Adding mailbox's to mail accounts

How do you add mailboxes,
I want so same some emails and cannot work out how to add these.
Thanks

Not possible to add mailboxes with the iPad's Mail application.
With an IMAP account, you can create additional server stored mailboxes with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account, or via webmail access for the account using a browser. All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPad's Mail application and are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
The same is not possible with a POP account.

How do I add a new mailbox to a mail account on iphone?

How do I add a new mailbox to a mail account on iphone?

One thing that might help out.
To add a folder or a mailbox to your existing account, you need to add it on your computer.
Now, this will work and reflect to the iphone if you are using an imap or exchange account.
If you are using a pop account, you will not be able to add a folder to an account on the iphone.
Hope this helps.

Adding a new e-mail account

Can I add a new e-mail account just to send or forward out messages? The reason of this is that I do not want these messages downloaded off the server.  I use another (non BB) e-mail client that accesses this account and I want the mail to go there. When I tried to add this account with a dummy password, BB could not verify it and would not let me add it. Is there a work around?
Solved!

Hi there!
If I am understanding you correctly, you want to be able to send from an email account on your BB, but not receive from that account on the BB. If so, then don't use a dummy password. Rather, configure the account properly but then set the default filter to "Do Not Forward" and then nothing will come down to the BB from the Server.

Adding A Second MobileMe Mail Account?

My wife has a ME mail account. I can't seem to get into the ME website via Safari so she can check her email. Is there a way to create multiple accounts on an iPad so she can also use it to check her email?

Accessing a MobileMe account with the iPad's Mail application is the only way to access the account with the iPad, which is the same with an iPhone or iPod Touch.
I think it can also be done with a different browser, like iCab, but Mail is certainly much better.

Adding an additional e-mail account

Has anyone figured out how to add another e-mail account? I want to be able to check msn and school account but I have no clue how to add those. Any advice?

Can you give us some more info - in the setup page (from the settings apps, for mail), I assumed you clicked on the "Add Account" choice, then "Other". At this point you enter your name, email address, password and description. When saved, you get a screen where you choose IMAP or POP and then enter the server info.
Does this not work for you? What problem are you running into and at what point?

Adding a Pop Exchange Mail Account

I can't get this to work at all. It takes FOREVER then finally fails by saying my outbound username or password was incorrect.
This worked just fine w/ my Blackberry before I got the iPhone 3G. I also can go over to Outlook and create a new POP account using the same settings and it works just fine.
Anyone have a solution for this?

For anyone that has had the same problem, I finally figured out a solution:
1) To connect to an Exchange box using POP, since Exchange 2003 does not (by default) support the "LAST" command, you have to enable it by editing the registry (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;282400). It works after that.
2) If connecting using IMAP, then besides having to open IMAP and LDAP on your firewall, when specifying the UserName in the UserName/Password Criteria fields, DO NOT specify the Domain name (like you normally would domain/username). It'll figure itself out.

Removing mailbox/folder in "Mail"

Hi there, I've started using "mail" and I've added my 3 e-mail account, which appear under "inbox" but all my gmail appers again, under "gmail" I want to delete the Gmail folder but it wont let me, I get a message
"the mailbox "(gmail)" could not be deleted, The IMAP command "DELETE" failed with server error: Internal fold cannot be deleted. (failure)"

The number of messages contained in a selected mailbox is available at the very top of the Mail.app window directly above the message list along with the name of the mailbox.

Is there a way to default send from one mail account across multiple mail accounts?

I have a user who has her own Exchange mailbox account. I have added two separate Exchange mail accounts. I want to be able to force her (even if she is in one of the other two mail accounts) to send from her own Exchange account. I know you can manually change it every time, but is there a way to force it automatically? Thanks.

Nope. There is no universal mailbox on the iPhone.

Trouble accessing 2nd e-mail address within same e-mail account.

I successfully added my g-mail account, with my main e-mail address, to my I-phone 5. However, I don't use my main e-mail address anymore and had created a 2nd e-mail address within g-mail where I read my mail. I don't see any way on the I-phone to access this 2nd e-mail address. I tried adding a separate g-mail account in settings with the 2nd e-mail address, but I-phone blocks access this way. Does anyone know how I can select/connect to the e-mail address where I actually read my mail?

I still have a lot of e-mails at the first e-mail address that I have not yet read. When I set up e-mail on my I-Phone it asked for the main e-mail address so that is the one I put in. I wonder if I edit that to the 2nd e-mail address instead if that will work - I will try it.

Can't Add Another E-Mail Account on Itouch

When trying to add GMail keep getting error message "can't connect using SSL" anyone know what that means?? Help please

Hi.
I successfully added a second IMAP mail account to my touch last night. I found it is easier if you disable the account that is already there, then add the second account and get it working first. I think the second account copies some of the settings from the first account, one of which is SSL.
SSL is the same encryption that your browser uses when you have a secure connection to a web site, like your personal banking. It is a good idea to use SSL for your connection to the Gmail server(s).

Wowway or wideopenwest e-mail accounts

Yes, you can.
Is your business email on BES, a corporate enterprise server, or a nomal POP/IMAP account on BIS?
Both allow up to 10 email accounts to be configured. If you are on a corporate BES, you may need your BES Admin permission to do so.

Mail.app - Multiple mailboxes on same AD-account

Mod may move my question the the right section of the community.
Hello,
Trying to set up my work-mailboxes in the Mail-app. I have my personal email ([email protected]) but also several other mails (for example: [email protected] och [email protected]) that is used by more people than me. Permissions to these are controlled via the AD-account (AD\myname).
I manage to set up my personal mail ([email protected]) without any problems, but when it comes to adding the other mailboxes, mail just won't do it.
I get an error message "An error accoured trying to set up the Mail-account. An unknown error occurred"
Does anyone have any idéas on how to set up Mail with several mailboxes controlled by the same AD-accound?

Hello FRA_ALLEN.
I tried to add a new POP account c@mydomain and got a failed message
- username or password not correct.
Please, post the exact error message you get when trying to do that. To get the error message in English, go to System Preferences > International, move English to the top of the list and restart Mail.

HT201320 I am the added e-mail on my wife's iPad. I can not delete any mail in trash? Thus Trash is collecting in bin. I can delete trash in her Mail account?

II'm having trouble deleting messages in trash bin in mail, only on the added e-mail account. The primary account functions fine! I note several users are having the same problem!

Hey BSK_AplSprtCm,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Mail account. It sounds like you may need to configure which mailbox is your Trash mailbox. To do so, see the following:
Mail (Mavericks): If messages aren’t stored where expected on the mail server
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14957
If there’s another mailbox on the IMAP server (for example, Sent Items) that contains the messages you’re looking for, you can have Mail use that mailbox to store messages. To do so, select that mailbox (listed under the account’s name and icon) in the Mail sidebar, choose Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For, then choose Drafts, Sent, Trash, or Junk, as applicable. You can select any mailbox on your IMAP server to store draft, sent, deleted, or junk messages. If Mail can’t upload messages to a server mailbox, copies of the messages aren’t saved.
Thanks,
Matt M.

When trying to update my Mail Account Mailbox Behaviours settings, after making the changes when I try to close the settings pane the following messages occur: Invalid Incoming Mail Server The “Incoming Mail Server” field cannot be empty. The incoming mail server box has in light grey colour: p02-imap.mail.me.com in it and I cannot edit its content. Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?

Hi all,
Mattreichenbach is probably on the right track here with a reset of settings. I think I've determined the issue has to do with cached account information and inconsistencies for the account name. This seems to crop up when I've changed my password and it hasn't propagated fully to all the servers, devices, certificates, etc.
Hopefully many here are on their way to restoration of service by now but it's clear that a lot of people are having the same issues. Very frustrating and definitely something Apple needs to resolve: incoming mail server field grayed out, incorrect autopopulation of different fields, other unanticipated behaviors. If you're still having issues, though, here's what worked for me...
First, head to the iCloud preferences pane in System Configuration and choose "Sign Out". When I did this it prompted me with a number of "are you sure" type questions about retaining information on my local machine. I chose to delete/remove the info each time simply because it should all be restored by the cloud and I didn't want to risk a massive duplication of my data... I will say, I'm back up and running with no issues so I suspect you can make the same delete/remove choices... But use your own judgment. I don't want you to lose any data (ie.. please use care as you do this because I cannot bear the thought of causing anyone to experience the pain of data loss).
Once you've signed out of iCloud, restart your system. When you get back in, head to the Mail, Contacts and Calendars section of your System Preferences and add your account back by choosing the brushed aluminum "iCloud" button. When it asks for your account name, use your @iCloud.com email address. I am all but certain my issue had started because one of my devices (iPhone or whatever) had been set up with an email alias specified instead of my @iCloud.com address.
Apple, if you're reading through any of these issues (there are TONS of users having this same problem). Take note, that your icloud service somewhat frequently is not responding and yet tells the user that the password is wrong and this prompts people to be changing their passwords unnecessarily. This has happened to me on numerous occasions. Also, I noticed that last week's outage corresponded to a VERY similar outage exactly one year ago to the day. Sounds like planned maintenance to me and I think you could do a better job notifying folks so we're not wasting HUGE amounts of time troubleshooting a problem that we have no hope of fixing.
Hope that helps some of you!
