Mail not showing new mail count

Very recently, Mail has stopped showing the new mail count next to the corresponding inbox on the bar on the left side of Mail. There are new emails sitting in the indox but it doesn't show a count. I upgraded to Mavericks and it there were no issues but now this is happening. Any ideas why?

Yes, these can also be removed. Tiger Mail no longer uses them. You can confirm this by looking at their modification date. It should be no later than the date you imported your Panther mail into Tiger mail.

  • Mail not showing new mail until I switch out of and back into INBOX

    When new mail is downloaded, the messages do not appear in the INBOX until I have moved to (clicked on) another mailbox and then moved back to INBOX. The unread message count reflects the correct number of unread messages until the above procedure has been followed. Similarly, when messages are moved to another mailbox, the messages sometimes do not leave the INBOX list until the same procedure is followed. This is a relatively recent problem (last couple of months, I think). Any ideas?

  • SecUpd2006-002, mail not showing new mails in dock anymore

    hello folks,
    i am not sure if the following problem is linked to the SecUpd2006-002 i just installed, but this just occured afterwards:
    mail is not showing the arrival of new emails in the dock anymore!
    ya know, that little red dot with the numbers of new mails in it.
    (is there a button or something to toggle this on and off anyway?)
    in mail itself they are still marked as new (bold letters) but in the dock nothing happens.
    anyone else having this problem? found out a solution already?
    thank you for your thoughts.
    p.s.: have repaired permissions already

    all right, found the solution by myself:
    was kind of a font problem.
    got a helvetica font from a customer. installation seems to have overwritten/removed the "normal" helvetica font installed by the system.
    so mail went nuts. noticed - besides the above mentioned problem - that the headers of the mails seemed to be a little weird: mail-adresses bigger sizes (or different font) than the other infos.
    so, if you ever run into something similar like this: clean up your fonts ;o)
    glad it's over, have a good one!

  • Mail not showing new mail

    Mail is no longer showing new messages when they arrive. I have to go to Take All Accounts Offline and then Take All Accounts Online, and only then to the messages appear in the inbox. I think this started after upgrading to Mavericks. Does anyone know how this can be resolved?

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

    Another you can try.
    Try reindexing the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • Mail icon shows new mail but all mail has been read.  Won't update with phone reset.

    My mail icon shows new mail (1 currently) but I have no new mail.  I have synced phone and turned off several times to no avail.

    If you have reset your phone several times and does not fix , then restore your phone in itunes from your backup. Be sure that you have a recent backup with all items that you wanted saved, synced.
    BEFORE, you do the restore, try deleting the mail account and reaading it and see if that fixes the issue, otherwise , then do the restore.

  • Mail not showing new emails

    Hi all
    Since installing Lion my Mac mail program has undergone some changes, mainly for the better, but one is really bugging me.
    When i received new mail under Leopard i used to get a blue dot by the inbox etc and a number count on the mail icon in the taskbar.
    Now i don't get either unless i select count all boxes in the prefferences which is good except any mail in other boxes does not get hightlighted so i have to search manualy throught them to find the unread mail.
    Anyone else having this problem?
    I have tried rebuilding, selecting inbox only and all boxes to be counted but still have same problem.
    The new email sound works but nothing visual.!!!
    Cheers
    Kev

  • Mail 4.6 on OS 10.6.8 suddenly does not show new mail

    All of a suden I don't see any new mail in the inbox though Mail Activity shows a download. This only is happening on my MacPro Not my Mac Laptop or iPhone.
    They work fine - same ISP (network Solutions, Same passwords, set up etc.
    This is the second time in six months Please help
    Thanks,
    Vance

    One of our clients is also having this problem. All other folders in the account display email fine. Inbox is empty though the mailbox info states there are 10000 emails in there. Minimising and maximising/restarting Mail does not fix this at all.
    Tried removing and re-adding account, still no luck.
    Reset plist - still nothing.
    Anyone know what is causing this? I have noticed that if I remove the account, reset mac mail preferences and then open mail it still remembers the email address and username whereas it used to ask for these upon a reset. Has something changed in recent updates?

  • Email folder not showing "new mail" alert

    I have several email folders on my blackberry.  When I recieve an email it only shows up on the "messages" folder.  My previous BB would show the new mail indicator in both "Messages" folder and the specific email folder it belonged in.  If I go to the specific folder, the email is inside, it just will not alert me to this folder.  Hope this makes sense.
    Currently I have 4 specific email folders, a text folder, and a messages folder. 
    How can I fix this? 
    I have an 8310 that was just replaced by another 8310 thru insurance coverage.
    Thank you very much!

    Not sure if this will work but try going into your email and hit bb menu key and choose message alerts and make sure you have a notification set for each one
    Hope it helps

  • Mail not showing new messages

    As of about 4 days ago my Mail app is not displaying new e-mails.  It says '19 incoming messages' but they never appear.  I have tried:
    - Replacing mail.plist with older version from time machine
    - Rebuilding mailboxes
    - Asking my web hosts if there is any problem their end - no problems there.
    - Checked the 'get account info' box which displays the 19 messages with 'unknown sender' still on the server.
    Any other ideas anyone?

  • Mail not showing new account

    Hi there!
    I have added a new account (IMAP) and successfully configured it with an automatic installer provided by the hosting service.
    I can see the new account only in the inbox folder, but not in the other folders (Sent, Trash, Junk, Drafts).
    How can I have it comparing in the other folders?
    Thank you for your reply.
    Juan Carlos

    I would expect the new address to show up in those boxes when you have made a draft, put something in the trash or sent something from the new address.
    With one address those boxes do not show until something is in them.
    Hope that is clear enough.

  • Mail not getting new mail

    I have had my work account setup through Mail for almost 2 years without a problem. Today it stopped retrieving new emails. I went to Window...Connection Doctor and Connection Status is green and both for incoming and outgoing it shows green. I can send emails fine, but it won't retrieve new emails that I have received. I also get emails to this account through my phone and it is getting new incoming emails.
    I have tried closing the app and restarting, doesn't work.
    I have tried restarting the OS, doesn't work.
    I haven't changed any settings in the past day, so its not a settings issue. That is unless Mail is now changing settings on its own.
    What else can I do to solve this?

    It does show in the bottom left that its connecting "Incoming messages..." and when it tries, it makes a tiny beep. Its not the "new email" sound, just a quiet, short beep. No idea what the sound means.

  • Mail not showing in mail box

    For three days, I was not receiving any email.  I talked to my email provider and they found that my email was being forwarded to another unknown account.  I called that email provider and learned that the email address supposedly receiving my emails has not been in service since 2004. My email provider has stopped forwarding my email to the bogus account. I have created my own gmail account and now have my email fowarded to the new gmail and have deleted my old account from my mac.  HOWEVER, I now see email activity in the lower left corner of the mail window saying messages are being sent and received--in large numbers, but they are not showing up anywhere on my mac.  When I compare what I am receiving in my mac mail account to what is on the gmail server, they all match up.  Why I am getting this activity? Where would it be coming from?

    Perhaps you can tell me how to restore my old emails from my old email account.
    If you moved your backup folder for that account (not the entire Mail folder) into the Home/Library/Mail folder, the next thing you need to do is launch Mail and setup that Gmail account again. But before you can do that, you need to login to the Gmail web interface and change your password to something secure (something that cannot be guessed, preferably at least 27 characters long and using a string of random characters). I use 1Password to generate these, but you could also use LastPass, which is free.
    If you don't use one of those password managers, copy the new password, paste it into a Sticky Note or TextEdit and save it.
    After you've done that, then setup the Gmail account in Mail again, and after you've done that, Mail will import the existing messages again, and sync them with Gmail.
    Where do you think the password was stolen from?  The email server or my computer?
    It wasn't stolen at all; it was just too easy to guess using standard hacking tools. That's why you have to use secure passwords that can't be guessed.

  • Unread and read mail not showing in Mail after upgrading to Yosemite

    Hi there,
    I recently upgraded to Yosemite.
    In the Mail app, mail is not showing up properly. I have unread mail, which is not showing up, despite me refreshing or sorting by unread first, and even an email I read this morning on Chrome isn't showing up, as you can see by screenshots.
    How do I fix this issue?

    Hi,
    In Mail > Mailbox dropdown menu, try clicking on Rebuild at the bottom.
