Wrong number of messages in mail title bar

A minor issue: mail is displaying the wrong number of messages in the title bar of the mail window. (Says 45 when there's actually 16). Quitting & restarting the app fixes it, as does "rebuild", but "get mail" doesn't.
Thanks!

I had the same issue after a power failure knocked my iMac down in full operation. For days I had this nagging 1 message unread on my dock icon. I have a massive list of neatly organized hierarchical mailboxes, with an equally massive list of rules to put incoming messages straight into the appropriate mailbox depending on sender, subject, etc...
Reading this thread gave me the idea to create a smart mailbox with the unread messages. Bam! It showed the one message which was unread, even though the containing mailbox folder didn't show it as unread. That solved the problem.
You might try deleting the smart mailbox with the unread messages, (eventually stopping Mail, restarting the computer), and re-creating the smart mailbox for unread messages.

    This is Unity Connection 8.6.2.
    I have a couple of VM boxes with wrong number of messages. Users are getting false indications of messages on their phones as well.
    We rebuilt one these VM boxes and the issue is gone on that extension. Rebooting the server didn't fix it.
    Any idea what would cause this?

    We found that someone changed the Aging Policy for the users set to Do Not Age Messages. This caused the system to keep deleted messages for over 2 years. We set them back to Default System Policy and the number is back to a normal level.

  • Wrong number of messages in dock icon

    I have a red circle with the number 3 attached to the Mail icon in my dock, even though I have read all messages in each of my mailboxes and folders. I created a Smart Mailbox that showed all unread messages and cleared everything that the Smart Mailbox found, yet the number 3 still persists. Does anyone know how to eliminate this number?
    Thanks.

  • Wrong number of messages in GMAIL inbox

    Hi all,
    I just bought a 13 inch macbook air with OSX Lion and I'm loving it but I just have a small problem with configuring gmail in mail and I hope some of you can help.
    I set up the gmail IMAP account in Mail. It works fine except that it indicates that there is 1385 unread messages in the gmail inbox while there is none. 1385 seems to be the maximum number of unread message you can have in Mail and so the counter is not upgraded when I receive a new mail, which makes it a little bit harder to spot that I received new messages.
    Anybody knows how to fix it so that the gmail inbox indicate the actual nunber of unread messages?
    Thanks,
    J.

    Yes, I did: I used cmd-A to select all the messages and the inbox and mark them all as read. But it did not change anything.
    The same way, the rebuilt mailbox did not have any effect neither.
    Thanks anyway!

  • I am receiving a Problem Loading page error message in the title bar. Also Unable To Connect message.

    I have been using Mozilla to access my e-mails from my Comcast account. Since the upgrade, I cannot access any sites, as well as my Comcast account in order to view my e-mails. Please answer as soon as possible because I am not able to get some of my important messages.
    Thank you

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Wrong Invalid email message in Mail

    I am trying to set up a new mail account on Ipad mini and i get told that info@teatro-madroño.*** is an invalid email address. It clearly isn't as I can use it elsewhere. What's the story?
    <Email Edited By Host>

    Do you want to delete the accounts & all Mail they have, instead of the Disable account?
    Mail>Preferences>Accounts, highlight one & click the little minus icon below.
    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 these 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 help & you can afford to redo any Mail Rules...
    Trash these files...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/... MessageRules.plist and MessageRules.plist.backup

  • TS3276 How do I set up Mail to show the number of messages in each of my mailboxes?

    I just upgraded to Yosemite yesterday and am getting used to how things look. I'm almost positive that yesterday my Mail inbox showed the number of messages that were there, but now there is nothing. However, the number of flagged messages is shown. Any help with this? It's just a format thing, but I like to know how many emails I have in my inbox. Thanks!

    Yes, I can see the number of messages, including unread, in the application title bar:
    This is temporarily hidden in full screen view but re-appears if you hover the cursor over the top of the title bar.
    The screenshot above is from an iCloud account, and I get the same with a gmail account, but I don't have an Exchange account I can test.

  • IMessage title bar shows contact number only

    With the iMessage, I found if the person is using iMessage instead of text messages, the title bar shows the +1 (XXX) XXX-XXXX number, rather than the contact name, which is already in the contact.  Even I tried to add the number again, it still shows me the number only.  Some people don't have this issue, but I do.  Is there a setting I can change to fix this?  Thanks!

    I am having the same problem, all imessage messages are showing up as +1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx and as a result aren't showing the name.  I have to add that number to the persons name to get the name to show up, but then I have duplicate numbers in my contact details for eacher person, with one with a +1 on it.

  • How to send a warning message before closing soft via X of the title bar

    With labview 8.2:
    I would like to send a warning message before closing my soft when the user press the "X" of the title bar. Is it possible to do that without a Windows dll?
    Thanks a lot,
    Daniel.

    Gerd,
    I think a filter event for 'Panel close?' is more appropriate because you have the possibility to cancel the event or continue the event.

  • Number of messages notification in Mail disappears

    At the top of Mail, it lists the number of messages and new messages in the Inbox. For example:
    Inbox (67 messages, 2 unread)
    This always shows when I open Mail, but the counts randomly vanish. To get the counts back, I have to Quit and reopen Mail. This started when I upgraded to Yosemite.

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

    If that doesn't work, try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • Sort Mail by Number of Messages per Sender

    Is it possible to sort mail by the number of messages per sender, in descending order with the the greatest number on top, etc. and if so, how?
    Thank you!

    At the moment you can do this using the "setmsgperconnect" command, however the setting is global so it will apply to all destinations, not just Yahoo. From what we've seen at other customers the impact of dropping this to 5 for all destinations is generally not noticeable.
    We're considering adding this into destination config, although at this stage there's no ETA on it.

  • Error message: 450 [Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment]

    Hello Support,
    I have a vbscript which does some database query. i see from the log that script quits with the below error.
    Error message: 450 [Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment]
    but when i execute the same query directly on database, it gives me correct result. also i see that not all the time script quits with this error.
    Does anyone have idea how to troubleshoot it?
    -KAKA-

    i see. i know at which line it fails as error handling is done and will be written in the log.
    sQuery_Prod = "select object_text from sto_ov_externalnode where name = '" & NodeId & "'"
    oRecordSet_Prod.Open sQuery_Prod, oConnection, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
    if err.number <> 0 then
    LogWrite ("Unable to run query")
    LogWrite ("Query: [" & sQuery_Prod & "]")
    LogWrite ("Connection string: [" & sConnect & "]")
    LogWrite ("Error message: " & err.number & " [" & err.description & "]")
    wscript.quit(1)
    end if
    and this piece of code write following in the log.
    07.10.2014 16:55:03:Unable to run query
    07.10.2014 16:55:03:Query: [select object_text from sto_ov_externalnode where name = '{B10255CF-F618-45FB-99BC-31A57D747702}']

    07.10.2014 16:55:03:Error message: 450 [Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment]
    Where as i can run query "select object_text from sto_ov_externalnode where name = '{B10255CF-F618-45FB-99BC-31A57D747702}'" successfully directly on database.
    also in the next cycle same query will be successfull within script too.
    Does this help in understanding the problem?
