Lots of Mail issues

I still haven't gotten Mail working. It keeps starting up with nothing. It's doing this because it's renaming the V2 folder in Library/Mail/ to "V3" then creating a new V2 folder.

No idea why. This is from an upgrade from 10.10.3 release.

EDIT: Upon further investigation my V2 folder was locked for some reason.

Yep, Same here.

The only smart mailbox that remained was 'Today,' but the condition was changed to "Read Today" — that's even weirder, but easy enough to fix.

So, I had to delete all the dimmed shortcuts for the smart mailboxes, and re-create them.

Welcome to beta testing. Nothing works as a rule. Those things that do, are a happy

coincidence. If you rely on your emal, NEVER, EVER, install beta software or OSes.

Mail is behaving itself here, including Smart Mailboxes.

Same here. Mail is completely unusable in current build.

Searching for emails within mailboxes is also non-functional. Entering anything in the search window yields nothing.

Just wanted to say I started experiencing this issue after Beta 6. Smart mailboxes (e.g. VIP) no longer seem to function and same issue with the mail rule mailbox pointing to the last one edited. Meh - it's beta software just odd that the same old bugs seem to keep cropping up.

I'm off the developer beta and now running public beta 4. I went back to Yosemite and moved my way through the public betas. Since then I can no longer see my local mail folders. When I went through finder (using the hiden library folder I noticed the same thing as you. I now have a v2 directory and a v3 directory with I believe to be my local folders. Questions: 1. Can I just get rid of the v2 folder and rename the v3 back to v2? 2. Can I just re-import the v3 folders? If so how do I let mail know where they are? That whole library directory structure is hiden to most applications. Thanks!

I actually performed number 2 I listed above and it worked. The local mail files are now visible under On My Mac. I now however have 2 copies of the local email files, one under V2 and the other under V3. Mail is now updating the ones under V2. Strange stuff.
