Macbook Mail takes very long to receive mail So lately, my Macbook Pro 15" late 2014 has some bugs in the Mail app. It takes hours to receive a mail from anyone. Whereas my phone receives the mail in seconds after it being sent, the Mac takes hours to do so. The recent mail does not show up at all! The only e-mails I can see are from 5 or 6 hours ago. I don't believe the network is an issue since the phone and my laptop are on the same Wi-fi. 

Any help is appreciated!
Thanks.
In Apple Mail you can check what's going on by clicking on Windows -> Activity or pressing Command+Alt+0.

Press Command+, and click on the tab General. Check what intervat you set there. You might want to set it to Every minute.
