[MlMt] How do I re-download all messages?

Do I just delete my mail account in MailMate and recreate it?

Post by Ralph Alvy
I am having problems that look like I need to simply have MailMate
download all my message from scratch. Rebuilding didn't help. How do I do
this?

That would work. You could also select the top-level node for the
account in the Sources list, select all of the messages, and use
Message->Reset to make MM forget them all and re-fetch them.

Can't do that. MM never stops refreshing the message list. Looks like I
have to delete and recreate the account.

To delete my mail account in MM, do I do Remove Source on the highest node
in the Sources List?

I removed my mail account from MM successfully and re-created it. MM is
not getting message from the IMAP server. I notice that Sent and Trash
folders in my Smart Mailboxes list no longer see messages in my Sent and
Trash folders in my Sources. The MailBox Type for Sent is Sent Messages
and the MailBox Type for Trash is Deleted Messages. I don't see a menu
item that allows me to change this. I'd like Sent to point to Sent, and
Trash to point to Trash.

Bad typo. I meant to say

"MM is NOW getting messages from the IMAP server."

MM was never able to get all my messages. Kept getting stuck on certain folders. I have, for now, switched to Apple Mail, until I can figure out what to do to get MM running okay again.

During the upgrade some mailboxes did not have the bits set that denote that the mailbox uses the alternate namespace rather than the standard namespace.

Some Mac/Iphone clients saw the namespace change and lost their minds. When the namespace error was fixed the Mac/Iphone clients could not deal with it. Winblows clients that I have tested, Outlook and Thunderbird, see a namespace change and resync.

Uninstalled MM (completely) and reinstalled MM and now all is working
fine again. All messages came in.

This all happened after Tuffmail.com upgraded my IMAP server. Here's
