A lot of users reported nonfunctioning mail accounts after upgrading to Yosemite, as a search on 'mail Yosemite' in Apple's support forums shows, but the 10.10.1 update addresses this. On both my iMac and my Mini, I have been having all manner of Mail problems beginning in 10.10.4 and getting worse in 10.10.5. So I am constantly rebuilding mailboxes, unchecking the Advance Preference setting(as per various forums' advice) and then re-checking it, having to force quit mail three times out of four. This article walks you through the steps for setting up Apple Mail 8.0 on Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite). Once you complete the setup, you’ll have an incoming IMAP connection using SSL (without warnings) and an SMTP connection using SSL (without warnings).
