Shortcuts in Mail no longer working

As I have several different e-mail accounts, I set up 2 shortcuts in Mavericks using System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> App Shortcuts such that different hotkey combinations would change the sender from my default to a different account (which would also enable the correct signature to appear in the e-mail).
While the shortcuts still appear in the System Preferences, they no longer work in Mail. I did notice that the sender account format changed from Name <e-mail address> to Name – e-mail address (the "<>" being replaced by a single long dash). I manually edited the shortcut but this still did not solve the problem.
All help greatly appreciated!

Problem solved. I guess I didn't type the dash correctly. Re-did it and now the hotkeys appear in the accounts list and they work when I apply them.

After upgrading to iOS6 my e-mail no longer works. How do I get it back?

I upgraded to iOS6 and now my e-mail no longer works. What do I do to get it back? It is stuck. I have restarted the iPad multiple times, checked my settings to no avail. I know the accouunt still works as I can access it on my PC. Help!! PLease

The button sounds like it sends a video to vodpod.com but that doesn't match what I see for the extension. The other two extensions came up with a search for vodpod but don't specifically mention vodpod.

HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
"The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

HT1338 I just uploaded an update to Mountain Lion today mail no longer works

I just uploaded an update to Mountain Lion today mail no longer works.

After I ran theupdate yesterday I got a message that the update did not complete. When I tried to run mail I got a error message that mail could not run. When I rebooted and tried mail again I got the same error. I tried to load the last mail update from the apple store, but could not run it because it was unsigned.

I recently downloaded iOS 6 and since then, my shortcuts for messaging no longer work, I've tried resetting it, and deleting and re-entering them.

Use the yahoo app if available?

ICloud Mail no longer working

When upgrading to Mountain Lion, I got this message "enter the Apple ID password for [email protected] to use Back to Mac". I put in my password and it said it wasn't valid. So I clicked to change the password. After changing the password successfully, I tried entering it for the Back to Mac thing, and it still said it was invalid. Now, my iCloud email is no longer working through Mail. I tried updating the password to the new one and it still will not work (also when I do this I get a message that the "incoming Mail Server" field cannot be empty, but this field is grayed out so I can't change it). I tried setting the iCloud email up as a new account in Mail and it doesn't work. I am getting this error message:
The server returned the error: The iCloud IMAP server “(null)” doesn’t support Apple Token authentication. Verify your account settings and try again.
My iCloud email is also no longer working on my phone. I tried changing the password on my phone and it still does not work. Now when I try to change my password back from within the Settings, a message pops up that says "iCloud Terms of Service have changed". I tap the OK button and it just goes to a blank screen so I can't get to my settings. Argh!
I can login online at iCloud.com using my old password and it opens for me. Weird.
Any ideas to what I can do to get it all working again? I'm wondering if I should try changing my password a third time since the new password isn't being accepted in the Back to My Mac thing? I really don't care about Back to My Mac, just want me email working from my phone and from Mail.

I figured it out...the upgrade must have tried using [email protected] So you got a blueish icon in the Mail app, in the accounts window.
Remove it and add [email protected] you will instead get an icon like this:
Its a greyish iCloud icon (its just blue because its highligthed).
This should work.

Apple Mail No longer working

My email has been working just fine until a couple of months ago. I gave up however I do miss receiving email on my MacBook Pro. I'm receiving my emails using my iPhone and if I log in to yahoo! however it stopped working with Apple Mail. I have not changed any of the settings so I am puzzled why it is no longer working. For the last couple of months I've been trying to figure out why but I've had no luck.
My email account is an sbcglobal.net account. Also my other friend is having the same issue with his sbcglobal.net account. So now I'm wondering if a lot of people are having the same issue.
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Gilbert

When I open the 'Mail' app, it puts an exclamation mark next to my "Inbox" - "unable to receive mail - there may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account "Home Email" or try again".
Here is what I have in my settings:
Account Information tab:
Description: Home Email
Email Address: xxxxxxxxxx
Incoming Mail Server: inbound.att.net
User Name: it's my email address
Password: my password
Under the Advanced tab I have Port "995" with use SSL checked - and the authentication is set to "password"
Outgoing Mail Server SMTP:
Server Name: outbound.att.net
Use custom port: 465
Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is "checkedd"
Authenticaton: it is set to "Password"
User Name: my email address
Password is the same one I put under my incoming settings.

Drag and Drop export of vcards to Mail no longer works in Snow Leopard

In 10.5, you could drag a vcard from the Address Book application, drop it on the Mail icon on the dock, and the vcard would be automatically attached to a new mail message. This no longer works in 10.6. Tested on a G4 iMac running Leopard and a Mac Pro on Snow Leopard. Kind of a bummer, as I used to send new contacts to business partners all the time this way.

There have been other reports of drag and drop to the icon not working like it did/should.
I imagine rewriting it for Docksposé caused a lot of code changes. Hopefully, they will fix the things that have fallen through the cracks.
I forgot to mention the only workaround I can find is to create the new message first, and then use Docksposé to drop the vCards onto the new message.

Mac mail no longer works with iCloud

Since installing icloud, my mac mail is no longer working.

You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

After installing Leopard 10.5.3 Mail no longer works in SSL

After installing Leopard 10.5.3 Mail no longer supports SSL (Port 993) with password authentication. Setting it back to Port 143 seems to be fine. While this is not a problem at home when I am on the road it is a definite problem. Are other users finding similar problems? What are the work arounds (besides changing mail programs)?

No, all certificates are fine.
Three months on 10.5.3? Really? It seems to me that we had 10.5.2 three months ago.
Anyway, it seems that the mail problem may have been a coincidence with the release of 10.5.3 -- mail servers seem to be back up and mail, both SSL and non-SSL seem to be working as if 0730 EDT.
This then becomes more of an Apple problem of letting the community know that mail is down -- and that problems are most likely not related to the update of Leopard. This would be particularly helpful since many of us (very many, I suspect) have the auto update configuration for doing system updates turned on.

After 10.5.6 update Mail no longer works

I just updated to 10.5.6 and now Mail (3.5) no longer works. Just before the 10.5.6 update all Mail functions were working normally. When I launch the program "Mail" appears on the menu bar but no window opens. I can select the message window from the menu bar and make it appear but it has no message list and no message content in the window. I can't make sent messages appear either. My in, sent, etc. mailboxes show on the left as usual but I can't get any messages to appear in the window for either of my mail accounts. Also, Mail won't quit without being force quit. I also did the Mail Update 10.5.6 but this didn't help. I went back and used an older 3.3 version of Mail but it won't work now either.

Hi,
Some people have reported success by trashing the preference file for Mail. Quit Mail if it is currently up and try moving this file onto your Desktop:
Hard drive -> Users -> YourUsername -> Library -> Preferences -> com.apple.mail.plist
If Mail now launches properly, reset your preferences to how you like them. If it makes no difference, quit Mail again and move the file on your Desktop back to it's original location.

My Mac Mail no longer works (does not receive or send mail)

I have had my MacBook for maybe a year now, and I don't really use the mail often. The last time I was able to send and receive mail was back in October. Now it will no longer work.. I get a pop up that's always asking me to put in my mail password, but nothing happens. I even tried going to preference to change my password and it won't allow me.
When I try to send mail, the little paper plane icon is not clickable. Nothing happens. The only thing I can do is exit out of the message or save the draft. And I can not seem to get mail at all from anyone. I haven't touched any setting either, so I don't understand why it no longer works. My bank can no longer send me emails nor can my friends send me emails anymore.
Does anyone know how I can possibly fix this problem and get my email up and running again. Thanks in advance for all the advice.

I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)

Update to iphone 1.0.1 and my IMAP mail no longer works...

i Updated today to iphone 1.0.1 and my IMAP no longer works.
Also just to validate i tried both wifi and EDGE. Symptoms as follows:
EDGE: Just states "Connecting...." forever
WIFI: States "Checking for Mail...." forever
I deleted and re-added the account. It confirms that "Exchange account verified". so here is what i have concluded:
1. my account is fine. worked yesterday pre-iphone patch and now doesn't work.
2. it is not an edge only problem, since wifi doesn't work at all.
3. i've tried both imap4 and exchange and neither works.
4. i've tried to restore - and that didn't work
5. i tried reset all settings. that didn't work
PLEASE HELP - I REALLY WANT MY EMAIL TO WORK.......
so now how do i undo the update? If i restore will the update go away?
Major Bummer!!!!!!!!!!!

I am having the same problem. I have tried deleting and recreating the account several times. I have tried /, INBOX, /INBOX and INBOX/. I have restored.
I can see my folders immediately. I can see changes to those folders immediately. I cannot get any mail! EDGE hangs at "Connecting" forever, WiFi hangs at "Checking for mail" forever.
