Exchange account crashes Mail app

My 1st Gen iPhone has worked well with my Exchange account (and 3 other accounts) for more than a year, but since upgrading to 3.0 (and 3.0.1) the phone's Mail app crashes whenever it checks for mail. If I turn off the Exchange account, no crashes. Is there a fix for this behavior?

Figured it out. I deleted the existing account and created a new one, using the same information, and Mail no longer crashes. Furthermore, it appears that email from this account is now pushed to the phone.

  • Multiple Exchange accounts in Mail.app - is this possible?

    Hi folks,
    I would like to start using Mail.app with my Exchange accounts.
    Now, does Mail.app support this feature?
    If not can it be at least set up in such a way that through one single Exchange account I can see my other exchange accounts by delegating all the privileges to that main exchange accounts and thus doing it indirectly?
    Thanks
    Alex

    Just use IMAP for the accounts. I have 4 Exchange accounts in my Mail app and they are all set up that way. but yes, there can only be 1 Exchange account (which I believe has more to do with the Exchange API than Macs)
    hope this helps.

  • Cannot connect Exchange account to mail app in Mavericks

    Hi all,
    I recently bought a new macbook air 13" and am trying to set up my email. I have a university email account with microsoft outlook/exchange which I used exclusively through the Office 365 web portal in a web browser for the past 3 years since I could not get it to sync with outlook on my old PC either. Now I am trying to connect that Outlook account to the Mail app on my new macbook and am getting nowhere.
    I input my email address and password - not recognized, even though it works perfectly on my iphone. The server is also not recognized. I get the error message "internet accounts couldnt log in to the exchange server autodiscover-s.outlook.com". I tried adding an "other" account in mail as well using the appropriate incoming and outgoing server addresses for office 365; no dice. Password is incorrect, outlook server is offline, etc etc etc.
    I was wondering if anyone knows how to get my account to connect in mail. I know this has been a common problem but I was not able to find an exact solution. Please forgive any of my ignorance as this is my first Mac computer.

    Peter: this is exactly what I have been doing, nothing is working. Still giving me an error that my password is wrong and it cannot reach the server.
    Linc: I tried this and was able to force it through setup. When I connected to the internet, it gave me an error saying my password was wrong.
    The password I am using is the one that goes along with my university email address that I use to login to the outlook web app along with my school .edu email address. Should I be using a different password for this exchange account?

  • Importing mail from Gmail into new exchange account in Mail App

    Hi, all,
    I have just started a new consultancy, but until now I have been using my personal Gmail account for emails. The company has just set me up with a company email address, to use with Outlook Webmail Access and the native Mail App in my Macbook Pro (running Lion - 10.7.5).
    So I have about 200 emails in my personal account which I'd like to put into my company account.
    I have filtered and labelled all the emails I need in Gmail, I just need a way to get them into the company account, either using the Webmail thing, or the Mail App.Can anyone tell me a better way than to individually forward each email to the new address?
    Cheers,
    Ed

    Hey Dave, let me see if I understand, you want to forward a certain date range of messages to your local email client, from your virtual email client(gmail)?
    As far as I know, Gmail is in beta form and has been for over a year. there is currently no feature for the purpose you specified. I have submitted a suggestion to the beta team that reads as follows
    "Provide a means to select multiple emails you have archived or otherwise, from any date or date range, and send them to one or more email addresses of your choosing.
    This should be an option either after a search result of your email is returned, or by manually selecting (check box) the emails you have stored, to be forwarded to any specified recipients."
    I'm sorry there is no current solution for your situation at this time, outside of using your mac to access your gmail account, and individually selecting each email and choosing "forward" to sent it to your mac email account. A Mac is a very powerful machine, and you can utilize the "automator" to create a custom script to handle the task for you.
    I am not sure what you are wanting to do with your emails once they are in your mac account, but if the end result is to print each one, you can do that from within gmail itself. If you just want a copy of them, they are perpetually saved in gmail also, until you reach your 2 gig limit.
    I think if we knew more details about what your end result or goal is, we could come up with a means to an end in either a non-traditional, or more creative way. (not to mention you get 2gig of gmail free, and you have to pay for your storage on .mac)

  • TS3276 I cant send large attachment using my exchange account through Mail app while can do so through the website of the sever of the email account!!!

    Any help?

    Not a problem with Mail. I often send attachments of 8-10MB.
    It IS your ISP.
    Please don't fire off an answer like this when you alreay said you were "not familiar with exchange accounts".  This actually has nothing to do with his ISP.  The 8 - 10 mb files you send, I am assuming are not from exchange accounts, seeing as though you are not familiar with them.
    In fact, this IS a problem with Mail.  It has been going on for quite some time.  It has to do with Mail interacting with MS exchange 2007 servers.

  • Gmail exchange is crashing mail

    ok so i have the iphone 4 on ios 4.0.1. i have three email accounts, an AOL, business, and gmail (on exchange) yesterday in the morning everything was fine and around 4pm i went to check my mail and app crashes, ok happens, open again, crashing and keeps crashing... so i go to spotlight and search and email... takes me to a sent email and it goes not crash. navigate over to my threaded emails ... crashes, search again, get into my AOL account, inbox/sent/trash all work, go over to my gmail sent works, go to gmails inbox, crashes....
    umm so i turn off gmail mail and go back into mail app everything fine, turn mail back on mail app crashes... so i narrowed it down to it being gmail...
    so i delete the gmail exchange account, of course mail works fine now, and put gmail back in, still crashing mail app ...
    now i went a restored the phone to factory and after it came back up the first thing i did was setup gmail exchange account, went into mail...... app crashes
    so i am wondering if anyone else has had this happened to them in the last day or so?

    you might want to try going to a computer and moving some email messages to some other folder. I'm wondering if the iphone bug is that it has a problem with maybe an attachment or some particular formatting of a message. If so, moving select messages to some non-viewed folder and seeing what works might identify which message is causing the problem.
    Good luck

  • Only 1 of my Mail accounts in mail.app won't show up in itunes!?

    Hi,
    So I have three email accounts in mail.app. 1 mobileme, 1 IMAP, and 1 Exchange. The MobileMe and the IMAP will show up in my mail accounts list in itunes, but my Exchange account doesn't show up. I was able to manually create the exchange account on my iPhone, so it's not a huge deal, but still... any ideas?
    Thank,
    Lou Teti

    lou tetl,
    The list in iTunes under the Info tab is the list of accounts you can transfer the settings for from your computer directly to the iPhone.
    It is not a list of the accounts on the iPhone, or a list of all accounts on your computer.
    Hope this helps,

  • Exporting Entourage Account to Mail.app

    I'd like to export my Entourage settings for an Exchange email account into Mail.app. When I open Mail.app and try the "import" option, it doesn't do anything. I have tried copying the information under the settings for this particular Entourage email account into Mail.app, but am unable to connect to the Exchange server.

    I'd like to see this too. I got a new job and CAN NOT get MAIL to work, but the account settings work in ENTOURAGE. I ONLY NEED TO IMPORT THE EMAIL ACCOUNT - NOT the contacts, calendar, etc.
    CAN I IMPORT AN EMAIL ACCOUNT - (NOT a "Mailbox")
    HELP & THANKS!

  • How to setup email account on mail app?

    I currently have an ".edu" account that I usually log-in through a browser.
    I usually place my email username in mail.office365.com then redirects me to adfs."school here".edu
    Then I usually do the actual login username and password for the organizational account.
    We are currently using the Outlook Web App on our school email.
    So, I don't know how to use this .edu account for the mail app in Windows 8.1.
    Is there any manual settings to add a microsoft account in windows 8.1?

    Hi,
    Did you mean that you want to add a “.edu” account to Mail App (Tile)in win8.1, if so, please open mail app, move mouse to the right edge, click Settings>Accounts>Add an account>Other Account.
    But to get started with Mail app, you need a Microsoft account, see detailed information in this link:

  • Better management of multiple accounts on Mail.app

    When using multiple accounts on Mail.app, it is possible to have different colors for each account, so that it is easier to avoid sending email from the wrong account?

    You're undoubtedly better off to set the mail on the server to forward to your central account, and only maintain one account in Mail. Trying to set up rules in Mail to download mail and then forward it is just going to become cumbersome, and runs the risk of creating some kind of infinite mail loop. (For example, someone sends something to one address, it gets forwarded but for some reason your primary account's mailbox is full. The other address gets the bounce notification and forwards it back to the primary, which generates another bounce... you see where this is going, I'm sure.

  • Configuring mail account in Mail App with restriction account on

    Hi there,
    How is possible to create an account in Mail App with the restriction Accounts enable?
    I explain myself. I configure all the iPads of my business with the restrictions enabled and select "Don´t Allow Changes" on the Accounts tab.
    Settings > General > Restrictions> ( Enter Passcode ) >Enable Restrictions> Accounts > Don´t Allow Changes
    It suppouses to prevent any change or create an account on Mail App, but I´ve found a couple of iPads with a Yahoo and GMail account configured in the Mail App while the restrictions still enabled.
    Of course, users doesn´t know the Passcode and any of the general setting where modified.
    Is there any other way ( via web perhaps, no high tech at all ) to configure an account in a restricted iPad?
    I´m using iPad 2 ( iOS 5.0.1 )
    I can´t figure out how, and it´s driving me crazy.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks gyrhead for the answer.
    I do have Installing and Deleting Apps turned on so users can´t install or delete anything.
    Guessing a four digits passcode in 10 attemps is very dificult, I discard that option.
    There is somehow to add a Yahoo o Gmail account with account Restictions Enable.
    Safari has no restriction indeed, except "private brownsing", so it might come from that way, but I can´t figured out how you might configure a Gmail o Yahoo account straight to the Mail App using just Safari...

  • Help With Hooking Up A Google Apps Mail Account With Mail.app v 4.4?

    I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out with this, basically I'm at university, and my university E-mail account is set up through google apps. It looks like this "[email protected]", and I'd like to be able to access this account through Mail.app, but I'm struggling to get the two to play nice, does anyone know what incoming and outcoming settings I need to use to get it to work, or if there's any settings I need to alter in Gmail itself first?
    Thanks a lot in advance for any help anyone can give me.
    Sam

    Sorry, sorted it, just had to fill it all out like a normal IMAP Gmail account but fill out my entire email address anytime it asked for a username.

  • Cannot delete accounts in Mail.app

    Title states the problem. I cannot delete accounts in Mail.app whether in the Mail preferences or Internet Accounts tab of the System Preferences. I have dead e-mail addresses and when I click the minus, in Internet Accounts, the account flashes off and comes right back, complete with a fancy little animation. When I do it in Mail, it tells me "The operation couldn't be completed." and I should try going to Internet Accounts.
    How do I purge these accounts from the system? I've already deleted the mailboxes in ~/Library/Mail/V2.
    Thanks.

  • Completely delete Exchange account from Mail client on Mac

    I'm having a problem with a several e-mail messages in my Mail client.  These messages seem "stuck" in that whenever I try to delete these messages, I get an error message in Mail that says:
    An error occurred while moving messages to mailbox “Trash — Exchange”.
    I named the account Exchange.  These messages are NOT on my Exchange mail server anymore - I also access my mail from an Outlook client as well and these "stuck" messages do not appear in Outlook which is pulling directly from Exchange.
    My first attempt to resolve was to delete the account from the Mail client and set it up again.  All of the folders and e-mail messages re-appeared almost instantly so it obviously didn't go out to the Exchange server and pull down over 100K e-mail messages in 30 seconds.
    Then I spoke to AppleCare.  They directed me to the Library to delete a subfolder in the Mail folder that appeared to contain the messages.  When I emptied the Trash, it appeared that the 100K messages were being deleted.  I went to Mail to setup the account again.  Again, the messages reappeared quickly as before and the problem messages were still there as if they never were deleted.
    So now I'm looking for a way to completely the Exchange account and all of its local data from Mail.  I want the Mail client to start from scratch and go out to the Exchange server to get the data like the account had never been setup on this Mac before.  I'd also opt for a fresh install of Mail but I have a MBA 11 so I don't have OS media or a DVD drive.
    Somewhere Mail is clealry caching info on that account.  It's apparent when I've deleted the account and then re-opened Mail to set it back up the first time.  Whenever the dialog box appears, it remembers my Exchange e-mail account information in the field so it's obviously pulling that information from somewhere locally on the Mac, not from the server.

    As you say, removing the Exchange account on Mail really doesn't delete it. It's caching something because of how quickly it finds the folders etc. if you add the account again.
    I was having a lot of very strange problems with Mail/Contacts/Calendar and certainly a new user I set up from scratch worked with Mail etc. straight away. I didn't test it for days but within seconds it pulled down all the correct emails and the number of unread tallied with my iPhone which was one of the annoying problems I was having.
    One of the things I read elsewhere is how useful doing a Mailbox/Rebuild from within Mail is. I just tried it now on my existing user name and it certainly seems to have helped. It immediately refreshed the Inbox and had it accurate. However, despite having it set to "1 min checking for new mail" after several mins it seems to have hung again and isn't refreshing.
    Mail for OSX has caused me a million more problems that for iOS which just works every time. I don't see how Apple can make it work so smoothly on iOS and give loads of problems on OSX.
    Have you tried the Mailbox/Rebuild?
