Mail ignores rules

I have over 100 rules in Mail who run the incoming emails to specific mailboxes. Recently, all free mail that would normally go to my default, general, all-purpose mailbox is directed to a rarely consulted rule governed mailbox specific. I have exceeded the number of rules that can administer the messaging? How to restore "normal"?

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.

  • Mail.app rules prevent any actions after you have moved the message

    If the rule in the Mail.app contains action Message go to any folder, then all the other measures of the rule does not apply automatically. Only if I hit the rules manually.

  • Windows Live Mail message rules

    I have used Message rules in the past but have the need for a new application that I can't understand.  One of the filters for incoming emails is to "respond with the Message.  When this choice is enabled, I wonder for a file name.  I created a .txt file with my message of your choice and saved and WLM then indicated the path to the message.  Yet, when I test the rule to my own email account... without glory.  If someone knows the procedure step by step for this part of Windows Live Mail Message rules work... I would be happy to know.

    Thank you.

    But not sure you have checked the "where the to line of contains people" and "where the CC line contains people".

    These are a bit old but give the idea of basis - (OE) - http://www.am-novice.com/US/Computer/Logiciel/outlook_express/out_of_office_outexpress.html and (WLM) http://emailclient-expert.blogspot.co.uk/2011/04/out-of-office-reply-live-mail.html

    EDIT 1 - although having tried everything, I can't answer either :-(

    subsequently

    EDIT 2 - I'm working, I think. In the rule description message between "to" and "cc:" I had to change the AND from where. Then I got an error report telling me that the response has not been sent because he would have been sent to my own account. I don't have any other accounts to test it with.

    PS - is your POP account? He said something about the rules doesn't work don't not on IMAP.


  • Use the rules of mail or rules of Icloud or both?

    Which is better to use, rules of mail or Icloud mail?  If I create an e-mail folder of the Icloud on my Mac account it automatically appear in the Web page for Icloud but rules written on my Mac are not repeated in the page rules to Icloud.

    any advice?

    Thaks keith

    You can write rules more substantial in mail on your Mac, however if your mac isn't on you can end up with junk mail goes somewhere else until she is active, this behavior can be avoided by writing rules to iCloud.com.

    The choice that is best for your needs.

  • MAIL - ignore 'Message Font' change and returns by default

    If anyone else here is having a problem where if you replace him do 'Message' by default Helvetica to something else, and he returns with each reboot, the solution is simple. For me, it was happening on my Mac Pro, but my MacBook Pro was very good.

    Go to ~/Library/Preferences and remove com.apple.mail - shared.plist

    OK, scratch that. It did not work.

    I also deleted the file com.apple.mail.plist in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Preferences/ without result. After a reboot, it is by default in Helvetica.

    All ideas are welcome!

  • How to apply the rule of mail for mac?

    before mac I use windows machine and there is a lot of rule set in outlook mail, but now I have change all the mail to mac mail folder and I want to add my rule also but I serve as outlook e-mail rule:

    my e-mail outlook rule is to follow:

    Apply this rule after the arrival of massage

    where my name is in the cc box

    and where my name is not not in the box of

    and ...@com

    and only this machine only

    Move it to the... folder

    Please, help me mail from mac game.

    Mail rules apply to the new unread messages in the Inbox only. Open Mail preferences, select the rules tab and add a rule. The rules are different in the messaging applications, but you should have no problem setting up a similar to the one above:

    The illustration below shows something similar to what you have above. What do you do with this problems?

  • Apple Script to apply rules in Mail.app

    • I've created some rules in my Mail.app to change the background color of specific messages
    • And I also created rules in the mail server in order to move the messages to a folder

    For messages in the Inbox folder, everything is fine.

    But if the message has been moved by the server rule in another folder, then rules the Mail.app do not apply (and reasons twisted, this is normal: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH19162?locale=en_US & viewlocale = en_US).

    Then if I apply the rules manually by pressing Command + Option + L < code > < code >, Mail.app rules will apply as they should.

    I want to automate this action. Is it possible with Apple Script? Can you help me with this? The steps would include, I guess that:

    1. Choose the smart folder "today."
    2. Select all messages in this folder;
    3. Perform the action "Rules" for selection.

    < pre >

    using terms from application "Mail".

    Tell application "Mail".

    the value of the message_count in HOW-TO-GET-MESSAGES-FOR-TODAY-SMARTBOX County

    Repeat with i from 1 to the message_count

    the value this_message to article i of MESSAGES TODAY ' HUI-SMARTBOX

    say this_message

    -That's something like the RULES APPLY

    tell the end

    end repeat

    tell the end

    end using terms from

    < / pre >

    If it is not possible for a smart folder, then I want to do, it goes all messages in all mailboxes mailbox (or with messages in the specific mailbox).

    Apparently, this is not possible as long as such action is not be scriptable.

  • E-mail rules disappeared!

    Yesterday, I got several mail hundreds rules I have built over the years. This morning they all disappeared. Pouf! How could this happen, how to fix it and how can I avoid this in the future?

    I can't help but wonder if iCloud is to blame. Thanks to the stupid way that their servers treat passwords, I was forced to close the session and open a session in several times, and one of these events may have caused the erasure.

    PS: There was not previously a feature to attach screenshots?

    Go to Finder and select your user folder. With this Finder window as the windshield, select Finder/display/display options for presenting or order - J.  When the display options opens, check "show the library folder. This should make your visible user library folder in your user folder.  Select Library//Mail/MessageRules.plist. Enter your backup and restore.

    I don't think you can do this with ordinary Thunderbird. But this add-on

    allows you to run javascript or IIRC, launch an external program when a given filter condition is met. So this does not exactly provide an answer to your question, but allows a possible solution. '

  • How to remove a month attached a letter in the Mail folder

    Hello

    I'm a newbie in the knowledge of mac, so please go easy on me :))

    I found that attached a letter is a problem not only for me but also for many mac users, because it takes away a few GB of disk space...

    Tried to Google a way out the manual solutions found alone and I delete the folder where Mail saves attachments in our drive (~/Library/Mail).

    I'm looking for a way automated delete (move to trash) all attachments that are, for example, one month of age.

    Is this possible? How can I do this? Can Automator help? (muggle in Automator too)

  • Yahoo Classic mail buttons do not work

    Firefox version 3.6.18 and Yahoo Classic mail. All the buttons in the browser to check the mail/inbox do nothing (BRA shows blue at the top of the window but status bar loading done indicates). Most is if I right click and select open in a new window.

    Windows 7 starter with java and flash to date. Works with IE8.

    I removed and updated to the latest version 6.0 and still had the same problem. I hate the new interface ad leads with the last mail of Yahoo and is classic as long as I can.

    I know that they are gradually classic Yahoo mail, but in the meantime it is this problem of Yahoo?

    Well, I found my solution today: rule an AdBlock Plus. It was NOT a problem of AdBlock Plus, however! Instead, it was the rule one overzealous who > > I < < added. Something about Firefox v7 and AdBlock do play very well on Yahoo Mail classic.

    I started by disable AdBlock Plus and reload the classic Yahoo Mail page, which then worked. Then I tried "reporting a problem" via AdBlock Plus and it took me through this incredibly cool series, but simple, steps to debug the problem. Quickly, he proved to be an awkward rule that caused the problem, I added. As soon as I disabled my AdBlock Plus rule, BAM! All the buttons started working again, while restoring the AdBlock Plus other, good for Yahoo Mail classic rules.
