Mail Version 2.0.5 (746/746.2) imap problems

to make a log story really short mail has the following 2 biggest problems:
1. searching imap accounts does not really work smothley.
i can't stop my feeling that sometimes i find mails somtimes i simpley do not find stuff i am looking for. but i could swear its was there.
2. reading a mail - hold on wait - some minutes later the same message is marked as unread again
wired wired wired. even if i already replyed the the email, sometimes mail does not seem to be able to mark a mail as read in teh first place.
please apple make those 2 problems go away.
my wish is a fast imap integration
thanx to all the paitent apple users going though this

mail is a cap client.

Mail 3.2, Gmail and iPhone POP and IMAP Problems

This is a Mail problem but I am pretty sure it has something to do with the iphone as well....
Here's the deal:
Up until a week ago I used this setup:
1. My gmail account has had pop and imap enabled for all mail and it kept the email on the server
2. My mail client on my MBP C2duo on Leopard 10.5.2 was setup to retrieve email from gmail using pop
3. My 1.1.1 iPhone was setup to retrieve email from gmail using pop as well
4. Gmail account was being also synchronised between MBP and iphone through the appropriate tab in itunes.
RESULT: mail would pop to both clients as new mail and I would have to mark it as read in each client. I like that cause there are certain messages I read on my MBP and some others on my iphone.
About a week ago I upgraded my iphone to 1.1.3 and that's when the problems started:
a) It appears that the iphone is now setup to gmail's IMAP by default. So I delete the account and create one manually to work as pop
1. So now I have an iphone setup to retrieve with pop.
2. My MAil client on the MBP is still set to pop
3. Gmail settings remain untouched
PROBLEM: Everything is setup as pop but acts as IMAP ?!!?!
Whichever client gets an email message first that message will not appear on the other client.
Basically if my iphone catches an emai while my MBP is asleep i'll never get it in my inbox on the MBP and vice versa
Please help me out... It's the first time an Apple product makes me feel like a good ol windows user again
FAILED SOLUTIONS:
1. I tried deleting the iphone account and creating it from scratch making sure it's setup correctly
2. I tried disabling IMAP from gmail's settings
3. I tried disabling and re-enabling pop from gmail's settings
4. I tried using gmail's recent mode that forces a download of all recent (30 days) mail
5. I have repaired permissions, rebooted etc etc
Nothing changed
I have now deleted the gmail account from the MBP, re-created it and await while it re-downloads al 6000 messages before I try re-creating the account on the iphone but sth tells me it wont change anything.
Sorry for the extreme length of this post. Any help would be appreciated

But I'm not using IMAP. I never used IMAP and I do not want to use IMAP. The reason being that I know all about the problems you speak of.
I just can't get POP working as it did before the 1.1.3 update. It's really frustrating

Fractional Mail Version?

After upgrading to 10.4.4, my Mail Version reads 2.0.5 (746/746.2).
What does the fraction signify? Does this mean that there are missing components and if so, how can I install them?
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I tried everything that you suggested above with the exception of connecting through dial-up. And the error still persisted.
I procrastinated using dial-up because I did not which to interrupt the service of the rest of the family in order to try that route.
The most amazing thing happened just two days ago. There were no updates to the system. Nothing was changed since I disabled all ports except for the ethernet port. But now it works. I am no longer getting the error.
Since I did nothing to cause this to happen I am not going to mark this answered. I also believe that my respite from this error is temporary. I feel that someone needs to find the cause for this error.
However, Apple may have solved this error in the new version of mail in 10.5...

Error Message re: Mail Version with OSX Version & Mail Won't Open

I have not upgraded my OS and have been with 10.6.8 (on iMac Intel 3.06 GHz) since it came out without any issues. However today, after using sofware update to install: Java for Mac OSX 10.6 Update 10 and Security Update 2012-004 (which I can't see how they would relate), I went to open Mail and got the following error message:
You can't use this version of Mail with this versio of Mac OS X
You tried to open Mail version 4.5 (1084/1085) in : /Applications/Internet/Mail.app (which is where I have had it forever)
it can't be used on this version of Mac OS X. Try opening the version of Mail located in the Applications for on your computer. For more information, click the Help button (which it stated upon clicking that it could not be accessed).
Also, though I don't think this could be related - for about a month now, iTunes keeps asking me to enter my password (apparently not recognizing that i never logged out) - however if I just dismiss the request 2-3 times I can look in the menu and the log out option is available - weird.
I see others have intermittently had this problem and as I said I have not added or upgraded any software and I am not using iCloud. I performed disk repair and permissions, cache cleaning, corrupt preference files etc, using Applejack but it did not resolve the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated - while I can get to my mail through other avenues it's not nearly as convenient. Thanks.

Resolved. Found another thread - had to move my Mail App back into the Applications folder and then re-apply Security update.

I can't find older emails in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT I am able to see them on my Mac Mail version of email. sent emails are OK.

... for the past few months i have noticed that emails in my inbox Yahoo mail account older than a few weeks keep disappearing. i cannot find them in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT i can see them on my Mac Mail version of email. Emails that i have stored into folders in my yahoo account are still there... same with my sent emails... it's just the Inbox emails.. strange, very strange. I don't know how to 'move' the emails from my Mac Mail back to my Yahoo account.

Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look.

Some have reported success simply by reinstalling the update.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
Or download and apply, or reapply, the 10.6.8 Combo update first, then apply the Security Update again.

I'd suggest starting with the simplest of these fixes, so look them over first.

Mail version 4.3 (1081/1078) can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.4" Why?

After installing latest software update, Alert box says: "Mail version 4.3 (1081/1078) can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.4 (Build 10F569) Does any know why or how to fix? Paul

You need to look for more than one copy of the Mail app on your computer. What has resulted is a "hybrid" version that never existed. We have seen this a few times before, and it likely results from something being in the wrong place during the update. Probably the best way to handle is to either find another version on your computer some place, or delete the current version in the Applications folder, install only the Mail app from the installation discs, and immediately apply the latest Combo Update to advance it the proper version.
For an earlier example of this sort of thing, see:

Awesome, thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it when I get home this evening.

Error message: have mail version 4.3 (1081/1084). Can't be used with mac/ox version 10.6.8. Help?

My son deleted the mail application. Tried to to re-install it from download version. Get error message: You have mail version 4.3 (1081/1084). Cannot be used with Mac O/S version 10.6.8. build 10K549. Any suggestions?

Hi ...
The Mail app is not available for downloading.
You need to reinstall the Mail app from your install discs.

Mail version 4.5(1084/1085) can't be use on Mac OS X 10.6.8(Build 10K549) ? --- please help

I just clicked software updated and after installed items that showed me to install - now mail won't work at all. I get the following message, "You have Mail version 4.2 (1084/1085). It can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549). For more information, click the Help button." Help offers three suggested fixes, none of which have worked. What more can I do to fix this problem?
I also check that Mail.app is in the Application folder. So any suggestion would appreciate.
Ps. should I try to re-install the Security Update (2012-004) .... if yes how can I do it?
Many thanks in advance.

Mac mail version 6.5 (1508)

i have noticed that on mac mail version 6.5 (1508), any mails which have been recieved earlier in the inbox and now being replied to the same.
One copy of the sent mail to the recipeint comes back to me as a copy.
where as i have noticed i do not have the option ticked for, every email sent out BCC me 1 copy of the email.
And neither do the rules exist.
however this happens only when i respond back to the emails i already have in my inbox.
if i compose a new email and sent to the reciepeint, i do not recieve this 1 copy back in in my inbox.
have checked my mail server settings for any valid forward on the email box configured, this does not exist.
so therefore i would like to understand if this is some sort of software bug with this version of mail.

Back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it.

Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work

Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work.
Since installing Mountain Lion, Mail seems to be very unresponsive. I have mac mail running on an iMac (which works fine) and a 2012 MacbookPro which is the one having the issues with the Mail app. Both computers are running on Mountian Lion.
When I scroll up in Mail for instance, the frame rate drops to about 5 a second.
When I click on a message it doesn't display it in the preview pane. Which is very annoying!
But I can get around the issue by double clicking on a message and it opens up the message in a new window.
When I search for a message, nothing appears in the results. Even if Im searching for something that is defiently there, eg if I type in my name, you'd think some results would come up. But when I click on something else, the results dispaly for about half a second. Bizarre. Is anyone else having this problem?

what kind of error in browser you are seeing?
is search service application never starterd or its started but cannot crawl?
did you see the timer jobs related to search services and what's their status?
so what about the search results from site collection?
also make sure this service "SharePoint Search Host Controller Service" started on all servers in the farm.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog
In the browser I receive the following error:
The search service app is running, doesn't crawl:
Yes, I can see the timer jobs related to search services, some of them are Succeded, others are Scheduled.
The service SharePoint Search Host Controller Service is started in the first server of the farm, but not in the second
one. When I try to start it, I receive the following error:
Windows could not start the Sharepoint Search Host Controller Service on Local Computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.

You should consider downloading the 10.6.8 combo updater and applying it again.

Mac mail version 4.5(1084/1085) can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8(Build 10K549)

At some stage today I did an update which has killed Mac Mail.
I have read the forums, performed a combo update 10.6.8 with no result, I still get the error
You have Mail version 4.5(1084/1085). It can't be used on OS X Version 10.6.8 ( Build 10K5489)
Any thoughts?

Thanks mate but Software update is indicating that I am all up to date.
I have booted off an older clone and mail was fine. I may have to go for a fresh install of the system but it annoys me to have to do that. It's gotta be something simple!

I am using Mail version 7.2(1874), and I have noticed that only 1 month of messages are kept in the Inbox folder How can I change that? onths worth of messages are kept in the Inbox. I can't figure out how to change that

I am using Mail version 7.2, with OS 10.9.2. Only 1 month of messages are kept in the Inbox folder. How can I change that?

No luck, unfortunetly. I've even restarted the whole computer. They are usually still there, and sometimes, even older messages that I deleted from the drafts folder a long time ago, reappear as well. I've also deleted the account from Mail and set it up from scratch several times hoping that would work, but it failed as well.

Mail Version 2.1 Port 0 timed out

Mail Version: 2.1 (752/752.2)
OS Version: 10.4.7
OS Build: 8J135
Duration of problem: 8 Months
<hr />
Error:
Connection Failed
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "ISPmail" or try again.
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "mail.host.com" on port 0 timed out.
<hr />
Seetings are correct. The port is 110, it is a POP server. nothing has been modified prior to receiving this error.
Since I have done the following:
Cleared the cache
Deleted the prefs
Recreated the account
And done everything I could find in these forums to fix the problem
Nothing has worked!
I am currently experiencing this on two computers. It appears to be an intermittened problem as Mail will eventually download the e-mail.
I do not have PGP installed. So that is not the problem, I do not have a folder named bundles so that is not the problem. I can login to the mail server using terminal, and through the web.
This problem will somtimes appear on my iMap account I have set up with a different provider.
I beleive that there is some kind of software issue with Mail itself.
