Download of messages is always present in Mail

The status of "Download Messages" is still present in the Mail.  It appeared since I first installed El Capitan and am 10.11.4 running on my MacBook Pro.  Any ideas of what is the cause?  I have found no solution to questions of similar type on these forums.

Thanks in advance,

Jimmy

  • Fed up with Mail. When I open mail it says it is downloading the messages, it can be 2, 3 or more and that is true for a long time. I have to close and reopen to get the content of the messages. Often the mail charge the same messages.

  • mails got "year error occurred downloading this message."

    I recently got a HP Touchpad 3.0.2 running webOS.  I have a Yahoo.com and Yahoo.com.hk installation on the touchpad. Now I see there is that emails cannot display the contents of the email, with the message "year error occurred downloading this message." I pressed the button reload, but doesn't seem to work. I removed the two accounts Yahoo and they readded once again, after synchronization, there are still e-mail messages showing the same problem.  For some of these emails, if I tried to read it again, it could ultimately fetch the content after a few tries.  Some never worked.

    I have these added to my palm pre email yahoo accounts, but not this problem on text recovery. Does anyone have seen this problem on Touchpad email?

    Best regards

    I did a full erase on the Touchpad.  Now, emails are back to normal.

  • Thunderbird 31 will not download the messages from the pop server (to 24 worked) CAUSED by Avast

    TBird updated to version 31, it will not download the messages of my pop server. I can send, but not download messages. I restored Win (7) at an earlier date to return to the version 24 of Tbird, and everything worked OK.

    TBird later Auto-setting to update itself (ugh!) back to 31, and we don't go again, no E-mail download. I changed the settings to Win firewall, even tried that turned off completely for testing, without any difference. Retarted Tbird and win several times, no go. It's extremely frustrating. Does anyone actually * test * software updates before releasing these days here?

    TBird works very well for me in Linux Mint 16, but this glitch under Win 7 just jumped to the top with the upgrade to 31.

    Thanks for your suggestions, you can offer!

    the typical suspects are AV and firewall software.

  • GMAIL: I don't want to download ALL messages

    Hello

    I really want Thunderbird to work for me, but I don't know if he can. I have three addresses, a personal gmail and labour two, and I've been using gmail itself in order to coordinate the three. It does not work for me so I would use Thunderbird. The problem is, whenever I try to add my gmail account to my Thunderbird it downloads all of his messages. I thought that IMAP is designed so that e-mail messages are NOT downloaded? My gmail account takes more than 50 GB of space, and I can't allow me to download it. So is it possible to have Thunderbird acts as INTERFACE to my gmail account without HAVING to download a message?

    Thank you..!
    Best,
    Nick

    You can configure Thunderbird not to save local copies, but it may then become unbearably slow when you browse through your messages.

    Tools | Accounts settings | {Select your gmail account} | Synchronization and storage

    Uncheck "keep messages for this account on this computer. Also look at advanced, on the same page of settings and make sure that all files are unchecked.

    She can speed up things a bit if you right-click on the account, select new query and select only the records you want to see.

    For most people with your query, I would say that 'use webmail' (i.e. the google Web site), but I must say that I find it unpleasant to use. I assume you are also less satisfied with it?

  • Cannot automatically download new messages and auto answer with out-of-Office message must manually check for new messages, so he can do

    I use Mozilla Thunderbird 31.3.0. I know how to create a message filter, to implement a response message automatic, but impossible to get Mozilla to automatically download new message and auto reply with the message in the filter, unless I have manually check for new messages, this is the only way to make it work. I looked online and can't seem to find an answer to that particular question. According to everything I found, I have the right boxes checked in the server settings: automatically check for new messages at startup, check new messages, check for new messages every x amount of minutes. It's one thing to have leave my computer and open Thunderbird for this works, but having to manually check for new messages get the AutoReply to work defeats the whole purpose of having an automatic response, because I use them for vacations, holidays, etc. I wondered if there are security settings that cause this problem, but if so, I don't know what changes to do to them. Thanks in advance for any help. It drives me crazy.

    I find it a little odd that Thunderbird does not mail on the calendar, you may have an add-on or antivirus program that prevents this.

    Now shift while you start Thunderbird will begin with disabled modules to check if the messages are automatically.

    By air is to the right, use the autoresponder Verizons. This link might help with this http://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/highspeed/account+tools/email+tools/questionsone/85621.htm#
    You say that not having is not such a context in Thunderbird is something that needs fixing. This idea comes across because Outlook has such an option. what most people don't know of it only works with Exchange server. There is no "vacation response" in the specifications of the mail server so every server implements differently.

    As all cars have a radiator, you can't take any radiator, and simply put, they are subtly different even if they perform the same purpose. Goes same for stakeholders of vacation, they perform the same function, but they differ between brands of e-mail server software.

    Thunderbird leaves the server end to expose the feature, because they are really the only ones who understand what they were doing. Outlook exposes the option and especially greys out.

  • Download new messages (pop)

    Many old messages in Thunderbird are corrupt. Options to attempt a repair of the Database sqlite do not look attractive, so that's what I want to do:

    Step 1: delete all messages from TB or create an empty TB that was just my message filtering rules

    Step 2: connect to my e-mail provider (Google Gmail) and have tuberculosis re-download all messages, including those that I sent. And, of course, properly classify them according to the message filters.

    Gmail has all the messages that I need (I delete unwanted messages expired from there, so the working set isn't too bloated spam), so even though there may be 10,000 messages to download, it is a task of acceptable size.

    BUT I tried both ways, and TB and Gmail together seem to know what messages I already downloaded and will not download again.

    Obviously, Miss me a kind of FORCE RESYNC option. I hope it exists, and you can point me to it.

    Thank you!

    If you decide to remove all previously downloaded emails and redownload all - see previous answer-

    Delete all old messages first compact files, then delete the popstate.dat file.

    After you remove the messages but before you start to download, compact folders to remove all traces of marked as deleted messages. This includes deleted and junk folders. The "Sent" folder only has copies on your computer, in order to not to delete these emails unless you want to.

    If you need a backup of your profile folder see info here:

  • Why send is download 250 messages every time I check for new messages?

    Since the upgrade to iOS 9 on my iPad and iPhone I'm drowning in old email!  My POP with Bell (sympatico) account has eight years of my emails on their server. When I check for new mail, my devices download 250 messages each time.  I tried various options in parameters (pressure, extraction etc.) does not. Bell's response is to delete all messages.  There is no option in 'manage my storage' and the mail app uses 1 GB! This is not the case on my computer, so I think the problem might be with iOS 9. Mail is now trying to synchronize with the server?

  • Incorrectly includes messages in the junk e-mail folder

    For several weeks now, Mail puts bad messages in the junk e-mail folder.  These are messages (such as the Financial Times Morning News and others) where I have the email address in my contacts list.  I don't find a way to mark the message as "not spam."  I move mail in the Inbox, but the Mail does not get the indicator - not - learn and keeps putting these messages in the junk e-mail folder.  (I have email addresses in my contacts list and have enabled the trust to senders in my contacts list.)

    I sent my spam filtering which fixes some problems, but it is always the case.

    What should do?

    Thank you in advance.

    Unless it's grey/navy/red, your e-mail marked as spam most likely provider. All you can try to do is go to the site and see if you can find a way to adjust the filters it.

  • How to stop downloading a message of account online?

    I use Microsoft Vista and Windows Mail.  I download my account online using Windows Mail messages.  A client sent a message with multiple attachments.  It takes a long time to download the message in Windows Mail.  Is there a way to permanently stop the download?  I tried to leave Windows Mail, but every time that I reboot and restart, the download starts trying to complete the download.

    Tried all this and change the message rule.  None of these things worked.

    She should have. Call your service provider and see if they can remove the server.

    A Server POP3 locking can occur on the server, if you check the messages without leaving sufficient time between the two controls.  A recommended minimum interval is 5 minutes.

    I have the same problem - but so far I have not found a solution! My ISP is Tiscali. If I connect & Download emails from my Tiscali account using the PC of my wife (via Windows Live Mail) all right. If I then try (with your PC off) the same thing on my PC (using the same router) I receive messages if I started the 'cold' PC, but when I downloaded the messages, the POP3 server crashes, causing a blockage of POP3. As a result, I can not any more messages (or send) until I turned off the PC and restarted. I tried to set up a completely new user account and also to move all my emails to a safe place, uninstall Windows Live Mail and then re-install, but neither radical movements has solved the problem. I also tried to switch to Thunderbird, but that didn't fix it either. There is obviously something 'beyond' Windows Live Mail which is not challenged after that the last message was received, which causes the POP3 lock. I hope that someone technical who reads this will know where and what it is and we tell how to fix this!
