1 POP email sync'd on 2 Macs. Possible? (.Mac?)

I have a single POP email account I would like to manage across 2 Macs (home and work) such that they are kept up to date with each other. Is that possible? I do have a .Mac account if that is necessary for the syncrhonization. Any tips appreciated.

Hi! For syncing I can recommend Chronosync:
http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html
Very powerful (customisable), and you can install ChronoAgent to avoid having to mount external locations. Traffic goes over your local network, and not externally as dropbox does. ChronoAgent also has the ability to encrypt data transfers.
They also have free demo trials..
Hope this helps!

How can email sync between iphone4 and mac?

I want to read email once on either my iPhone4 or Mac, then delete the email from BOTH DEVICES. I don't want to read the same email on my iPhone4 and my Mac.
Do I need to manage this with my internet service provider (in thsi case Cox), or are there setting in iPhone 4 to take care of this duplicate email phenomenon?
Thanks.

it will only remove deleted mails when you sync it with the computer
and only one accounts that are set as sync accounts so not when you set them up on the iphone itself
in which case it's a standalone account not a sync one
synced accounts are created in the info tab on the iphone when connected to itunes
otherwise you have to make sure that your email account is pop3 rather then imap and that it's set to delete
mails from server when downloaded that should work
but it needs to be set on both the iphone and the computer

I just need .me email, sync capabilities, is this still possible in Lion?

I have already updated a Mac-mini to Lion but since it is only used as an entertainment system, I do not want email associated with it, just my Apple ID and password so we can purchase movies from the Apple Store. But my MacPro desktop I am considering taking to Lion because I use my me email address so much. Along with my iPhone and Laptop (older 2.1 MacBookPro ) I want to be able to sync contacts and receive emails. I DO NOT WANT to use any Cloud which I consider just a Big Brother guy looking over my shoulder. Not that I have anything to be concerned about, just do not want to trust someone I do not know.I personally liked ,me and the entire idisk idea and i was hoping iCloud was actually just an updated name.
All the swipes and pinches I understand I can block off in Lion and reset to old finger movements, is this correct?
Just concerned about Lion, I have gone thru my MacPro's system and made sure 100% of my applications are universal or Intel is this enough?
A lot of questions about Lion and to be honest I do not trust Apple to be honest with all of us on the quality of Lion, but I do like the idea of staying current but only if it helps my system of Mac's. I also have 6 or 7 older Mac's I use in different capacities in my studio, one of which I use as my office computer, but I guess now I will no longer be able to sync my contacts or receive my me emails since it is 10.4.11, is that correct?

You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection
Try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Snow Leopard Server and ISP POP email

Hi there
Just wondering if the Mac Mini Server with Snow Leopard Server could manage the following:
Rather than set up my own domain for email, I am wondering if SLS can be set up to retrieve my POP email from my ISP mail server and then serve that mail using an IMAP mail box so that I can then access what were originally POp emails from anywhere.
Is this possible?

I'm facing this same problem... is there by any chance some sort of "guide" to using fetchmail and it's features? Or a GUI-interface for fetchmail?
I'll be the first to admit that I need training and such about working with OsX (server), and I'm working on that part

2 MACs - Can I use .mac to sync POP emails from MAIL when traveling

I use Yahoo Business (POP) email with the MAC MAIL software. I use a PowerBook G4 at home and just got a new iBook G4 for travel. I want to set up the travel computer and MAIL to receive and send mail while on the road. 2 Questions:
1) In a perfect world: I want to sync the emails (both sent and received) I worked with on the road with my home computer so I don't have to re-do the work I just did on the road. Can I use .mac to sync my mailbox folders before downloading the messages at home or will this corrupt the library file and make me rebuild my folders every time? I know I can set up the MAIL account to leave the received message on the server for my home computer to download, but this causes a lot more work!
2) If (1) is not possible, how can I capture the files I sent on the road to my home computer SENT folder? I save all sent messages at home.

Via the .Mac website, you can have .Mac check the POP account's incoming mail server to download received messages from the POP account to your .Mac account's Inbox mailbox.
In the interim, send a change of email address to all contacts providing your .Mac email address and start sending messages with your .Mac account.
When creating a .Mac account in Mail - Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages are stored on the server by default along with received messages. If you want to keep all these mailboxes/messages synchronized with Mail on both Macs, make sure these settings for the account are the same with Mail on both Macs.

Syncing 7 pushing POP email from my mac to iPhone with Mobile ME

I was under the impression that the mobile sync function in iphone 2.0 would allow me to push my pop email in Mail, calenders, and contacts on my mac to my iphone. I soon realized that I would have to subscribe to Mobile to accomplish this. Though now I have subscribed to mobile me all I am able to do is push calenders and contacts from my mac and not my pop email from Mail. Am I correct in saying this is not possible? Why would Apple leave this function out of mobile sync? I was able to do this on my MotoQ with Microsoft active sync! Any help?

The MobileMe sync function is for a MobileMe account only.
I wasn't aware that ActiveSync allowed for syncing with non-Exchange accounts.
You can have MobileMe check the incoming mail server for a POP account, or you can have your POP account forwarded to your MobileMe account or email address. The problem with this is when replying to or forwarding a message received from another account, the message will be sent from your MobileMe account.
The Mail.app on your Mac includes a Reply To field for entering a different email address to appear as the email address to be used by a recipient when replying to a received message from another account, but the iPhone's Mail client does not include a Reply To field for the message header. With the Mail.app, I believe this muse be entered manually for each message.

I want to sync my 3rd party email to all of my MACs. If i delete an email on one device i would like it to delete on all the others.

I want to sync my 3rd party email to all of my MACs. If i delete an email on one device i would like it to delete on all the others. Anyone have any luck. Maybe icloud? How do i switch it for exsiting emails on Apple mail. thanks!

I was also wondering why iCloud doesn't delete e mail across all devices when I delete it on one device.
It does, provided it is an iCloud email account (which is an IMAP account). Email from non-iCloud email accounts such as Comcast, etc. is entirely separate and is not managed in any way by iCloud.

I am also confused by the discussion that POP accounts don't sync using iCloud as I have been using my Comcast POP account as well as several other POP e mail accounts and I receive e mails from all these accounts across all my devices without issue (Mac Mini, MacBookPro 13, iPhone5).
As mentioned, your non-iCloud POP accounts are entirely separate email accounts and are not managed by iCloud. You are receiving email from your POP accounts on all your devices because you have the accounts set up on all your devices; but the email is being sent from your other email providers such as Comcast, not by iCloud.
sjc47 wrote:
When you say POP accounts don't sync are you all referring to the deleting of e mails which was one of the subjects of the original post or is it something else I'm missing?
Unlike IMAP accounts, POP/POP3 accounts only deliver email to your devices. Any subsequent changes that you make an email on any of your devices such as deleting a message, marking it as read, etc., will not be synced to your other devices. This will give you a little more information on the difference: http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2008/05/getting-gmail-anywhere-imap-versus-pop.htm l.

TS4002 iCloud for email is not on my Mac. How can I get email and iCal to sync with iphone and ipad.

iCloud for email is not on my Mac. It should be under Internet and wireless in System Preferences but it is not. Basically I am trying to get iCloud running successfully on my Mac for email and Calendar so that it will sync with my iPad and iPhone. I was an MobilMe customer and I've been having trouble with this conversion to iCloud. Thanks.

I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works. Is anyone else having problems like this? All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

I'm having a trouble getting icloud mail without my personal email. All icloud features syncs unless mail didn't sync I am running mac ox 10.7.2 any ideas?

I’m having a trouble getting icloud mail without my personal email. All icloud features syncs normally unless mail didn’t sync I am running mac ox 10.7.2 any ideas?

I discovered that my cord was bad. I used someone else's cord and then it worked - that's how I was able to determine it was the cord, so I replaced it. (In case someone else has a similar problem.)
BTW, I'm still having a problem syncing my iCal, so I posted that problem in the iCal forum. If you think you can help, please look for my message there.

The easiest way is to use an IMAP mail account exclusively. Stay away from "On My Mac" mailboxes/folders and POP3 accounts.

Email syncing on a Mac

Hey All,
I just switched from an iPhone to a Blackberry. I am sure this is just a simple set up thing, but I have not been able to figure out how to get my phones email to sync with my MacBook Pro desktop? For example, when I read and responded to an email on my iPhone, when I opened mail on my laptop, the accounts would sync so I was not spending time reading emails twice. The other issue is that I do not have a record of sent emails that are sent from the phone. What was also nice on the iPhone was the feature enabling me to keep calendars and contacts synced at all times as well. Is any of this possible on the blackberry? I am wondering if I can do it when I sync via pocket mac or missing sync at the end of each day, however I have not gotten either of them to work either. I would think that Blackberry has the email syncing thing figured out at least. My email accounts are all set up as imap.....its also annoying that everytime I send an email from my phone, I get a copy of it on my desktop as new mail? Someone tell me this all does get better!
Thanx in advance for any help you can toss my way

Vector, Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
If your BlackBerry is on a personal BIS account setup, you won't have your mail and messages reconciled. Sorry.
Calendar and Contacts--yes, via the USB cable and Desktop Manager, or on a Mac, with PocketMac or Missing Sync.
Blackberry actually does have the mail reconciation figured out (way before the iPhone, lol), but you have to pay for that service. Called BES, enterprise service.
Good luck.

HT6030 Mac Mail 7.1 has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server

I have suddenly realised (over the past 2 weeks) that Mail has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server, at first I thought it was just that no-one was sendfing me any, however, I created an Account with Thunderbird and suddenly received dozens of them. I've tried many of the "googled" fixes but none seem to work for me....
Can anyone help me to get my Apple Mail performing correctly please.

Do a backup.
Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.
Information learned from Linc Davis. leonie also supplied some information.

How do I transfer outgoing emails from iphone to my mac? (I have use POP3)

I have now a small trouble with my mail account. I would like to switch from POP3 to IMAP serwer, but first I would like to copy all my sent mails from my iPhone to my mac (where my phone is sync). How can I do that?

iTunes doesn't sync the actual emails, only the account settings.
So, those sent emails won't sup up in the POP email account on your iPhone.

Email sync with my computer?

Does iPhone sync email messages with my email app (Mail) so I can read the messages on anyone of my iPhone or MacBook after sync?

No - the sync function syncs email account information only for the accounts selected via iTunes.
If you are accessing an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes/messages will be kept synchronized automatically.
If a POP account, there is a selection for removing messages from the server when downloaded with the email client used on your Mac and the the iPhone's email client. You can select "Never" for the account settings on the iPhone so no messages downloaded by the iPhone will be removed from the server and will still be available when checking the account with the email client used on your MacBook but.... if you remove messages from the server when downloaded by the email client used on your MacBook, those messages will not be available for download when the iPhone's email client.
And the only way to have sent messages available on both is to CC yourself.
POP accounts are not designed to be accessed with email clients on different computers since there is no way to keep server stored mailboxes and messages synchronized with multiple email clients used on different computers as with an IMAP account.
