Mail won't download
Have had this problem a couple of times in the past with my BellSouth account and eventually got it worked out but I'm stumped this time.
Incoming mail goes to my iPhone just fine.
I can send mail but cannot receive it.
Library/preferences/com.apple.plist file does not exist
Highlight my BellSouth account in mail and right click / get account info - it shows all the new messages on the server
No lightning bolt beside any of the accounts - all are online . Have taken all mail accounts offline and then back online - ng
Have done a hard restart and even a SMC reset - nada
Running OSX 10.8.3
Everything was fine until 5 days ago. Haven't change any settings or added new software but have been having errant shutdowns due to a kernel panic issue...
Have checked all relevant forums, tips trick and magic wands - ng
Running out of hair to pull out ðŸ˜
