#Spamsieve does not remember windows#
Not sure if this will work for everyone, I am no Apple expert but after downloading El Capitan was horrified to find all my emails and folders had disappeared, was looking to take the computer through the Time Machine back to upgrading but saw this solution on here and tried it, it worked for me but the windows I expected to open didn’t! I must point out that I upgraded at 3pm the previous day and went through this process at 9am the following morning – not sure if that will make any difference. After doing this I restarted El Capitan Mail and it worked.

I set up mail on an older Mac (leaving messages on the server so as not to lose them) and I could see the real messages in the inbox and delete one. PS It doesn’t have to be web mail, it can be any access to your mail where you can actually see the inbox with messages in it. So far this has worked for me, but as they say, the mileage varies. Go to web mail (access your inbox via a browser with same login as in Mail) It didn’t fix Mail for me which sometimes gets caught in a loop of “apparently” downloading huge numbers of messages (which don’t exist).

Others suggested removing the evelope index and rebuilding the database This is probably a good idea. A number of people suggested rebuilding mailboxes, which doesn’t fix all problems but may fix some. I experienced a lot of Mail problems after upgrading to El Capitan. I tried doing the same thing with Gmail with the same results (and I already have a Google POP account) so it’s not just Yahoo. I put in my address and it creates an IMAP account for me instead of giving me the option of creating a POP account. Under “Add Account” I click “Other mail account”. That’s when I discovered I can’t create a POP mailbox anymore.

I logged off Yahoo Mail in my web browser and logged back in using the same password and it worked fine in the browser, just not via the Mac Mail program.įinally I thought, fine, I will delete this mailbox in OS X and build a new one and see what happens. Worked fine for the last 8 years but now… I tried everything I could think of including erasing the keychain password entries related to Yahoo mail. I use Yahoo mail and had my Mail program on my MBP set up for POP3. It kept asking for my password and then telling me it was incorrect. I had been having problems with Mail in OS X 10.11, El Capitan. I cannot create a new POP mailbox anymore! In some situations, you may find the port number or mail server address has changed once the new settings have been detected from the mail server, and the problem will resolve itself accordingly. Not all users encounter this issue with Mail app after installing an OS X update, and though the reason is unclear, it’s possible the problematic setups had configured an email account some time ago, and could be using legacy settings for a specific mail server. SMTP mail accounts, these solutions should do the trick. That should resolve whatever Mail problems have occurred in OS X after installing OS X 10.10.4 or OS X 10.11 El Capitan, but if you continue to encounter trouble, specifically with

If you’ve completed this and OS X Mail app still hangs on launch but does not offer any obvious errors, your next troubleshooting step should be to rebuild the Mailbox as described here, which should resolve that issue. Yes relaunching and re-checking a box is a little frustrating and can be a little tedious, but it does seem to work to resolve any problems with Mail app, as the automatic detection of mail account settings will adjust server settings to accommodate the Mail app configuration. Repeat this process for other email accounts in Mail app if necessary.If it is checked, uncheck it, then quit and relaunch Mail app, then go back to the same preference setting and check the box again, then relaunch Mail app yet again.If it is unchecked, check it – then relaunch Mail app.Look for the box titled “Automatically detect and maintain account settings”, then do as follows depending on what situation you find:.Now go to the “Accounts” tab, and select the email account which the problem is occurring for, then click on the “Advanced” tab.Open Mail app in OS X, then pull down the “Mail” menu and go to “Preferences”.Fix Problematic Mail Account Settings After OS X Updates
