Apple Mail Issues With Multiple Email Accounts

Using Apple Mai 5.3 and have three e-mail accounts.
They all can receive and send email. However, on one account, it always sends out but will show up in inboxes from one of my other email addresses.
Everything looks normal in preferences. Also, when I prepare a new email, I will have the correct email selected from the drop-down menu... but when I hit, send it'll show up in inboxes as being sent from another one of my emails.
Very strange.... any thoughts?

Make absolutely sure that your email addresses and configuration are correct. In nearly every case I've encountered, this is the problem.
If you've confirmed this, make sure you're configured properly on your webmail account, if you have one. Webmail is something like ATT, the source of your internet.
If you're still flummoxed, play hardball. Make sure you have all your current account info and passwords, and delete them in Mail/Preferences/Accounts. Then, reenter them one by one until they're perfect. This makes sure your settings are consistent and correct.

  • Creating default with multiple email accounts

    I am a new user. I have an old iphone updated to 2.1. I have multiple email accounts and I want to set one as the default. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks for your help. May your candidate win (as long as it begins with O)

    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Under the Mail section at Default Account, select the account that you want as the default.
    The following is provided underneath.
    +Messages created outside of Mail will be sent from the default account.+
    As an example, the default account will be used when selecting a photo to be emailed.
    If you have account A selected as your default account and select new message when accessing a mailbox for account B, account B will be the account the message is sent by.

  • Major Apple Mail Issues with GoDaddy

    I am having MAJOR ONGOING issues wiht Apple Mail that is negatively impacting my ability to work. It's gotten to the point of complete frustration and just considering going back to a PC, it's THAT horrible.
    1) I do not regularly receive emails from 2 of my 4 GoDaddy accounts in Apple Mail. Sometimes emails will appear if I close Apple Mail, and then reopen. Sometimes they never appear in Apple Mail. Sometimes they appear randomly - and sometimes they again disappear. Everything is configured correctly (and the same as the functioning GoDaddy accounts) so I know it is not the setup. I NEED TO RECEIVE MY MAIL!
    2) I can't move/delete/change anything from the same GoDaddy affected account inboxes in Apple Mail. I file the emails into folders on my Mac, and as soon as I click on another message, they reappear in the inbox. Same if I delete them. I've rebooted, tried a million different settings, delete the account all together and readded, and nothing works. So I have a jumped inbox of several hundred messages, and no matter how many times I file/organize/move/delete emails, they all just go *poof* back into the Inbox. What gives?!
    I am so frustrated and my inability to work is more than a small problem at this point. I work in digital marketing, so to say that I need a functioning computer with a functioning email program is an understatement. This Macbook Pro cost over $3k and is less than a year old...funny how for that price I'd just expect it to work.....
    I've read through multiple threads on this issue, and tried a million and one fixes, all to no avail. Reboot. Recreate email account. Change password. Update account settings. Test different account settings. Tried with and without SSL. Sometimes it works for a few minutes or if I'm really super lucky, a few hours...but always goes back to these issues.
    Is there any resolution in site?
    My Computer:
    Macbook Pro Retina 15" Early 2013
    OS X 10.9.2
    Mail 7.2

    Answer all of these accordingly.
    Have you tried deleting and adding the accounts back one at a time?
      Yes, repeatedly. Same thing happens
    What message protocol goes GoDaddy support? If you are using POP, have you tried IMAP?
    Tried both POP and IMAP. IMAP works better. As mentioned in OP, I have multple GoDaddy accounts. All the rest work. 2 are having these issues. ALL GoDaddy accounts have identical configuration, so I know they are properly set up.
    What does GoDaddy say about mail client configuration?
    See above reply.
    Have you tried using webmail?
    Yes, works fine. All messages are there. Issues is not with GoDaddy, but with Mac.
    Have you tried forwarding your GoDaddy email to another email acccound like iCloud?
      Yes, this also works fine, however I need my work signatures for my different clients/programs hence the separate accounts in Apple Mail. Again the issues is with the Mac.
    1. thanks.
    2. the Mac is the issue
    3. already done

  • Why can't I choose Apple Mail from Lightroom 4 Email Account Manager

    I know that the built-in emailer in Lightroom is pretty half-baked but I'm having trouble even getting limited functionality out of it. While many people report you can send an email and leave the "From:" menu blank and that will take you to Apple Mail if you select it from the Email Account Manager. But I never get that option. All of my options are webmail: Gmail, Hotmail, AOL, Other... No matter what I do Apple Mail is never an option. Truth be told, what I'd really like is to find a way to automatically attach the image to a Gmail webmail session in Safari or Chrome so I could have use of my address book but that seems like a pipe dream. I'll settle for Apple Mail. Can anyone help?
    Secondly, one of the other problems I have with the built in emailer is that Groups in the address book don't work at all for me. I've taken the time to input a bunch of addresses and then add them to a group. But I can find no conceivable way to automatically put that group in the To: field. It never comes up on autofill, can't drag it, nothing. I just have to manually type the addresses.
    Something must be wrong. But what???
    Thanks.

    Apple Mail only appears if it's your default email client on the computer.  For example, I have my default set to Postbox so Apple Mail never appears.  It would appear in this pop-up:
    If you do want to get through to a webmail session, you might be interested in this instead: http://www.photographers-toolbox.com/products/lrgmail.php
    I can reproduce the issue with the groups and I'll get that bugged, thanks.  (There should be a checkmark in that Address Book dialog to allow you to check the whole group.

  • Issues with an email account

    I have successfully set up email accounts on iPhones and iPad on Exchange and Gmail servers.
    However, I am frustrated not being able to send messages from a POP account. I am able to receive messages, but when I send a meesage, I get the response: "Cannot send mail. The recipient xxx.com was rejected by the server". This happens for every outgoing email address I try. I have had detailed discussions with the service provider on Outgoing server settings but they are stumped as well. Tried Outgoing servers as "mail.xxx.com" or "smtp.xxx.com" and even a specific IP address that the web server hosting call centre gave me. Nothing works - and I have tried it on iPhone5s, 4s, 3 and iPad. Every time, I get the same error; so I am not able to send any emails from any Apple device from this account. I even tried setting it up as an IMAP account, but I get the same issue i.e. able to recveive emails, but cannot send any email.
    However, I am able to send/receive from my other Exchange and Gmail accounts using the same Apple devices. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Check the parameters in your email account against what is recommended by your email provider.
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > account
    Have you contacted the support contact at your email provider?

  • Mail hang with multiple pop accounts and invalid new mail counter

    All
    More than a year ago, I migrated all email accounts from Outlook to Apple Mail using O2M application. I have 2 pop accounts and gmail account. Everything worked fine for a few month but then Mail started to hang during message receiving. It did so very often (4/5 times). When it does, nothing will revive it except a "force quit".
    I tried to fetch email from each account individually, that worked well every time. After I was sure that it has to do with getting new mail simultaneously, I tried everything to fix it. I tried to reconstruct all the mail boxes, I tried using only 2 boxes with all combinations (1 pop 1 gmail, 2 pop, etc) but nothing worked.
    I even tried to export all my mail boxes, then delete everything from Mail then reimport them with no luck.
    In addition, a couple of months later, my "Inbox" new mail counter started to sometimes displaying the wrong new mail count. It displays 2-4 new messages while there is none. In order to be sure, I created a smart mail box to have only new mail and it had none. By simply switching to any other folder then returning back to Inbox solves the problem.
    Can any one help?

  • Problem using Win 8.1 Mail app with corporate email account

    I have a client where most of the PCs are running Windows 8.1 with Office 2013 installed and an on-premise Exchange 2013 server.
    Even though they've been using Office 2013, now that they have Win 8.1 the staff now like to use the included Mail app for all their email as they say they get better notifications with it and some other "goodies" that Office 2013 doesn't provide.
    It's been working okay for them as I haven't heard of any problems. Until now. Their domain passwords are expiring and when they change the domain password they have no problem with the PC itself and domain access and Outlook 2013 still works fine.
    But now they're getting errors trying to continue to connect the Mail app to Exchange 2013. They keep getting a popup asking for credentials, their domain accounts get locked out (imagine that) after too many wrong logins I presume by the Windows 8.1 apps,
    and when they do get the Mail app connected they see an error in the lower right corner of the window about a problem with the certificate. It says something about the name of I think the server not matching the certificate.
    The cert is from GoDaddy and I know the names involved with the cert are correct. But that's the minor issue.
    The main issue is with getting the 8.1 apps, particularly the Mail app, to recognize the updated domain password.
    I have a Windows 8.1 VM setup and on the domain but when I try to configure it to connect to the Exchange server I get the error "Unable to connect. Ensure the information you've entered is correct."
    It's pretty obvious what is supposed to go in each field so I'm sure I'm filling it out correctly. But because of this I can't use this test VM to work on the problem.
    If anyone has an idea of how to deal with the Windows 8.1 Mail app and Exchange and changing the user domain password, I'd be appreciative of the help.
    Jonathan

    Hi,
    Thanks for your feedback.
    With 8.1, you can now use the Mail app without having to have a Microsoft account.
    A Microsoft account is an email address and password that you use to sign in to Windows. It's free and easy to set up, and you can do so with any email address you choose, or get a new email address. (For example, you can use an Outlook.com, Gmail, or Yahoo!
    address for your Microsoft account.)
    However, you must sign with an email address.
    Any way, if you have any other problem, welcome to contact us.

    That is one way you can sign into Windows but not required. As I stated earlier, these PCs are domain joined and that's how they login to them. As for the Mail app, 8.1 means an MS account isn't required anymore.

  • Strange issues with multiple Exchange accounts with iOS4

    Strange thing, I have
    - one corporate account with Exchange
    - one gmail account with traditionnal setup from iPhone
    - other imap email accounts.
    Since iOS4 came out, I decided to move Gmail to Active Sync mode. It worked, I had issues sending emails, even when connectivity was ok. I decided to delete all accounts and start from scratch so
    - I began with Gmail: setup with Exchange/Active Sync
    - I sent an email from Gmail to my corporate account (I didn't have it anymore on the iPhone)
    Results:
    - First the sent email gave me an error, I went to the outbox, clicked on resend, it worked after 2 retries
    - Surprise: the mail sent from my gmail account to the corporate account was in my corporate inbox...but also in my gmail!

    Hi,
    You can use the following cmdlet to repair this problematic mailbox and check the result.
    New-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox xxx -CorruptionType FolderView
    If the issue persists, you can move this problematic mailbox to another mailbox database and verify the result.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.

  • Limit or issues with adding email account to iphone 4 AND Macbook Pro

    Is there a limit to email accounts on iphone 4... I tried to add a 4th email account to iphone 4 AND to my email program on MacBook Pro.  It worked for a couple days and not both say user name or pass is incorrect.  I CAN check email from gmail.com STRANGE! :/  Annoyed
    Thanks for info!
    ~Joy

    think all do that same deal when changing network if you're driving
    it's not the speakers it's the wire connecting the device with the speakers
    it will act as a neutral antenna and receive the harmonics from the gsm signals when they get a sms or change network and that will play in the speakers
    maybe you could look into a very very very shielded cable 3.5mm cable which would be protected from those harmonics or maybe you should look into external speakers which use bluetooth a2dp profile

  • 8830 with multiple email accounts

    Does anyone know if the 8830 is suppose to let you know which address an email has come into?  I used to have a Curve and then went to the World Edition.  I know for a fact that one of them let you know with a red asterisk next to the appropriate icon to let you know which account the email was received in.  Right now the only area the asterisk is showing up in is the main message center.  I thought for sure the World had the same feature.  Thanks for your help.

    All the BlackBerry devices have the red star in the main mail message and the specific mail account when you received a new mail.
    If your device doesn't have, follow this please
    With the phone turn on, take out the battery for 30 seconds and install the battery again, let me know if this solve your problem, thanks. 
    If I help you with any inquire, thank you for click kudos in my post.

  • Outlook/ Exchange 2010 Issue using multiple email accounts

    I have some users with at least 2 additional mailboxes, and if the user need to reply an email that is in the inbox of the additional mailbox, by default the smtp that shows in the from field is from the additional mailbox. Then
    the user must change the email address to yours every times, because he always need that the email address was yours.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Alejandro,

  • Issue with multiple iBook accounts and iTunes

    My daughter and each have a user account on her iBook (mine is the Administrator). I am able to log onto iTunes and access the iTunes Store; however, if she is logged on, she cannot access the store. We went to an Apple Store today and could not get this figured out. Has anyone else had this issue, and if you did, how did you resolve it?
    Thanks.
