Running Mail 9.3 with OS El Capitan. When I click 'Get Mail' , checking for mail starts and finishes the search of my Main Account. A second search often starts of my POP Account, taking more time. Do I need two accounts? The Host Name for both is the same. ie. POP3.toucan......com. Should I disable one of these accounts?
Roy, do the accounts both service the same E-mail address (ie your address that other people use to send you mail)? If it is the same address then you need only collect mail once.
The fact that both accounts are using a POP host suggests that they might be different but is not conclusive.
Whoops! Just looked at Mail again after my Mailbox Manager listed five new messages. Clicking 'Get Mail' produced no messages. I had left the 'Main Account' enabled. So I re-enabled the POP account and five new messages dropped in. I will try deleting the 'Main Account'.
