No mail date and now no mail
About a week ago the date disappeared on my incoming mail . Today i stopped getting mail. I downloaded 10.4.11 tiger software update and installed it but that didn't help. i can't find mail as an app to reinstall if that is the problem. Can anybody help me out with this.
Is it possible to find the mac mail app somewhere to reinstall.
Yes, that's why I included this & everything after it in my above post...
Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4
But if those files/folders don't exist, I think you have bigger problems looming, I'd do this first...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.

Mail: outgoing and now incoming mail server rejects password
Hello all. Hope you can help with this one.
I was using Mail as normal yesterday. I use the same incoming mail server and SMTP server (my university's Exchange server). Then sending mail suddenly failed. The error message I get is:
The SMTP server “exch.wlv.ac.uk” rejected the password for user “(null)”
Enter your password again or cancel.
The settings are port 995 for outgoing mail, using SSL and requiring password authentication.
I've verified my settings and passwords with IT support. They say they haven't altered anything, and nor have I.
I've tried Connection Doctor: it says Mail connected with the exch. server without any problems. However, under Account Information, the server says (offline).
I've changed ports (to 25 and 587): no success.
I've deleted my password from Keychain and Mail plist and reentered it. No success.
I've verified and repaired permissions.
I'm now not getting incoming mail either: the error message is
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Staff POP” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to host exch.wlv.ac.uk on port 25 failed.
I can send and receive using web-based OWA.
Is there anything else I can do, or is it a server problem?
Thanks,
AidanMay be no help to you Aidan except comfort in numbers. Mail has started behaving erratically for me in the past week. My inbox and account mail has disappeared and my accounts keep being rejected by the webmail host similar to your problem; password rejected etc. Then Mail closes abruptly telling me there's a problem and offering to send a report to Apple. Mail is version 4.5 and the iMac is 10.6.8. Help!

Mail Crashed and now won't relaunch
I rebooted my MacBook Intel 2GHz Core 2 Duo running Leopard 10.5.1 and now my mail application will not launch. It opens and then immediately crashes and when you hit relaunch it just crashes immediately. When you reset and relaunch it still crashes.
According to the crash report it is crashing at Thread 6 (see below).
Any thoughts?

cr2: 0x146d5000i would suggest you try a few things in order:
1) did you create to dos in mail by any chance? and if so are they showing up in ical? if so then go to ical and delete these to dos - if these to dos were created in ical, then there is no need to delete them. (when a to do is created in mail, it shows up in ical in a calendar under the email account name as a header.) after deleting the to dos, try to launch mail again
2) do you have plug ins installed with mail by any chance? look at homefolder/library/mail/bundles and disable/get rid of any. launch mail, see if that helps.
3) locate the file com.apple.mail.plist in homefolder/library/preferences, trash it, launch mail again. note that upon launching mail again, that is successfully, then you will have to recreate your account(s).
hope this helps -
I have two computers one IMac 10.5.8 one MacBookPro 10.6.8. Updated the MacBookPro 10.6.8 and now my mail has disappeared on that computer - do I sync account to get all my mail content back onto the MacBookPro?
You can do it. This article from Macworld will be helpful to you:

I recommend the "brute-force" method.
Just make sure you have your data backed up properly! -

I uploaded to Maverick and now my mail always cc's me on every email I send out. I have checked Preferences and the Composing Automatically CC button is unclicked. How can I stop this?
Sounds like your phone has the jitters.
This is sometimes caused when a DLL fle is missing when you restore, so the ipsw pacakge wasn't installed corectly.
You could back up and restore, but if it doesn't help go to http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and then download the same firmware your on.
Open up iTunes and hold Shift+Restore and select that firmware, you can't use anoy ther firmwares though.
Hope this helped -
My Mom typed in the wrong email address and now her mail is locked. It states that it can't be sent because the server rejected one of the recipient's addresses. The message has been placed in your Outbox. Now when I go to the outbox I can not access it. It is like it's locked. She has and IPad version 1. Any help would be appreciated.
This may be of help.

If you can't use the mail app now - if it is frozen - quit the app and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close mail by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down onthe mail app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesnt help try resetting the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -

I can copy everything else in the header for pasting in another application.
But not the date and time which is absolutely vital.
