Apple Mail - sending multiple emails from drafts folder

Hi all,
So If I save few emails in drafts - then later want to send tham at the same time - I can go to drafts and highlight them and choose messages > send
but the problem is each opens up and says:
cannot send message
This message could not be sent because your account does not have a preferred outgoing mail server. Select an outgoing mail server from the list below.
- however - in accounts I do have a smtp chosen and use only this server is checked.... (and single emails work fine)
- Q: so I want to be able to just highlight the several mail and send them all at once - without the extra dialogs......
How do I fix this?

Thanks Old Toad,
i think I had done that....
1 - So I just made 2 test emails from =  my main account and saved each in drafts - each says from = [email protected] as they all do and work corretly when sent...
2 - then i go to drafts and highlight the 2 I just made - and choose menu - messages > send
then it says are you sure...
then it has this error for each one
Maybe you can try this also to see if you have the same issue?

  • Apple Mail puts a email in "DRAFTS" after I send it?

    Whenever I send a email thru Apple Mail using my Gmail account, it will put the email in the DRAFTS folder. How do I keep this from happening?
    I have 3 email accounts that I use in Apple Mail and the Gmail one is the only one that does this.

    Well if you have no draft mailbox list in the Mailbox folder, then it's obvious that it's not creating one for that account or any other, meaning it's putting the drafts in the IMAP draft folder. You may have some corruption within the Mail folder or preferences.
    Try this out:
    Select the draft folder under that gmail account in the sidebar, then go to Mailboxes in the menu and select Use This Mailbox for: drafts. That should move the draft folder from the gmail folder to Mail's main draft mailbox.
    Open Mail's preferences and check to see that the box to store messages on the server is checked.
    Create and save a test draft message. Verify that it's also saved at the gmail website (should also appear in the draft folder under gmail account at sidebar bottem). Once that's done, go back into Mail's preferences and uncheck to store drafts on the server. That should move the draft mailbox back under the gmail folder. Save the changes.
    Quit and restart Mail and verify Mail's preferences remain unchecked for storing drafts on the server.
    Create a new message and save as draft. Verify that it is not saved to the gmail draft folder in the sidebar bottem or gmail website.
    If all's OK from there, delete the test drafts you created. Once again highlight the Inbox and quit Mail. Restart Mail and the draft folder should not appear in the sidebar. It will still appear on the toolbar if you have it showing (to show, select Show Toolbar in Mail's menu under View).
    Create a test message and send. See if that works. Hopefully, it will fix whatever preference files is stuck.

  • Apple Mail sending multiple copies of email. What's the cure?, Apple Mail sending multiple copies of email. What's the cure?, Apple Mail sending multiple copies of email. What's the cure?

    Recently, my Apple Mail has been sending from two to six copies of email, timed to the same minute. I've taken to using Thunderbied (which I don't prefer) to avoid it. My theory is that if I can reload Lion it might cure it, but since Lion only comes as a download, I don't know how.
    I've had MacKeeper in place since before the problem, but updating it became impossible. I emailed that program and was advised to trash it, do a cold reboot and then download it again. I did, and it hasn't helped.
    Any suggestions?

    MacKeeper is so bad, it has earnt the distinction of a User Tip of it's own
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3036
    After dragging the app to the trash, you will need to clean up using something like  AppTrap, AppZapper, AppCleaner etc. The official MacKeeper uninistaller leaves advert popups still appearing on your computer.

  • Apple Mail sends out emails when turned on. Adress book creates groups of email addresses

    I have had this issue with my address book for a while in that it creates new entries with just an email address as the actual entry and then hundreds of other email addresses from address book as this entry's additional email addresses.
    At the same time I had an issue with Apple Mail that I thought was unrelated but now I am not that sure anymore. When I turn Apple Mail on, it sends out emails that look like an endless chain of responses (spam) to the same email that advertises  all kinds of stuff.
    When I first noticed the issue I turned Mail off (a year ago). After updating to Lion I tried to use mail again but had the same issue and have not been using it since. But I appear to still find new entries in my address book all the time.
    I ran some software (ClamX) but wasn't able to find any malware so far. I can't imagine someone hacking into my machine and doing all this my hand. For what?
    So I am wondering whether anyone has had similar symptoms on their Mac?

    Do you recognize the new entries in Address Book, or the contents of the messages?

  • Mail Sender Adapter - read from public folder.

    Hello Experts.
    I have a scenario, where I need to read an incoming mail from a public folder, and after mapping the attachment (which is a csv) I need to put the result as a file in a shared folder.
    right now the problem is, I am not sure how to access the public folder.
    should I use one of the exchange users, and try to access the public folder?
    what should I be writing in the URL parameter in the mail sender adapter ? (imap://server/???/public folder ?)
    Also - in case I will want to switch the location of the mail to a private foler inside of the user mailbox - what is the URL parameter in that case?
    Anyone ever did something like this and can help?
    Thanks,
    Imanuel Rahamim.

    Hi Imanuel,
    do u mean u want to pick the mail which contains an attachement from a specified folder instead of inbox?
    u can configure the URL like imap://host:port/path/PublicFolder.
    after PI received the mail. we can use PayloadSwapBean to get the attachement payload and do following message mapping.
    ur question: Also - in case I will want to switch the location of the mail to a private foler inside of the user mailbox - what is the URL parameter in that case?
    do u mean u want to pick the mail from a specified mail account? if like this, create an user for the interface only. then configure the UserName/Password in the channel.
    Regards,

  • TS3276 Why does my mail send an email from a different account form the one selected?

    Hi,
    I have several email accounts configured in my mail app.
    For no reason it started sending email from one of my accounts with another email address, so when people reply to my email (from a particular account) it goes to another inbox and I sometimes miss it.
    Any tips?

    In Mail>Preferences>Accounts>you can set Each Mail account to "Use Only This Server" located at the lower right of the window below, which you specify once.  Then the Mail app will not have a choice of server available to pull those shenanigans.
    Hope this helps

  • Yahoo Mail sending multiple emails

    I've had it for the last few days. Today I sent quite a few emails out .....40 was sent with one and 15 with another and so on.I'm fuming but most of all it's so embarrassing! I've been trying to get through to Sky....40 mins and counting... 

    Hi all,  I am having the same issue and have been for the past couple of days, it seems to be ok if I compose an email from scratch but replying to an email sent to me is where I have the multiple email sending issue. Agree it is also very annoying and wish Sky would get it sorted quickly. As I was looking through this website a pop up appeared and asked me to do a survey about the Sky Community, which I did and told them what I thought about this issue and their inability to deal with it - or even respond to the posts on this forum!!! Not sure how else to complain without an email address or holding on the phone for ages, so did it through this survey!!   

  • Apple Mail sends duplicate emails everytime!

  • Send Multiple emails from a form using CF

    Is it possible to build a form so that when submit is clicked an email gets sent to two preselected email address and to a third email address that the user has selected from a drop down using CF?
    We are not allowed to use PHP and I'm fairly new to CF.
    Thank you

    Thanks for the input. The part that is confusing for me is since this is in a form, the user types in his/her name, address, phone number... and then they come to a textbox and he/she needs to type in his/her email address and the next text box we need the bosses email address. After those are filled in the user comes to a dropdown box where they are asked to select one of a dozen branch locations they belong to. Say they select the San Antonio branch. The value for San Antonio equals an email address say [email protected] So the real question is/ should have been ...How would I create the code using CF so that once the "Submit" button is click, an email is sent, (contaning the input info from the form) to the users,the users bosses email address and to the branch the user selected from the dropdown. I can come close to making it work using ASP but I'm  trying to push CF here and like I said I'm fairly new to CF.
    Thanks again.

    why is it that when i send emails duplications were created? the recepient says he receives multiple emails from me...

    It is a bug. Try quitting Mail and then reopen it.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • I have multiple email accounts in my iPhone. Before the 6.0 update... I could select what account to send from. Now it's a default. Do I have to go change the email default everytime I want to send an email from a different account?

    I have multiple email accounts in my iPhone 4. Before the 6.0 update... I could select what account to send from each time. Now it's a default. Do I have to go change the email default setting everytime I want to send an email from a different account?

    In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account.  The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
    Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

  • When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box doesn't show up.  Whats going on?

    When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box option doesn't show up.  The only options are facebook, message,   It was there last evening and I used it.  Whats going on?

    There is a limit on the number of photos that you can send in one email from the photos app, but I thought it was five. In any event, you know that you can send mutiple photos from the mail app itself and you can send more than 5.
    When you are typing an email - Tap and hold down in the body of the message area and select "Insert Photo or Video" from the black pop up options bar. Select the photos that you want to include from the photos app window that appears. Then hit return on the keyboard and start the process all over again.
    You can insert photos, type text, enter more photos .... any way that you would like to do it.
