Hi Chris, Here's another suggestion. If you're missing a number of messages, getting incorrect message counts, or not able to move messages into mailboxes, then it's possible that the Mail database has gotten corrupted. The standard solution is to rebuild your mailbox(es). Select the mailbox (or mailboxes) you want to rebuild (e.g., your Inbox), then go to "Mailbox" menu of your Mail menu bar, and arrow down to the "Rebuild" option. It will take a short while (some minutes) to complete depending on the size of your mailbox. (So if you are trying to access the latest posts in your messages table before this is completed, you may find the most recent post is from a few months ago). I subscribe to MobileMe, and a sign that I might need to rebuild my mailboxes is when a message doesn't show up in the Inbox on my Mac, but is there in the Inbox of my MobileMe mail account when I check it through the web interface.
For the number of posts that we get about mail, I'd recommend getting the "Take Control of Apple Mail in Snow Leopard" guide from the sellers of the "Take Control" series: http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/snow-leopard-apple-mail These guides are very good, and include some information that I haven't seen in other sources. They're issued without DRM, and if you buy them from the publisher, you can get them in multiple formats (e.g., PDF and ePub), and also re-download them (in different formats) at later times. You also get all minor update revisions free, if you check for updates, and usually get a discount on the new versions. Most of the guides list for about $10, but there are also discounted bundles. There's also a Take Control Guide for Switching to the Mac that a number of new Mac users seem to like. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Jun 10, 2011, at 20:10, Chris Snyder wrote: > Hi Greg, > Nope.
