New messages not recorded in Sent file.  Can't save to drafts

New MacBook, Tiger. Searched forum without success. Asked other Mac users without success. Please help if you can.
I run my own mail server (postfix, courier imap). Mail using thunderbird and the same settings works flawlessly. When I use Mac's mail program new messages aren't saved to draft periodically as I compose and I get an error about that. New messages get successfully sent; but, are not posted to the sent folder.
The [preferences - accounts - mailbox behavior sent - store messages on server] is checked.
I connect to my mail server over ssh and forward ports 25 and 993 for uber-security reasons. I haven't tested to see if this is effecting this problem.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
RJF

Where do server-stored mailboxes appear in Mail? Do they appear as subfolders of the account’s Inbox maybe?
If server-stored mailboxes appear as subfolders of the account’s Inbox in Mail, this account requires INBOX to be typed in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > IMAP Path Prefix for Mail to manage and display its mailboxes properly. After having done that, Mail should be able to save messages on the server, but maybe in a mailbox different from where you want them to be. To fix that, select the desired folder in Mail and choose the appropriate option from Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For.

  • Albums can not play because original files can not be found

    Suddenly about half of my albums in iTunes will not play.  Error message says tunes will not play because original files can not be found.  The other albums still play fine.

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool have moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you might be able to reconnect iTunes to them using my FindTracks script.

    Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name.  Make sure the settings there are correct.

  • I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video.  When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?

    I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video.  When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?  I edit the presentation depending on the audience to which I am presenting.

    If you add a new  slide with just a text box (therefore a very small amount of data),  to an existing presentation then save,  Keynote will only save the new content to the file,  it wont save  pre-existing content as its already included in the file.
    The time  taken to "save" will be very much shorter than a "save as" when all of the existing content is saved again.

  • How can you save a draft SMS on X3-02 ?

    How can you save a draft SMS on X3-02 ? 
    Can't seem to find an option to do this  ...  Lost message typed half way  when I got out of the editor to check the calendar.
    Am I missing something or has Nokians obsoleted this function on the latest S40 platform ?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi all,
    Like sudude here pointed out that's one way of leaving text as "draft" to message editor. Or you can also select Options > More > Exit editor to do the same. And, next time when you select Create message that previous text should be there as it was left.
    But there is also another option to start writing SMS's - with Notes application. Select Menu > Apps > Notes. Write a note and save it. Then for that note select Options > Send note > Send as message. Now your note is copied to message editor and you can send it or further edit and then send. Neat thing here is that when you use Notes application, text can be saved for later editing or use.

  • Can packaging save as draft?

    Hi Develope exports,
       My B1 Ver. 2007B(PL13). I fond that till this version, Packaging can't save as draft.
       I create an A/R Invoice and save it as draft ,with a  Packaging appended.  When I open the Invoice draft, right click and reopen packaging form, it shows nothing.  I must have to refill all the packing details.
      Even on Delivery Document, the packaging can't save as draft.
       It doesn't make sense . Will it be fix up by next PL?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    You would be able to save a sales order as draft only while the add button is active that is you haven't added the sales order. Once you have added a sales order in the system, the save as draft button would be disabled. However, as you say that you have duplicated the sales order, before adding, you should be abe to save tat order as draft. if this is not the case, i think you need to raise a ticket to sap. Try searchin for SAP Notes on the same.
    Thanks,

  • Mail 4.1,not playing "new message" sound, and some sent mail not in outBox

    For some reason, no "new message" sound is being played (has been like this for a few weeks), and some (~1/10) sent mail does not show up in the sent box (been like this for a long time).
    And yes, preferences are set to "play new messages sound"
    Any ideas?

    I would guess that's an IMAP account, go into mail preferences and select advanced tab for that account and uncheck use IDLE command and the new mail sound should work.
    Not sure about the sent mail problem.

  • Sent Mail not found in sent file

    This started a few weeks ago.   Sometimes when I send a new message,  it does not show up in my sent file, leaving me wondering if it was sent at all,  and preventing me from reviewing the email too. 
    I looked in preferences for MAIL  and I do not see a way this could be a  choice that I somehow allowed.  I do have most of my sent file emails,  just occasionally don't have all of them.   One did go through,  the recipient answered back.
    I have the Snow Leopard limited version of iCloud and use the MAIL  on iMac most of the time.  The disappearing sent emails are the same in both locations.
    Can anyone help me with this? 
    Thanks

    Hi Ric,
    I have the exact same problem - I do also have two "sent" folders.
    It's like this: when I send from my web-mail the sent mails is in "sent folder 1" - when I send from the application Mail the sent mails ends up in "Sent folder 2"

  • Append Signature only for **new** messages - not for replies???

    I have a Palm Centro (great device - my first "smart phone" ) and am using Palm's e-mail application to e-mail through my Yahoo account. The issue I have is this: When I create a **new** message my signature is appended to the e-mail. When I **reply** to a message my signature does NOT get appended. Any way to have the signature always be appended to my outgoing e-mails? It seems that Blackberry and iPhone do this just fine. I want people to know whenever a message is sent from my Centro as it will be short and most likely have errors in the text.
    Thanks in advance,
    Steve
    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    The Sprint Centro comes with two email applications, VersaMail (which is the "Email" icon), and Sprint Mobile Mail (the "Getmail" icon).  I don't know which of these applications comes set as the default email application for the Email button on front of the Centro, so you can make sure you are using VersaMail by going into the Application launcher screen and selecting the Email icon.
    Assuming you have an email account set up, while in that account open the Menu, select Options > Preferences > Signature.  Check the box to attach your signature, create whatever signature you want, and tap OK.
    [Oh, and I have merged your latest post into this existing thread.]

  • Sent messages not saved in sent mailbox

    Lately some iCloud sent messages are not saved in the sent mailbox.  this is an intermitant problem.  sometimes msgs go to the outbox even though mail is on line; when they are eventually sent sometimes they do not make it to the sent mailbox.  I call the recipient and the msg has actually been received.  The lost messages do not appear in iCloud.  Rebuild does not help.  any suggestions?

    Tks for your answer. I have a .Mac account and in already try in Preferences-Accounts- and I only see three tabs: " Account Information ", " Mailboxes Behaivor " and " Advanced ". I don´t see the " Special Mailboxes " tab that you mention and I have also read about it. In Mailboxes Behaivor I can choose the option " Store sent messages on the server " and the Delete sent messages option is in " Never". If I choose not to Store sent messages on the server, nothing seems to happen. I hope you can help me with this information and I want to thank you again

  • New messages not appearing in the INbox, only in 'All Mails'

    Hi,
    I'm using Gmail and iPhone 4.2.1. I'm managing gmail on the iphone using the Google Mail imap account.
    When my browser is open, new messages are delivered to the INbox, as well as to my 'All Mail' folder, which is normal behaviour. When I feth gmail on the iPhone, same thing: I see the messages in both folders.
    But, when my browser isn't open and I fetch new messages on the iPhone first, then these new messages are only stored in the "All Mail" folder and not in the INbox? Later, when I check in my browser, same thing: the fetched messages are missing from the INbox folder, and thus, I have a gap in the INbox.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks!

  • Message not showing full conversation and can't see incoming messages

    I just started having a problem with "Messages" on my iPod Touch 4G.  When I click to see a conversation, I have to scroll way down to see it...but can only see part of it.  And all conversations are the same, so I have lost conversations with others as they have been replaced by this one particular conversation.
    In addition, I get the pop-up when a new message has come in, but when I go into "Messages" to read the full thing, it's not there.  Any ideas?

    If you did an OS reinstall did the problem Go away ?
    If so what is the issue as nothing you do now is going to change things ?
