Hey everyone!
I would like to check message MANUALLY in Mac Mail.
Under preferences, I have check message "Manually".
Today, I unchecked "Include when automatically checking for new messages" and "Use IDLE command if the server supports it" in all my accounts.
However, I am still receive messages automatically!
I have 3 accounts are all Google IMAP accounts.
Please help!

Even with the "take all accounts offline" button enabled they still come through!!!
Anyone?...
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
Thanks Eric! I will try this right away!
Eric-
I tried restarting the computer but it didn't work.
I didn't try uninstalling 3rd party programs. (I don't have that many...)
If I change my google account to POP they don't automatically come through... Is that any help?
I figured it out! All I did was change Authentication to Kerberos Version 5 and voila! No more automatic emails! Thanks everyone!!! 🙂
