New gmail messages do not appear in Mail 5 inbox

I have a new Imac and trying to setup email accounts. My Hotmail account has no issues. My gmail account is struggling to put the new messages in the Inbox. The messages appear in the "all mail" down below.
Sometimes the messages will appear in the Inbox and then disappear. The next time I open Mail, the spinning marker will be beside the gmail inbox icon and then not load any messages in the inbox.
Any suggestions?

I assume you are referring to folders you created other than main mailboxes.
Did you checked the Label Section in settings at the gmail site and the box to show in IMAP is checked.
Is IMAP and not POP is enabled in the Forwarding and POP section.
Repair permissions with disk utility and restart the computer.
If it isn't working now, try deleting one of the accounts and add it back in. When you add it back, make sure it is set as IMAP.
You could also create a new user for testing. Log into the new user and create the accounts there. Whether or not it works there will tell us whether or not it is a user account problem or not.

Incoming Gmail does not appear in Mail Inbox

Since installing Lion, none of my Gmail messages appear in the Mail Inbox at the top of the sidebar. I retrieve my mail using IMAP. Further down in the sidebar, there is a Gmail folder and under that another folder that says, "All Mail." My incoming messages are appearing in here, along with all the spam, messages that are filtered, etc. How do I get them back into the Mail Inbox?

It seems to have resolved the problem on its own.

Why are some inbox messages not appearing in Mail on multiple macs and other devices?

My partner and I have an iMac at home and one at work. We also have two iPhones and two iPads. We only have a couple email accounts each and two for work set up on all six Mail applications. For some reason inbox messages are not appearing consistantly on all six devices. For example, I can have a new message from my Mom, see it at home and on my iPhone, but not on the iMac at work.
Also, some messages I'd like deleted off my work iMac since they're personal, but I'd like them kept on my home iMac and iPhone. Is this possible? Is it possible to delete a message on one and have it deleted on all others?

What type of email accounts are they? IMAP or POP.
IMAP leaves messages on the server so you can get them from everywhere.
With POP, messages are downloaded to your client and then removed from the server, depending on your settings.
The iDevice setup for POP doesn't remove them from the server.
I think Mail's default setup for POP is to remove immediately.
If they are POP accounts, you can set Mail's preferences to leave messages on the server for a period of time so that you can retrieve them on multiple clients.

Have iMac with IMAP email, 3rd party. Use a rule to sort emails into various boxes. One box does not appear on Mail in new iPhone 5C. Emails sorted into that box are also missing.

In which this just gets weirder and weirder...
I logged onto iCloud.com, signed into my account and created a rule there that emails from my husband's address should be allowed into the inbox. I sent another test msg from him to me and got the New Mail notification sound, the new mail showed up but in a flash disappeared. This happened in the space of about 3 seconds.
Messages from his email address are not even showing up in the Trash folder. WTH?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Several times my Sent message does not appear in Sent Mailbox

I have had many instances when sending messages (usually replies to messages in my Inbox) where they appear in the Mail Activity box and then following the "sent" sound, fail to appear in the Sent mailbox. When clicking on the Reply arrow I get the message "Mail was unable to find your response to the message “Re: Test”. You may have deleted the message." I have tried sending test messages and they seem to work OK. However over the last two days at least three replies to messages have disappeared in this way. The messages do not appear in my MobileMe sent box either. Using my non MobileMe address seems to work OK with the message appearing in the Sent Mailbox. Any ideas?

From reports on this site, Yahoo mail doesn't work reliably with Mail. The following steps may help.
Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

IMAP email not appearing in Mail

Background: I have an IMAP email account that's over a decade old. It's going away soon so I'm trying to figure out how to get a complete local copy of all that email. There are a total of around 100 folders with anywhere from 5 to over 2000 emails in each folder.
The problem: there's email on the server that isn't showing up in Mail. For instance one folder (according to the webmail interface) has 771 messages. Mail says that folder has 700 messages. Looking at the webmail interface I can easily find several of the 71 emails that are not appearing in Mail. In Mail, if I select the folder and "Get Account Info" and look at the Quotas section, it lists the correct number of email messages (771). If I rebuild the folder, as it's being rebuilt the blue progress bar at the bottom left of Mail says there are 771 incoming messages. But when it's done, I can only see 700.
I just double checked on a second computer (MacBook Pro, also latest 10.7 version & Mail) and it's the same there, it only sees 700 messages.
Now, repeat this times the roughly 100 folders . . .
What's going on here? Why isn't Mail downloading or displaying these emails?

I just looked in the User/Library/Mail/V2 folder, and tracked down this folder. Digging down several levels into the files for this account and folder I found two sub-folders called "Messages" which contained a total of 774 (mostly) .emlx files. In three cases there were a pair of files with the same number, one with an .emlxpart extension and the other with a partial.emlx extension -- if I assume that pair corresponds to the same email, this it appears there are 771 messages on local disk. And Mail refuses to display 71 of them?
I'm doing a backup with MailSteward to see what it makes of these files.

Notes from iPhone appear in Mail inboxes

This is a new behavior that I don't understand. Notes appear in the inboxes of both of my e-mail addresses, and in the reminders>notes box. If I delete them from anywhere, they disappear from my phone on the next sync. What changed, and how do I keep my notes on my phone and back them up on my computer without having them in my face all the time? Any ideas? Thanks for your help!

Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts.
Under the Mailboxes Behaviors tab for the account preferences for each account, do you have show notes in Inbox selected?

2. Create a new Outlook profile that uses Cached Exchange Mode.
3. Start Outlook 2010 with this new profile.
4. In the ribbon click Send / Receive, click

Gmail Messages Do Not Load Properly in FF 8.01

After upgrading FF, Gmail messages do not load. Although I can check email and view the message headers fine. The message does come up, theres just no text in the message body. I do not get a security certificate warning but I suspect it has something to do with that and no problems with IE or Chrome.

I uninstalled the bitly addon and now messages are loading fine
