Best practice for multiple email accounts

Hello
I have set up a Mac mini server with virtual hosts. So, how is the best practice to set up email accounts for each host? I want to have emails like
[email protected]
[email protected]
and
[email protected]
[email protected]
and so on.
Should I create groups for each domain, and then user "info" and "contact" in each group. Or just add a user something like "infomysite1" and have a second short name "[email protected]"
Advices are welcome
Best regards, Magnus

If user1@domain1 and user1@domain2 are the same person then you just add the other domain to Hosting-> Local Host Aliases. Same user will get all mail for both domains.
However, I'm presuming that the user1@domain1 and user1@domain2 are two separate people (i.e., same name but different mail account). If so...
See Chapter: A Mail Service Virtual Host in Apple's Mail Services Administration PDF download at http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/documentation.html
Also, see MakingVirtual_Mail_Users_in_OS_XServer.pdf from http://osx.topicdesk.com (downloads sections)
The topicdesk pdf was written for 10.5 server but I think it is still applicable to 10.6 (but follow the Apple doc just in case). However, it is good for explaining why you might want postfix-style aliases rather than the simpler Apple server-style aliases.

Best setup for multiple email accounts

I have 8 email accounts in my iphone 3G and it seems that many times it gets "hung" up on the first one (gmail) because it just says "connecting". The only way to solve it is to turn the phone off and then on again, which I'm doing several times a day. For now, I have every account set to manual fetch. Any suggestions on how to solve this issue, and the best way to setup the fetching, etc.?

Note sure what G mail is, but if it involves another isp email provider not interested, I have multiple accounts as a garbage dump for spam possibilities too much spam on one account bye bye. Usually 2 main email accounts though. btw, not a memory issue either. still plenty left. Was looking at the contacts thread and there is receiving/sending issues with email since 2.0 update anyway.

Best Practice for Multiple iTunes and One Account?

My wife and I share our account for our iPhone Applications and Songs in iTunes.
Can someone point me to a topic that covers a best practice for multiple iTunes syncing?
I travel a lot and keep my iPhone synced to my Macbook Pro while she uses the workstation at home to sync to. We keep the addresses and contacts and calendars synced through MobileMe, however, I'm trying to find the best way of pushing applications and songs I've bought over to the other PC so they're still around while I'm traveling for her to sync with.
Thoughts?

Hi Steve,
Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
Hope this Helps!!!
Sorry if i misunderstood your question.

How do I set individual sound alerts for multiple email accounts?

Here: http://www.guidingtech.com/15275/get-different-notifications-per-mail-account-io s-6/
Long and short of it, the settings can be individually changed under Notifications. Select Mail and then the account you want to change the sound to.

Best Practices for multiple authors using single project?

We are having many issues, particularly with moving, renaming, and multiple check out warnings. We have a single project with many authors and it seems like RH is not designed to work that way. There is an article in the RH devnet-archive in an article entitled "Sharing RoboHelp Project Among Multiple Authors" that says"
"At first there may be the temptation to let every author work on every file in a project. This is certainly not a best practice. Regardless of source contraol, it is always best to designate certain authors as owning certain content-related sections, folders, or topics within a project -particulary at the folder level."
This statement, and our experience seems to indicate that RH is not a true CMS as we had envisioned. What are the best practices for this scenario to avoid stepping on each others toes and having problems with source control.

I have moved this to the source control forum for the gurus there to answer.
Meantime I must admit I read that statement the same way as you first time. However, on rereading I think what the author is saying is not that what you want cannot be done, rather it is best practice to guide authors to work in discrete areas.
I will leave it to the author or another guru to give you a more complete answer.

Can i have different alert tones for Multiple email accounts?

Would like to have different alert tones for each email account. Is there a way to accomplish it?

Hi there, DawgFan1980!
I understand the purpose of the different notification sounds. The iPhone only allows 1 tone for e-mail accounts. At this time, this cannot be changed.
Thank you,

PC Convert - Configuring Mail & Best Practices for Multiple Users

I finally came to the light side last night. I bought an iMac and now I'm trying to figure out how to best set it up for use by me and my wife. Our PC is set up with a single login account and I've created multiple Outlook (not Express) profiles, one for her and one for me.
Can I do the same thing on the iMac? Am I better off creating multiple login accounts and just keeping everything separate? Being new, I would rather set things up the right way the first time and not have to undo things due to my lack of experience with iMac.
Thanks!

Hello,
Welcome to the Discussions, and welcome to Macs!
If you each wish not to see the email messages of the other, then your only real choice is to set up separate User Accounts (what you are calling login accounts). Of course using a single User Account, you can set both email accounts up in Mail, and if you keep the Inbox and Sent mailboxes expanded to show the separate Inbox (and Sent) for each account, then that works pretty well. It will not distinguish New Mail without looking in the the Inbox -- the red dot in the Dock will not separate for whom new mail has arrived. But the Address Book will be the same and shared.
The advantage of multiple User Accounts is that the entire Dock can be customized for the applications each of you like to use, if they are different.
The disadvantage will be in not sharing will include not sharing the Address Book, music and photo libraries, etc.

Issue having seperate data pushes for multiple email accounts

I've always had gmail set up through my phone. I love push and don't receive any issues using it.I recently added a 2nd, work email (exchange) to my phone. However, I'd prefer to manually check the exchange account while leaving my gmail on push. I can't seem to figure it out though. My best guess was to go:
settings>mail>fetch new data>advanced.
I have my gmail on push and my exchange on manual. I would assume the advance settings override the push and fetch settings on the primary "fetch new data" screen. However, nothing seems to be working the way I want it to. Sometimes my phone will auto-update my exchange, sometimes i'll get gmail belated, etc.
If anyone could please advise the proper settings for both the primary screen as well as the advance settings in order to have my exchange on manual and gmail on push.
Thanks

Best practice for multiple instances of the same BEX query

Hi there,
I'm wondering what's the best way to use multiple instances of the same BEX query. Let me explain what I mean:
I have a dashboard with different queries feeding different period of time such as: week to date, month to date and so on. One query for each since it is based on a user exit.
For each query I want to show different data in different sections of my dashboard. Per example: sales per directors or sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week and the like.I tried to connect a simple bar chart via a direct connection but with no success due to the multiple lines generated by the addition of the sales director, customer group, week number and so on.
My question is about the way to connect the different queries efficiently in order to show the different data while avoiding multiple useless lines.
The image above shows the query browser where, per example, for a Month to date query there will be mutiple line for each week as well as one line for each director. If, for two different components, I want to show data per week and data per director or other representation what is the best practice:
Add another instance of the same query and only put the week information and another one will only the director info?
Should I bind those to the excel file and use formulas to make final calculations?
Will there be a performance issues for adding different instances of the same query
I have 6 different queries (read 6 user exit that filters time via user exit).
Depending on the best practices there might be 4 instances for each for a total of 24 instances in the query browser.
I hope my question is clear enough, if not please do not hesitate I'll clarify as much as possible.
Regards,
Steve

Managing contacts for multiple email accounts

I am (as of yesterday) a convert from a Blackberry to the iPhone 4s (IOS 5.0.1) (32GB)
I have had iTune (10.5) on my computer for a long time, but strictl to manage an iPod for email accounts - no contacts or calendars involved. And I have never played with iCloud before.
When I purchased my iPhone at BestBuy, they copied my BB contacts to my iPhone local contacts.
FWIW, on my BB, I used BB Desktop Manager to synchronize selected Outlook contacts to my BB.
   Outlook, in turn, was used to talk to Exchange on my corporate network.
What I would like to do is a follows:
a)     Use Exchange, Gmail and Yahoo email all come to my iPhone. This is already being done.
b)     Using iTunes (or whatever) sychronize selected Outlook contacts to my iPhone
              I am assuming this is different than using the iPhone to synchronize Exchange contacts via Push. And I don't want to sync all 5K Exchange contacts with my iPhone, just the ~500 selected contacts in Outlook. All togethter there are about 1000 contacts in Outlook, 500 of which were marked with a sync category.
c)     Bonus points if I could take my Gmail and Yahoo contacts (all personal and mostly not in Outlook and certainly not in Exchange) and get them synched to my iPhone as well.
             I noted that there was an option to synch Yahoo with the phone and keep (at the risk of duplicates) local contacts. I did not see such an option for Gmail. What I did see was that there was an option to call Gmail an Exchange Account, and then synch contacts; but only if I really didn't have a Microsoft Exchange account defined, which I do.
How, if at all would iCloud fit into this picture

I recently saw news of an app to enable this, I think. The workflow was something like you open up the app, select a signature, then hit a button and it takes you to Mail and pre-pastes the signature into a new mail message. So I don't think it would work for replies.
I'm afraid I have no idea where I saw it discussed. Search the App Store?

Best practice for multiple VIs talking to same PXI

I am looking for a reccomended practice for my use case, which I feel has to be what a lot of people do/need.
I have a NI-SCOPE PXI device, but this applies to most instruments on some level. I have multiple VIs that do simple things, such as one VI that changes the horizontal settings, one VI that changes trigger settings, one VI that reads the current trace from the scope. How can I have multiple VIs talk to the same instrument, some of them might even be called at the same time.
Some more specifics about my use case is that I am calling these VIs from a web service, and the trace VI is called very frequently and streamed to the user (via the web service).
I was thinking of implementing a VI that would give me the VISA connection for the instrument and a semephore. I would then have the VI doing the work aquire the semephore, make the instrument calls and then release the semephore. Are there better or different ways? Maybe something I am over looking with the semephore implementation?

Typically for this sort of thing I would have a device handler VI which contains your VIs for talking to the instrument. This VI acts like a 'server' and does your device communications and then you can send commands to the device handler VI (e.g. via a queue/event) and it will return the result.
I would implement this as a state machine (normally using queues) - states for initialising the device, a state for each action you want to perform and a close/shutdown state when your application finishes.

Best practices for multiple developers?

I am currently working on a fairly large application. At this
time, I have been the only developer on it, so it hasn't been a
problem in keeping all of my files up to date or anything. However,
I know in the future some new blood will be brought in to assist
me. To this end, I'm looking for suggestions on the best ways to
set up the project for multiple developers, especially in terms of
using VSS.
So far, I have the main HTML, JS, and FLA/SWF files located
on a web server - easy enough to create a project in Flash and
synch up with VSS. But what about the supporting .as files? The
help files seem pretty straight-forward on this kind of thing, but
I am curious about other people's experiences.
Any suggestions for me? Thanks!

HI,
You can install it on one common desktop, for example you can use citrix program neighborhood. you can install a common desktop in citrix program neighborhood and every time you need to apply some patches you can apply over there. so that you dont need to install it on each and every users desktop. so who ever needs business objects client tools they will be accessing through citrix program neighborhood.
I hope its clear.
Thanks,
SK.

Can I set up alerts for multiple email accounts? (...

I have two hotmail accounts set up on my Nokia E71.
For some reason I only get alerts for the second account I added.
I have gone through every setting/preferance menu I can think of to see if there's a difference but can find none.
Can anyone think of what I'm missing? If anything, I would have expected an alert for the original email.
I want to make sure I am getting the maximum benefit and use out of this phone and email alerts would be great (I phoned my carrier's tech support and they said the E71 has NO alerts for any mails so that was clearly incorrect)

Are you using the built-in email client?
If you are, double check the "New Email Alerts" option. This is under <Settings> -> <E-mail> -> <choose mailbox> -> <User Settings> -> <New Email Alerts>

IOS Signature Settings for Multiple Email Accounts causes crashes and errors

Hello Everyone,
I've been having troubles with iOS email signature for severals years from iOS 4 (?) through iOS 7 on everything ranging from an iPad2, iPad3, IPad Air, and various iPhones. I'm currently on an iPad Air 128GB WiFi running iOS 7.1.2.
I have about 12 email accounts. I have it set to a unique signature per account. Whenever I try to scroll the list of signatures in the settings app, it will often have greyed out areas where a signature is supposed to be (especially after adding a new account). Other accounts will blur together and overlap each other. Very often the whole settings app crashes. Once the crashes start, they happen more frequently and you basically have to Power Off and Restart the iPad to get it back to a somewhat stable state.
I've come to accept that the Mail Signatures is broken and not stable. But maybe I'm just doing it wrong. So, I ask you great and wonderful Apple Community: Any suggestions? Or just keep on like I've been doing for the last several years?
Thank you!
Paul Holje

this crash has been present since ios6 (apparently). it's apparently caused by a buffer overflow (i've not yet examined the crash files i've been generating) because the engineers never tested use cases such as yours or mine.
a painful workaround is to disable all your email accounts but one, edit its signature, then disable it, and enable the next one, and so on. ios saves the correct signature for each account and the settings app crash does not occur.
hope this helps
