Spotlight indexing in mail is not working when I search, since 10.4.8 combo

Hi
I have noticed every since I installed the intel 10.4.8 combo update I have been unable to search my mail in Mail.
I assuming that it is spotlight that indexes the mail boxes. Though this only appears to be a problem when I am searching using the search box in Mail.
When I use the top right hand spotlight icon it works fine.
Does anyone know how to fix the search in Mail?
Thanks in advance.

I mean the search box in Mail itself and when
you search how it filters down in your inbox.
Actually, if you pay closer attention to what David has told you, you will see the banner he mentions provides for searching all mailboxes or the currently selected one, not just the Inbox, & for searching on the entire message; or the from, to, or subject fields alone.
The banner appears after doing any search using Mail's search box, even ones with zero results.
David wants to know what options are selected in that banner.

  • Help Please: Mail will not work when Wifi uses HTTP Proxy

    I am using an IPad 2 under iOS5. At work, I can connect to the internet using Safari via our wifi network with no problems. This requires access via a manually set HTTP Proxy.
    However, all attempts to create or use a (GMail) account have failed. I know that the mail account works because I have used it with no problems via my home wifi network. It would appear that Mail is not using the wifi proxy information in settings.
    The same was true under iOS4, but I would have hoped that a fix would have appeared in iOS5.
    Can anyone offer help or advice as to how I get around this problem?
    Thanks,

  • My mail will not work when I am at school.

    I am on my 15'' MBP. When I am on my own wireless network or on my neighbors. My mail sends just fine.
    I am currently at Arizona State University and I can neither recieve mail, nor send it.
    It gave me an error about the server or something but I was an idiot and did not copy it for help.
    Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem?

    You should have no problems receiving messages but being able to send messages with an account and SMTP server that is outside of the internet provider's network or not provided by the ISP is determined by the ISP.
    There is nothing wrong with using Port 587 in place of 25 as long as the ISP used for connecting to the internet doesn't block both.
    You need to check with ASU's IT department or whichever department handles internet and email account connections to determine the required settings for using an email account and SMTP server that is not provided by ASU or ASU's internet service provider.

  • On updating to Yosemite Mail Index damaged but does not  repair when re-opening mail.

    Yosemite updated but Mail index damaged and does not repair when re-opened. How is this fixed?

    I have the same thing happening.  Everything else seems to be working fine, except i can't open my mac mail at all!  it seems to be in a loop and won't let me retrieve any mail or even try to send mail before migrating, but it fails and then its back to the beginning and the same loop continues, so no mac mail working.  I also came from 10.6.8 to 10.10

    Sorry for the delay...
    I did what you've told me, new account and manually copied my files from Time Machine. I had lots of permissions problems, but at the end, almost everything is in order... It seems it had to be with some of the Apple Preferences, but I can't be sure, as most of them were dumped to the trash can.
    I still don't have my Mail Rules back, unfortunately, although I did goggled some. It is a pity, as I had around 30 or 40 of them, getting my mail in order to each of its mailboxes, but it is a small price as the rest doesn't show the before syntoms.
    Thanks for the help, anyway!!

    I have had voice mail set up on my phone for 10 years. When I did the last iOS update before 7 I guess it wiped out my voice mail. Can I not set it up myself? I haven't changed my message in years.

  • My ipad safari and mail are not working. Why are they blank when I clickclick on them?

    My ipad safari and mail are not working.  Why are they blank when I

    For Safari try clearing it's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History).
    You could also try closing the two apps completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari or Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail and Safari apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The search function on my apple mail is not working.

    The search function in Apple mail is not working.  When I type in something to search by, the results are not showing up. 
    I've clicked on "All" on the search requirements to include all of my mailboxes.
    I've also tried rebuilding the mailboxes with no results.
    Has anyone else had this issue?

  • Why Dynamic Parameter is not working, when i create report using stored procedure ?

    CA Forum: General
    Hi all
    Why Dynamic Parameter is not working, when i create report XI using stored procedure ?
    Only i shaw those parameters which i used in my stored procedure, the parameter which i create dynamic using stored procedure
    is not shown to me when i referesh the report for viewing the results.
    I have used the same procedure which i mention below but can not seen the last screen which is shown in this .
    ============================================================================================
    1. Select View > Field Explorer2. Right-click on Parameter Fields and select New from the right-click menu.3. Enter u201CCustomer Nameu201D as the name for your parameter4. Under u201CList of Valuesu201D select u201CDynamicu201D5. Under the Value column, click where is says u201Cclick here to add itemu201D and select Customer Name from the drop-down list. The dialog shown now look like the one shown below in Figure 1. Click OK to return to your report design.
    Dynamic Parameter Setup6. Next, select Report > Select Expert, select the Customer Name field and click OK.7. Using the drop-down list beside select u201CIs Equal Tou201D and using the drop-down list, select your parameter field (it should be the first field). 8. Click OK to return to your report design and see the parameter dialog.The parameter dialog will appear and show you a dynamic list of values that is updated each time your run your report. It couldnu2019t be easier! In our next tutorial, we will be looking at how to use this feature to create cascading parameter fields, where the values are filtered by the preceding selection.
    Dynamic Parameters in Action
    My question is that whether dynamic parameter is working with storedprocedure or not.
    When i added one table and try to fetch records using dyanmic prameters. after that i am not be able to find the dynamic parameter option when i referesh my report.
    One more thing when i try the static parameter for my report, the option i see when i referesh the screen.
    Please reply soon , it's urgent

    Hi Kishore,
    I have tested the issue step by step by following you description, while the first issue works well in my local environment. Based on my research, this can be caused by the lookup expression or it indeed return Male value based on the logic. If you use the
    expression below, it will indeed only return the Male record. So please try to double-check the record in the two datasets and the expression in your environment:
    =lookup(first(Fields!ProgramID.Value,"DataSet1"),Fields!ProgramID.Value,Fields!Gender.Value,"DataSet2")
    As to the second issue, please try to use the following expression:
    =Count(Lookup(fields!ProgramID.value,fields!ProgramID.value,fields!Gender.value,"DataSet2"))
    Besides, if this issue still exist, in order to trouble shoot this issue more efficiently, could you please post both the .rdl  file with all the size properties to us by the following E-mail address?  It is benefit for us to do further analysis.
