Apple Mail 16.0 delay in receiving mails

MacBook Pro M1 max. Approx. since some weeks or maybe the last Monterey update it seems that Mail is only once per day receiving mails from the clients. This applies for different mail accounts.

Also manual receive button does not seem to work.


But I can see the mails up to 24h earlier in my iPhone Mail.


This is very annoying. Any help? Thanks

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6

1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.


2 - Does the issue present in this mode ?


3 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.


4 - If not - there could be something in the main User Account playing up. To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac. Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.


5 - If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.


6 - If after performing each of the above steps is the order that have been presents  and still have issues - please advise for possible further assistance.
