    Apple Mail Taking 5+ Minutes to Get New Mail

    I was looking up Mail problem posts and didn't quite find one like this. Since I updated MacOS Sequoia, Apple Mail has become very slow to load new messages and it seems to be getting slower. For the last few months, it might take a minute after I opened Mail for it to download my new messages...

    Issue with Mac Mail and AOL Mail

    Anyone else having problems with AOL continuing to ask for the password in Mail? At first I was reluctant to do so, thinking it might be some kind of spam. But if I go ahead with the password, it checks if I'm a robot, I enter the password and then it just keeps recycling between checking for...

    Shared Email Address within a Custom Domain

    I have a custom domain which I use through Apple Mail/iCloud without any difficulty; it works like a charm. What I'd like to do is add an email address to that domain and share access to it with my spouse. So, the address would have the format "meandmyspouse@customdomain.com," and we would both...

    Apple Mail Unread Badge Count

    I believe this was possible at one point in a previous iOS version, but is there any way to have the Mail app display the unread count for specific Mailboxes? I checked Notification settings, set up favorite Mailboxes, but can't seem to figure out if it's possible.

    Unable to export emails from Mail - what do I do?

    I've been trying to export emails from Mail so that I can move them to a new computer. I'm able to export and then import to the new computer, but for some reason, all of the emails are clumped together with a random date (instead of the original dates when they were sent or received). Somehow...

    iCloud Scammer used one of my iCloud aliases to send me aggressive email

    I got a junk (and aggressive, a bit threatening) scam email where the sender spoofed one of my iCloud aliases (that I never use) as both the sender and the recipient. How do they do that? Do they pick up the alias on the dark web (like everything else) or has my Apple iCloud account been...

    Just discovered another annoying "feature"of the Mail app

    The "feature" I'm referring to is far from new, having been introduced with Sierra I believe, but has only recently started to become an annoyance to me. I'm referring to the default option to "Automatically select best account" when sending mail. I've always assumed, wrongly it seems, that an...

    Universal Alternative to Canary mail (with OpenPGP support but without AI)

    Hello! For a long time I used Canary Mail because of its OpenPGP integration and lack of alternatives. Unfortunately, not only have they switched to a subscription-based model, but they've also shifted their focus from security / OpenPGP to AI, which even seems to be enabled by default after...
