Prevent incoming messages in Mail App

I'm not very fond of using the integrated mail app in mavericks. However I love how I am able to compose a message simply by clicking someones email on a website. But my question is, how can I turn off incoming messages from being stored in my mailbox? I would like the app to function where there are no incoming messages or junk in the mail app. The version is a 7.3 and my mac is running on mavericks 10.9.3

If I understand you correctly, you would like to handle your mail directly on the remote server? That is not possible from Mail.app. There may be other Mail clients that offer this option or you could simply handle your Mail with your web browser.

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    From the application's menu bar, select
    File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Boot in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

  • I need a multiple message voice mail app for Iphone 4S that also provides an auto-attendant, e.g the caller can dial 1 for one of business's or 2 for the other. Each of these options will need to have a different voice mail greeting. Help please?

    There are no alternative voicemail apps - the core functionality of the phone can not be replaced.
    You'll have to look for an external service, that can then forward calls for each caller onto the correct phone.
    At our business we use Voipfone.co.uk which allows multiple phone lines to come into one VOIP account.

  • Incoming messages hang Mail

    Software:  Yosemite 10.10.2 (14C1514), Mail 8.2 (2070.6)
    Problem: Certain incoming Mail messages cause peculiar behavior of the Mail application, as follows:
    Message is opened. If scrolling down is attempted, or sometimes if just left open for a few seconds, the message content disappears, followed by the spinning rainbow. Computer fans begin to speed up. If the computer is restarted and Mail is reopened, the problem is 100% repeatable.
    The above applies only to certain messages, and others can be read with no problem. I have narrowed the sources of this problem to two or three of my correspondents and have sent them notice. Could they have viruses on their computers that are causing this?
    Thanks for reading!

    Thanks, Old Toad. Downloaded and ran Etrecheck. Here are the results:
    Problem description:
    Yosemite 10.10.2 and Mail 8.2
    Odd behavior in Mail app when some messages are received (but not most).
    Opening certain messages causes them to disappear after a short time, and a spinning rainbow appears. If computer is re-started and the same message is re-opened, the same thing happens again.

  • Excessive Incoming Messages in Mail configured to Yahoo Mail

    From a Mac newby...
    Each time I open Mail on my new Mac Mini (OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3), Mail Activity shows thousands of incoming messages arriving at a rate of roughly 40 per minute. But the only emails going into my inbox are "legitimate" emails from friends and customers.
    I've configured Mail to use Yahoo Mail (although I've also set up and enabled an iCloud account which I don't use). Are those thousands of incoming messages in fact old Yahoo Mail messages that have to load onto Mail each time I open it?
    Whatever they are, is this avoidable? I don't seem to be losing any messages, but it slows the computer down for quite a while, and just doesn't "feel right".
    If this is an issue inherent to Yahoo Mail on a Mac, I will consider using a different main address. What sort of address is least likely to be problematic with Mail software? Changing my main email address is a big deal and I wouldn't want to have to do it again in the near future.
    P.S. Would prefer answers that are understandable to, say, an unusually bright chimp

    If I understand you correctly, you would like to handle your mail directly on the remote server? That is not possible from Mail.app. There may be other Mail clients that offer this option or you could simply handle your Mail with your web browser.

  • How to use single key to color a message in Mail.app?

    I would like to be able to color code a message's line in the main message summary window by pressing only a single key. In thunderbird, this is accomplished by pressing 1 to 5, each corresponding to a different color.
    Mail.app allows coloring a message, to my knowledge, only by bringing up colors chooser and then selecting a color (by default in a inprecise color wheel).
    How do a make "hot keys" for specific colors?
    thanks

    To answer my own question: Leopard and Mail.app don't suport this directly.
    What works is using Fastscripts Lite to bind application-specific hot keys to some simple applescripts.
    Here is one such script, modeled on an Apple sample script:
    using terms from application "Mail"
    tell application "Mail"
    set selectedMessages to selection
    set selectionCount to (count of selectedMessages)
    repeat with messageNumber from 1 to selectionCount
    set theMessage to item messageNumber of selectedMessages
    set background color of theMessage to green
    end repeat
    end tell
    end using terms from

  • Incoming messages - E-Mail Alerts for Application Errors?

    Dear C4C Community,
    We are integrating C4C and our SAP ERP. Sometimes the business partner replication is not working due to unmapped entries or due to other reasons. Currently we are checking the web service message monitor manually for incoming message with status "Application Error".
    Is there any way to setup an automatic e-mail alert when new incoming message errors appear? I do not like the manual monitoring process.
    Looking forward to your feedback.

  • How to archive a message in mail app and delete in imap gmail

    I've been searching the forums before asking this but have failed to find the answer.
    I'd like to, if possible, use the archive function in my mail app on iMac to archive and store messages locally. At the same time I'd like to delete those messages from the Gmail servers so that my archived messages only sit on my iMac.
    I've tried but Gmail creates an [IMAP]/Archive folder with the messages that I've archived on my mac.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance

    Thankyou
    Yes, I tried that already and it successfully stores the email locally, "On my Mac", however, the email remains within Gmail's All mail folder and is therefore not removed from Google's servers.
    Is it possible to achieve this without having to go into Gmail and separately deleting the mail from All mail?
    Would like to avoid the duplication if possible.
    Thanks

  • 'Unable to move message' iOS7 mail app

    Everytime i try to delete email(s) on the standard apple mail app on my iPhone 4s the process wont complete saying 'Unable to move message'. i have tried deleting and re adding the account, rebooting my phone syncing with iTunes and nothing seems to stop the message appearing. I know the error doesn't lie with the account as i can send emails from the outlook website and complete the processes on there. I don't know what else to do now...

    Hi Peter,
    since its now January 2010, I sure hope you have resolved this issue! I had the same problem after I had to restore my iphone G3. Anyway, played around a bit and was able to fix by changing the "deleted mailbox" behavior...to use the trash on the server vs on "my iphone"
    here it is:
    settings/mail,contacts/accounts (choose yours)/advanced/deleted mailbox/
    then click the trash bin on the server.
    this should also work for your sent mail behavior.
    hope this helps!

  • Con't. Serious error message re Mail.app w/respect to Mail Preferences not opening...

    Hi all (& Linc)
    In an earlier thread,
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/25906027#25906027
    I prematurely reported a problem with Mail.app prefs not opening as being solved, when it turns out it hasn't been. The freezing of Mail.app upon invocation of Mail Prefs reintroduced itself, both with a suspected culptrit (the great DPS by Bongiovi) turned on and off and Quit Then, without any noticeable input, Mail.app suddenly righted itself and works as normal. I ran a test in Console and saw this foreboding log readout. It may still involve DPS. I'm reporting this same to the savvy engineers at Bongiovi, as well. What's to be done? I may be stumped, but I'm not giving up...
    All best,
    David

  • Phantom GMail messages in mail.app

    Here's my situation:
    At one time I decided it would be lovely to point mail.app at my GMail account. I changed my mind about this pretty quickly (once I figured out that it was going to take approximately 11 years to download all of my gmail messages, since I rarely delete anything from gmail).
    The "phantom messages" I reference in the subject line are these: references to gmail messages that do not exist on my machine. During the normal course of using mail, I don't ever see them, but they turn up by the thousands when I search for messages or when I create a Smart Mailbox. I'm starting to suspect that they may be implicated in some of the mail slowness that I have been experiencing, in particular slowness of Smart Mailboxes (which, ideally, I would like to use to organize my RSS feeds).
    Here's what it looks like:
    The little "Show in mailbox" text that looks like it ought to be a link is nothing - can't click it, can't highlight it, nada.
    I have recently rebuilt ALL of my .plist files in an attempt to address the "mail won't quit" problem (the one that's NOT related to notes or mobile me - seems to have worked, by the way), so I know that's not going to solve the problem. When I look at /Library/Mail, there is no evidence of a GMail mailbox anywhere.
    So. Does anybody know how I can get rid of these? There are literally tens of thousands of them - one search turns up over 16000 phantom messages. I can delete them, which makes them not show up in searches anymore. Interestingly, when I delete them they do NOT show up in my Trash... they simply vanish. So I could manually delete them all, but that would take a really long time.

    Bump... anybody have any ideas on this one?

  • MAIL-more .emlx files in Library than messages in Mail.app

    I have seen that the number of messages .emlx in several Folders and subfolders of my Library/Mail/V2/..... is much more than the actual number of Mails to be seen in the different Folders of Mail.app.   I keep only a limited number of Mails (last few weeks) so it is easy to see the difference; many .emlx go back to 2011.
    My Mail in both my iMac and MacBookPro are the result of several migrations from 2005 from 3 MBP and 2 iMac, and they all sync with iCloud. During the time I changed one of the mail accounts from POP to IMAP.  Until about 2010 I had a POP account and I used to copy tha Mail folder from one Mac to another to keep trace of the sent mail which was not possible to sync due to POP account.  I have basically 2 accounts one iCloud and one IMAP.
    I have no problem at all on my Macs and my iPhone which Mail but I whould like to know if this left stuff could be cleaned in some way.
    The folder structure is complex.
    Thanks for any suggestion.

    Quit Mail.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the text on the line below 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. 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. If you get a warning that the file is in use when you try to empty the Trash, log out and log back in.

  • Can the Date of the messages in Mail.app all appear as "date_sent"?

    I have an IMAP mail account, and it has been added into the Mail.app on my Mac (OS X Yosemite 10.10.2).
    As I known, a mail message has three "time stamps", which are date_sent, date_received, and date_internal.
    The first two time stamps(date_sent & date_received) are stored in the source of the mail message,
    and the last one(date_internal) is stored on the mail server.
    This date_internal is the time when this mail message is received on the server for the first time.
    Normally, date_received and date_internal are the same or very close to each other.
    However, when some old mail messages are synced back to the mail server, these two time stamps are quite different.
    For example, I miss-deleted some mail messages on the server, and I have the backup files on my Mac, so I can sync these messages back to the mail server through IMAP protocol.
    In the situation above, the date_received is still the origin received time because it is always stored in the source of the mail message, while the date_internal then becomes the time when I sync this mail message.
    Unfortunitly, Mai.app uses the date_internal as the default Date appearing in the list, not the date_received, not the date_sent, and even no settings about this can be found.
    Can the Mail.app shows the date_received instead of the date_internal in my mail list? Thank you so much!
    Btw, I have tried the AppleScript to change the dateReceived element, but the system said my operation is not allowed.

    Maybe I'm missing something...?
    In Mail.app -> View -> Columns you can add various columns to the view.
    Is that not what you want?

  • Snooze email messages in Mail.app

    What I am missing is a Mail.app plugin that allows me to snooze messages (just like it is possible with the Mailbox app for iPhone).
    Functionality:
    - I would like to be able to define a snooze period for a message. There should be user-definable presets and the option to exactly specify date and time).
    - Snoozed messages should be moved to a folder "Later".
    - They should be moved back from the "Later" folder to the Inbox when they are due.
    - The extension should work with all email accounts.

    Thanks for the replies. But that link does not solve the problem: it just provides workarounds.
    I would like to know if there is any way to edit a message that has been received in my mail.app program.
    As for any legal issues, I find them to be not very compelling. Although it is true that courts now admit emails into evidence as if they were any other document, that does not suggest that they should not be modifiable. That courts admit such electronic documents into evidence certainly imposes no burden on me, the email receiver, to maintain the email's original format. Moreover, there is nothing improper about making programs or add-ons that facilitate the making of such changes in emails unless and until Congress decides to take up the issue and make it a crime to modify received emails.
    Since that has not happened, and is unlikely to in the near future, I would still love it if someone could provide either instructions or some mail.app extension that allows one to edit received emails.
    Thanks for any help! - M.

  • Edit Email Messages in Mail.app

    Does anyone know a way to edit an email message already received in mail.app? I found this to be a useful feature of Eudora and even Outlook, but it doesn't seem to be in Mail.app.
    Thanks for any help. - M.
