Can I create a newsgroup account in Mail?

Hello. I've been digging around and for the life of me, cannot figure out how to create a newsgroup account in Mail. Is that possible? How do I do it? I'm using a different email program but want to use Mail since it integrates so well with iPhoto and Address Book. Thanks for your help!

Hello Mario.
Mail is just a standard POP & IMAP mail client. It doesn’t have any newsgroup capabilities at all. You’ll have to use something else for that (e.g. Thunderbird).

  • HT204053 how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

    Thanks...  I appreciate the reply.  Since I wrote the previous email, I actually went and changed my apple id (the main id) and the documentation I looked at said iCloud will set mail up automatically(?)...  I had it working before. 
    Also, I tried to manually set up the ID via the Mail Accounts screen(s) and I can't figure out what my server information is...  Pop or Imap?  What's the outgoing server and the incoming server?
    I typically have never had problems setting up mail accounts (in apple mail) with no problem.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for responding and answering my question. If we decided to use my wife's icloud account as our primary, is there a way to "not sync" the incoming email with her iphone and ipad? That would simplify things greatly because she doesn't read any of her email on her iphone or ipad.
    If you don't want to sync the iCloud email account on her devices, all you would need to do is go to Settings>iCloud on her devices and turn Mail off.  This would remove the email account from her devices but would leave any other iCloud syncing services that you want to use with the account in place.

  • Can't add a new account to mail

    Hello all,
    Hope to get some help with this annoying and frustrating situation.
    I need to create a gmail account in mail v4.5 because I'll be moving from my current location and prefer not to have to access gamil through safari.
    I am prevented to get the new account to be online, no matter how many times I try to do this.
    First there was an issue with mail not being able to verify gmail's certificate; I thought I overcame this by clickung on view certificate aan accepting it.
    Then, all gmail account settings settings were input following gamil help pages; whether I set the account to be an IMAP (as recommended by gmail) or a POP account, mail could not get the account online: it keeps being offline.
    I deleted the account just created and created a new one with the same result.
    Mail gives me this alert: Logging in to the Gmail IMAP server “imap.gmail.com” failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click Continue. If the information isn’t correct, you cannot receive messages.
    Both user name and password are correct, but useless. Nevertheless, I click on "continue" and the result is the same.
    There is no problem with network; I can get online with safari, and firefox.
    I just don't know what to do, and no help from google is possible, at least not for this issue; help for gmail through a browser is plentiful though, but trying to ask something that is not on the menu as set by google is totally impossible.
    Does anyone have a solution?
    I'll be very thankful for any help I can get.
    Regards

    That is the only one; there are no incoming and no outgoing ports to be able to set a number into a box: I don't see SMTP ports, nor SMTP-SSL ports.
    Yes, you do. But you can't access them until after you first setup the account; then you get to select Mail's Preferences->Accounts->Account Information tab and use the 'Server Settings…' button to set those options. Here's a screen shot of that window:
    It is sort of a vicious circle as I cannot actually setup the account completely. Nevertheless, I insisted and these are screenshots of what mail shows:
    Account information is the same as shown on my previous response screenshots: POP
    As you can see, I used the default ports, but the final result was exactly the same: gmail does not go online.
    (BTW, I don't know why 2 gmail accounts are shown when there is only one I want to activate: I keep deleting those which do not work.)
    When I try to send a message using gmail, I get the "Enter password for account...", I check "Remember this password in my keychain", click OK, and get the same again and agin; gmail stays offline.
    This I read on Mail Help:
    If the mail server rejects your user name and password
    There can be several reasons why your user name and password aren’t accepted by a mail server.
    Try these solutions:
    Make sure you’re typing your mail account password, and not your Mac OS X user account password or email service provider password (if these passwords are different).
    Passwords are case-sensitive. Make sure you’re entering uppercase and lowercase characters where needed.
    Verify your account name and password in Mail preferences (choose Mail > Preferences and click Accounts). If your email service provider offers web mail (email access via a web browser), try using your account name and password to access web mail. If your account name and password look correct but you can’t access web mail using them, or you don’t have web mail, contact your provider to confirm the information.
    I can access gmail from a browser with the same password I use in trying to set up gmail on mail, so this is not the problem.
    What about the cerrtificate whose identity mail cannot verify?
    Could it possibly be related to a problem with the OS in my computer?
    Possibly, but without knowing what those problems were, I couldn't say with any degree of accuracy.
    computer boot time too long: over 50 seconds for the apple logo to show up, then another 10 seconds for the wheel to spin; total time about 1 minute 50 seconds; this doesn't happen when booting from an external FW HD
    sleep does not start when i click it; must click up to 3 times for the computer to go to sleep
    mail notifications, and other default actions set by me —such as ignore when a blank CD is inserted— do not respond
    beach ball spin in many applications, sometimes even in Finder; I've installed more memory a bout a week ago to a total of 8GB but beachball still happens as if nothing had changed
    fonts settings keep changing; followed Kurt Lang's recommendations for keeping fonts to the minimum OS X requires, plus some that I want to use; I get them all back on
    some folders disappeared
    I get "recovered file folders" after starting a new session
    these conditions happen with my account and with a guest account
    an over 50GB folder that I had to copy from the internal to the external FW HD on one occasion (because a back up of the internal HD would have replicated the problems on the external) gave me a totally empty folder after about one hour spent "copying" nothing at all.
    I removed Mail and all its associated files, and reinstalled it from the install DVD.
    Don't do that. It will not solve any problem, but it will take lots of time.
    OK, in the future.
    I don't have any further information you may need.
    Again, thank you so much.

  • Can't create a sync account

    Firefox sync was not working correctly on my laptop so I decided to delete my old account and start fresh, after trying everything I could think of to fix the problem. However, now I can't create a new account, be it with my old e-mail address or a new one. I keep getting 'Unknown Error' when trying to create a new sync account.

    I'm not sure that my current profile has anything to do with it--have just tried creating a new account on a desktop that was not connected to my previous sync account.

  • Can't create new email account.

    I can't create new emails account because when I go to Setting and click in Mail,Contacts ,calender, it goes back to home, intead of open the options. Any advice? Thanks
    Julio

    Double tab the home button and when the application button shows up hold the settings icon until you see a red dot in the corner and hit that.
    If that dosent work then try restarting the device. Hold the lock button (top right of iPad) until slide to power off appears then hit the same button to get it back on.
    To actually make an email account you have to go to the providers web page, you can't create one in settings

  • Can't create an ePrint account

    i can't create an eprint account with my Laserjet Pro 200 m251nw.  When I go to create an account, it showsthat both the email and passworddo not match.  I am operating Windows 7 Home Premium.   I have tried both my personal e-mail and the printer e-mail addresses.  The HP ePrint mobile printing page says to get started to to eprintcenter.com, sign up and enter your printer code.  How can I get this accomplished?

    Hi,
    Do you receive a message which has something to do with Snapfish ? Other users including myslef use a different email address to create ePrint account. Problem solved.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS4002 Can't create any alias in iCloud mail, see message "Cannot save alias.

    Can't create any alias in iCloud mail, see message "Cannot save alias. This alias cannot be saved at this time". I tried different variations at different dates (I thought this is temporary issue) but this not helped me. Perhaps some of you have resolved this issue and can tell me how I can do it?

    Do you see in account settings two email addresses - with "@me.com" and "@icloud.com"? Or only "@me.com"? In second case just wait - your account will be updated in some time. I've waiting from summer and my account was updated in one day as soon as I've start this discussion   When your account will be updated - you will see in preferences two addresses, with "@me.com" and with "@icloud.com".

  • I have only 1 ipad device, can I create 2 icloud accounts for the same ipad?

    I have only 1 ipad device, can I create 2 icloud accounts for the same ipad?

    Of course.
    To create the first iCloud account, open Settings > iCloud, type your Apple ID and follow the steps to set up iCloud.
    Then, to add a second iCloud account, open Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account > iCloud, type the second Apple ID and set up iCloud for this Apple ID.
    Note that one iCloud account will work as the primary account and the other one as the secondary account. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020

  • Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    You need an iTunes card.
    You can setup an account without a credit card if that helps.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534
    I found this in the iTunes help menu.
    Redeem an iTunes allowance, gift certificate, or Gift Card
    If you received an iTunes Store allowance, gift certificate, iTunes Gift Card, or promotional code, you can use it to buy songs, videos, or audiobooks from the iTunes Store.
    You need to set up an Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store before you can redeem anything in the iTunes Store. You don’t need to enter credit card information to redeem only the amount of a gift certificate or card.
    Before redeeming anything, make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store (choose Store > Sign In, or select Sign In from the navigation bar at the top of the iTunes Store window):
    I don't see any mention of App Store cards.

    You can only create an iCloud account on a device with iOS 5, or a Mac with OS X Lion.
    The whole point of iCloud is to sync your iOS devices with your computer...
