Re: One mail blocks user's email account



If it's in the Inbox and you have POP3 enabled, just login and issue POP commands to the server.

open terminal

telnet mail.yourhost.com 110
user username
pass password

list

retr <messaage ID #> (to take a look at the message and make sure it's the correct one)

dele <message ID #>

quit

That should do it..
Quick and painless.

Hi all,

I am using Mac OS X Server 10.2
One of the network users has got problems with his email account.
First of all when he logs in and is able to open the Mail application (most of the times it just quits) he selects messages in the inbox and instead of the content of the email he gets the following:


"The message from (whoever) concerning (subject) has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it"

The account is online and it is trying to fetch email but it is stack there saying "Fetching 1 of 13 emails: subject of the email"

I took the Mail folder for this user and configure al the settings in a local account. I can access all the content of emails in the inbox but the "Fetching 1 of 13 emails: subject of the email" is still there.
So emails cannot be sent or received.


How can I delete this email that is trying to be downloaded but is blocking the whole mailbox for this user?

Thanks in advance

John
