Mail opens three messages when I open it

This has been happening for a few weeks: upon launching Mail, it immediately opens three separate windows, one each for different aliases I have linked to my Mail account.
I only really use one--my main alias for the Roadrunner email address I have--and I don't even remember adding the others.
1) If I keep the other aliases, can I stop Mail from opening messages automatically?
2) If i want to get rid of the other aliases, how do I do that?
Thanx.

Do you have any mailboxes approaching or that have exceeded 1 GB in size?
How often have you used the Rebuild Mailbox function on all mailboxes?
If never or not often, don't do so on any mailboxes until checking their size. This shouldn't be used on any mailbox that is approaching or has exceeded 1 GB in size.

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
Is this possible? I don't see any options?
All I see is this:
Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for
   transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
      Your bill is ready for review.
     Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
     Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

What phone?
You would need to disable data on the phone itself. You wouldn't do it online on your account.
Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.

Mail blooms two messages when sending file through dock

Just upgraded to Leopard from Tiger. When I drag a .doc or .mp3 to Mail in the Dock, Mail opens two new messages instead of one.
Has anyone else seen this?

I've seen this same bug, and reported it. It only happens with certain file formats and in certsin conditions, though.

How to use Mail to sent messages when away from home

How do I have to configure my "Mail" on my PowerBook G-4 (OS 10.4.5) in order to use it in a WIFI enviroment?
At home when connected via Airport to my own Outgoing Mail Server (smtp 8. sympatico.ca) I have absolutely no problems. However, last year I was on a Cruise Ship and tried to use the existing WiFi System. I could receive messages using Mail, but I could not send messages using Mail.
At the moment I'm visiting my son in the Boston area and I'm having the same problem. I was forced to use the Sympatico Web Mail in order to sent E-mail messages. (receiving mail using "Mail", represents no problem)
There has to be a way to configure Mail to originate messages and sent them as well, but I cannot find anything which tells me how to do that.
The version presently installed for Mail is 2.0.7.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Hank

Hank,
The problem here is your ISP (looks like its Sympatico) blocking connections to their mail server from computers not connected directly to their network. I wouldn't blame your ISP though b/c as I understand it almost ALL ISPs block these type of connections to cut down on SPAM being sent.
What you need to do is to find the outgoing mail server for the network you are on.
For example, if you look on the "Mail" settings on your Son's computer and note his "Outing Mail Server" (in the "Accounts" pain of "Mail" prefs) settings and then go to your machine and put in that same "Outgoing Mail Server" info then you should be fine.
You can do this on your machine by selecting "Add Server..." from the "Outgoing Mail Server" drop down menu. When the window comes up just type in the same settings your Son uses. If he does not have a machine with mail setup on it then you can call his ISP and they'll tell you.
Remember to switch the "outgoing mail server" back to your home server when you return home. By the way, most places (like hotels) will give you their outgoing mail server info if you ask them, so next time you're on a cruise with wifi you might try asking the IT people.
Best of luck,
Allen

Why is Mail showing new messages when nothings there?

I decided to delete the Apple RSS feed from my mail, and suddenly the mail icon on shows 17 new messages (the same amount that were present in the RSS feed when it was deleted) and I don't know how to get it to stop showing it.
This is really ******* me off because I never wanted a RSS feed in the first place, now that I get rid of it, I'm stuck with this huge red "17" on my mail icon.
So can somebody tell me how to get rid of it?

Nevermind. For some reason when I attempted to quit mail, the new messages dissappeared.

Mail not displaying message when opened by Windows computers

I am sending out emails to clients with an attachment.Then in the mail field I write a summary as bullet points. My Microsoft clients receive the attachment but no message un the mail field.

Simular problem:
Its iMail Version 6.3 (1503) which comes with a fresh install of 10.8.3.
Any email base64 encoded is corrupted or not shown.
eg Any message from and Exchange Client that has both plain text and html in the same message where the plain text section is Base64 encoded.
eg
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_000_CD848A046C8D3_"
MIME-Version: 1.0
--_000_CD848A046C8D3_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
base 64 encoded block
-_000_CD848A046C8D3_
Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
base 64 encoded block
The work arround it to switch to the classic view, open the message there, then switch back to the modern view and the text of the message magically appears. Its probably something to do with the way in which the new iMail processes message bodies, that the older style viewer had fixed. (You can switch between classic view and modern view under the Vieweing preferences tab)
It also seems to impact sent messages or anything thats been base64 encoded.
Hopefully its such a major bug it will be fixed soon. (lol, like some of the bugs in iMail on 10.6.8 were fixed ?)

Gmail won't send messages, and Mail shows sent messages when I don't want

I have my Gmail account set up through the Mail application. I can receive messages fine but I can't send them. So I send them by actually logging into Gmail. Now when I send them that way, they show up in my Mail account but i don't want them to. Help please!

I am having the same problem. I have tried Mulder's solution without success.
Here is some background:
I have two gmail accounts. My normal "[email protected]" account with which I am using POP does send mail. However I also have a google apps account ("username@my_domain.com") connected with IMAP and I can't send using this one. I have tried the various ports suggested by gmail help. It won't connect with the outgoing server. I ran a Telnet test and my computer is connecting with the server, but it appears as "offline" in Mail. User authentification and SSL are both checked (although I have also tried unchecking them).

OS X 10.5 Mail shows unread messages when there are none and get ghost messages

I have been searching for an ansswer to this delimma, but have found similar issues but none exactly the same. I run 10.6 server and have mixed network users of 10.6 and 10.5 clients. One of the users on 10.5 's mail app keeps showing unread messages, but there are no unread messages. When they click on another mail box in the mail client or another folder the number changes, but ther always seems to be one or two. The user also gets at least 2 blank e-mails in the mail app. I have check the users web mail account and there are no blank e-mail messages or spam. I tried to rebuild the mail box, and have also tried trashing the indexs, and they still get the same message. Short of creating a new user does anyone have any suggestions? None of my other users seem to have the same problem, although they do not use mail as much as this one user does.....

I get this issue every single day, and it is specifically reproducible. Here is the scenario:
1) I have two mail accounts configured on my iPhone, one is my work account and is disabled on the phone, the other is my gmail account which is always enabled on my phone
2) Each morning, when I head into work I enabled my work email account so I can start reading my work emails for the day. This downloads all the new messages from the server and displays them as unread.
3) I read some of them, but not all of them.
4) Once I get to my office, I read all of the rest of my new work emails from the Mail app on my MacBook Pro.
EXPECTED: The messages that are read on the mail app are updated as read messages
OBSERVED: On my iphone, not all of the messages have their statuses changed to read. Some of them always remain as unread messages
5) Next, I delete some of the messages read from my computer from the email server altogether.
EXPECTED: These messages would also appear deleted when using the mail app on my iPhone
OBSERVED: Not only are the messages not deleted, but they are still listed as unread
The only way to resolve this each day is for me to select each message and view it for a second to have the unread message indicator removed. I have to turn off the mail account and turn it back on for it to correctly sync with the mail server and correct the mistakes.
There is clearly a problem within the iPhone mail app with retrieving updates from the mail servers.
I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.2.1 that I purchased in November. Before that, I had an iPhone 3G S and never experienced the issue on my 3G S. My MacBook Pro was used with both devices.

Mail only sends messages when connected to WiFi? Hmmmm.

Hi. I've got a POP3 email account that I have to set up manually. For some reason, emails can only be sent when connected to WiFi but not over a cellular data network. Anyone got any ideas? I can receive mail fine through either WiFi or Cellular Data Network.
Many thanks,
Max

Do you have a wireless network at home and Is the email account provided by your internet service provider associated with your wireless network?
Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated. The same applies when connected to the internet via the cellular network. Recieving is not a problem regardless the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time.
If the email account is provided by your ISP, most ISPs do not have an authenticated SMTP sever for the email account they provide.
Both my email accounts have an authenticated SMTP server and I've never had a problem sending with either account regardless the ISP associated with a wi-fi network I'm connected to at the time or when connected to AT&T's cellular network - for 2+ years aporoaching 3 years this July.

Constantly getting "Loading" messages when trying to open mail
