Alerts from iCal to Mail Being Tagged as Junk

All of the iCal alerts I have set to send an email to my email address are being tagged by Mail as Junk. The only filter I have set for Junk is "if not in my address book." How do I get this to stop?
Thanks.
Ted

This is what I have set up to prevent this problem:
Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail
Uncheck: Filter junk mail before applying my rules
Mail > Preferences > Rules
Add Rule: iCal Alarms
If all of the following conditions are met:
From Contains [email protected]
Subject Begins with Alarm
Perform the following actions:
Set Color of background Red
Stop evaluating rules

Sending e-mail from Ical to mail is not possible?!

Hi out there!
I desperately need to know how I use the alarm from Ical where it sends me a reminder by mail. When I choose "send e-mail" in the "alarm-window" in my event it says something like this: "You have to add your own card to your e-mailadress in your adressbook before you can use post-alarms" (this is translated from danish)
Does anyone know what to do?
I have my own adress in my adressbook... How do I get ical to find it?
Any help will be very appreciated!
Thanks!

I have the same problem and need an answer too.

Is there any way to add a task/reminder from iCal or Mail besides adding flags that have no date reminders?

Am I missing something? Is there a 3rd party software that does this? I came from Outlook with the ability to add tasks to my daily to-dos and give them start/end dates. Where can I do this with OSX 10.7?

Thanks for the feedback Kip - I did see this option in iCal, which BTW is not optimal at all as you have to retype the action item and due date. I was looking for a way to add to dos and reminders with due dates directly from Mail as I did with Outlook. I get a ton of emails that I want to follow-up on, but want to chhose when I get reminded, and actually have a remider pop-up when it is due/overdue. Hope that makes sense.

Can I send an alert from iCal to a group in my contacts?

First post so please go gentle.
I have just set up an iCloud.com calendar and successfully synched to my iphone and ipad. I have also set up so I can update contacts via iCloud. All working great so far.
Anyway, I manage my son's football team and have a calendar for their fixtures, with the events containing info such as kick off time, and location of the match. In my contacts, I have a group for player's parents, and would ususally have to manually send a message each week reminding them of the game, kick off time etc. Is there a way that I can get iCal to automatically send a reminder or alert to this group by email with this information?
I hope that is clear? If there's not a way to do it using the native apps, does anyone know of any 3rd pary apps that can do this? Or do I need to maybe switch to Google?
Thanks
Mark

How can I stop someone from using my mail id to send junk mail?

It does not happend all that often, but occasionaly I get a message that someone (who I don't know and is not in my address book) received an email from me that I did not send. Is there a way to stop that or protect my from that happening?

There may not be too much that you can do since it's most likely not originating from your email account. There are a slew of Windows viruses and worms that scan the infected computer for email addresses and then send out emails with spoofed From: addresses that it finds.
Just one example of a virus generated email taken from Symantec's website
English:
From: Spoofed
Subject: I've_got your EMail on my_account!
Message:
Hello,
First, Very Sorry for my bad English.
Someone is sending your private e-mails on my address.
It's probably an e-mail provider error!
]-f
At time, I've got over 10 mails on my account, but the recipient are you.
I have copied all the mail text in the windows text-editor for you & zipped then.
Make sure, that this mails don't come in my mail-box again.
bye

Have you ever responded? The email that you're receiving may even be from a similiar virus.

Invite Email not being sent from iCal from a Google Apps calendar

Hello,
I am running Mac OS X 10.6.5, iCal 4.0.4, and am attempting to do the following from a Google Apps calendar I have setup in iCal. Please note that it's not gmail, it's Google Apps. If that makes a difference. That being said...
I am trying to create a meeting invite from iCal. I am able to create the invite and add attendees with no problem. When I hit send (from iCal), the invitees do not receive an email notification of the event, but it does appear their calendar (both in iCal and via Google Calendar on the web). I need an email to be sent to the invitees that they have been invited to a meeting, not just to have it appear on their calendars.
When I create the meeting invite via Google Calendar on the Web the invitees do receive an email notification (as specified in their calendar preferences). The issue only happens when the meeting invite is created in iCal.
When an invitee accepts or declines a meeting via iCal I receive an acceptance or declining email. Just not when the meeting invite is sent.
Also, I am able to create a meeting on one of the "On My Computer" calendars in iCal, invite people, and a meeting invitation is sent as expected.
And again, the invitees have notification of meeting invites turned on in their calendar settings (as is shown by the fact that when the invite is sent out via Google Calendar on the Web they receive an email with the invite).
Thanks! Any assistance would be awesome.

That was actually my post on the Google forums
Here is what I have found so far (and hopefully some of my assumptions are correct, because we're making the full switch to Google Apps this weekend and I am assuming it will work after this). This is long, but I'm trying to be thorough. Also note that I have updated to 10.6.6 since the time I first posted my last message.
We are currently piloting Google Apps, so our primary domain (which I will refer to from now on as domain.com) still points to our old exchange servers. Mail is currently being delivered to our Google Apps pilot accounts the following way:
1. User sends an email to [email protected]. This email is delivered to our old Exchange servers.
2. Once the email is received on our old Exchange servers it gets forwarded to our Google Apps test domain (gtest.domain.com).
This seems to be an important piece of the puzzle as our primary domain (domain.com) shows up on the Google Apps for Admin dashboard as improperly setup (which is correct, because we're currently piloting)
So, in iCal I have my Google Apps account setup (I'm one of the pilot users) the following way. I added the Account as Google calendar in iCal, but once the account shows up it shows up as a CalDAV account.
Under the account information tab:
CalDAV
Description: [email protected]
User name: [email protected]
Password: my password
Under the server settings tab (*NOTE: these were entered in automatically when I setup the calendar as a Google calendar)
Server address: www.google.com
Server path: the path to my calendar.
Use SSL is checked
Use Kerberos v5 is NOT checked
So, during my testing I was sending meeting invites from people who were in the Google Apps pilot to other people who were in the Google Apps pilot. When I was doing that, no invitations were getting sent.
I created a new email account on our exchange server ([email protected]) but did NOT set it up to be a part of the Google Apps pilot (this means that emails were not being forwarded from [email protected] to [email protected]). Doing this successfully delivered all invites, cancellations, and meeting updates from iCal!
From what I can tell there must be something going on (probably my own fault) when a calendar invite is sent from my Google Apps account, through our old Exchange system, and then back to our Google Account. My assumption is it has something to do with the fact that our MX records for domain.com currently point to our old exchange servers, and the MX records for gtest.domain.com point to the Google Apps servers. It may also have something to do with the SPF record which only allows emails from domain.com to be sent from our Exchange servers.
Those are just guesses though as I am not very knowledgeable in that area.
I hope this helps and I would love to hear about anyone else working on this issue.

E-mail links from iCal event - not working in Yosemite

My workflow has always depended on dragging e-mails from Mail to iCal
This generates link in ical event "Show in mail" - giving me option to find the e-mail with one click from iCal
Since Yosemite install the links go wrong!
I can generate several events from several e-mails and all links point me to the same random e-mail. I haven't yet found clear pattern in this randomness, but it seems to link to the first mail-to-iCal created after sleep/restart, but not always...
Anybody experiencing similar bug?
Tried "mailbox" > "rebuid" with no result.
Any more ideas?
I'm on MB Pro 2009 using POP-accounts for mail but the random-link behavior is just same when dragging mails from my icloud account.

Well it's good news i'm not alone in this - frustrating indeed!
Searching for solutions with no result so far.
I've been migrating my user library from one opsys to other since Leopard i guess, so probably i should just do a clean install one day - this MUST help
My workaround after a week of being just unable to manage my incoming information was to use Notes
Dragging emails to notes content still works, and in a way i kind of like it - u can keep a single note with several links to different emails etc. At least for now it seems like a decent substitute. Organizing notes to folders is helpful too, but i guess you can't organize folders in iOS which is really bad.
So - still hoping to move back to my iCal

I just switched from Outlook to Mail and now the sent messages are not being displayed. Help, please.

Back up all data. Rebuild the mailbox.

TS3276 I receive a pop up from ICal saying the server does not recognize me user name and password. This started yesterday. I have no problems with receiving or sending emails through Mail

I receive a pop-up from ICal saying the server does not recognize my user name and password for my me.com email address. This started yesterday and occurs about every 5 minutes or so. There are no problems with receiving or sending email through Mail. I did change me email password several days ago but have no problems sending/receiving since then.

I fixed the problem. I opened Preferences in ICal and entered my new password. No more pop-ups

Issue with emails being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders

Hi, I am experiencing an issue where emails are being deleted from my Yahoo mail folders when the weekly Sunday night purge of the Yahoo Trash folder is carried out by Yahoo. These are mails that have been moved from my inbox via the iphone mail app.
I have a similar problem with Outlook 2010 on my laptop but not with Outlook 2003 on my desktop.
When I move the emails from my inbox I have noticed that using Outlook 2003, the moved email is left in my inbox in "strikethrough" mode whereas on Outlook 2010 it is deleted from my inbox. I subsequently purge the marked email from my inbox in 2003.
I am able to see and access the emails in the folder I have moved them to until after midnight on Sunday when they dissappear. The emails moved via 2003 are ok and not lost.
Funnily enough when using an earlier version of the iphone mail app I remember that I could see emails in "strikethrough" mode in Outlook 2003 when they had been moved via the iPhone mail app but you don't see that now.
It feels like some sort of pointer issue to me ...... any ideas on how to stop this happening?.

This is now fixed !!!! I am not sure how though :-((
I reported the problem to Yahoo and in the process of them investigating the issue my sub-folders suddenly became invisible via my IMAP connection and then also were invisible on-line following a log out and a log in. After my initial panic, I contacted Yahoo who were able to restore my complete account. Since then, the problem has gone away.
I have been testing this for two weeks and all is working perfectly from whatever device I use to connect to my mail (IMAP or via my browser).
Phew!

ICal and Mail don't work after downgrade from Lion to Snow Leopard

Hey everyone, after an extremely awful time with with Lion (it knocked out of my audio interface AND my wireless) I downgraded back to Snow Leopard yesterday. I made a Carbon Copy of my Lion drive with all my data on an external drive (which I still have) and after wiping my local drive clean I reinstalled Snow Leopard from my disk. After it was done I chose to transfer data from another system local system (I selected everything) and an hour and a half later everything was transferred over. After doing a software update, I've found that I get big error messages with iCal, Mail, and even the App Store that say they can't open and I'm assuming that it has to do with incompatible data that got transferred from Lion. Any ideas on how to get those programs back up and running?? Thanks so much for you help!

ps. here's the error message from iCal
Dyld Error Message:

> In the device manager the two ports are listed under "other devices" and no driver is installed for them.
Indeed the USB issue seems to be related to missing drivers.
You have to install this USB 3.0 driver:
[AMD USB Driver v 2.0.7.176 Windows 7 - 64 Bit|http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=2&selSeries=178&selProduct=7534&selSh ortMod=null&language=13&selOS=30&selType=all&yearu pload=&monthupload=&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=a llMachines&search=&action=search&macId=&country=al l&selectedLanguage=13&type=all&page=3&ID=87792&OSI D=30&driverLanguage=42]
Furthermore you have to ensure that chipset driver was installed too.
The notebook supports ATI graphic chip and AMD chipset. The chipset driver is part of the ATI graphic card driver and therefore you should ensure that this driver would be installed too.

Set up mail app but it is sending ALL events from iCal to gmail with an error...

Previously, I had set up iCal to sync with gmail so I could have my calendar on my droid phone. Today I tried to set up the mail app to sync with my yahoo mail account. It works, and I can see my inbox, but for some reason when I open mail it attempts to send all of the events in iCal as alarms to Gmail. It opens hundreds of windows and slows down my computer. Each message has an error about not having an outgoing mail server selected. I've tried to delete my gmail from iCal to un- sync everything, but everytime I open mail it starts a domino effect of iCal alarm outgoing message windows. I can individually choose Yahoo! as the outgoing server, but it is incredibly slow and there are hundreds of them to go through...what do I do?

Have you checked the event log to see if there are any errors during the connector processing? The events will be logged in Application and Services Logs\Operations Manager. Look for any error messages during the time the connector was syncing. Most events
dealing with the ConfigMgr connector have a source of "Data Connectors" or "Lfx Service", but I would suggest looking through all of them from that time period. Let us know if you find anything there.

Create alerts from wiki ical?

Can I create alerts/reminders for events on the server's wiki iCal so that all user who are subscribed to that calendar will receive an alert from their desktop iCal?
Thanks,
Mila
Mac Server Snow Leopard

Bump for solution. I have 10.7 server with Wiki's providing group calendars. So far all of my attempts to get alerts to show up for everyone have fallen short.

I feel that Apple. mac. Safari is selling out available Space on every search, and, or, we consumers are being saturated with junk mail. can't block it can't stop it from happening. Help

You can use junk mail filters but setting the criteria can be a problem.
A very good tool for blocking adware is available from Thomas Reed's site http://www.thesafemac.com Thomas is a regular contributor on ASC and a good helper.
