Sent mail not showing in sent box

The last few days emails that I send through my Yahoo account seem to sit in the drafts folder after I hit send and not move over to the sent folder. Lately they are not appearing in either box, yet the recipients are receiving the mail.
Sometimes the emails just stay in drafts no matter what I do or how many times I resend. And yes, the recipients are receiving multiple copies.
If anyoe has experienced this or can offer assistance I would appreciate it much.
Thank you,

Thank for the tip. the server appears to match and it is in fact online.
Still having the same issues. I appreciate your help.
Anyone else have a suggestion?

ICloud mail not showing up as "box" on iPhone mail list

I have a me.com address. I have added it as an account on my iPhone. I can log in successfully on my desktop to iCloud to retrieve my mail. I CANNOT however, see a mailbox labeled iCloud in my iOS mail on my iPhone. Can anyone help me figure this out? I've restarted the phone over and over. I shut off Mail and turned it back on several times as well. Please help.
Thanks!

Hi Winston,
Let me clarify...sorry about that. When I go to Settings --> iCloud --> Under my Account name [email protected] there is a list of "Mail, contacts, Calendars, etc" with on/off toggles, I switched Mail to off and then back on again, in hopes that this would reset itself or something. When I return to my Mail application, iCloud doesn't show as one of my Accounts, only my personal Yahoo and my work Exchange account. I cannot figure out why my iCloud mail does not show up there, even though I am logged in under iCloud and i can access it on my desktop.
I appreciate the help.

Mail not showing new messages on 10.8.3

Mail not showing new messages on 10.8.3, but messages show just fine on iPhone. Nothing changed to make this happen, not sure where to start. Thanks.

Back up all data.
Select the problem mailbox in the mailbox list, then select
Mailbox ▹ Rebuild
from the menu bar.

Apple mail not showing all the messages?

In Apple mail, for my icloud account, I have some mailboxes which show the wrong number of messages, it shows too few.
As an example, a mailbox contains 150 messages, but apple mail reports there are only 146.
I rebuilt the mailbox and let apple mail do its thing. In the activity window I can see there are 150 messages. Yet, once apple mail has finished rebuilding the mailbox, it still tells me there are 146 messages. What's going wrong? Why would apple mail not show all the messages while in the activity window it clearly shows it knows there are 150?

Solved!
This was too weird to be real. Apple mail does not show messages it believes to be duplicates, and buy, does it make big mistakes in deciding what are duplicate messages and what not! Some of my mailboxes had over 100 "duplicates" not showing according to apple mail.
I found a solution thanks to this topic:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
does yield an error in 10.8.2 ( Domain (com.apple.mail) not found. Defaults have not been changed. )
defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
Does work brilliantly though!

SMTP sent mail not showing up in sent mail folder

Hello,
Setup:
Exchange 2010 SP1
Outlook 2010
C# for sending mail, or Pentaho Kettle
Not really sure how to explain, but I have the following scenario:
Automatic programs send email using credentials (an active username / password on the domain. account linked to a mail box).
Mail gets sent.
Mail does not show up in the sent mail folder of the account
I was wondering if there was a parameter on the Exchange server to configure so that the email sent via SMTP would show up in the sent mail box of the account.
Regards,

Sent mail not showing in folder

Greetings,
Our Mac has three email accounts. For the last two days, one of the accounts does not show sent mail in the sent folder. The other two accounts are working properly. I have reviewed the MobileMe settings and the Preferences on Mac Mail and can't find the issue.
The accounts are all MobileMe (IMAP) accounts and accessed via iPad, iPhone and Mac, but no device is showing sent mail since Monday.
Any suggestions?

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 anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. 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 damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Mail not showing attachments in my Sent Mail list

I have the paperclip icon in my menu bar so I can easily see emails with attachments but in Lion they are not showing at all. Old mails BEFORE I upgraded to Lion show attachments. Has anyone sorted this issue?

Have found a solution that works: see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3308790?start=0&tstart=0
See below:

Re: Upgraded to Lion and now Mail does not show attachments in the Send Box (for new messages only).
Jan 5, 2012 4:50 PM (in response to BlairWare)
OK, I have no idea why, but the following worked.
I created a rule in the Preferences pane:
CONDITIONS
     sender is me
     attachment contains "." (every file does)
RULE
     set color to (anything)
The rule worked.
Furthermore, the paperclips appeared!!!

Mail not showing in mail box

For three days, I was not receiving any email. I talked to my email provider and they found that my email was being forwarded to another unknown account. I called that email provider and learned that the email address supposedly receiving my emails has not been in service since 2004. My email provider has stopped forwarding my email to the bogus account. I have created my own gmail account and now have my email fowarded to the new gmail and have deleted my old account from my mac. HOWEVER, I now see email activity in the lower left corner of the mail window saying messages are being sent and received--in large numbers, but they are not showing up anywhere on my mac. When I compare what I am receiving in my mac mail account to what is on the gmail server, they all match up. Why I am getting this activity? Where would it be coming from?

Perhaps you can tell me how to restore my old emails from my old email account.
If you moved your backup folder for that account (not the entire Mail folder) into the Home/Library/Mail folder, the next thing you need to do is launch Mail and setup that Gmail account again. But before you can do that, you need to login to the Gmail web interface and change your password to something secure (something that cannot be guessed, preferably at least 27 characters long and using a string of random characters). I use 1Password to generate these, but you could also use LastPass, which is free.
If you don't use one of those password managers, copy the new password, paste it into a Sticky Note or TextEdit and save it.
After you've done that, then setup the Gmail account in Mail again, and after you've done that, Mail will import the existing messages again, and sync them with Gmail.
Where do you think the password was stolen from? The email server or my computer?
It wasn't stolen at all; it was just too easy to guess using standard hacking tools. That's why you have to use secure passwords that can't be guessed.

E-mail addresses in Apple Mail not showing up in Apple Contacts (iCloud All Contacts)

I've been going though my contacts in the Apple Contacts app, which I have set up to use iCloud, deleting old contacts and cleaning up messy ones. And I've noticed there are a lot of e-mail addresses that I have in Apple Mail - I just start to type a few letters in the To: field and they come up - that are nowhere to be seen in the Contacts app.
Shouldn't these be in my Contacts app? Where else would these contacts be stored? And is there a way to sync them into my iCloud All Contacts or do I have to manually track each one down and add it in the Contacts app?
Quick edit to add: I've also now noticed that the same applies on my iPhone. E-mail addresses appear in iOS Mail that are not in my iOS Contacts app (I've performed a search to be doubly sure). Where do these contacts live and why are they not in my Contacts apps?

I do have both of those, but only iCloud shows up in my Contacts sidebar, and addresses are being sent there so I guess it's the default. Funny how this stuff is all so murky.
Not murky at all:
And as the On My Mac account does not show then it is empty. (It's visible if it is the default or if it has any content)
I haven't come across your last point, (no email address) so no help there I'm afraid.

Inbox mail not showing up.

I just set up a iMac. Having a problem with mail.
My iphone is not showing my mail that is in my inbox on the imac. All other mailboxes have the mail in it. I tested by sending a email to my iphone from the imac. It shows up. However, Mail sent from the imac is sent from "first name Last name" Mail sent from my iphone is sent from "apple ID"
Did I set up the imac mail incorrectly?

Mail uses files called “Envelope Index files” to keep track of messages in your local mailboxes.
Quit Mail.
Locate your Mail folder in your User's Library. Your home Library folder is hidden by default. To display it, choose Finder > “Go to Folder” and then enter “~/Library.”
Delete any file that begins with “Envelope Index,” in ~/Library/Mail/MailData
Open Mail
Mail creates new Envelope Index files. This process may take a few minutes, depending on how many messages Mail is reindexing.

Mail not showing up

I have apples products at home and a pc at the office. When I send mail on my pc, it does not show up in my sent folders on my apple devices. Is there a way to do that? Does iCloud only work when things are done on apple products?
Thanks!

Then it is nothing to do with iCloud, the problem (and help for it) lies elsewhere, start with Google and Yahoo.
You are going to need to change the mapping of the sent folder, try Settings (in Gmail) and I have no clue regarding Yahoo.

Mail not showing new account

Hi there!
I have added a new account (IMAP) and successfully configured it with an automatic installer provided by the hosting service.
I can see the new account only in the inbox folder, but not in the other folders (Sent, Trash, Junk, Drafts).
How can I have it comparing in the other folders?
Thank you for your reply.
Juan Carlos

I would expect the new address to show up in those boxes when you have made a draft, put something in the trash or sent something from the new address.
With one address those boxes do not show until something is in them.
Hope that is clear enough.

Mail not showing IN or OUT messages

hello
Suddenly my mail app does not show any messages INBOX or SENT or anything else for that matter.
the wheel keeps runing all night with no old or new messages displayed.
even the progress bar of incoming messages gets stuck at 70% progress
Please help
thank you

I'm having the same issue. No emails after April 21 are showing in the inbox. If I go to the get account info page you can see the emails and it even says they are downloaded, but they are not showing up in the inbox.
Any suggestions?

Mail not showing embedded images

This problem has been bugging me for a while.
I am getting some emails (from my company communications) that are incorrectly formatted by Mail. I see big boxes labeled "Missing Plug-in". The rest of the text is there, but those big boxes make the mail hard to read.
So today I decided to look a bit deeper into the problem. I brought it down to the presence of image tags that call for embedded images (included as attachments) using the "cid:" protocol. For example:
<img src="cid:[email protected]" alt="Find" border="0">
Is this a restriction in mail (I am running mail 6.1 on Mountain Lion). Or is there some config parameter I need to tweek to enable support for embedded images ?
Thunderbird has no problem. I also did a quick check with Google Mail and Yahoo Mail, and neither show the images. But they just show nothing, so the resulting email is still readable. Mac OSX Mail shows big boxes with the "Missing Plug-in" note. I would be happy if Mail just ignored the images.
I should point out that mail on iPhone and iPad work fine (they display the images).
Albert

Try this - worked for me...
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20652845#20652845
If that doesn't link properly, here's the original solution, cut and pasted:
"MailPluginFix"
From the Code2K:Labs site: http://code2k.net/products/mailpluginfix/
From MacUpdate: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/37804/mailpluginfix
Just download the fix and double-click it - next time you open mail, you'll see your attachments.

Photos not showing, only gray boxes

so i opened up my iPhoto, and some of my pics aren't showing. they show when i click on them, but the like thumbnails aren't showing. only gray boxes. like the outline of the box is a dotted gray line.
help?

You can add a title to a pic in iPhoto - you do it - and everything else - in the iPhoto Window. However this does not rename the file. If you want to access the pics, the filename is irrelevant:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 Only*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
If yiu want to export a copy of a pic, using the Title as Filename, then use the File -> Export command. It’s one of the options in that dialogue.
Regards
TD
