Mail won't recieve new messages

Last week MAIL stopped receiving new messages. All the account info is correct, it's connected to the internet and it will still send messages. The new messgaes are there if I log onto the webmail, and they still bounce to my blackberry...but not in MAIL.
The only cause I can think of is that last week the hard drive was filled to capacity and that when MAIL stopped getting the new messages. I quickly cleared up 20GB of space but still no mail. Could the lack of free space have corrupted the MAIL program's abilty to get new messages?
Any ideas of what I can do?

Who is your ISP or email account provider for this account?
If a message cannot be successfully sent by the Mail.app for whatever reason, the message will remain in the Outbox mailbox. A message moved to the account's Sent mailbox is an indication the message was successfully sent.
Open a recent sent message that was reported by the recipient as not being received and at the menu bar, go to View > Message and select Long Headers.
If there is text next to the Message ID field such as:
Message-Id: <[email protected]>
This is another indication the message was sent.
You can contact your ISP or email account provider for the account and provide them this Message-Id number or they may have you forward them this sent message with long message headers for the sent message shown. Your ISP or email account provider for this account should be able to trace the message to it's final destination.
For the most part, a successfully sent message is either accepted or rejected by the recipient's incoming mail server. If rejected for whatever reason, you will receive a return email bounced error message from the recipient's incoming mail server indicating why the message was rejected. Other than that, this indicates the message was accepted by the recipient's incoming mail server and what happens to the message after that is beyond your control.
Regarding the receiving problem, quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded. Delete the MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded file (which may have become corrupt when you didn't have adequate free hard drive space) and empty the Trash.
Launch Mail and if successful, any previously downloaded messages that remain on the server will be downloaded again by Mail along with any new messages available on the server not yet downloaded.

TS2537 Apple Mail won't retrieve new messages

Hi,
I have a user in my company who is using an iMac 27" 3.4GHz OSx 10.6.8 and Apple Mail 4.5 with GoDaddy IMAP settings. Recently all mails after 25/12/2011 are missing in his Apple Mail but it is available on GoDaddy's web mail. I've tried moving [email protected]+Mac-xxxxx from findings in other forums but to no avail. This has also affected the email that is retrieved in the iPad as well.
Can someone help me out with this please?
Thank you very much.

@riiich,
As I last reported, I temporarily 'fixed' it by deleting the account from Apple Mail and creating it again. Thanks to IMAP, Mail then synced all the mail folders (took a couple of hours - I have a lot of mail folders), and then it was working again. For a few days. Then the problem returned - new mail arriving in my Yahoo Inbox would not sync to the Inbox in Apple Mail.
I spent hours trying to resolve it. Changed password. Rebuilt Mail's index. Ran Disk Utility on my hard drive. Etc. Etc. I have a lot of server-side folders (>30), and thought that maybe Apple+Yahoo were screwing up due the large number of folders (a.k.a. mailboxes) to sync. So I migrated a lot of the folders off the server (setting up new mailboxes On The Mac) in which to file my messages. That didn't help. Meanwhile, I started using Yahoo's webmail interface so I could get my new mail. Then one morning (perhaps a week later), the inbox spontaneously started syncing again. I had done nothing the day before - it just started working overnight.
Based on this experience, I concluded that the F***-up is entirely on the Yahoo side and has nothing to do with my Mac nor Apple's software. My ultimate fix has been to abandon Yahoo Mail. Prior to Christmas, I moved my mail account to another service provider who provides IMAP. Then configured my Yahoo account to forward all incoming mail to the new server (which has a new e-mail address). Since doing so, I've had zero problems. All messages sent to my old Yahoo address get immediately forwarded to the new mail server, which has been syncing to Apple Mail with no problems at all.

Mail won't show new message windows

This is weird.
I needed to email a photo to a friend. I drug the photo from iPhoto to the Mail icon in the dock and nothing happened (a new message window didn't pop up with the photo attached) I tried this 3 times and still got nothing. I swiped to another desktop (in Lion) and i could see the new message windows, all three of them, with the picture. When I landed on a space they disappeaered again. When I swipe to a new space they appear and then disappear when I land on that space.
I've shut mail down but haven't done a full restart. Any other ideas why this didn't work and then now how do I fix my problem?
Thanks…
Here's a picture of what I'm talking about…I don't know why it's upside down?!

I've never seen anything like this reported before. Verify/repair your disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
If the problem persists, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that the Console application displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. Try to reproduce the problem, and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that could have been written there as a result. Do you see anything that could provide a clue as to what's going on?
Now, try this:
1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there. Does the problem happen there as well?

Mac Mail won't receive new messages

I have three devices, an iMac; an iPhone and an iPad. I also use iCloud (but I hate...or don't want to have to go to the web and login to iCloud there to read my mail...otherwise, what's the point of having Mail on all of your devices, right?!?).
There are so many discrepancies between the three devices synching my Mail. I have emails I read on my iPad and then deleted some. They show as deleted/read on my iPhone, but they still show as unread on my iMac. Additionally I noticed that my iMac hasn't received any new mail (including the mail I can see on my iPhone)...for an hour! I've clicked the "send/receive" mail button a dozen times, but nothing...I can't find a place in Preferences that should correct this. (And yes, my internet connection is working...)
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks, Ernie... I didn't realize we could control click in the inbox. It just showed me how much space I had used up in each folder.
On a whim, I deleted the account, ran a disk utility, then rebooted. Then I re-added the account, and so far, it SEEMS to be working alright... Got my new email, am able to send out--it seems to be working now.
Thanks!

Outlook 2010 won't update new messages unless you update folder

Hi,
Outlook 2010 sp1 with Exchange 2010 latest sp.
Scenario:
Some users are not receiving emails unless they click on update Folder. Once they do emails come in.
Troubleshooting:
No virus scanning outlook folder.
Delete the profile with OST and re-created it.
Send immediately when connected is enabled.
Cache Exchanged mode is enabled (Must be ...there are 15000 users with mailboxes here).
(If Cache mode is disabled everything works fine) This is not an option for us.
Download shared folders whether it is enabled or disabled still the same problem.
Help please,
Alexis

I would suggest your to start Outlook with /cleanips switch and check behavior,

NOW-Yahoo Mail won't move messages to folders. Help, please?

Original iPhone with 2.0 software . . .
When I try to move a message (from the inbox, for example) into one of my yahoo Mail folders, I get this message:_"Unable to Move Message."_
Is this happening to you? Is there a solution??
Thank you for your help.
Allan

Have you tried deleting the Yahoo account and readding it? Was it working earlier(with the update)? I know Yahoo has been very up and down with various things so possibly there might be a server related problem if it just started.
You could also possibly try to reset the network settings and then try to move the messages.

Yahoo mail folders not updated automatically

I have configured my yahoo mail box on the new iPad. I have a lot of folders in yahoo mail, which do not get updated with new mail on the iPad, like they do on the web. Is there any way to make this work?

Had same problem. Seems that a specific email is preventing loading. Was able to clear by going to Yahoo mail in iPad Safari and puling up and down on mail folder until showed all mail from today and back beyond the date of the stuck email date. Once email for the previously stuck folder showed all mail in iPad Safari, iPad mail app email folder showed all current email also.

I have Yahoo Mail synced on my new macbook pro. Keeps asking for password

I have Yahoo Mail synced on my new macbook pro. It it consistently asking to re-enter the password. Does anyone else have this problem? I have deleted it and reinstalled it several times. It did not do this on my previous macbook.

Does anyone else have this problem?
There are several similar reports on this site every day.
I've never used Yahoo mail and my knowledge of it is second-hand. This is what I've been able to gather.
If you have a free Yahoo account, POP access to incoming mail from a mail client such as Apple Mail is not supported. A free account is accessible only through IMAP (and then perhaps only on mobile devices — the documentation is unclear) or the web interface.
As for a paid Yahoo account, or an account through an ISP such as AT&T, you must enable POP access through the web interface. I've seen reports that you must periodically (every two weeks?) log in to the "Manage Account" page on the website to confirm your identity.
I've also seen reports that eliminating all UPPER CASE letters from the password, and shortening it to no more than 7 characters, may help. That's barely, if at all, adequate for security, and you must be sure to choose the password randomly. It should not be easy to type or remember.
That said, so many problems with Yahoo mail are reported that I can't recommend using Mail as a client for it. You might get better results with another mail client, such as Thunderbird. If not, just use the webmail interface. That's how it was designed to work. Better yet, don't use Yahoo at all.

Mail not checking for new messages in IMAP subfolders

Hello everyone,
I am disappointed to see that Mail version 3.0 (912.1/912) displays the same wrong behavior as pre-Leopard versions in the way that it fails to check for new messages in subfolders on an IMAP account (it only checks the INBOX).
One has to manually open each and every subfolder and wait a few seconds to force a resync and display any new message placed there by server-side rules processing.
So far I had been using the excellent IMAPCheck (http://macapps.perniciouspenguins.com/imapcheck/) but this is no longer supported by 10.5.
Does anybody have a workaround for this? Or the power to bug Apple engineering enough to get this solved once and for all ;o)
Thanks much,
teedeepee

This problem is not solved for all cases.
This solution only applies to server-side filtering/redirecting of messages into imap folders.
I'm having trouble with client-side mail.app rules moving new messages into imap folders and not having the new message counts displayed.
This wasn't a problem in the previous version of mail.app.
Here's to hoping that Apple posts a patch to fix this problem soon...

Mail Icon shown 1 new message but I cant find it.

My Mail icon shows 1 new message but I have double checked every folder in Mail and cant find it. Could anyone help its really buggin me.

Greetings,
There isn't a new message, but this indicates that your Mail index needs to be rebuilt. Select All the messages in that account (Command-A) and then choose Message>Mark as Read (if it doesn't give you that option, then choose Mark as Unread and then go back and choose Mark as Read). If you select the account in question, then go to Mailbox>Rebuild, Mail will rebuild the index for that account; then you shouldn't have any new messages indicated.

Mail Version 5.3 (1283) won't fetch new messages

It appears that my Mail 5.3 won't automatically fetch new messages from my companies Exchange server. After I take the account offline and immediatley online, new messages appear that I have missed. (They did in fact appear on my iPhone, but not in Mail)
Is this is common issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

Ya...got the same problem. - Not only that but messages sent through Yahoo are not decoded properly in 64bit, UTF-8...I just get hundreds of line of code and jpeg images are not shown - what is going on?
