Mac Mail 10.11.X Issues

[Shaaun]

Hey everyone, i work for AppleCare as a Senior Advisor for Mac and i have been seeing a huge increase of Mail issues with 10.11 and 10.11.1, the issue seems be with most POP accounts when Mail convert to V3 from V2 it seems to corrupt the Mail inboxes and then you would have to either use Time Machine or manually import the Mailboxes into Mail from the /Library/Mail/Mailboxes. Every since 10.11.1 it has seemed to get worse as Apple stated that it fixed bugs within 10.11.1 it looks like mail has got worse.

Have any of you as El Capitan users experienced any issues with POP accounts and how many have had issues let me know.

P.S I downgraded back to 10.10 ❤️

Have started having this one. When trashing or moving emails I continually get error messages and the move fails. (10.11.1)

Restarting mail and/or the mac corrects it for a while but then it comes back.

I would just suggest removing your iCloud account and add it again, and if that does not fix the issue pull Mail from /Library/Containers/com.apple.mail and /Library/Mail then add the account again may be an issue with the Mail account its self.

I am having issues since upgrading to 10.11.1 with my IMAP gmail accounts. I get blank emails and the app freezes such that I have to reboot 5 or 6 times a day.

Mail has been almost unusable for me.

Ive had that issue before i would advise deleting the Account from Internet Accounts in System Pref then i would remove the com.apple.mail folder from Containers that is found in User Library folder this will ensure that there nothing existing of the Gmail account with it been an iMAP account you will not loose any of the emails.

I would erase and re install or just remove anything related to Mail on the Mac or maybe troubleshoot the Mail accounts maybe if you have more then one disable them one at a time and see if it is related to a specific account.

What kind of issues are you having within mail let me know.

In 20 years, the times that I have seen actual Apple employees posting with complaints about Apple, on a non-Apple support site - would be approximately zero.
You don't have to work for Apple to know that the Mail app is not working as reliably as it used to.
If you do work for Apple, then you should not be claiming on a public site that you are an AppleCare senior advisor.
I'm thinking this is not an allowed path for in-company support (or continued employment with Apple, eh?)
AppleCare Advisor, indeed...

I've only had an issue where it decided to jumble all my imap stuff and iCloud mail was unusable from the app. Had to nuke everything and add all accounts as new again, now it's back to normal.

I had all kinds of problems with Mail and Outlook 2016, connecting to iCloud/Outlook/Exchange Server 2013/Office 365 - no Gmail accounts. My fix was to reset my "login" Keychain in the Keychain Access app - I used Little Snitch to monitor and take snapshots of my network activity (on 12 different Macs in my company and home). After resetting the login Keychain, no issues in over two weeks. I had to recreate all of my account information in those two apps, but it's been worth the time.

Macs are using 10.11.1 or 10.11.2B3.

I imported a mailbox with Mail 9.1 and it's in Library/Mail/V3/Mailboxes/import.mbox but I don't see the mailbox in the Mail app? Any idea how to fix?

Somehow mine just started working correctly. I did nothing so it must have been some sort of server issue that was corrected..
