Hi Carlo,
My Mail seems to work now.
I should have done a screen capture to show you something.
When I was about to send the message in Mail, a notice came up:
It had 2 mail accounts:
1. Mail
2. my new e-mail address
I think I pressed  Mail (if I remember).
However, when I just sent another test message, there was no window warning coming up.
Also, the "new Mail account" has nothing in it like the one that I deleted.
The one that I deleted had lots of material (messsage, sent message, saved messages etc...) but nothing critical.
I can live with that.
The critical point will be when I go to a site and when I want to send a messafge, my Apple Mail account window opens.
So far, your solution has worked even if the second part of your instructions could not be followed.
Thanks again,
Stacey

  • Applescript Apple Mail - message hanging around, please help!

    I have the following applescript which I am sending mail messages with in Apple Mail. 10.7.2
    tell application "Mail"
      activate
              set DMF to default message format
              set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"emailSubject", visible:true}
              tell newMessage
                        set visible to false
      make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:"[email protected]"}
                        set html content to "content"
              end tell
      send newMessage
      save newMessage
              set default message format to DMF
    end tell
    The problem is that once the message sends, it hangs around invisibly. How I know? When I close my message viewer in Mail or try to quit mail, the message window of the message I send with Applescript is still there and I have to manually close the window. It is in my sent items but the window does not close in Mail once it is sent? This happens on multiple computers but only in Lion 10.7? Any suggestions?

    Well, the most obvious solution is to not make it visible in the first place:
              set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties{subject:"emailSubject", visible:false}
    There's no need to see a message if you're automating its creation and delivery, so just set visible to false and you're set.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

    And what happened when you tried? And please don't say it didn't work, we know that. Describe what happens when you "try" to change the password. Are the settings greyed out and therefore, you can't change anything? Can you send emails? You said you can't "get" emails so i interpret that to mean that you can't receive them.
    Did you try quitting the settings app, reboot theniPad and then "try" again to see if that will allow you to change the setting?
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the settings icon. Tap the home button twice,
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    You don't have Restrictions set that would prevent you from changing the password in Settings>General>Restrictions>Allow Chamges>Accounts.

    Another person who doesn't understand how to set CLASSPATH.
    Move those JARs into the same directory as your SendMailBean.java and do it like this:
    javac -classpath .;mail.jar;activation.jar -d . *.java
    java -classpath .;mail.jar;activation.jar SendMailBeanRead how to set CLASSPATH properly:

    I need for business purpose to have a separate font for my email  font and my signature. But everytime Apple Mail change my signature font according to the body font.
    What can I do? (I didn't check the box with "use my default font")
    thx

    I sign the pdf with a digital signature which includes a picture of my written signature.  When I attach it to Apple mail or upload to mobileme, the signiture disappears.  My clients see nothing.  When I go back to the email in the sent box and open the pdf in the email there is no signature.  When I open the original pdf the signature is there
    This problem does not exist in outlook 2011, but would have liked to use mail as outlook does not support caldev

    Hello, BaraaBa. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This sounds like your Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store.  Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
    Use your Apple ID with the iTunes Store
    Open the latest version of iTunes.
    Choose Store > Sign In.
    Enter your Apple ID and password and click Sign In.
    Click Review when asked to review your information.
    Enter your billing information.
    Click Continue after you enter your credit card and billing information. You can remove or edit your credit card information at any time. Learn more about updating your iTunes Store account information.

    how to login apple id without payment detail.please help me out

    Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you are being prompted to review the account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then you will either have to enter card details (you should be able to remove it after entering it), or create a new account (and follow the instructions on the above link when creating it).
