I am receiving mail and sending it on my MobileMe (me.com) and my iPhone but I can't get any connection with my Mail (stamp icon) on my MacBook Pro on my XXXX@me.com account.

There is a triangle with an exclamation point in it next to my Inbox on my Mail app and also next to MobileMe (on the left hand side). Also, under On My Mac, there is a recover file folder with a #3 next to it and I cannot delete or see these mails.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Might not be a solution but i did read a post with similar problems a while ago and they had to click the Get Mail button twice to get a connection.
Cant remember if it was for .me account or not but that was there solution..

Probably dont need to ask but is Mail set up correctly on your MBP ??
Is this the only time it hasnt worked ?? Was it working before then just stopped getting a connection ??
As i said might not be your solution, just chucking ideas out there

All updates up to date??
Cheers

yeah, it has been working but then just stopped. no large files or anything jamming it up. yes, mail setup correctly as MobileMe does most of it for you. I am going to call Apple tomorrow. Called tonight and the guy had no idea. It was after 9pm EST so I guess it was just the Xmas help working the phones. LOL

Thanks anyway.

Did you just upgrade to Snow Leopard? When I did, I had go in and change settings in my mobileme Mail account. If you say "yes," I'll dig out the setting changes I made and post them for you.

Cheers Dont forget to use the Reputation System if someone has helped you out !!! “I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom ….”― Edgar Allan Poe
