Re: "Error when fetching message"
Okay, what is the best way of deleting iCloud IMAP messages that won't cause PM to freeze from "Invalid message number?" Is there a way im PM to delete?

Error when fetching message
and Invalid message number is what I get when I try to access my IMAP icloud account. I had deleted some of my icloud/me/mac.com messages yesterday both on the webside and by using Mail. My POP3 addresses work fine, but connecting to that IMAP account freezes PowerMail. Have run all the PM First Aid measures. Tom Miller
PowerMail smtp error
Hi all, Suddenly I can't send email through my godaddy account in PowerMail. I can still send email using a different smtp server, and I can still send email using the godaddy web interface. My smtp settlings look like this: outgoing smtp server: smtpout.secureserver.net ;authenticate as user' is checked user and password are entered correct 'use secure connection' is NOT checked 'use port' is checked and '3535' is entered These exact setting are working on another machine, and were working on Friday on this machine. I have already tried the following: I ran a PowerMail First Aid and checked the first 4 boxes, and also checked the two boxes involving 'trouble sending and receiving'. Restarted the computer. Entered a new account in PowerMail with the correct settings. Downloaded installed a new powermail.app. What else can I try? Any ideas?

Re: Error -10004
Hi Jaede,
unfortunately, the script you are referring to seems to be no longer available
and not working on the latest version of iPhoto either. I actually use - as a
somewhat workaround - the option to email photos directly from iPhoto without
using Mail or Outlook. You'll find the option in iPhoto's preferences under the
General tab.
Best wishes,
Karsten
I have PowerMail and am running iPhoto '11 (9.4.2) on Mac OS 10.8.5. On
my old Powerbook, I could (with a special script you posted) export
photos from iPhoto directly into PowerMail. The newer iPhoto '11 only
shows Mail.app to share, and I haven't seen a script or work around so I
can directly share photos into PowerMail. Can anyone help me? Right now
I have to export a photo and then attach it into PowerMail...
Thanks,
Jaede

Network error
I still can't send from one of my POP accounts - get Network Interface Error Occurred: Class=NetP; what=2; when=1 I can send from this account in Apple Mail so must be a problem with PowerMail. I looked at the Troubleshooting section of the PowerMail manual and it suggests starting PowerMail with the option and command keys down. Every time I do this PowerMail crashes. Could I ask that the technical people at PowerMail update the Troubleshooting section with what the different values for the Network Interface Error are? i.e. what does what=2; when=1 mean? I'm using PowerMail 6.2 running on Mavericks. Geoff

When I try to send it again a few minutes later, it will usually go through without a problem. I recently started with command-option held down and checked each of the top options except Low Level Database Rebuild. The problem is still there. Any thoughts?

Well, I have PowerMail set to log in and retrieve mail from all of my accounts every 20 minutes. This error is popping up with maybe every third or fourth e-mail I send (most days I don't send more than about 10 or 12 messages), but I haven't paid attention to whether or not there's a pattern as to when the accounts was last checked. I'll try to make a note of it now. (The error happened with this message which was originally sent within seconds of the accounts being checked.)

Error: SYS/PERM Could not read message file
Hi all, Anyone ever seen this error message: [SYS/PERM] Could not read message file Ever since our mail server had a power failure, I get this message checking mail. If I use Mail.app I can still get mail. But with PM 6 (and 5) I get this error. It seems to be getting stuck on one message and refusing to continue. Any thoughts? Thanks, Sean

I don't know, what software is running on your server. In case it is cyrus for POP and IMAP (the message sounds like that) rebuild your mailboxes. You can use mailbfr for that, if you are not really confident with the command line for doing this. In case it's something different like dovecot, you first need to read the documentation how to do it. Be aware, that all messages in the mailboxes on the server will return to the state unread, so mails which are still stored on the server will be pulled again by PM. Thanks and all the best Matthias

I can receive mail just fine on the account, and other accounts, both in the domain and elsewhere, work fine both in and out. So I'm back to wondering what the heck is going on.

So it comes back to PowerMail. try with Thunderbird. What's the result? Thanks and all the best Matthias

For completeness' sake, I just ran Repair Permissions on the disk and volume - very little needed to be repaired, and it is now. And yet, the problem is still there.

I've seen some odd things involving passwords that were not in sync on the server, sometimes between protocols! This can be especially bothersome if your ISP uses different physical hosts for POP and SMTP as we do at work. Installing another POP client such as T-Bird or using Apple's Mail program in POP mode would be a good test. My 2 cents' worth.

The POP (or IMAP) password is not necessarily the same as the one used for SMTP when authentification is required by the server. Maybe you, or your ISP, changed the authentication method or password? If your ISP had to run a test, I assume there was something wrong or something they have changed, maybe this is related? Jerome, I've been on the phone with my ISP for over an hour today, very politely but firmly trying to dig deeper into this. It was clearly happening only with PowerMail (setting up the account in Mail.app worked fine), and only on accounts that were created or modified recently: I could change the password on an account and change it right back, and sending would stop working with PowerMail. Mail problems are all pretty simple, so they didn't want to dig too deep, but I finally had an encryption discussion with a senior tech, and he sent back this: ...we think we've figured out how to make Communigate play nice with Powermail. Our default encryption method appears to have stopped working with powermail. We do have some options, so as a test we changed from the default (U-crpt) to another (A-crpt) that seems to work on our tests. It does seem to have fixed the problem. My guess is that a version of CommuniGate at some point started using U-crpt as a default for new passwords, and only because I hadn't touched mine did they still work (because, goes my theory, they still used the old default). Once a password was touched, it re-encrypted with the new default, and PowerMail couldn't authenticate anymore. This is a very good knowledgebase article to have in the discussion archives, as it's very obscure, and difficult to diagnose, but rather concrete when you get down to it. And possibly a good new feature for PowerMail 5.5.4, to be able to handle U-crpt, whatever it is. Any further advice - like what encryption PowerMail likes best on the server side - would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Steve (who can finally send from his account again - yay!!)

A network interface error occurred - this is bad

When I try to send email via my primary email account, I get the following error message: A network interface error occurred Class=NetP; what=4; when=1 I have tried Quitting PM and deleting the following: Temp Outgoing Temp Incoming User Prefs - I have re-set the parameters for this mail account (other accounts are working just fine). - I've created a new Mail Account using all the account info for the account that won't send, in case the Mail Account was corrupt. - I've checked and re-checked the account's validity and password on my ISP's mail server. - (I've also emailed ctm twice with no response yet, but that's another story...) The account can receive mail just fine, but it cannot send. Other accounts, even some in the same domain, are sending and receiving just fine. I found one reference to this error in the PowerMail Discuss archives from back in January, but saw no response to it. Does anyone recognize this one, and what it means? And, more importantly, what to do about it? Thanks, Steve

Re: Powermail index/search error, any help?
Greetings all, Checking in to report that the suggestion below worked. The export process makes it fairly easy to identify a suspect message. Trashing the message leaves no doubt, as the message cannot be deleted. (The only way I found to eliminate the unremovable trashed message was to delete the whole mail file.) So I had to go back to the original mail file and start over a couple of times because there were several bad messages. I had to mess with folders some, and successfully rebuilt my mail file and index. The 'new' file worked fine for a day or so, then the problem returned! This did not seem to be from a newly received message, but one that had somehow been 'missed' by the export process. I repeated the process all over again, and my re-created mail file and index have worked fine now for over a week.

From: It seems like a problem with the index being corrupted, presumably by some particular badly formatted message? I have tried the usual techniques, trashing the index and rebuilding it, and also running the complete set of startup rebuild functions. In fact the STL error occurs after a complete rebuild of the index of (16,000?) messages when it tries to optimize the index. Try to export your entire mail database to the PowerMail Exchange format. As there is probably a corrupted message, this could fail. In this case, you can take a look at the exported file with a text editor (or import it to a new database - menu file / database / new user environment) to determine which message could be corrupted. Messages are exported folder by folder, and inside a given folder, by date saved. The corrupted message should be the message following the last exported message. In case you can't get rid of the corrupted message (it could cause an error when moving to the trash or using the delete message immediately script), you can export your messages one or multiple folders at a time (instead of exporting the entire message database), or multiple messages at a time for the folder that you can't export without an error. Then you can create a new user environment and import your messages there. You can then copy the old Setup Database file to copy your accounts, filters etc to the new user environment. Note that you will need to verify all your filter that move messages to a specific folder, as the folder reference will be changed in the new user environment. Also, if you leave the messages on the POP server, you will re-download the message still present on the server; to avoid this, you can purge retrieved messages, from the accounts dialog, on your old user environment, before switching to the new one.

Powermail index/search error, any help?
On Intel MacBook w/2 Gig RAM and OS X ver. 10.4.9, PowerMail version 5.5.2, Message db 112 Mb, Message db index 33 Mb, Message db Spotlight cache 100 Mb. I've had an annoying problem with PowerMail for about a year, and though I've written directly to Support several times, I can't seem to elicit any response. It seems like a problem with the index being corrupted, presumably by some particular badly formatted message? I have tried the usual techniques, trashing the index and rebuilding it, and also running the complete set of startup rebuild functions. In fact the STL error occurs after a complete rebuild of the index of (16,000?) messages when it tries to optimize the index. The error(s) don't prevent me from using Powermail, and after clicking through the error dialogs it seems that the Find function is working... When Powermail launches - An STL exception occurred Class=std; what=6; when = 100 When initiating a Find from within Powermail - A memory error occurred: Class=std; what=1; when =100 I imagine that starting over with a brand new mail file would be a solution - if you could call it that - but does anyone else have any ideas? Such as how to locate the offending message? If I have to start over, I am going to seriously question why I want to stick with PowerMail... Thanks in advance, - Chris Christopher Plummer Ask the right questions. - Kate Stockton
POP login error
Hello, I am getting an error when logging in to a particular account - AFAIK no settings have been altered. Using PowerMail 5.5.3, the error inserting into vlog table occurs. I have trashed preferences, erased and re-entered the account details, all to no avail. I have sent this query to PowerMail support, but, so far, they must be too busy to respond. With Apple's Mail.app, there is no problem.
Followup: STL error
I thought I replied back to the list after getting a query for further info, but apparently did not ... so to refresh, I had this problem: I have developed a recent problem when I quit Powermail. I get an error message that says STL exception occurred. I believe it was Jerome who replied: In the general preference pane, do you have some actions checked when quitting PM? If so, does doing these action manually also triggers the problem? Yes, and it appears, yes. I have the program set to empty the trash on quit. I tried to do that manually at your suggestion, and also got the STL error. And then was asked: Have you tried to compact your database? Or to low level rebuild it? Both, individually as well as doing the whole group of five repair options by launching when holding option+command. And it can only be done that way it seems; I tried to do the compact from within the program and got a memory error (not the STL error). I'm really quite frustrated, because this problem just began appearing out of nowhere. -- Thanks, Jeff Fishbein

Odd SMTP error
I have recently started getting this message from the smtp server that I use: 'Unexpected error on sasl.smtp.pobox.com Class='NetC',what=1,when=6,err=268435556' Ir arises after the email appears to have been sent (the blue bar is full). PM will generally wait for several minutes before reporting it. Normally the email goes through OK later. I have not had this trouble with my mac.com account although my wife does using PM 4.2.1 (OS 9.2.2). I have raised it with pobox.com which claims that my email logs are normal and suggests that I'm seeing a PM problem. At first glance it is not an ISP problem as I have set my smtp connection to Port 587 and still have problem. I'd appreciate any ideas please. -- Charles PM 5.5.3 - Intel iMac - OS 10.4.7

Memory error problem
I suddenly started having a weird problem with one of my PM databases. Yesterday evening I asked PM (5.2.3, OS 10.3.9)) to connect and download messages from my primary email address, as per usual. The first thing that happened was a window appeared during the download saying there was a problem on that pop server. It continued to download the messages but there was nothing in the body of the messages, i.e. they were blank. I then connected again, and the same messages were still up there and were again downloaded, again blank. I have an alternate email address on another server, and there was no problem with getting messages from that server. Thinking that there was a problem with this one server, I went on the web to read the messages and found that the same messages were indeed still up there, and were not blank. So from the web, I forwarded them to the alternate email address, then went back to Powermail and tried to download them from the alternate address's server. This time I got the same error message about a problem with _that_ server -- and this time some of the messages were blank and others were not. Thinking that this meant that there was one corrupted message that was causing all these problems, I deleted all the messages in PM and also deleted them from the server. Then quit out of Powermail and deleted the Powermail preference files. Then re-launched it. I prepared a test message from one email address to the other. But as soon as I hit command minus, I got a message saying that my database was corrupted. I quit out of Powermail and tried all the database fixes, including low level database rebuild. But now, there is a new problem that wasn't there before -- as soon as I launch PM I get a message saying A memory error occurred. When I click on more info I see class=std, what=1, when=100. But the problem with receiving and sending messages seems to have gone away. Does anyone have ANY idea what is going on? (Sorry for the lengthy description.)

This filter *does* pass the message on to later filters for further processing. But my spam filter is also set to put the attachments of spam messages into the trash. Maybe the two are fighting, although I would have thought that PM could handle that sort of thing; if I have two filters each set to move a message into a certain folder, the message simply gets moved there -- no error report.

Re: Error in receiving
This looks like a permission problem. But the problem seams to start on the parent level of the PM Files. The Error -43 means file not found. I'd try the following: repair permissions check permissions for the whole hierachie, in which the PM files also reside. if this doesn't work, I'd do a full repair of the database. All the best and good luck Matthias Thanks Matthias, I agree with you about permissions, its certainly file related. I've already repaired permissions and checked the PM file permissions. Now I think I've fixed it. I deleted the Setup database and restarted PM, which created a new (empty) Setup database. I re-entered the account information, (fortunately only five accounts) and it seems to be working OK now. If this sends then it's OK, the next test will be after a restart! Thanks for your input, it confirms the value of this list. Cheers Graham

Re: IMAP Error
IMO Powermail does not support IMAP well. I have purchased Powermail recently as well and cannot use it because my mail provider uses Cyrus IMAP server which is not handled properly by Powermail. I tried this with two other mail providers who are using Cyrus with same result. Ugh. That is not good news seeing as though I paid for this :( Which IMAP server does your email provider use ? It's my personal system and it's running UW IMAPD. No issues with any other clients thus far. You might consider webmail or switching to POP. Unfortunately, not really an option as I use numerous different systems and POP isn't very conducive to that. Any workarounds anyone has found?

In this case it's clear the message is coming from the remote server. The wolfson address is unknown to me. Maybe there's a virus causing problems on someone's server.

I think others have posted similar oddness before, whereby the server starts giving odd POP replies that PM chokes on. I have deleted all messages on this server and I'll see if I get any more of those error messages in the next few days. PM rarely causes me any problems, but when strange things suddenly happen, I figure it's best to ask. Tom Miller ... The only time we see the middle of the road is as we run from side to side.

See http://homepage.mac.com/tlmiller/PMerror.jpg PM starts up seemingly by itself? You have a script that checks your mail? What other mail-related software have you installed that could be active? PM is the only e-mail client open. It's one of the Login Items and stays open all day. http://homepage.mac.com/tlmiller/PMerror.jpg There is some kind of problem connecting to the server in question. Is it the right adress? You don't know of this POPserver at all? Check your email accounts. No changes have been made. I have seen this message 4 or 5 times in the last few days. I don't recall ever having seen it before in my years of using PM. Please supply more detailed information next time and we can give better help. Not really much to say -- nothing has been altered.
