are fine. However, if I were to send an email using one of the Yahoo accounts via Mail on the MBP, it gets sent successfully, but that email does not appear within the 'server' sent mailbox, nor within my iPhone mail app. Gmail seems to work fine.
    I've highlighted each relevant 'sent' mailbox on my mac and set it to 'Use this mailbox' within the Mailbox menu, but it has not made a difference.
    Any ideas on how to resolve this?
    Much appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Alvin

    Sending is done via SMTP. What happened here is that SMTP accepted the mails for sending (thus, the mail client put them in the sent folder). From that moment on, SMTP needs to actually deliver mails to the recipient(s). Until this has happened, mails stay in the mail queue of your mail server.
    You did not mention if the mails got eventually delivered, so here is a list of some possible reasons for late delivery or non-delivery:
    -Receiving mail server does not respond
    -Connectivity issues
    -amavisd not running
    -Mail got flagged as spam (non-delivery). This would happen if you are trying to send mail from a blacklisted IP (like dynamic IPs) and your mail server is not configured to bypass spam scans for authenticated users.

  • Workitem is not appearing in inbox

    Hi Friends,
    I am creating workflow for sales order approval/rejection. For this I am using one decision option 'change sales order' in user decision. After pressing this decision option sales order will appear in change mode. Upto this part it is working fine. But the problem is without changing any value if I press 'Back' or 'Cancel' button, the workflow is getting dissapeared from the workflow inbox. Because of this reason I could not able to do the changes once again. How to rectify this?
    Regards,
    Steve

    Hi Ahmed,
    I tried on what you said. Some what it is fine, but it is creating problems if I cancel the dialog box and once again trying to change the order. Sales order is not appearing at all. Kindly clarify.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Steve

  • New mail messages not appearing in Inbox

    Hi there,
    I IMAP my email at work using Mail. Sometimes, messages don't appear in the inbpx or Smart folder that I have set up. I have rules for most people which moves teh unread message into their respective mail folder on the mail server. Its only, when I click on a mail folder that the message appears in the folder, the Inbox and the Smart folder.
    Any ideas? Is it my mail server or Mail thats is causing this??
    regards, Chris

    The message that you tried to send is probably stuck in Outbox, but it looks like Envelope Index may have gone awry as well, so let’s re-create both:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
    4. Move any “IMAP-”, “Mac-”, or “Exchange-” account folders to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all mail stored there to be lost.
    5. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/, locate Outbox.mbox and move it to the Desktop if you want to preserve any messages waiting there, or just trash it otherwise.
    6. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    7. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folders, those accounts may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring them back online.
    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.
