Three new glitches have just developed with respect to emailing statements.
I select File > Print Statements > Email. "From" is my business email. The boxes to "save emails as drafts in email program" and "include text in emails" are both checked
Problem 1: Quickbooks delivers the drafts to my personal email, not my business email.
Problem 2: Quickbooks delivers two emails for each client, one with the statement attached and one with just the text.
Problem 3: After changing the email from personal to business and sending it, two copies of the sent email pop up in my drafts folder.
By turning off the other mailboxes in Internet Preferences, I was able to direct the statements to the correct Drafts folder... not optimal. And Quickbooks continued to deliver two emails per client. And why are two new draft copies replicated after sending?
These are new problems not in evidence last month. Any help?
Good evening, @MBSinLA.
After researching this issue, I can inform you that no one has reported this as an ongoing issue in QuickBooks Desktop for Mac. I recommend running a verify and rebuild to make sure your data isn't corrupted, or your file's not damaged. The steps below will show you how:
Now you'll want to send the emails again to make sure they're not duplicating. You may find this article helpful in the process: Verify and rebuild data in QuickBooks Desktop for Mac.
Just hit the reply button if you need any additional help. Enjoy the rest of your evening.
Thanks, Anna. I verified as you suggested and QB found no errors in the data.
I think some of the issues may have to do with Apple Mail. I changed my GoDaddy business email last month from a POP account to an IMAP account. I think that now when QB deposits the emails with the statements attached into my Drafts folder, Apple Mail gets confused and duplicates them as they go back and forth to the server. The duplication doesn't happen with every email -- maybe 90% of them -- so maybe it's a timing issue. I tried moving the Drafts folder to "On My Mac", but then QB couldn't find the folder and the generated emails never showed up anywhere.
As for the wrong email address showing up in the "From" field, I think that is a legit QB problem, and I have not been able to fix it.
Again, thanks for the response.
Thanks for getting back to us, @MBSinLA.
Let's set up another email address and make it a default mail to isolate this unexpected behavior.
Here's how;
Once done, you’ll find the email address listed in the From field then try to send an email again.

Thanks, Joesem,
So, I've plugged in to Other email and tested the sending of the statement and text. It arrived fine and displaying the correct email address with no duplications.
One of the nice things about using the Apple Mail was that I could review the review the email and statement in Drafts before I send it. Is there a facility to do that with QB's? Is there a place to see all emails, or is it client by client from the Client Center?
Thanks for coming back to the Community, @MBSinLA.

My Problem is Similar, in that Over the past 2 OSX Updates, I am current on Big Sur Now, But this Problem has Existed since Maybe Yosemitie. In any Event, Every month I create Statement emails. At setup they Show the Correct Email from, my text is fine, all delivered to the correct draft folder. However 2 Things Happen Thing 1 Has Always Happened since I started Qb in 2008. By The Time the Email is generated, it is defaulted to my Other email. this is not as frustrating and time consuming as my thing 2 and Main reason I am Replying. Some of my Statements, do not contain an attachment. Recently say last 3 months, I have also been getting some duplicate, one with an attachment, the other without. Some Emails of Known existing statements do not even show. Very Frustrating as the Missing emails, like I said have been occurring since yo. thanx for any direction
Thanks for explaining your concern in such a great detail, fratinize.
Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to resolve your concern. To start, I'd suggest updating QuickBooks to the latest release. By doing so, it keeps the software up-to-date to ensure you have the latest features and fixes.
Then, let's review your settings and filter preferences. These may be blocking your emails from QuickBooks on accident.
To further isolate this issue, we can also send emails using a sample company file to check if it's doing the same thing.
If none of these fixes the problem, I'd recommend reaching out to our QuickBooks Support Team. They can take a closer look at your situation and investigate this further. It'll also allow them to submit a ticket to our engineering team to alert them about the issue if necessary.
