E-mail accounts changed in IMAP on El capitan

Hi, I have an old Macbook (2009), and recently I upgraded the operating system of Cougar to El Capitan. Most of the things are works well but Mail causes me problems. I read many others Mail doubts in El Capitan, but my problem seems to be different.

I have several accounts of my ISP more than one Gmail account, accessible from Mail. The Gmail account is still OK, but none of my ISP accounts will now receive mail, if all will always send. I think that's what happened (even though it sounds crazy).

Mail seems to have created new IMAP accounts, corresponding to the old POP accounts and transferred all the e-mails stored in these new accounts. But as my ISP uses a POP server, these accounts cannot receive if they can still send. Former POP accounts are still there, empty and inactivated (so I have two of each account, one IMAP, POP). When I've reactivated a that I was able to send and receive from it, provided that incoming mail was responding to an e-mail sent from this POP account. But otherwise, when I just send an email to this address, it is not received, probably because it goes to the new IMAP account.

Thus, the upgrade of the El Capitan has really drunk much upwards and I don't know why, and I don't know how to fix it. I don't know how to change IMAP accounts toward POP, but I fear that if I close the IMAP accounts I can lose all emails in the reception and sent items box and still not be able to receive emails in pop account.

Can someone help me understand what's happening please, and how can I get Mail back to how it was before? Thank you.

Are you sure that your ISP does not offer IMAP service. El Capitan is trying to determine what the most appropriate service and configures Mail accordingly. He "asks" the ISP what to configure. It can offer IMAP, but your accounts are set up for the pop.

If she didn't really need IMAP, you can then change back to pop. With IMAP, messages remain on the server, so all you have in your Inbox would remain on the server. However, to be sure, create a new mailbox store in the section on my Mac. Move all messages to these mailboxes before removing IMAP accounts.

When you have reconfigured everything, you can move messages in the mailboxes, you have created and put them in their appropriate accounts pop folders

    No, if you have an imap account configured, they must all be of pop email accounts, then you would have a unique set of default folders.

    In your current configuration, you would have one set of personal folders (for pop mail) and a second set of Imap folders

  • IMAP e-mail accounts went into Mail after upgrade of the Sierra

    I have three accounts of mail main I use, everything set up as IMAP accounts on my server of companies. I access it with four devices - 2013 iMac, iPhone 6, iPad (generation 3d) and a MacBook Pro 2010. I did the upgrade of Sierra on the MacBook Pro and, if my email seems to operate normally (inboxes and messages are still there - if I delete something from a box on the MBP, it appears in the trash on other devices, mail received as usual, etc.), when you go into Preferences-> accounts IMAP accounts make their appearance is no longer Although I see them as POP (which they were initially put in place as, but those who have been disabled when I have everything changed in IMAP and I just have not deleted.) They still show as inactive).  I also have an IMAP to iCloud account and who shows up as usual.

    Any thoughts?

    Check in your library > Mail folder. You see a V3 folder? If so, you always see your IMAP accounts listed? You must have a V4 folder now with your data.

    In Mail > Preferences > account, you can click on - to remove the accounts. This will bring you to system preferences > Internet accounts. Delete the account and add it as IMAP.

    Note: When you remove a POP account it also deletes all the data in the POP Inbox, drafts, Sent, Trash, and junk. You can save these data just in case he deletes also server when the account is deleted.

  • How to change the default e-mail account

    I have 4 email accounts configured in Mail.app. When you compose a new message, it will be by default the account for the selected mailbox, which is great. However, when no particular mailbox is selected (when you view the Inbox combined for example), it is the default account. I want the default to another account.  How can I tell Mail.app account to use?

    Changing the order of the mailbox makes no difference. There is a preference that would allow me to have all new messages come from a certain account, but I don't want that. I want to its default value of the box running mailbox if it exists. I want to just change the value by default when there is no current mailbox selected.

    It is has got to be a way to do that, right?

    Mail > Preferences > accounts (select your main account) > account number > AccountType IMAP 'email address '.

    In your list of aliases move to the top of the list, your primary e-mail address.

  • Cannot process multiple IMAP in Surface RT e-mail accounts

    I have a domain, say mydomain.com, with multiple e-mail addresses, mail @ mydomain.co, john @ admin @ mydomain.com, mydomain.com and so on.

    I set up the Imap account in the Mail of RT application to john @ mydomain.com and the result was that I saw all the email accounts set up under this domain name. It's OK in a way that I can see the emails for all e-mail accounts, but I can send only one of them, john @ mydomain.com.

    I tried to set up another account Imap mail @ mydomain.com, but I received a message that it has been already implemented.

    I searched for a way to change the address in the reply Mail application but could not find it. This is not a very satisfactory solution as I want to send the mail or john or admin separately via the Mail app.

    I tried to set up Imap in Outlook.com but he doesn't accept that accounts pop. I put in place of Pop accounts in Outlook.com and Imap in the Mail application but sending emails to a selected account does not work, they will all leave hotmail.com

    How to choose an individual account (with one of the several prefixes) to send an e-mail via the Mail application?

    Edit: I found a solution.

    A shipping method is open IE10 desktop and page outlook.com via hotmail.com, live.com, msn.com, etc and use the system to send POP he can select any account individual messaging within the same domain. Emails sent from yourname @ Hotmail.com on behalf of anothername @ mydomain.com which is not very professional.

    The Mail app is useless for sending. It shows IMAP accounts installed via email "accounts" under a section for mydomain.com (as distinct from the Hotmail section) for a quick reading of emails and it shows outlook.com POP accounts in the section of Hotmail. The Mail app doesn't send anything to the answer either by using in the Imap section for mydomain.com or POPS in the Hotmail section, because the sending account is never what you want and there is no way to change this. You send either hotmail.com instead of mydomain.com or the wrong account in mydomain.com.

    This is all very confusing. You need to install POP via outlook.com and IMAP email "accounts". Use the Mail app for quick reading, and open the outllok.com IE10 page to send or answer.

    Hi John,.

    When you set up several accounts IMAP in the mail and are invited for more details into account. Try adding additional accounts without completing the user name field.

    The Mail app you will only send to the addresses for e-mail addresses of account (s) that is / are setup in the mail. If you have several e-mail accounts settings, you can select witch account that a message will be sent.

  • How can I change the e-mail account in Firefox, it uses, when I send the email from a Web site?

    When I click on an e-mail link in a page, it comes up with a box asking if I want to use gmail or outlook, which I did not? I did not have this problem on my other computer. I need to know, in Firefox, how to change this option to use my e-mail account of Qwest. Not sure I'm explaining properly. Thank you

    The mailto: protocol automatically asks you what you want to use when you click mailto: links. Default value for me on Ubuntu is Thunderbird.

    You can't exactly use your e-mail address for the to do directly from Firefox (Firefox is not a messaging application), but you really need to sign in to your account of Qwest and copy / paste the e-mail address of the recipient.

    Another thing to do is to synchronize your mail from Qwest for Thunderbird, then when you want to use mailto:, you can choose Thunderbird with ease.

  • Password changed on a Safari but Yahoo Mail account, I cannot save the new password and username.

    Yesterday, I changed my password to a Yahoo Mail account but Safari on iMac OSX 10.7.5, (6.1.6) won't let me save the new password.  Now, I have to type my username and then auto Safari fills the old password.  I can access my emails by typing the correct password, but I can't find a way to update Safari to remember the new password or user name.  I had a look on some forums and followed the advice given there, but none of them have worked:-check that the username box and password is checked; Delete the entry in the preferences of Safari; Check the drive in disk utility and click on repair disk permissions. Click on "Repair" in S.o.s. keychain and add the password etc in the keychain.  Remove all data from the Web site and clear the history.  Switch off and unplug before returning.  Can anyone help, please.

    Hello...

    You must remove the old keychain.

    Open Keychain Access located in Applications > utilities

    Then select passwords on the left.

    Type the name of your e-mail account Yahoo in search field top right of Keychain Access window.

    Then right or control click the keychain, and then click Remove.

    Now on Safari, go to Yahoo, sign in with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save the data in a new keychain. The next time you visit this site, Safari should automatically fill your login for you.

    When you try to change my password, it goes to a phone number. This phone number has been changed, how do I enter it? Hold reset the password for the e-mail account on my old password.

    This depends on your e-mail provider - the people who gave you your e-mail address - which is probably not Mozilla. Contact with them and find out if they have another way, you can reset your password.
