This started some time ago, but when opening my Mail application, it usually downloads 4 or 5 emails at a time, and I have to click on Get Mail persistently to get all my emails downloaded. How can I get all of my emails to download at the same time?
What kind of account and who is it with? It sounds like something has changed with regards to your mail server, since I don't know of any preference that would limit the number of mails it downloads at one time. You should also check your net connection and see if you're not having periodic losses. Failing that, make a new user account and try to get your mail through Mail in that account. If the same problem occurs it's likely a server-side problem. If the problem continues, try trashing your Mail preferences in your main account.
It's a gmail account. The only thing that might have changed, but I'm not sure, is enabling a POP account. It shouldn't be a net connection, as I'm at a university. Thanks for the advice. If nothing else works, I'll try the new account approach.
