How to set up an email account on one only one machine

I need to be able to set up an email account on only one machine. I know I can disable the account on other machines, but that's not what I want. I don't want the email account to appear in the account list on my other machines, even if it is disabled. I don't want my other machines to know about the account at all.
How do I set up my accounts so that the email account shows up on only one machine?

Perhaps some pictures would help explain.
If in Mail I right click the account I get this window.
I want to remove the account "B" from this computer. I select it and click "-" and am taken to "Internet Accounts" in "Settings"
There I see this.
If I now click "-", I get the following choices.
Now, I don't want "Remove From All", as I would like to keep the account on my other computer. So I click "Turn Off Account" which results in this
The account is inactive, but is still in the list of accounts. I want to remove it from the list of accounts (without removing it from the other computer.)
How do I do that?

  • How to set up an email account on iPad3 -

    a question on how to set up an email account on iPad3 - In Settings - Mail - it allows me to choose a name and submit but then it says "can't open mail, try later". I use my apple iD  to open iCloud.com on my computer, but can't access mail from there either.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • How to set a new email account for iCloud?

    How set a new email account for iCloud?

    There are two separate things you can do.
    You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account, and if it has @mac.com or @me.com versions these cannot be reinstated once deleted.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
    Or if you want a completely separate account you will have to create a new iCloud account and sign into it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars. Note that any one device can create only three iCloud accounts.

  • How to set up an email account?

    I would like to have an email account [email protected]
    How's that possible?
    Right now, my email is @gmail.com and also Apple ID is [email protected] Can I create an email account to iCloud and how? And also, can I change my Apple ID [email protected] or something?

    Sign in with your Apple ID in System Preferences>iCloud and check Mail in the checklist there. You will be asked to create an @icloud.com address. You can't make this address your Apple ID.

  • E52 - How to set the edefault email account used w...

    Had my E52 for a few days and it;s a great phone. I've had the same issues as others with email setup but have worked my way through it.
    At the moment I have a GMail private account working all OK and a mail for exchange account configured for Gmail so my calendar items will sync, that works fine too.
    The issue I have is when I hold down the messaging key on the keypad to start a new email I get the error "unable to complete command".
    By testing I have found that this occurs because the phone is trying to open up a new email from within the exchange account, but I want it to default to my gmail account which works fine for sending.
    How can I make the default account for sending my Gmail and not exchange, the options for the shortcut key only specificy "email" and does not allow you to specify which account.
    Thanks

    I've resolved this.
    Settings > Email Key Settings > Google Mail
    Email key works fine now.
    This phone is so good for the money.

  • How to  Set UP an Email Account with kpn as Service provider

    I am struggling to creat an Email Account on iPad 2 Even After following all advice given. What else could I try?

    Are those emails in the server? If you've already downloaded them to your computer they might be gone, you'd have to check the settings for mail.  Your iPad can only download that which is there.

  • How do I get my email accounts to synch from one device to another so I don't have to check my email twice?

    I don't want to have to go through my email on my iPhone  & again in my iPad. Is there some setting to  remember what I do (deletes, flags, etc) on
    one device to the other?

    It all depends on which email service you are using and whether the account is POP or IMAP.  If deleting an email on one device does not delete it on another device using the same account, then most likely your account is POP, an older technology.  Consider setting up a new account that is IMAP, that type of service lets you do what you are asking about.

  • How can I set up 2 email accounts in Mail

    It's me again.
    I'm trying to set up Mail 2.1.3. in 10.4.11. I have 2 email accounts. I can enter one just fine but it won't take another. When I try, it says that I "already have a POP account". How do I set up 2 email accounts? I see where I can enter the 2 email addresses by separating them by a comma. But the 2 addresses have different passwords and the password box takes only one password at a time. Any ideas?

    It's hard for me to tell by what has been written so far, but it may be referring to what you are entering for the account description. That is, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > Acct Info, for each account it has several entries: Acct Type (that you can't change), Description, email address, full name. If the first account's description is POP, then make the second account's description POP2. I use terms like, "home", "work", and "school" for my accounts' descriptions.
    If this is not what is going on, please write down every step you do, and every entry you make, as you try to configure your second email account and post it back here. Naturally, do NOT disclose your actual email address(es) or mail account login name or its password to us here.

  • HT204053 I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password.  then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password.  how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

    how do I set up my email account on my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 so that the emails are downloaded to my computer and removed from the ISP server?

    When setting up the email using Apple 'Mail' (version 8.2 (2070.6)) I do not get an option to set up my email as using POP.  I can go to Outlook from Microsoft and I get a chance to set my mail up using POP, however I would prefer to use the Apple supplied 'Mail' email programme as I'm using Office 365 and may not want to continue the subscription sometime in the future.
    Any advice on setting Mail to POP would be appreciated.  A not so Happy Wombat.
