Mac OS Sierra mail IMAP account attachments

Hello

Since I upgraded to Sierra, IMAP e-mail account set up on mac mail does not work how it should. For some weird reason, number of mails in my Inbox attachments disappeared and I can't find them. I can see the attachment on my IOS mail, but not Sierra mail. Can you please help?

Thank you

Hi krmshn,

I understand that after upgrading to Mac OS Sierra, you can't view attachments you receive via your IMAP e-mail account. I know it's important to have access to all your files, so I'm happy to help you.

It is possible that during the upgrade, your IMAP mailbox has been corrupted and prevents you to view these attachments. To resolve this problem, we will rebuild your mailbox.

To rebuild your mailbox:

  1. Open mail
  2. Select the mailbox in the sidebar to the left
  3. Use the Mail menu bar and choose BALL > rebuild. This will take some time depending on the number and size of messages in the Inbox mailbox.

Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. See you soon!

  • No folder "Sent" for e-mail in Windows Live Mail IMAP accounts

    Looks like some other people have this problem, but could not find a clear solution. Basically, I just installed Windows Live Mail and I am trying to Setup IMAP accounts. I had a POP account that worked well and my IMAP accounts send and receive emails fine. The problem is that there is no other folders outside the Inbox for my IMAP accounts. When I go to IMAP folder, I can turn on the drafts, junk, sent, and trash. But these files are placed in the Inbox folder and after sending an email, I still haven't the email placed in the "sent" folder. What happens here? I cannot figure out how move the drafts, junk, sent, and trash folders so that they are side by side with the Inbox and not less.

    solved the problem. No matter who has the same problem, how fix it you is by selecting any e-mail account you want to change, go to properties, then IMAP. Once you're done IMAP your folder "Inbox" root and check off "check for new messages in all folders. Then also check 'special folders Store on the IMAP server. The most important step is to make sure that all the names that you can change are correct and match the names of the folders under your e-mail account. By example, if by default to send it says "Sent items" move to "sent". Do this for every file and it will automatically correct the problem.

  • Problems with mail imap after upgrade of Sierra

    After the upgrade to Sierra, I can't sync my hotmail account in Mail.

    Before even the upgrade, I always had to change my account after each restart settings, as required for authentication SMTP and IMAP user name has been deleted. The same thing happens after the upgrade, but now when I enter the user name and press save I have error message say: A IMAP account already exists.  Only one IMAP account is allowed to be saved.

    Reming the account and recreate it does not help because I find myself in the same situation where the username is missing. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    The username field must my work email address and when I enter it and press on save, the error message comes.

    I am facing a problem as well with Mail on macOS Sierra: account sync not IMAP.

  • I lose mail on my computer when I change my POP IMAP accounts?

    I have mail in the usual places:

    inboxes

    Envoy

    project

    trash

    the in a multitude of folders on my Mac which I think are safe and it is those above, I need to go out and trash or store befor converting IMAP, Yes? They are all out of the BTW server and on my various currencies.  Thank you.

    Mail creates a folder for each account by type (I think), so I think that these messages be left here, but I'm not sure.

    To be sure, I would just move to folders on my Mac. When you created the IMAP account, you can move their return on the IMAP server if you need them there.

    When Mail creates an account, it creates a folder named e-mail address and server, prefixed by type (IMAP, POP).

    So I guess that messages remain in the POP-name@pop_server folder, so that it would create a new IMAP-name@imap_server folder for the IMAP account. But I am pessimistic about it that pulling properly.

    And then there's always more cautious advice to have a full backup before creating the new account.

  • After the upgrade to Windows 10, I can't send mail from my IMAP account

    Upgrade to Windows 10 last night. Make a backup on MozBackup beforehand and restored after the download. I see all my messages in my Roadrunner and Gmail IMAP accounts. I can receive messages from all three types of accounts, but I can't send emails from the IMAP account. I checked that I have the right selected outgoing server. But whenever I try to send, I get the error:

    An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded:
    Action taken not requested: the mailbox not available
    Invalid DNS MX or the A/AAAA resource record.
    Please check the recipient of the "[email protected]" message and try again.

    Although looks like your new update of windows 10 has not the right or any other DNS servers set up. Thus, when Thunderbird is trying to send a mail it it looks like for the server and there is no... you can navigate t goole, com using this machine and one web browser other than the one provided with windows 10.

    The alternative is the email address your shipment to the a in the faulty DNS entry

    Research here shows that this is the case. The field of your shipment at all simply not exist in DNS.

  • Can I change a POP3 account existing IMAP account without setting up a new account requiring a new e-mail address?

    The instructions in Thunderbird help advise that it is necessary to get a new e-mail address to set up the new IMAP accouint. I would use the existing e-mail address.

    It is simply not true. I have Setup several times the same duplicate in Thunderbird, a POP and an IMAP account.

    There are ambiguities about what means 'email account '. In this context, it will be the same email account, but using a different connection to negotiate with the server.

    Once you have set up, your email account exists, whether you use it or not. The default value of 'existence' is likely to be in your email provider's website. You have an email address and there is that a supplied server somewhere who is willing to accept messages for you. If this account is added to Thunderbird does not affect its basic existence.

    In Thunderbird, we talk about setting up e-mail accounts, but here you make an entry to allow Thunderbird to access your account. So tell you him about your e-mail account and where to connect to the server to use. Thunderbird can make this connection using POP, IMAP, or even both at the same time.

    The 'final paragraph' is intended, in my opinion, for those who have had an e-mail account with a single supplier and I now turn to another provider and a new account e-mail (address). This is a warning that if they just delete the old account in Thunderbird, its content will fade. You must keep the content by copying them elsewhere before deleting the account. In fact you don't need to remove the old account , but you will be regularly harassed by Thunderbird complaining about his inability to connect to the server.

    Go to file | New | Existing e-mail account, add your account again but let Thunderbird select "IMAP".

    Now copy (select, drag-and-drop or use the right-click |) Move to) the content from your old account POP-connected to the new. I'm assuming that you change in IMAP because you want to access your messages from more than one device, so want some, if not all of your accumulated messages visible.

    If for some reason you are not able to set up IMAP-connected version until you have deleted or closed the older POP login account, then you can instead store messages from the account based on POPS in Thunderbird local folders, delete the old account POP, then add your account to e-mail again but this time it allows to select an IMAP connection. Then you can move your messages to local folders into folders to the new account.

    Today, mail started crashing on a few other issues. Then, finally, he crashed altogether and will reopen; whenever I try to open the application, I get a "Mail quit unexpectedly" dialog and dump. I think it's the most relevant information:

    Hi PTDiMarzio,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

    You can correct Mail Mac OS X 10.12 Sierra does not ("Mail quit unexpectedly") by removing the folder container "com.apple.mail.savedState." Mac OS X saves the locations of the window and documents open most programs to restore them when the program is started after you quit smoking. Sometimes after upgrading from Mac OS X to the latest version, there may be some problems of manipulation with the prior consent of the State of the mail which could lead to Sierra registered mail is not an answer and crashing.

    How to remove the Mail from the saved state:

    1. Force quit Mail app ('Application is not responding do not"question!).
    2. Go to the Finder.
    3. Hold the Option key and select 'library' in the menu 'go. '
    4. Go to the folder 'containers > com.apple.mail > data > library > state saved application' and move the folder called "com.apple.mail.savedState" to the trash.
    5. Empty the trash.
    6. Restart your Mac.
    7. Mail recovery.

    Hope this will help.

  • In Mac Os Sierra why is he suddenly slow opening of folders of bookmarks in the sidebar of Safari?

    Since the installation of Mac Os Sierra I'm suddenly affected by a very slow opening and closing bookmark next to Safari bar files when I click on them.  Regularly, it takes 3 seconds for a file to open or close to display the list of bookmarks in a file.  Does anyone else know this?  Trying to solve the problem, I have repaired the Mac HD, emptied all my caches in the library in the Finder, reset the PRAM and am now ideas.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in the Preferenes system, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.
