Using mail.app, exchange password expired, missing messages

Using Mail.app with an exchange account. Unknowingly my password had expired. I wrote lots of emails and pressed send. Got the 'whoosh' so I thought everything was ok. Subsequently I discovered my password had expired as I was not receiving new emails.
I then discovered the emails I was working on had not been sent (not in the exchange sent, outbox or drafts).
They are not locally in Mail.app, I can't find them in any of the local folders. What has happened? Is this a bug.
Any idea where the messages are please, 5 hours work down the drain if I can't recover them.
TIA.

Mail works fine with Exchange 2003. This is how our accounts are configured:
Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
eg. server2.bunnings.com.au
Username: domain\User alias\Full username
eg. bunnings\bobs\bob.smith
SMTP: smtp.bunnings.com.au
Web Access Server: webmail.bunnings.com.au
You can then setup the LDAP options under the composing tab to get the email list from your Exchange server.
And no i do not work for Bunnings!
Good Luck!

  • Assertion Failures using Mail.app with Exchange 2007...

    We have been implementing and migrating our end-users to Exchange 2007. In doing so we found that Mail.app end-users were experiencing Assertion failures in Console.app. They used to cause Mail.app to crash and lose connectivity frequently to the Exchange 2007 server. We made a change to the firewall to allow communication to happen between domain controllers, but haven't been able to determine if this in fact resolved or helped hide the root cause. We seem to be no longer crashing Mail.app or losing connectivity, but the same logs when we would crash/lose connectivity are still happening when you look in Console.app.

    We are getting these Assertion Failures for other end-users as well that are using Mail.app and connecting to Exchange 2007 Server. I have wiped my mail.app account and started from fresh and that didn't help. I did it manually as well ensuring that preference files, caches, and passwords related to mail.app, ical.app, and Address Book.app were removed. That did not work. I just went from 10.6.4 to 10.6.5 hoping that would correct the issue, it did not. I even set up on another Mac a baseline Snow Leopard and patched it and then configured my mail account and still got the same errors.
    What I am hoping for is not a miracle (Fixing the problem), but being told what these errors mean and if there is any risks to be concerned with. In other words, can I ignore these error messages or should I be concerned? Like I said it was causing us to get the sideways thunderbolt or triangle with an exclamation point and even crashing Mail.app at times. That hasn't happened since we let the all of the domain controllers talk to each other, even though they shouldn't have to.

    I echo your hope for someone shedding a light on this. I too am geting Assertion failures, every few days, though without much in the way of crashes.
    Here is an example of a log entry describing one recent such failure:

  • Mail for exchange in email, not messaging?

    I have an N97. My gmail account is set up fine. I've also set up my work email under 'mail for exchange' using outlook web access.
    But the 'mail for exchange' sits in the messaging app. I want to be able to read it on the same app that I read my gmail.
    Perhaps I have set it up wrong? But when I go into email, the button at the top left that lets me choose my mailbox only lets me select my gmail account.

    Hello, me again. I'm sure somebody must be able to help me with this so I'm trying again!
    I have the email widget set up on my n97. I connected it to my gmail account fine. Works nicely. 
    I wanted to connect it to my work email via exchange. So I go into the widget, click add new email, and set it all up. That all works fine.
    The problem is that my exchange account can't be accessed via the email widget. I have to go into the messaging app and drill down to 'Mail for exchange'.
    Is there anyway to be able to access both accounts through the email widget. The email widget is much nicer

  • Mail app keeps re-caching all messages when it starts

    Hello
    In past 10 days i have a very big problem which gives me headaches already. The problem is ( i did not change anything!) mail.app keeps re-caching all messages and attachments everytime i start the app. I have over 40.000+ mails so you do the math about how my bandwith eaten by the app. As i said i did not change anything. Anyway after searching dozens of forums and suggestions i did these steps:
    - removed MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 files. No fix alsa mail.app won't create new ones since then
    - removed whole cache, files, folders and accounts and re add them. No fix
    - Clean install of mavericks. No fix
    - Tried other apps like airmail, sparrow. Kinda no fix because airmail wont download whole messages only 1 month period even i choose to have all messages. Sparrow keeps giving error of unable to locate folders on the server. Only my windows thunderbird client works like a charm, there is no any issue at all but i hate windows.
    - some terminal commands before clean install which i really dont remember due to high number of commands. By the way i am using IMAP settings
    I really need a help here. I am talking about huge number of mails which are very important for me.
    Thank you

    What do you mean it does on your iPhone?
    If you download a new email to your computer and read that mail and then download it to the iPhone it sees it as already read? Then maybe the iPhone is using the Hotmail IMAP system? Not sure.

  • Can't down load mail using mail app

    Can't down load mail using mail app OS, I already delete the com.apple.mail.plist but didn't work, it can connect to the server and in the progress bar, it appear: incoming messages ex. 39 of 39 but 0kb of transmission. And if I go to the Account info window, I can see the messages on the server, as well as the subject, date received, and the size of them. So, the mail, does connect to the server and see the new mail, but just doesn't download them. I also tried delete the mailbox and create a new one, but the same result.
    If I use web mail I can see the mails.
    Any clue to fix it.

  • When I open my "Mail" app it only shows 2 messages when I know there are more.  How do I resolve this?

    When I choose my "Mail" app it only shows 2 messages in my inbox when I know there are more.  How do I resolve this?  Thanks.

    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.

  • Mail.app and purging of moved messages with IMAP accounts?

    I REALLY want to like Mail.app but one item that has caused frustration for years is the handling (or lack) of handling of my messages once moved to another folder with IMAP accounts. I would like for Mail.app to purge/expunge the messages from the server automatically when the message is moved but it doesn't seem to complete that transaction until you actually quit out of mail.
    I use multiple computers and I don't remember to quit out of Mail.app going from one of my Macs to another and don't want to but I'm getting tired of having to file the messages twice (or more). Is there a way to set Mail.app to do the automatic instant purging (or expunging) of the messages from the originating folders without having to quit out of the application? This seems to be the default behavior for nearly every other mail client I've used, including Entourage and is an option in Outlook and Outlook Express (PC).

    same is true with popmail, not just imap.
    moreover, i think hitting "remove now" just puts content in your server's trash folder, meaning it's still taking up disk quota and you'll never know till you stop getting mail...

  • Multiple mailboxes when using mail.app with google in IMAP.

    Hello,
    I have just started using mail.app with IMAP and my google mail account appears to be in two place. The mail.app has the following interface in the left pane.
    MAILBOXES, REMINDERS, RSS and GMAIL all in grey. Below the MAILBOXES i have got the following folders, inbox, sent and trash and below the GMAIL, i have got a replication of the structure in my google account.
    which set of folders should i be using?
    when i deleet the mail in the MAILBOXES it does not seem to delete it in All Mail folder under GMAIL.
    IS the synchronisation between the mails in the mail.app and the google server on a periodic basis. can i force the synchronisation?

    Mail works fine with Exchange 2003. This is how our accounts are configured:
    Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
    eg. server2.bunnings.com.au
    Username: domain\User alias\Full username

    You can then setup the LDAP options under the composing tab to get the email list from your Exchange server.
    And no i do not work for Bunnings!

  • I am running Lion (OS X 10.7.4) and trying to reinstall iLife06, a .mpkg file, using Installer.app.  I get a message "You can't open the application iLife06.mpkg because PowerPC apps are no longer supported."  Is there a work around??  Thanks in advance!

    The only workaround would be to purchase the current version of iLife apps from the App Store.
    Lion doesn't support the old PowerPC architecture anymore, which is what iLife '06 was written for.
    If the internal apps are universal, right-click on the mpkg and choose Show Contents. Then, dig through and run the specific installer package for each application.

  • Odd gmail behaviour when using mail.app

    Hello there,
    Ever since upgrading to Mavericks, I've been experiencing odd behaviour when sending messages from my gmail account in mail.app. I send a message and up to ten copies of the message appear in mail.app's trash.
    Does anyone know what might be the cause of this?
    many thanks,
    Chidi

    Well, Lion will slow it down, but you have to get 10.6.8 Installed first.
    Personally, I'd get an external drive to install 10.6 to, update it to 10.6.8, then Download 10.7 from the App Store & Install it on the external driive, leaving your 10.4.11 Disk to boot from if you need speed.

  • Backup Gmail using Mail.app and IMAP

    I would like to backup my Gmail emails using Apple Mail. I have IMAP turned on in Gmail. I know I need to add the account in Mail but I'm not sure what to do after that. I'm thinking I need to create a local mail folder in order to store the emails.
    Also, how could I automate this? Is Mail the best option for this scenario? Again, I'm only wanting this as a backup for Gmail.

    How about avoiding redundancy (http://superuser.com/questions/114253/backup-gmail-using-mail-app-and-imap-witho ut-redundancy)?
    I got this all working, there's even this literally great guide on my superuser post (http://db.tidbits.com/article/10253) but IMAP generates a lot of repeated files due to gmail labels nature.
    Anyone knows a way to circle around this and still be able to use IMAP and labels with mail.app and gmail?
