My problem has some similarity to diazden's "I cant see my Emails" thread, but with a twist.
On Monday of this week, I opened one of my Mail readers (I have a version installed in each of four user accounts, each checking different e-mail accounts) and found the little pyramid with an "i" inside next to every account.
I clicked to open all accounts, but nothing happened.
I tried downloading new e-mail anyway, but nothing happened.
I went to another user account and found the same problem -- as I did with all my user accounts.
I shut down all user accounts and rebooted. Nada.
I shut down again, but waited an hour to reboot. Nada.
I tried to re-open individual e-mail accounts rather than all of them. Nada.
All of the accounts can be accessed using Mail2Web (a horrible way to monitor multiple e-mail accounts), which shows I do have a solid Internet connection and there is nothing wrong with my mail servers.
Don't know if it matters, but last week my Google and Cloud accounts (only on a couple of the Mail installs) became permanently offline, just as all did this week.
I could simply re-install Mail, but the last time I did that, it closed access to all my e-mail accounts and I had to rebuild them.
I'm running the latest version of Mail for my OS (10.9.4) and have installed all OS updates. This is on a 4-year-old, 27" iMac with 2.66 GHz i5 processor, 16GB of DDR3 1067MHz RAM and a 4TB internal drive.
Anybody have this problem before or otherwise have suggestions on how to fix it?
Thanks,
J.R.
