joskus Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Whenever I try to create a mailbox in Mail.app I get an error saying "Mailbox Creation Failed" - unable to create path ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/nameofmailbox.mbox Any ideas? Working with Mail.app Version 2.1, OSX 10.4.8 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/30588-osx-mail-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
alc0h0lic Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 1. Check if you have a 'legal' mailbox name, no illegal characters 2. Repair permissions with Disk Utility let's see what happens Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/30588-osx-mail-problem/#findComment-216827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
joskus Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Somehow there was no "mailboxes" folder in ~/Library/Mail - just a document. Easy fix, as I just made the folder and presto, I can make my folders in mail.app. Thanks, though!! Now to just fix my booting problem...
