Turning on "Junk Mail Filtering" Crashes Mail when using GMAIL IMAP

So I thought I had my Gmail IMAP satisfactorily set up through Mail, then I turned on Junk Mail filtering through preferences. Immedaitely Gmail stopped synchronizing (I still can't get it to sync) and Mail starts hanging on basic tasks and will not quit properly. In fact, I have had to "Force Quit" the application ever since changing this status.
Anyone else having this issue?

I have now confirmed that when I turn Junk Mail filtering off via preferences, Gmail will start syncing again and the application will quit properly.

Apple Mail not showing any emails in Inbox when using Gmail IMAP.

I am using Mail to check my Gmail which is set up in Google Apps. The problem is that it never seems to synchronize properly with Gmail. Right now, if I click on Inbox in Mail, it is empty. Not one mail. But if I search for something in the search bar, the mails in Inbox appear. This happens on two computers, an iMac and a Macbook Pro, both running Snow Leopard.
I am using about 1.7GB of space on Gmail, so I do have a lot of mail, but for some reason Apple Mail never seems catch up and just run smoothly. Other people on the same domain hosted by Google Apps, also using Apple Mail are fine. Please let me have any ideas.
Operating system: Apple OS X 10.6.1
Program and version you use to access Gmail: Apple Mail 4.1

Welcome to my confusing and problematic world. We currently have 20-odd users on the Google Apps domain. 3 of them are using Apple Mail to access their mail. 1 is having problems. The only thing different about this user is that we imported messages in from Outlook using the Google mail importer. This is the only thing I can think. The importer seemed to ignore certain folders, even if we retried, and it created folders as inbox/insurance_ etc. I changed all the folders to INBOX in caps, as that is what Mail preferred, and removed the trailing underscore.
This is the only thing different about this user.
On a web browser looking at Gmail, I have:
Inbox
Starred
Sent Mail
Drafts
[Imap]Drafts
Apple Mail To Do
Deleted Items
Deleted Messages
Follow Up
INBOX/folder1
INBOX/folder2
INBOX/folder2/folder1
etc...
INBOX/Folder113
Junk E-mail
Misc
Priority
Sent Messages
4 More (containing Chats, All Mail, Spam, Bin)
I did another "Account Info" and got this: http://gallery.me.com/rtaxerxes/100023/Screen%20shot%202009-11-04%20at%2010.19.5 9%20PM
You'll notice, now it does have an Inbox. But the folders it says are 0 messages and 0 KB do actually have stuff in them on the web browser.

I am running OS10.6.8 and have a mail box duplication. I use gmail and when I open my mail I have both the Apple Mail and another set of boxes for Gmail. Both get all mail and when I delete from one, it deletes from the other. How can I get rid of the dup

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

Line breaks in emails when using Gmail

*The problem arises because the iPhone uses "Plain Text" to send emails.*
*When using gmail, gmail automatically inserts line breaks in "Plain Text" emails every 78 characters, the reason why you see the breaks when unexpected.*
*See: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?id=4d1cecc1aab102ef&hl=en*
*To fix this problem:*
*1. Apple can allow us to send mail with Rich Text support from iOS devices OR*
*2. Google has to change the line breaks setting so that Plain text flows (and isn't broken) <-- this option is probably more realistic*
*I have tried from a hotmail account, sending email as plain text doesn't have line breaks imposed like the gmail account, but rather "flows".*
*If you want gmail to add a setting to disable line breaks in plain text emails:*
*Suggest the feature here:*
*http://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=suggestions.cs*
*I chose these categories:*
*- I have another idea*
*- Sending and receiving*
*- - - Composing and delivery*
*- - - - Sending options*
*-For comments: Configure or disable plain text wrap length.*

I am having the same problem with an IMAP/SMTP account. It was a GMail account, I switched it to using the GMail auto setup and haven't had any issues.
But under the standard IMAP/SMTP setting almost 1/3 of all messages were showing no content.
Though I don't recall exactly - I think most of them were sent while I was on 3G, and it otherwise works fine on WiFi.

When using gmail on safari, there is white tie on the top

when using gmail on safari, there is white tie on the top and I don't know why it is.

Might be a third party plugin or extension causing this ...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
If it's not a plug-in issue, select the Extensions tab. If there are any extensions installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that made a difference, uninstall one at a time, quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the culprit.

Multiple notes when using gmail??!

I tried using gmail IMAP with mail and whnever I tried to edit a note a new one is created so I have a million notes why??

...so look in the Event editor (just hit E ) and see if the doubled notes are on the same or on different midi channels. If the doubles are duplicates (same length, same velocity, same channel) then you have a MIDI loop and need to set your keyboard to local off, as pointed out.
To get rid of the duplicates you already have, select all notes (⌘-A) in the editor and hit D .

Junk mail filtering categorizes mails a junk that I write myself

hello all. I set my preferences to move messages to junk if any:
Sender is not in my Previous Recipients
Sender is not in my Address Book
Message is Junk Mail.
Now, mail categorizes mail as junk that I write myself and save as draft. I made sure the writer (myself) and the recipient are both in my previous recipients and in my address book, but mail still caracterizes them as junk. This isn't exactly a superserious concern, since I can still send it and it's allright. But it's still strange.
Whatcha think?
thnx

You're welcome. Thanks for the clarification.
What are you trying to accomplish in the Advanced section that you cannot accomplish using the other settings in Preferences > Junk Mail? It looks like you've incorrectly modified the junk rule by specifying any instead of all and removing one of the default conditions...

Mail crash?? - another Gmail IMAP problem...

Hi,
This problem seems similar to another recent thread but my Mail app is acting so strangely I think this warrants its own spot.
I have been running Mail up till today with two accounts - a Gmail POP account and a college email ('BlitzMail', for any Dartmouth alums) IMAP account. I had a couple plugins installed - Mail Badger and Mail Act-On.
Today, I decided to switch my Gmail account to IMAP. After I made the switch, everything seemed to be working fine. However, as soon as I clicked send on a test message from my Gmail account to see if I had set everything up correctly, Mail hung for a bit and finally just froze.
After the force quit and restart of the computer, here is what has happened: Mail Act-On has entirely disappeared. It just doesn't appear anymore on the preference pane. Mail Badger is still on the preference pane, although all of the badges that I had previously had have disappeared. Also, I am not able to send any messages with either account. And, both accounts have been very slow and cranky - whenever I click on the Inbox, it takes several seconds to display the messages, and oftentimes displays several copies of them.
Weirdest of all, however, is that I am not able to quit the Mail app. Apple+q simply doesn't work and the only way I can close the app is via a force quit. Finally, for some reason, the actual Mail window has stopped appearing by default and clicking on the dock icon doesn't bring it back. The only way I am able to view the actual window is by clicking View--> Message Viewer.
Any help or suggestions? I use both accounts rather frequently and would like to get this sorted out as quickly as possible.
Thanks a bunch!
(And wow, this totally makes me envious of Time Machine!)

for me, mail badger was the culprit. i e-mailed the developer and have not heard back.
right after switching to gmail imap, i too was having the same problems as the original poster: could not properly quit mail; had to force-quit mail; when mail started the message window was not visible; always had to go to window-->message viewer to get it to appear; and on top of all that, mail badger didn't even work.
got rid of it and all was fine. running httpmail, growlmail, mail act-on, mail followup, and largely no problems.
but i think people are also right in saying that apple mail is finicky about gigantic imap accounts...which is why i keep almost all my gmail messages in the "all mail" folder instead of the inbox. something tells me the inbox loads faster that way?

Yahoo mail won't send when using wifi; works otherwise?

iPhone 5s with latest OS updates.
Steps to reproduce problem:
1. Set up Yahoo mail in iPhone mail client
2. Connect to local wifi using Centurylink in my case but it happens on other networks also.
3. Send an email.
Email seems to get stuck going out and won't leave. The app sort of hangs and if you're lucky, you'll see the email in the outbox unsent. Sometimes you won't find it. It's never in the sent folder either.
However, if you turn off wifi, it sends fine.
What's going on here? Is it Yahoo or iPhone?

My week-old 3GS is doing a very similar thing with my Yahoo, if not the exact same thing. I'll start a new thread in case it's different.

Mail will not download when using an alternative ISP

I am using Mail 3.6, with the ISP being Telstra Bigpond (Australia) at my work location. I also have several Netspace mailboxes and use Netspace as my ISP at home.
Recently, while on-line at work on Bigpond, Mail has intermittently refused to download incoming mail addressed to the Netspace mail boxes. I have checked the account settings and all is as recommended by the ISP. When I am at home using the Netspace internet connection, e-mails download to both Netspace and Bigpond mailboxes with no problems. In the past this problem has not occurred.
The error message reads
"There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “[email protected]” or try again.
The server error encountered was: The attempt to read data from the server “pop.netspace.net.au” failed."
Interestingly, if I set up Thunderbird with exactly the same settings as used in Mail, downloads occur at both locations without problems.
My me.com mail works at both locations.
I would appreciate any advice on this matter.

I haven't used gmail, but I gather this is one of the "features". Do a search in this forum using gmail as a keyword - I think there may have been a workaround posted.

Mail application - quits unexpectedly when using IMAP and gmail

when i use mail as a IMAP client i will get the dialog box about mail quits unexpectedly
this only happens with gmail - no issue when using mail with mobile.me

Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Mail suddenly won't connect to gMail IMAP servers after network crash

After the network in our building went down yesterday, Apple Mail refuses to connect to Google's IMAP servers. I am guessing this is some sort of weird config problem. Is there a way to hit the reset button without dumping my prefs and loosing my current mail setup?

Same with me here...
Hey, come on, i can't connect so any more of my Gmail accounts using mail 3.6 (+ the 10.5.7 update too), my University mail account works (configured having a mail.any_university.com server).
Hey apple guys, this can't be...!???!
Maybe you should concentrate a little more on things your computer users need than on making a new iphone that is smaller than a walnut.
I wanna be able to check my mails again !

Unable to read e-mails off of Hotmail when using Firefox, but I can with Internet Explorer. Hotmail seems to be the only one I have trouble with.

Having trouble doing different functions on Hotmail when using Firefox. Doesn't seem to be a problem with other sites. Also, no trouble using Hotmail when using Internet Explorer. This just started, yesterday.

I had no problem using Hotmail yesterday on Firefox 10.0.2

Mail won't find emails in gmail imap account

I'm having this problem since I moved to the Mailboxapp on my iPhone.
I changed the gmail account to using imap instead of pop3.
Now, when I search in the Apple Mail app, it doesn't find messages with the "any" search directive.
E.g. searching "theo" with any, won't show the mails contained in the imap inbox, sent or important folders on the gmail imap.
If I search for "theo" with from, it finds the emails in the in the imap inbox. If I search with to, it finds the ones in the sent imap folder.
Is this expected behaviour?

Thanks Griff and Eric. I tried both and it's still the same.
It just won't display messages matching the search term in the from field when using the any search.
It will only find them when searching with the from criterion.
I also want to point out that I followed these Instructions for setting up Mail for Mailboxapp:
http://www.mailboxapp.com/help/client-config/mail.app.html
If you do follow those instructions, "Store draft messages on server", "Store sent messages on server" and "Store junk messages on server" will be checked under the Account settings' Mailbox Behaviors' tab.
But searching *should* still work as expected imho.
