Server Admin only shows 201 messages in Mail Queue

This issue has been haunting me since 10.5.0 and I can't seem to get rid of it. It's not crucial, but very obnoxious. In Server Admin (from multiple computers) the mail queue will only show a maximum of 201 messages. If there are more than that I have a cryptic "message" at the end of the list that has a message ID of "FFFFFFFFFFFF" and the Recipients Field has [...]
I would love to be able to see all the messages in my queue if possible, but haven't found anywhere to fix this.
Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks Alex. We aren't bouncing spam on our mail server, but I do notice that a lot of the mail is from MAILER-DAEMON. I'm assuming it's "User not Found" messages from hosts that don't really exist. I've tweaked the server using some suggestions from osx.topicdesk.com to clear some of those out, but it hasn't been 100% effective.
I think part of the issue is that the server is a dual G4 Xserve and is scanning junk mail on all messages. I assume that those two factors contribute to the backup of mail in the queue.
As for volume of mail, we receive 100k a month.

You need to create HTML signatures for use with the Apple Mail apps. You can't just throw in a logo, it has to be stored on the internet and it's location coded into your signature. You may find a service and an app that helps you do that in the iTunes App Store.

Thunderbird 24.4.0 has removed a feature I used - the ability to only show unread messages when viewing a mailbox. "quick filter" does that, but not persistentl

How can I set the view to only show unread messages persistently for a mailbox (e.g. junk)?

I used to be able to set it by folder. Removing the feature does not make the product better. I have no desire, for example, to see all the old spam, but I do want to see my old mail. I don't understand what the developers were thinking when they removed this capability.

Try restarting your phone while you hold down the power AND the sleep button at the same time.
This defenitly is a software bug and normally there should be this button.

Server admin not showing network traffic graph

This topic was posted a while ago with no solution, and it has been [archived|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6953359]. I have just experienced the same problem with Leopard Server Admin (SA). It seems to be a problem on the server, not in the client admin, since it occurs both when I use SA on the server itself and a client, and deleting client prefs. has not helped. I'm presuming that there is a corrupted database or prefs. file for this graph.
All the other SA graphs show just fine. Fixing permissions has not helped, either.
Anyone have any idea where to look on the server? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure I have since I have a few Mac Mini's on the network with their home directory residing on the server and my Windows users are sharing a few daily use files on the server including a MYOB data file, also our intranet web site is hosting on the same server, not to mention I have 3 print queues there and all the outgoing mails from both of our all-in-one scan to email machines are using the same server. All of these services and users are using their computer as if nothing is wrong, so I have to assume that there is network traffic unless server admin interprets the term "network traffic" differently.

Installed Thunderbird but it only shows recent messages - why?

After months of problems with Outlook I installed Thunderbird. It seems to work great, but this morning I went to search for an email...I couldn't find it. I then realised that it only shows recent emails in the inbox. I've read various things but can't seem to make it download my old messages which are on the server and still show in Outlook.
Please help me sort this.

Is Thunderbird the default mail account?
Do you have an IMAP or Pop mail account?
If IMAP, what settings do you have here? :
'Tools' > 'Account Settings' > 'Synchronize & Storage' for the mail account
At the top of the page, 'Keep messages for this account on this computer' should be checked if you want to synchronize messages between your local system and your mail server.
Under the Disc space section, do you have it set to only synchronise the most recent xx days or messages ?
See more info here:

Server Admin not showing all accounts under "maintenence"

Using server admin on OS X (10.4.11) on an xServe, I cannot see all of the accounts listed.
Going to Mail -> Maintenance -> Accounts, it only lists out the first 20 accounts. I have no idea how to see the rest of the accounts.
Any way to increase the number of accounts listed so I can view all of the accounts? I cant see free space or repair any accounts after the letter "B"
Thanks

Where did my messages go? (Only "showing" 50 messages).

I have had my iPhone 3G set to show 50 Recent Messages (e-mail). I have had about 20 messages in my InBox, but then had more than 30 new messages this morning. Some of the older messages in my InBox have disappeared. I checked in the Trash, but they are not there. I changed the settings to show 200 Recent Messages, but the old messages are still missing. Where did they go, and is there a way to get them back?
Thanks,
Guy

At the bottom of the list of messages there should be a "Load more messages" place to tap. Is it not there?

Server Admin not showing jobs in print queue

Hi All,
I'm not sure if others are having this problem or if it's just me. I am running Mac Server OS X 10.6.7 When I go to Server Admin and select "Print" and then "Job Status", I get a list of all the server's print queues. In the pane below the list of queues, there is a section that says "Jobs on Queue:" which then allows me to select any specific print queue. The problem is, no matter what queue I select, I am never able to see any of the print jobs going through the queue. I have sent multiple jobs to different printers on the server, all while watching the "Jobs on Queue" window for the appropriate printer. In every test, I have never seen ANY print job show up in that window, even though all the print jobs print out fine. I have even tried pausing a printer to let jobs queue up, and still nothing shows up in that window.
I have also tried the same tests while viewing the prints queues from the "Print & Fax" System Preferences pannel directly on the server. Still no luck. Everything prints out fine, but I am unable to ever see any print job hitting the queue.
The reason I even noticed this problem is because a user accidentally printed a 500 page document by mistake. The user called me to stop the job, but I was unable to see anything in the queue to kill. I tried deleting the job directly from the printer, but this just caused the printer to lock up. I would try powering off the printer and restarting it, but as soon as it powered back on, the print job would restart. I even tried restarting the server, but as soon as the server came back online, the print job started again. Finally, after hunting on the web, I tried logging into CUPS via http://localhost:631 and was able to see the print job listed there and finally delete it.
Is there any way to monitor print jobs on the server in real time? I found this previous archived thread describing what appears to the same problems using Mac Server OS X10.5.8, but there was never any solution listed before the thread was archived.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2152737

Is there anyone using printing services on a Mac server at all that could comment on whether or not you see the print jobs listed in the queue when printing?

Apple File Service in Server Admin tools shows stopped but is running fine

Hi
I am having a bizzare issue and not getting anywhere fast and hope anyone can help and would be appreciated.
What happened is one disk failed in our Xserve Raid (Raid 5)and we had to replace the drive in the server which rebuilt itself fine.
The issue is since we rebuilt the raid, the Xserve is showing the Apple File Service as stopped with 10.3.9 server admin.
The service is running fine as all the users including myself can connect using AFP, but I have no way to manage the AFP connections on the server.
I have tried rebooting and putting the server tools on a desktop. Though I still have the same issue.
Has anyone come across a similar problem with a service running and unable to manage in Server admin?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Bene
On the server launch terminal
su root (supply the password when prompted)
serveradmin status afp
The service should report that its ‘RUNNING’
serveradmin stop afp
serveradmins status afp
The service should report that its ‘STOPPED’
serveradmin start afp
serveradmin status afp
It should now be ‘RUNNING’ again
You could try running fsck and DiskWarrior on the RAID as the problem could lie with the Directory being damaged or corrupted. No need to reboot the server with the DiskWarrior disk (v3.03 or 4.0) just drag the application off the CD to the Server volume and run it from there. Make sure that all users are not connected to the RAID volume affected as DiskWarrior will unmount the whole drive.
Hope this helps.

Server Admin not showing IMAP connections and false Mailman status

Although several users are connected to the cyrus IMAP server (IMAPS/TLS) Server Admin reports zero connections. Also Server Admin reposts that Mailinglists are stopped but Mailman is running fine.
Any suggestions? I'm running Mac OS X Server 10.5.5 (9F33) and the same version of the Admin Tools.
Best regards,
Stefan

For mail status, do a comparison via the Terminal:
sudo serveradmin fullstatus mail
But I have also seen this issue with 10.4 server (IMAP connections not reliably reported).
If you watch the system.log , you can see incoming connections (authentications) happen.
Another way to check for active IMAP connections is via:
netstat -anp tcp | grep 143
(or, use 993 for IMAP w/SSL )
The best way to administer mailman is via its web interface, which you can access on your server via
http://mail.yourserver.com/mailman/admin
where of course "mail.yourserver.com" is its FQDN without actual quotation marks.

# Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.

I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]

Webmail only shows 3000 messages/folder?

We're running NSMS 4.15p7 on WinNTAS. A number of people use the webmail interface as they travel. Yesterday I had a user open up a helpdesk ticket as he had stopped getting mail December 24th. Checked his mailbox and there are over 4000 messages in it. Saved/then changed his password and looked at it myself. The folder view in webmail shows the 4200 messages in the inbox. Opening the inbox only gives you the first 3000. You can't select any more.
Any ideas on a fix other than rearranging mail for the user?
This problem doesn't appear on my iPlanet v5.1 test system.

Set <b>mePageSize</b> in main.js to increase the count variable. You should be able to set this up to 10,000.
This isn't a problem in IMS.
