Q: Exchange servers and Mavericks Mail

It loads it when you open the Mail app, but then no new messages will appear in the Exchange inbox while app is open - fetch new mail and the Activity Window show "Synchronizing Inbox" and jsut sits there and waits.. Close the app and reopen - New Mail appears.  Another  bug?

    Hi, all. This worked for me: Open Mail. Click on the account under "Inbox" that is misbehaving--Google, Yahoo, Exchange, etc. Then click on "Mailbox" on the Mail ribbon. Then click on "Rebuild" on the dropdown. Hope this helps.

    Hi All,

     

    I've been having problems with my mail.app and exchange.  I wasn't able to move messages out of my inbox.

     

    I spoke with apple and they had me reset my system controller and it seems to have worked.

    Same here ... Worked for about a week after I removed all accounts (in every way and from every possible folder), but the problem started again this morning.

    Having tried all of the other suggested fixes earlier in this thread, dylanthropic's solution worked for me! Doing a "Rebuild" on my exchange account Mailbox did the trick, and now Mail is downloading two years worth of messages, and it seems to be checking along with my other accounts. Thanks dylanthropic! ;-)

    For some reason I do not have the Rebuild option (grayed out) available on my Exchange mailbox. It's on my Google account but not Exchange.

    Definitely another bug. Greyed out until I rebooted and tried 3 different times. Here's to hoping it helps!

    I am not only having problems with Exchange folders in Mail not syncing reliably, but worse, none of my Exchange events are updating in Calendar since I installed Mavericks. I then unchecked and rechecked Calendars in the Internet Accounts and now no events exist, so it clearly can't refresh at all. I'm now having to use Outlook on my Windows 7 virtual machine in Parallels 9, and fortunately that's working. It seems that iOS 7.03 is handling the Exchange accounts fine, though.

     

    Any ideas, anyone? I am not enjoying living in Windows 7.

     

    Thanks,

    David

    Did the rebuild…. I have only mails until 23-10-2013…. After 23-10-2013 nothing. Guess what I installed on the 23th at the end of the day…

    Maybe the new release they are working on for Mail will help us...

    Found the same situation. One account basically does the mail and the other the calendar. So I have tried to enable email in the exchange account doing the calendar. This resulted in an error. Perhaps the only way is to delete the one of the accounts...

    I had the same situation with Exchange and deleted one of the accounts. Mail seems to be syncing okay now but Calendar is still not great. Events that I create and edit in Calendar sync fine onto my iOS devices and in Outlook (on the web and in Windows 7), but events created and edited in Outlook or the iOS devices are not reliably synced in Calendar. It seems that Calendar is not reliably receiving data from the exchange server, but does send data fine. This was true of Mail but it seems to be better. The iOS devices work fine. Anyone have a solution for this?

    I'm experiencing yet another type of problem...

     

    I have Mavericks Mail with two accounts, one talking to Exchange Server 2010 and another with POP mail for my personal ISP account. Mail delivery from Exchange is slow (as others have reported), and when sending a mail item to Exchange, the Mail app often asks me to "Retry with the selected mail server". It then lets me choose between the Exchange and POP/ISP mail servers. If I select the Exchange server and click retry, the mail item gets sent very quickly.

     

    The retry request doesn't appear to be associated with the size of the mail being sent, nor to how long I've been connected to Exchange, etc. It seems to be random. It's a nuisance, but at least it send each item when I retry as requested.

    We are all wasting our time until Apple comes out with a Fix.  I have spoken to Level 2 Email tech's twice now and have rebuilt everything related to mail and the problem would resurface again in a few days.   My Exchange is 2012 and it worked flawless with Mountain Lion.  It stil works fine with IOS 7 luckily.  

     

    At one point It would only receive emails when I closed Mail or took it offline then back online.  That doesn't work anymore.

     

    I am no Mac expert but I do own a  IT Company that focuses on Microsoft managed services and am very versed in Exchange and this is not an exchange isssue from what I am seeing.  At first I thought it was an Autodiscovery issue so I manually created the Internal and External Server paths but that didnt' help either.  I have decided to remove my exchange account until Apple releases a fix otherwise I will be more frustrated.
