Backspace delete of text in email deletes the email- why. With Lion

I use Mail 5.0 and Mac OS X Version 10.7.1 (Lion). If I open an email and highlight text and go backspace it deleted the email rather than the highlighted text which I think used to be the case. Is there another way to delete part of the text in an email before forwarding? Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I too have the requirement to modify the content of the email body. Actually i have created one human task which sends the email notification to the Approver. when I check the email, the body of the email does not contain anything. Both the Information header that we give in the Task form and the task details are coming as an attachment to the email.
Could you please let me know, how we can get the Information header as the content of the email and also to customize the Subject of the email as per the requirement.
Thanks in advance,
Siva.

I like to be able to edit and delete individual text messages but since the update only have the functionality to delete a whole conversation

I would like to be able to delete individual text messages not a whole conversation. With the iOS 7 update this is no longer possible.

Yes, that's the way it works now.

Deleting an ISP but saving all the email notes

I have changed my ISP but need to keep all emails I received through that ISP. I remember deleting an ISP before and all the emails disappeared as well. I've taken all the emails out of my INBOX and stored them in different folders in the "ON MY MAC" section within my Mac MAIL program. Before I deleted this former ISP account I wanted to make sure the emails themselves were safe and wouldn't disappear as well.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Michael

When I start to delete the account from Mail in the Accounts section of the Mail Preferences this is the message I get...
"Are you sure you want to remove the “Cox account” POP account and all of its messages?
The account’s setup information, mailboxes, and all messages will be deleted permanently from your computer. Copies of messages on the mail server, if they exist, will not be affected."
That sounds to me like everything on the computer dealing with that ISP, no matter where it resides. Is that true? I mean, would it seek out emails that were received through that ISP, even though they were in folders apart from the InBox?
Thanks,
Michael

I made my apple Id a long time ago. I do not remember the answers to my security questions but when I send the questions to my email, they get sent to an old email that was deleted. How do I change the email they get sent to?

1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
2. Here are two different but direct methods:
    a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
    b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
        and service.
3. For other queries about Apple ID see Frequently asked questions about Apple ID.

Hello minhluhoc,
It sounds like you are unable to reset your security questions but do not have access to your rescue email address. According to the following article you will need to contact the iTunes Store support team:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

Help Activation Email (Resend The Email)

Hi All,
I hope someone can help, I am having problems with people not been able to activate their account as email may have gone to spammail and deleted.
I am having to delete people from the database directly to accommodate their request to become a member.
Is there a way to create a "re-send activation email" just like the forgot password?
Can anyone detail how to do this or if there is a script anywhere please let me know where I can get it....
Please, Please can someone help!!!!!!!!!
Cheers,
Joe

Hi Laurence,
Thats great after a little more playing around and configering everything I got it to work.
A little different from yours but based on mainly the same details and I tested it and it works!!!
I think we should give our selves a pat on the back.
So here its how it's done everyone. Follow these steps
1. Set up a dynamic list/ recordset from the user registration ( or what ever you called it)table
2. Create a filter of the (EmailAddress in table to = "Form Variable" EmailAddress entered in the form on the webpage to update.
Set up an update form with basic details displayed as text (I.e. only the email address)
Change the button name to send activation email or whatever takes your fancy and add a send email from recordset trigger.
in the message box add something like this:
Your username is {username_member}
To activate your account, click on the following link: 
<a href="http://yoursite.com.au/activate.php?{rsReActivateEmail.EmailAddres}=kt_login_id={rs ReActivateEmail.id_user}&kt_login_random={rsReActivateEmail.random}"
target="_blank">http://yoursite.com.au/activate.php?{rsReActivateEmail.EmailAddres}=kt_log in_id={rsReActivateEmail.id_user}&kt_login_random={rsReActivateEmail.random}</a>
Breakdown for non coder ("Like Me, but learing fast")
rsReActivateEmail.EmailAddres ='s the email address in table
that then ='s kt_login_id which ='s the users uniqu ID (i.e id_user = 155)
rsReActivateEmail.id_user = id_user from recordset where EmailAddress ='s ID_USER
and
kt_login_random ={rsReActivateEmail.random (from recordset)
BingBashBosh your done..................
When you click on the send activation email it will send an email to the user with a link to activate their account.
I feel like a million pounds and that I may have helped many people who have had this irriating problem.
I have to give much credit to Laurence as I would not have come across how to put it all together without his advise.
A big thankyou to Laurence cheers pal if I thought you were in the UK I would buy you a pint in the pub.
Cheers,
Joe

I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

I have a similar problem. I was receiving email on my iPhone for months, and then it quit working. When it quit working, I continued to receive emails on my iPad even though the server and port settings were exactly the same between the two devices. I tried deleting and re-adding my email account on the iPhone and restarting my iPhone, but I still couldn't receive email on the device. The only way I could get email to work on my iPhone was to switch to using a POP3 email server (this is the server that my phone auto detected when I re-added my email account) -- the server that was working previously and that is still working on my iPad is an IMAP email server. Since the IMAP server settings continue to work on my iPad, it seems that the problem is with my iPhone and not my email server.

How can I avoid a pop-up when I'm going from an email to the email list?

I use Mozilla firefox to go online. When I've opened an email I've received and then want to return from that email to the email list, I click "backspace." Half the time, it gets me back to the email list. The other half the time, a window pops up, saying:
"To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier" and I have to choose to cancel or resend. I always click resend. I don't want this window to pop-up. When I read an email and then hit the backspace key, I just want to get back to the email list.
Can you help? Thanks, Alvin Glazerman

Don't use backspace to go back to that page. Either open the link in a new tab with a middle-click and close that tab to go back or click a link to go back to the inbox if there is such a link on that page.

How can I use iCloud to receive emails from my GMail account and when I reply, the reply email shows the email in which it was sent to, not the @iCloud address?

I have my GMail account forwarding my emails to my @iCloud.com account which I like, but when I reply, it shows my address as @iCloud.com instead of the email address that was originally addressed to. Anyway to have iCloud reply to emails using the email address in the original email?

You can't use iCloud's outgoing server to send with anything other than the iCloud address as the 'From' address. On your Mac you can set Mail to use the GMail outgoing server with your iCloud account (but then you can just access your GMail there anyway, so there's little point). On the iCloud website you can't do this; there is no way of using your Gmail address.

I keep receiving Reset email password emails. The most recent one was actually addressed to someone else... i.e. the name in the email not the email address. why is this happening??

That's probably because it's been sent out to a Bcc'd mailing list and that's the name on the main version. This is so that you don't see the other names.
If it doesn't come from something @apple.com then it's spam. Even if it appears to it's probably spam. If you want to change your password go directly to http://appleid.apple.com - do not follow any links in the email (even if they appear to lead to that address.)

I was ask for my secure question and they did not work. So I went into my account and tap on my secure question that I forgot my secure question. It replied back that it just sent me a email. The email never came. I did this three time. You have myy email as correct. I have check my account and it show as being correct.

It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
