Back from Mail to Gmail

I recently synced my gmail account with apple Mail. I've decided I like the Gmail interface better, and it works better on my android phone. So now I want to load all my downloaded e-mail back to Gmail.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Can't you use Gmail in the Mail.app along with Gmail via webmail (IMAP'd in sync)?
Anyway, if you don't want to do that. Isn't that supposed to be the beauty of IMAP (or temporarily use IMAP settings if you want to stay using POP — though dunno why you would still use POP personally) ...
If you want to move any emails from one server to another server (eg. moving email provider), add Gmail account into Mail.app as new account, if not already set-up. Create a folder under the Gmail account in Mail.app, drag all your emails into it from other service inbox. Make sure the account has synced (Window menu>Activity) —depending on how may emails you have this could take some time— then goto Gmail webmail in browser, and the folder you set-up should have all the emails in it.
You should be able to drag the emails from the new folder back into the Gmail inbox.

  • My iphone 5's screen is broken after coming back from mail in service...What happened?

    I just got my iPhone back from mail in service through applecare and the screen is shattered! I refused service because they wanted me to pay for it and so they sent it back. I originaly sent it for them to fix the microphone because it stopped working, and then i got an email saying they found accidental damage. There was a picture on the support page but it wouldnt load. So what the heck happened to my iphone because I know I didnt send it like this.

    sounds like in the mail it broke

  • Sending photo attachments from Mail to Gmail

    I've been sending photo attachments via Mail for years and haven't had trouble until recently. Now I'm getting complaints from Gmail users that the attachments come through as embedded files. I guess on the Gmail end, they don't see it listed out as an attachment, but as part of the mail body. What's going on here?
    I attach files same as I always have - by clicking on "attach", then selecting the file(s) I want to attach. I always leave "send windows friendly attachments" selected (although in an experiment, I tried sending it without clicking that, and the images came over all stretched out and shrunken in a very strange way).
    I can't think of what would be happening, but I'm assuming it's something in either the way Mail or Gmail is treating the photos - and I'd like to have them come through as attachments, rather than embed files (I'm a photographer and have heard from some of my clients that the embed is a pain - they have to "save as" right click on each image rather than just select "save attachments" or something).
    Any ideas??

    Send to these recipients using only Plain Text, and all should be well. To test choose a message you previously sent from the Sent mailbox, open, click on Message in the menubar, choose Send Again, then click on Format and choose Make Plain Text.
    Rich Text as received by those using Outlook or Outlook Express, as two examples, will see the RTF as HTML, and the attachments will appear embedded -- although they are not.

  • Is there a way to forward *all* my emails (from Mail to gmail)?

    I'm switching accounts with my ISP (Verizon, long story, not really relevant) and I can't keep the same username, I want to forward all the emails I've kept in Apple Mail to my Gmail account and use that from now on for everything.
    There are only about 150 of them in there, but I'm looking for a way to send them all without doing them by hand individually (I did command-A and selected all of them but it said it was too big (27MB, 21MB limit) to send through my server (I deleted as much as I could, I realize I could split them in half but ideally I'd do a batch of all of them but arriving at Gmail *individually*).
    Can this be done? Thanks

    Yes that's what I meant by splitting it up, but ideally I want to have each email arrive individually (without forwarding each one by hand—but I don't know if it's possible).

  • Automatic forward from Mail to GMail

    I want to use Gmail as my primary mailbox. Is there any way to ensure that incoming mail in the two accounts I have in Mail will land in Gmail? There is plenty of info and I even figured how to get Gmail to Mail--now I want to do the opposite... Thanks for your help.

    just setup a rule in Mail.app (Mail -> Preferences -> Rules) that just has a single action - forward to your GMail account - and set it to run on all incoming mail.

  • How to see my notes from Mail in Gmail?

    The Notes label in Gmail  is there in the left column of my gmail but there isn't any note in there. How can I sync my Mail account of gmail with Gmail so I can see my notes in both platforms?
    I have Lion 10.7.1

    Hi,
    In Leopard in System Preferences > Sharing With File Sharing selected go to the Advanced Button.
    Is SMB Enabled ?
    Also is the Finder's Preferences set to the Share items marked with the Red Info ?
    Lastly, on the Windows Machines is Sharing Enabled (i.e Can the PCs see each other ?) If the PCs can not see each other then it is unlikely the Macs will "see" them.
    (Just covering bases with this one - you seem to imply this but don't actually state it)

  • Can't access yahoo account. continues to bounce back from mail box asking password?

    I can not access my Yahoo account.  When I log in and go to mail box I get bounced back to "Verify Password".  Need held.

    A number of posters are reporting this problem. It could be a problem with the Yahoo server. If deleting and setting up thevaccount again is not the solution then give it a few hours.

  • Not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

    not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

    okay well they got me to take out some .plist files to see if that would help it didn't. I'm not sure what ones that they deleted for my self maybe someone here would be abel to tell you what ones to take out but didn't work the one that came close to working was this going into keychain and deleting the account(s) then reading them again.
    if you are to do this please back up first with Time Machine. You can do this with a usb drive.
    Okay so go back to where you had internet accounts and make sure mail is shut. click the - on the account your having problems with then quit system preferences.
    Okay so then press cmd and space bar at the same time then type 'keychain access' into the search then click on 'keychain access'
    once it is open go to the top of the window and put your email address that you are having problems with.
    once you have put in your full email, have a look at what comes up i deleted things in the kind colome with 'internet password' and anything with under name that had smtp.gmail.com or imap.gmail.com so it would look like this, map.gmail.com - internet password.
    right click and delete them. make sure not to touch any other files that dont say them things on them.
    Once you have done this quit keychain access and then restart the computer, once the computer is restarted go back to system preferences and internet accounts and re-add the account.
    Hope this helps. if something is not clear just ask.

  • When I use Thunderbird with Yahoo Groups, Google groups, and other email lists, I don't get a copy of my own emails back from the list (I do with Mail.app)...?

    When I use Thunderbird with Yahoo Groups, Google groups, and other email lists, I don't get a copy of my own emails back from the list. I *do* when I use Mail, so it seems like a Thunderbird thing. I'd really like to see my own emails come back to me in the conversation so that I know where my remarks fall in the discussion; it's very disorienting when you can't tell if your email has arrived at the list, or not. I can't seem to find the setting, and I've searched thru your help topics, etc., to no avail. Thanks.

    It's both gmail and mac.com email accounts, and it's all email lists -- including some privately hosted on servers, that are not Google groups, not Yahoo groups.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "saving a copy of your messages yourself" in Mail -- if I email to the lists with Mail on my laptop or iPad, I can see it on my desktop computer too, right in line with other email messages in the thread, after the list resends the message I've submitted. It's only Thunderbird that this "invisible posts" behavior happens, and it didn't use to happen this way. I used to get my emails posting right in the thread.

  • My gmail is forwarded to my "mail" on my Mac.  I now have over 14000 emails in my "all mail" in gmail on my mac.  When I try to delete them, they keep coming back.  They are not on the gmail server any longer either.

    My gmail is forwarded to my Mail on my Mac.  I now have over 14000 emails in the gmail "mailbox" because I can not delete them.  When I do, they just come back.  Frustrated ...

    This is a Gmail issue.
    It is not possible to delete something from Gmail over IMAP: Gmail doesn't let you do this.  When you "delete" something from Mail, it "deletes" it from the Mac.  However, if you show the "All Mail" folder, you will see ALL your email in Gmail.
    There are 2 solutions to this:
    1)  If you go to your Gmail web account, you can select which Gmail labels are shown over IMAP.  You should disable "All Mail" so you won't see the folder in Mail.
    2)  From the Gmail web interface, you can actually permanently delete emails.  Go ahead and delete them there and they will be gone forever from Gmail, and from Mail.
    This is not something Apple can address.  It's how Gmail implements IMAP, which is totally nonstandard.

  • Moving emails from mac mail to gmail

    This is probably a real simple one but I don't really use Mail that often...
    How do I a batch of emails to show up in my gmail account when I log in?
    A short time back I had a hotmail account where I stored a lot of emails that contained receipts for products, software, music etc that I had bought online. I had to get rid of this account as someone had managed to hack it and was sending dodgy emails from my account. At the time I used Mail to create an archive of these emails so that I could recall them later.
    I've managed to reload them back into Mail no problem but if I log out then go into my gmail account directly they don't appear in the inbox where I have put them in Mail.
    Any pointers guys?
    Thanks
    Bryan

    you can set up gmail as IMAP but you'll have to delete the current gmail POP account and set it up from scratch as IMAP. make sure you copy anything you need and which is no longer on the server from the gmail inbox and Sent mailbox to a local mailbox first. you can make a mailbox in "on my mac" section for that purpose. deleting an account deletes all mailboxes associated with it. then go to mail preferences->accounts and add a new account. in the account setup wizard uncheck the box to set it up automatically or it will recreate it as POP again, then create it as IMAP. see this link for correct settings to use.

    cannot send or receive yahoo mail or gmail from iPhone . installed ios 6 recently. tried rebooting the phone and deleting the email account and adding again but nothing works ! can someone suggest a solution?

    Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
    Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password.  On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
    See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
    Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo.

  • HT5361 How do I set up multiple gmail accounts in Mail without them sending from the wrong gmail address?

    I have Mail set up with three gmail-based email accounts. I have chronically had an issue with sending email from one address and having responses to that original email come in to the other gmail addresses. When I try to select which server to send from, all three gmail servers are never online or available at the same time - it's always just one.
    How do I get around this? My gmail-based accounts are for three distinct audiences, so I need them to function properly. I would rather be able to do this in Mail than by switching to internet-based email or using Outlook for Mac. At this point, I have had to stop using Mail and am just doing it through the internet. I have deleted all of my email accounts out of Mail, so nothing is currently set up in the application. Do I need to do anything to Mail to really wipe it clean before I start creating my accounts again?
    Thanks in advance for your input!

    After removing the account and reinstalling it. currently both send and receive are showing on my Mac Pro..  My MacBookPro s another issue ... even when I send email in that account from the MBP it "flashess" in the sent mail and then dissappears.  I modified my "smart folder" and included "sent mail" and that was of no use either.  When I first reloaded that account on the MBP this morning both sent and inbox mail showed ... but now nothing in the "sent" folder even though it is still showing on the MP and in the OWA account.
    Since the mail is clearly in the OWA account I assume this is an Apple mail issue and not a GoDaddy (server) issue ..
