Trouble with Mail

Since installing El Capitan I have had sending and receiving mail issues. I can send on three of my accounts but I can't receive on any even if I send to myself from either of the three. The incoming server is listed and listed correctly but is grayed out in preferences. In Account preferences, it is again listed correctly but not grayed out. Anyone else with this issue?

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

Thank you. I checked the article and it did not address my issue I don't think. My issue on both my iMac and iPhone since upgrading to EC is I can't receive mail or either device. I get mail with no problem. I had previously done some of what the article suggested. And what makes it more confusing, when I do the mail preference checks I get that I am not POP and IMAP on all the accounts. Yet, some are listed as inactive others are not. When I try to adjust the settings to what the report says they should be, I can't. At least with iPhone I am thinking of deleting and establishing the accounts. With iMac, I just may use another mail client.

Thanks for the assist.
