Mail - minor flaws in the El Capitan

• Problem with the mail application after upgrading to El Capitan

  Hello

  I've recently updated to snow leopard at el capitan on a 2009 macbook pro.

  I can't send e-mail from the mail since the upgrade application.

  Incoming mail server address is grayed out in the settings preference of apps under 'Account Information'. It reads "p02 - imap.mail.me.com. My full username iCloud is also grayed out. It doesn't seem to be a way to fix this. I believe that the correct server address should be "imap.mail.me.com".

  The outgoing server address is "stmp.mail.me.com".

  ICloud Drive switch makes no difference. I also tried to remove the iCloud account on the 'Accounts' page under preferences app mail and setting up the account again. Also makes no difference.

  I can send emails with mail on my iPhone application and receive emails on my mac and iPhone.

  Any suggestions on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

  See you soon

  You go to System Preferences-> Internet accounts to fix the details of the server. These things are more fixed inside the Mail application. It may seem strange, but it makes sense, since the accounts are used for email and other services. Now, is there a central location for this.

• Mailboxes are not visible in mail after you run the OS El Capitan 10.11.5 upgrade.

  Mailboxes are not visible in mail after you run the OS El Capitan 10.11.5 upgrade.  The boxes are there (somewhere), and I can save the messages in them.  I can just see them or call back messages on my macbook air.  Structure of messaging and mailbox is intact on my iPad and iPhone, and all messages are recoverable.  Any help to restore the messages on my Mac would be greatly appreciated.

  The mailbox list is divided into categories with such topics on my Mac. When you position the cursor on one of these positions (with the exception of the mailboxes), you should see the Word display / hide it on the right. Please, click on show, if that's what you see.

  In the category of the mailboxes, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small tip of arrow. If the arrow points to the right, click it so that it points downwards.

  Also note that you may need to scroll the list of mailboxes upwards or downwards to see it all.

• I deleted two e-mail accounts in my iMac (El Capitan). I have reinstalled the first without problem. When I tried the second, I got an error message that the account already exists. Any suggestions?

  I deleted two e-mail accounts in mail on my iMac (El Capitan). I have reinstalled the first without problem. When I tried the second, I got an error message that the account already exists. Any suggestions?

  First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

  From the Mail menu bar, you select

  ▹ Connection Doctor window

  In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

  Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

• E-mail from Apple in the preferences (El Capitan) settings is not accepting my password for my email provider, once again?

  E-mail from Apple in the preferences (El Capitan) settings is not accepting my password for my email provider, AGAIN?  This happens with google, aol, etc, etc, etc. The password is never wrong, that it's just something that happens with Apple OS from time to time. Why can't they solve this!  He emerges finally upward, but at the same time, relentless and software Apple alerts does not receive your mail via the mail app which is now linked to the mail, notes, reminders, calendar, etc.  Any thoughts on a fix?  Or should I just kill app Apple mail, once and for all?  So annoying! I now have another 45 minutes on this problem with no resolution!

• The Mail (version 9.2) in El Capitan app keeps about a week of e-mail messages in the Inbox

  Then the application Mail (version 9.2) in El Capitan keeps about a week of messages in the Inbox.  This is different from what I experienced in the Mavericks and earlier versions.  Is there a way to fix this for all e-mails are kept unless that specific deleted?

  This isn't a 9.2 e-mail feature in itself. Some settings must be changed at the same time. Mail is not a parameter to mail to disappear of itself, but it could be defined mail disappear other systems or devices access the same mail server and account.

  It can be caused by access to an e-mail account via IMAP on some systems / peripheral (s) and POP on other (s), according to the system of POP/device settings. (For example, if the system/device access via POP is set to delete messages from the server after a week, then ropes/devices to access the server even not see messages after the device/system POP them deleted from the server.)

• The El Capitan Mail smart folders display bug?

  I upgraded from 10.10.5 to 10.11.6.

  Mail.app is having display problems in smart folders.

  When I click on a smart folder, it lists the previews/messages like this:

  

  As you can see, the content of the Panel overview/list more jammed to the left.

  The only way I found to restore it how it should be, is to adjust the width of this Board. As soon as I set (even by a just a pixel, so be it) messages are again occupy the entire width.

  But if I switch switch to another folder, and then return to a smart folder I "fixed", it will again appear incorrectly. If the "fix" lasts as long as I still watch one of this file.

  I restarted the post, and it has no effect.

  Is this a known bug?

  Is there a suggested way to try to resolve this? Basically, he made unusual Mail to me (or, at least, considerably annoying to use).

  If it's just the smart dance which gives bad try this.

  Exit the Mail.

  In the Finder, select go, then go to the folder and paste the path below into the box and click Go:

  ~/Library/Mail/v3/MailData/SmartMailboxesLocalProperties.plist

  In the window that opens, select the file SmartMailboxesLocalProperties.plist and move it to the trash, but do not delete it. Start Mail and see if it works now.

  In case of problem, you can always leave Mail, open the Recycle Bin, right-click on the file and choose put back to restore and replace the new file created.

  If the above does not work, try this:

  Exit the Mail.

  In the Finder, select go, then navigate to the folder. Copy and paste the path below and click GO:

  ~/Library/containers/com. Apple.mail

  Move the entire folder com.apple.mail to the Recycle Bin, open Mail and test. If all goes well, you can empty the trash. You may need to re create your user settings.

• Mail of the El Capitan grayed out after Migration Wizard menus

  The arrival of my new MacBook Pro (OS 10.11.5) I used the Migration Assistant (MA) to import the data from my old MacBook (OS 10.6). MY did not have identical usernames on both devices, so a new user has been created for the migration.

  After migration, everything seems to work very well in most mail (and some obsolete applications).

  Problem: some menu of messaging options are grayed out on and/or non-functional. Strange thing is that Mail works fine in the other user account, so I guess that's a conflict somewhere, sometimes, preferences will not open. New emails correctly, they appear in notifications and can be opened individually, but I can't open the message viewer.

  Grey of menu items:

    

  What I tried without success:

  -delete all e-mail accounts and add them manually

  -remove mail preferences

  -Remove user library: containers, mail, mail preferences folder

  -disable the user fonts

  -Disable items in user login

  Any suggestions much appreciated troubleshooting.

  Problems like this are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have the wrong permissions. This procedure will check for these files. It makes no changes and is therefore not, in itself, a solution.

  First, empty the trash, if possible.

  Triple-click any where in the line below on this page to select, then copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,sunlnk,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 \) 2>&- | wc -l | pbcopy

  Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Paste in the Terminal window by pressing command + V. The command may take a significant amount of time to run.

  Wait for a new line ending with a dollar sign ($) to appear.

  The output of the command will be a number. It is automatically copied to the Clipboard. Please paste in a response.

  The Terminal window does not display the output. Please do not copy from there.

• Mailed - by-automatically delete the messages in the trash

  I used to set my mail to automatically delete messages in the trash after a week. Since I upgraded my iBook to OS El Capitan (10.11.4 Version), I can't do that.  Why did change that?  I thought that new operating systems were supposed to make it easier, not harder.

  It deletes messages immediately, or not at all? Open Mail preferences and verify the setting it. Do you have other devices with this email account? Have you tried to rebuild the trash?

  Hi Mike,.

  It seems that the e-mail message preview area is hidden in the mail on your Mac mini. The article below was created for Mac OS X Mavericks, but you can use the instructions that it provides to change the size of the message preview area in Mail for OS X El Capitan similarly.

  Change the preview of the message

  Resize the preview area:

  Drag the bar that separates the message list and the preview left or right area.

  Show or hide the preview area:

• Slow mail after upgrade of the Sierra

  Since my upgrade to Sierra, Mail has been slow to load messages.  Before, when I chose a message in mail seems almost instantly in the viewer of allowing me to pass by mail with either the arrow or remove the key quickly. Now when a message is selected, it takes a second or two for the message in the Viewer.  Really boring.  Anyone have any ideas?

  Thank you, Tom

  I can understand how it would be boring. I suggest the reconstruction of the mailbox, or all the mailboxes, according to the following: Mail for Mac: rebuild the mailbox.

  It will take a few moments to complete, based on the total number of messages in the mailbox store. Until he finishes, it is normal to see the content of the overview column Mail flash message or disappear briefly that she rebuilt the message database. It will also slow to mail operation until there finishes.

  It would be prudent to back up your Mac before doing this, but if rebuilding a mailbox causes all e-mail messages that are deleted they were probably not recoverable in any case. I recommend you save in this particular circumstance in an abundance of caution, but it is something that everyone should do.

• How to speed up my MacPro 2009 after the El Capitan updated?

  I have just the El Capitan OS installed on my MacPro machine (2009), and since I did, he managed seriously slow down. Everyone there knows a way to accelerate this return, in addition to becoming a new mac? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I already ran disk utility, cleared out the file cache, done basic diagnostic stuff. Made some power re-creation, Landau, etc. nothing helped.

  Yo mean by slow? Spinning beach ball?
