Mail not downloading from one account after iPhone sync

Since I allowed my iPhone to sync my mail accounts, I can only receive mail from one of my accounts on my iPhone, no longer on my laptop.
Mail on my laptop seems to be checking for mail, and in the activity window it seems like its going to start downloading, then nothing happens. Sometimes I get a 'Maildrop Busy error message on my laptop. At least I'm getting the mail, but I'd prefer it on my laptop too!
Any ideas?

Hi demonknitter, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions.
In your home folder, try moving this +folder & file+ to the Desktop then reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail
Move to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Then reboot once more.

  • I am sending an email from one account on iphone 4s but the replies are coming into another account on my phone

    I have had an iphone 4s for about a year and have 4 email accounts that come in on it: verizon, gmail, my work, and icloud.  Periodically, I send an email from one account, it shows the message as sent from that account in my sent mail, but the recipient receives it from the gmail account and therefore replies to the gmail.  Has anyone had this happen?  It is almost as if my messages are bouncing into gmail when I send them, although on my phone it shows as having been sent from another account.  I have not had this happen on my computer where I have all of these emails coming in as well.  I thought perhaps it was me not being careful about which account I was sending from when using my phone, but the mail I sent this morning I was very careful to make sure was from verizon, the sent mail on my phone shows it was sent from verizon, and the reply came in on gmail.  Gmail isn't even the default email address- verizon is! My iphone is using version 6.1.3. Does anyone have any ideas? This is a major problem for me so I appreciate any ideas!  Thank you!!!

    I am not sure whether this is related, but I had a problem with Gmail where each time I sent and email via my iPhone it would bounce back in my Gmail account as unread. You migh want to check this Google article explaining why this happens and how to avoid it:

  • Mac Mail not sending from correct account.

    I constantly use Mail to send and receive emails on my MacBook.
    On it I have three email 'accounts' - my me.com address (for formal emails to work, banks etc.), my "junk" address (for spam, gaming etc.) and my "home" address (for personal emails and everything else).
    When typing an email, if I choose to send it from a different account than the one I originally selected, I can just change it in the 'From' pop-down menu (under the 'To', 'Cc', 'Bcc' and 'Subject' fields).
    Recently though, for some reason when I want to send an email from my "home" address, it sends it from my "junk"one instead, even if I am sending it 'From' my "home" address.
    It still has my "home" address' signature, and not every time it does send from my "junk" one instead - rather it seems to send from both as it feels up to.
    This bothers me quite a bit, especially when I send an important email using my "home" address but it sends from my "junk" - both confusing and annoying me and the recipients.
    This only just started happening to me this past week. Does anyone else have the same issue, and any help would be greatly appreciated

    Some mail servers such as gmail will change the address when sending from one account through another account's server.
    Go into Mail's preferences under Accounts. Highlight each account and make sure the correct outgoing server is listed for that account with the correct user name and password. Each account should have their own. Check the box to use only that server with that account. Do this for all accounts.
    If you don't check the box and the server fails, it will move on to the next one in the list. Then you will get the address from that server even though you're sending from a different account.
    If the server does fail, you will get a selection box to try again or select another server.

  • Mail not checking from main Account window

    It used to be up until recently that if I went to my main mail account window to manually check my email that all 4 of my POP mail accounts would check and the number of unread messages would display. Now I am having to open each individual mail account separately to check for new messages. I have tried deleting all of my accounts and re-entering them, resetting the phone, wi-fi on and off but it's still the same.
    Was this something new to 3.0?

    Update: I installed all updates (there weren't many; I tend to install updates quickly), rebooted, restarted Mail -- same problem. But it somehow seems to have fixed itself overnight. The weird numbers in the Mail Activity window are no longer happening, and mail is downloading from all my accounts.

  • Mail 'not downloaded from the server'

    Recently, I have been getting the message
    "The message from Xxxxxxx (this is my account name) concerning “Xxxxxxxx (subject of the message)” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
    This happens whenever I try to open old mesages, sent or received. But usually only happens after the program has been working fine for a few hours!
    If I quit Mail and restart it, all is OK for a while. But it usually happens again.
    Can anyone offer a solution, please?
    Very many thanks!

    Mike,
    In addition, the followup if you are using Mail 1.3, and the statement that this message is almost certain to be caused by an Overstuffed Mailbox, typically caused by size and large numbers of messages of diverse types is to see:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121837
    and the important link it contains of:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25812
    There are a few conditions caused by files that might not be needed, if any were leftover from Jaguar's mailbox structure, but somewhat rare. After you read these, let me know what you find, and any questions you may have.

  • Mail not downloaded from server

    I've never had any problem reading my mail but am now getting the following message: Message has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it. As far as I can see, the account is online. If I restart the computer, this sometimes fixes the problem temporarily. Please help.

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    If you are running 10.3.9, as the info below your post reports, then you likely have an Overstuffed Mailbox. The message you are getting is the result of errors in the index for the mailbox.
    First, confirm your version of OSX, and if 10.3.9, then read:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121837
    and the important link within it of:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25812
    After observing the size of this mailbox (is it the Inbox?), report that result.

  • Apple Mail : Move emails from one account to another

    Good Day,
    I please need help with Apple Mail. A client of mine recently changed her email address from her webhost to online exchange. I setup her new email in Apple Mail and that is all working and nice.
    Her Apple mail now shows 2 accounts:
    - the old IMAP
    - the new Exchange
    I would like to consolidate all emails from her old IMAP account to her new Exchange account, so that they are all in one place. In Outlook you can just drag and drop emails and folders between the accounts, but my client says that that doesn't work in Apple Mail.
    How would I go about moving these emails from one email account within Apple Mail to another?
    Sorry for the trivial question, but I am a Windows girl and not as versed in Mac;)
    Thanks for the help!
    Maike

    Try creating a new mailbox in the On My Mac section and drag the e-mails there. Mail/Mailbox/New Mailbox.

  • How can I delete a purchase (Mavericks) that has not downloaded from my account?

    How can I delete a purchse that has not yet downloaded (Mavericks) from my account? I contacted App Store support and my responder claims to have deleted Mavericks from myaccoount. He didn't; it is still there, under the purchases tab-in the cloud. Thank you.

    Hi Dah-veed
    Thanks for your response. But it doesn't make sense. Mavericks wouldn't download, and although I decided that I wasn't ready for it yet (incompatibility issues), I would like to be ale to get it (OSX) in the future, and if it shows as 'purchased', I won't be able to 'start over' fresh.

  • Mail not downloading from pop server

    I hit the get mail button, and I see "Incoming Messages" working away in the bottom left corner, but the messages don't get downloaded to my imac.
    I checked the Account INfo and the mail is on the POP server, but hasn't downloaded to my mail app.
    What can I do?

    This is bad. My Inbox now shows empty. I have checked the mbox/messages folder, and it contains a lot of emix files, which are readable, but strangely, they are very old, many from previous years. There are no recent mails in these emix files. Yet I only keep the last couple of months' emails in my Inbox!
    There are over 600 messages on the POP server, and I have stopped checking mail, in case Mail tells the server I have them, and my pending mails are deleted on the server. Checking Mail does not seem to show any new mails in my Inbox, although SpamSieve has logged several. (I have saved SpamSieve's log, so I can have its summary of emails I've supposedly received, and I can email their senders about them later if I have indeed lost these emails.)
    I have turned off TimeMachine, so it doesn't overwrite my previous Inbox. When I check it, it contains emails up to the point where I upgraded to Leopard (21 November), but when I open these emix files, they only have a title, no contents.
    I am confused and worried. Before upgrading to Leopard, I had a working mail client, and a lot of email in my Inbox. After upgrading, I can't receive mail, and my Inbox shows as empty. I have repaired permissions and restarted, more than once. Console has no comment: indeed, it shows no information after the 21st November (the day I upgraded), although other logs, such as the SpamSieve log, continue to update, and crash logs continue to be written. There are older "console" logs from previous dates, but the current "console" only goes up to 21st November.
    Please advise me. I am frightened to do anything else myself, in case I lose my data. My concentration is very limited, but I can follow simple instructions.
    I do not understand why Leopard Mail has rearranged my mailboxes. I had quite a few extra mailboxes within my overall account, and I filtered mailing list messages into them. (These mailboxes still contain their mail, including some messages which SpamSieve logs as received today.) These extra mailboxes are listed as part of "On My Mac", which I thought used to be the whole hierarchy, but after upgrading to Leopard, is only a sub-section of the hierarchy, listed after Reminders and Smart Mailboxes (I installed MailTags once, but had problems with it, so I removed it). Could this rearrangement of mailboxes be part of the current problem?
    Thankyou for any help you can offer.

  • Check for new mail not working on one account

    For a number of months now I have been having trouble getting new mail. I have my Apple Mail 2.1 preferences set to check for new mail every minute and play a New Mail Sound when something arrives. This seems to be working for my earthlink POP account but not my dot.mac e-mail account. The only way to get new dot.mac e-mail on my G5 tower is to alternately click on the left most icons for the different incomming tray icons in my in box, then the InBox icon itself. I dont have to do that for my second e-mail account--an earthlink POP account, or on either account on my laptop. Also, When I do click on the specific in box for my dot mac account, it takes forever to load that new mail, and the activity monitor shows that it is caching every attachment that is already in my in box even though it is already old mail.
    Also, Mail seems to be following Smart Mailboxes arbitrarily. For instance, I have a smart mailbox set up to display any incoming mail from someone in my Family Group from address book, however it seems to ignore about half of these, but display the other half accurately.
    Anyone know whats going on or how to fix it so I dont have to mannually keep checking for new mail? Again, I have my preferences set to check for new mail every minute and to play a new mail sound, and new mail does work fine from my Earthlink POP account.
    Thanks for your help.

    If this happens to your .Mac account only, try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

  • [No body found] on all mails from one account

    All mails I get from one account are empty, containing only [no body found].
    The mail is fetched from the ISP via fetchmail, forwarded to Zarafa-Groupware and synced with the mobile devices via Z-push (OSS ActiveSync solution). All other mail clients work fine (Android, IOS, Nokia Mail for Exchange,...) and the calendar as well as notes and adresses all sync fine. Only the mail bodies are empty 
    The logs on the server look fine... 
    Any hints on how to get get it working? Or at least on how to get more debug info on the Z10?
    Thanks in advance!
    Cheers,
    Ycas

    Hmmm...well, then the only thing I can recommend is that you contact your mobile service provider for formal support and, likely, escalation into BlackBerry. They may want to collect logs and such to see if they can replicate the problem. It also may simply be an unsupported provider...it's really quite impossible for any device to support every provider (I admit, it should work...but there is a slight chance...).
    Good luck!

  • IPhone Only Sends Mail From Default Account After 1.1.1 Update

    I just noticed that no matter which account I use to send an email in the iPhone mail app, the email is sent from my default account. I have Yahoo, Gmail, and .Mac accounts, and they all function properly (i.e, they can all send and receive, view folders, etc.) When I change the default account to any of these accounts, all of my mail is sent from that account--including replies and forwards to messages in a non-default account. I don't think this occurred before the 1.1.1 update, but it's possible I never noticed it until now.
    As you can imagine, changing the default account each time I need to send an email from a different account is frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I noticed the same issue today, it was not like that before. I tested it prior to the update. I have yet to find a way around this besides switching the default account.

  • Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information, so that I don't lose purchases made by my iPhone when I sync?

    The AOL address I was using for my iTunes account has been deleted due to me not signing in for awhile and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my purchases made from my iphone when I sync it into iTunes for a much needed update and so that I can (hopefully) transfer its data to my new iPhone 4...
    The only time I have synced my current iPhone was when I activated it but since then I have not been able to sync with my computer and now have a new one.
    Sorry about the garbled way this is written but I desperately need help:
    1, Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information?
    Or
    2, is there a way of recovering my old account and changing the details?
    Any other help is greatly appreciated
    Thom

    You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

  • 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.
    G4 17 inch   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   1 gb ram

    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.
