Does lion server support a single email address across multiple devices??

I am looking to move from an outdated Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 to OS X Lion Server but I am unsure as to how Lion will handle email. I do not want to spend money on a new windows server if I can get a Mac Mini Server to do the job. I am a very small business with a number of email accounts for a couple employees and need access to email and calendar from both the office iMac's and my Macbook Pro when on the road. My IT guy says I need Exchange but he's been off base on a few other items recently and I wanted to check with other sources.
I have 2 new iMac's, a MacBook Pro, an iPad1 and and iPhone4 on the mac side of things and 2 windows computers running XP. I would get rid of the windows computers completely if not for my CAD program which runs best not in a virtual machine mode.
How well will email and calendar entries sync across devices?

I have a very similar setup at my office. Lion Server will push email, calandar, contacts to all of your apple product with out a hitch.
As far the Windows XP machines, you can access email over IMAP with Thunderbird, and calandars via sunbird or the built in web app.
I would ditch the exchange server move to Mac OS X Server, and never look back.
God Luck!
PS. All of your devices will be in sync all the time.

  • Single email signature for multiple devices

    Hi,
    I want to use one email signature from my mac mail account - I want it to be the same from iPhone, iPad and desktop mac - ideally including my logo, phone number and website as a clickable link.
    Is this possible because I'm really struggling.
    Thanks in advance!

    You need an IMAP or Exchange account...not a configuration problem...type of mail account problem. Keeping things in Sync across multiple devices can't be done with a POP account.

  • Multiple ICLOUD Email addresses for multiple devices.......HELP

    In our family we have an IPOD, IPHONE, IPAD, and another IPOD Touch. How do I setup additional emails under my main ICLOUD email address? I have created several but it won't allow me to link it to the mail ICLOUD account. I want each device to have their own icloud email but still be able to access all of my content.

    Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account.  You can create up to 3 alias addresses within the account, but they will all receive email in the same inbox.
    If you want each person to have their own email account (inbox), and still be able to access the other iCloud data in your main account, you would need to create "secondary" iCloud accounts on each person's device.  You can do this by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with a different Apple ID.  Secondary accounts can be used for Mail, Notes, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders.  If you only want to add a new mail account, you can just turn Mail to On in the secondary account.  The only drawback to this approach is that secondary iCloud email accounts only support fetch email, not push.  Push mail is only supported in the primary account.

  • Splitting the "To" field when crawling an email and then using the "To" field as a refiner with single email addresses

    Hi
    I am using SP2013 SP1 with the September 2014 CU.
    When I crawl an email I use the "To" field subsequently as a refiner.
    Unfortunately, if the email has many email addresses in the "To" field, they all appear in the refiner which is not much help if you only want to refine by a single email address.
    IS there a way of splitting the list of email addresses in the "To" field into separate email addresses so that the field can be used as a refiner, with each refiner entry having a single email address ?
    I have seen articles for SP2010 FAST search, but not for SP2013 Search or do I need to get involved in Content Enrichment / Content Extraction for there appears to be little documentation available on these.
    I would have thought this would have been a fairly popular feature.

    Hi，
    According to your description, my understanding is that the "to"search refiner has many email address when searching the "To" managed property in SharePoint 2013. but you only want to refine by a single email address.
    Whether you create custom "To" managed property,  and then you can search email address with the "To" managed property.
    The refiner value is correspond to the crawel property(column value), when you search different email adress, you would get different refiner values.
    If the issue exists, Please offer a screenshot about your issue and tell "To" managed property is mapping to which crawl property.

  • Multiple access to single email address

    Hi
    I am looking for the solution in which I can access the single email address to have more than 15+ connections. Like for example there is email [email protected] and want that email to be accessed simultaneously on 10 computers and 5+ mobile smartphones.
    Please suggest which one would be best solution for that.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    To understand more about the issue, I'd like to confirm if you want to configure one mailbox account on more than 15 clients or more than 15 mailbox users access the one mailbox.
    Could you please explain more detail about your requirement if there is no inconvenience?
    If it's a single user mailbox, it may bring the 9646 error. In this case, you can enlarge the properties of your throttling policy:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2742012
    Alternatively, we can choose shared mailbox instead of user mailbox.
    If there are more than 15 mailboxes, you can assign send as or send on behalf permission.
    If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,

    Thanks for that. He is one of the last holdouts in IT so an email address for him would just mean I have 2 to check so that is what I am trying to avoid as we move into retirement:)

  • Does having a number in your email address reduce/...

    My email address is [email protected]
    BT also gave me another one: (me)@btopenworld.com in the days when their retail and wholsesale arms were competing. I can receive emails on both but outgoing emails show the openworld address - not a problem.
    I frequently receive spam/phishing emails shopwing they were sent to dozens of people with names close to mine - presumably the sources of these emails have a system that simply goes through the alphabet.
    I have decided to change my email address. If I used "aaa.nnnn@" i.e. a combination of alpha & numeric, might this reduce or even stop me receiving spam/phishing?
    Or to put it a simpler way - does any forum member with an email address with both alpha & numeric in it get spam/phishing emails?

    Theoretically, the addresses least likely to get spam are those which:
    Are very hard to guess and
    Are given out to as few people as possible
    (numbered lists still broken)

  • Server doesn't recognize email address

    I can recieve email, but I can't send email.  It keeps saying "server doesn't recognize email address."

    Ok,
    I have it working finally.
    On a whim, I tried deleting the iCloud account (again) and reinstated it.
    I set it up using [username]@me.com, and all is well.
    This is the 2nd time i set it up this way, so I would suggest trying it again, if you have already.

  • Does Lion server default with mail gray graylist?

    Does Lion Server by default enable mail graylistsing?
    This was a problem for me with Snow Leopard Server, Will I have to disable it again, or is it no longer and option with Lion Server?
    If I do need to disable graylisting, would I take the same steps as with Snow Leopard Server?
    Thanks in advanced!

    Yes, Lion Server's default is graylisting as enabled.  The steps to remove it are indeed the same as with Snow Leopard.
    However, right now, with Server.app having bug issues, it seems to change it back from time to time.  If the 10.7.2 update fixes Server.app, then hopefully you'll be able to remove graylisting and it'll stay that way.

  • Why does iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?

    Why does my iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?  It also does it whenever I type it in Safari (but not Chrome) and it only does it with one of my email addresses and not any of my other ones (i.e., yahoo, hotmail, etc.). 
    Thanks so much for your help!

    I don't see visible underscores in that login form, but they appear to be entered (that form isn't high enough to show them for me).
    You can verify that in the Scratchpad and use Execute > Display after pasting the below posted code.
    * Firefox/Tools > Web Developer > Scratchpad (Shift+F4)
