Mac OS X :: Mail inbox counter problems

Using Mail 3.6, OSX 10.5.7,'The inbox message counter states 0 messages (there are 33).
Used Mailbox: Rebuild. When done, the counter does indicate all 33 messages. Then when I click on a different box, such as Sent or Trash, then go back to inbox, it now shows 5 messages.
Go away again then return again, and it then shows zero messages. Stays at that number unless a new one comes in then it shows 1 message until read. Then back to zero.
Have rebuilt the inbox 3 times with identical results as stated above.
Anyone know what is going on here?
Tried the Apple Support Forums but they are not available at this time.

I'm giving up on this particular monitor, and am wondering what the Cap Mac members would recommend for a new 30" monitor.

I use it mainly for Aperture, but it's also what I watch movies on. I've got no interest in gaming on it.

Any suggestions?

there are 43 pages of discussion im sure you have read here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=221104&start=435&tstart=0

I did not spend time reading each page but from what i read so far its more of a connection and dust issue... also is the display getting dim? what kind of machine is it attached to? is the place where the cpu sits clean of dust dirt and hair?

I have been backing up several macs through a network to Time Machine. Had a problem with the Hosting Computer, took it to the Mac Store, they reinstalled the System, now all the remote computers can not see the host Hard Drive.

I works fine on the Host Machine but the other mac's are not being backed up. Any Ideas?

Have you heard or had any problems with an ISP rejecting passwords used in Mail? We have not been able to download mail since last week because Mail says the POP provider doesn't accept the password. The ISP, of course, says it a Mac problem but I don't think so. They changed servers just before this started.

Have you heard anything about a hosting company called Dreamhost. Do you have any recommendations for an ISP who is familiar with the Mac world?

I've worked with several Samsung printers and in the past I've had to google the printer model to find the Mac driver and get it off another (non-samsung) site. you might try that. I've had good luck doing that. I've had good luck with Samsung printers but their support for Mac is...well....

Same day as last query . . . been working fine, next day wouldn't print. I can send to print but will not complete. (Maybe it was that huge thunderstorm . . . but we didn't get a surge or knockout.) I have a Samsung ML-1430 (using MacOS 10.4.11). I followed the instructions from the previous post and went to the Print&Fax sys pref, clicked reset the printing system, then tried to re-add the driver but now it doesn't see it although it is still in the Printers folder in the sys Library folder. I also tried adding it using the Printer Setup Utility and via the List of Printers window . . . can't find/see that driver . . . rats! I went to Samsung site to get a new one but now see only Windoze/Linus drivers. I'll call them Monday.

Hi all! I have an "ancient" HP LaserJet 6MP laser printer. I've had it since about 1998. I love it. I have it hooked up to my new iMac via a USB cable. I've been using it without problems since last August. Suddenly, yesterday, it won't print. I see the files in the print queue. But... if I restart my computer, the files will print. So I know it's hooked up. I reinstalled the printer drivers. I made sure all the connections were secure. What else can I do? I can't imagine what would have changed. Thanks!

Julie

in Leopard, control (right) click on the printer icon in your printer/fax system preferences, choose reset printing system..., then, re add your printer.
