All of a sudden Apple's mail.app is not getting e-mail. I was last able to receive e-mail on Dec. 3. My POP settings were never changed and I checked with Comcast to see if there was a POP server problem on their end but there is not. I can get all my mail on the Comcast web site so I know e-mail is going through. I can also send mail out via the Mail.app, but not in.
When I click on Get Mail the spinning graphic spins a bit and I get no errors. Any ideas on what might be happening?
I'm running Mac OS X 10.3.6 on a PowerBook.

First, I would quit and restart Mail.app and try again. Then, make sure that your account is 'online' using Mailbox...Online status. Sometimes, it flips to 'offline' and Mail.app seems to behave quite normally (i.e. it apparently checks your mail).
Yup, it was OFFline and I have no idea how it got that way since I never went there and told it to do that. At least I now know what to first look at. Thanks again!
