Appears to have been taken down.


Though it works, it's still buggy. Doesn't always fetch email without restarting the mail app.

Maybe they took it down to sort that issue as well. Maybe even make it 64 bit.

I still have the installer if anyone wants it for 1.0.3

Ha, same email from the same person!
 
Fetching email

I had issues with fetching email before the Lion upgrade, and they continue now as well..
I close/open Mail regularly.
At least it's predictable... Any other solution I had tried for this "reading hotmail in mac mail" mess got me into even worse states...

I'm not happy, don't get me wrong.

Is that normal to have issues fetching email?? I had that issue before upgrading to Lion as well, but I thought it was just my connection to the mBox mail app or something... it's a PITA to have to constantly restart Mail in order to get new emails to sync! I guess I'm not the only one having the problem.. :eek:
 
Yeah I had the same problem in snow leopard too, no amount of emails to their support would get them to address it either
 
Anyone else get an email asking to try out 1.0.6?

It works no better, in fact I think it's worse haha
 
Update from mbox mail to fix problems with mail not working with Lion

I contacted mbox mail (Fluent Factory) as I too could not get my mbox mail to work correctly with the new Lion upgrade on my MAC.

They sent me the following link and it now works:-

"Can you please try loading mBox Mail for Mac v1.0.6 now available on our website:

I know this is an OLD thread, but 1.0.6 doesn't work with ML 10.8.6... Same issue as y'all WERE having with Lion, where you constantly have to shutdown Mail.app to get new mail.

Nah, you don't have to shut Mail.app down. They arrive after a while, just delayed
