Can mail get messages off my .edu account?

I'd like to save all of my old emails, but I really don't want to have to forward all of my messages from my .edu account to my gmail account, especially since that totally messes up all the original fields.
Is there a way that mail can get the messages from the .edu account? It got all my gmail messages, but I didn't have any lucking with the other account. I'm not too sure what's required for getting mail from different accounts, so any info would help. Thanks.

Hi!
To get off your mails from your .edu account, you need to know the access data (server name, your username, password). Best way to get it is probably one of the system administrators.
In Apple Mail, create a new account (via File - Add Account…) complete the assistant to create an account and get all your Mail off your .edu account.

    Hello Sungal15,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To remove items from your computer, all you need to do is simply click and drag them to the Trash on your dock.  
    Delete an item from your Mac
    Drag the item to the Trash. Or select the item, then press Command (⌘)–Delete.
    Click the Trash, then click Empty. You can also choose Finder > Empty Trash.
    When you see a warning message, click OK.

    Hi
    You need to check with your ISP whether or not the send mail server (SMTP) requires a password.  Some do, but many do not.  When you know the correct password to send mail, then you need to tell Mail as follows:
    Mail menu > Preferences > Accounts > Select the account
    Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) combo box, and select Edit SMTP Server List...
    In the Account Information tab put the server name
    In the Advanced Tab, set up the authentication information from your ISP.
    Good luck

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

  • When starting Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message.

    When starting up Firefox 4 I get an error message. After clicking OK it nevertheless runs. How can I get rid off the error message?
    The error message is: what happened: Type Error: Components. classes ['@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1'] is undefined.
    It appears all the time already from the beginning after installing Firefox 4.

    Thanks a lot. The Ask toolbar created this problem. Another problem is: When searching on the web via Google, normally it is possible to type a few letters and then look what appears and then click on the wanted word(s). A number of word(s) ineed do appear, however it is not possible to select any of them as ws possible as mentioned in olders versions.

    Hi there HotFerrari,
    It sounds like you are unable to restore your device from a backup you have in iTunes. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

  • Applescript for mail error can't get message id

    I have an applescript (found on internet) for Mail 4.5 that deletes messages in "on my mac" mailbox "Deleted Inbox" that are older than 120 days. The script runs from an iCal daily event. I drag messages from Inbox to "Deleted Inbox" when I don't want the message in Inbox, but I want to save the message for 120 days before deleting it. The script sometimes runs successfully, and sometimes gives error "Mail got an error: Can't get message id xxx of mailbox "Deleted Inbox"". Then in Mail, I "Mailbox / Rebuild" that mailbox, and run the script manually without error. How can I avoid that error? The script is essentially:
    tell application "Mail"
              set OldStuff to every message of mailbox TheBox where date received of it < OldDate
              repeat with ThisMessage in OldStuff
        delete ThisMessage
              end repeat
    end tell
    Thanks for any help.
    Ken

    How can I avoid that error?
    I don't actually know how you can avoid that error. However, maybe you can use a workaround and have the script rebuild the mailboxes automatically when such an error occurs. Try the following code:
    tell application "Mail"
      try
        set OldStuff to every message of mailbox TheBox where date received of it < OldDate
      on error
        activate
        tell application "System Events" to click menu item "Rebuild" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Mailbox" of menu bar 1 of process "Mail"
        delay 1 -- adjust if necessary
        set OldStuff to every message of mailbox TheBox where date received of it < OldDate
      end try
      repeat with ThisMessage in OldStuff
        delete ThisMessage
      end repeat
    end tell
    Since the above script uses GUI Scripting, you must enable the Accessibility Frameworks by clicking the checkbox labeled "Enable access for assistive devices" in the Universal Access System Preference pane.

  • The name for my email in thunderbird now has a Paddle Lock showing on it. What does this mean? Can I get it off?

    When I open thunderbird and get logged in my Email address name at the top of my thunderbird email has a Paddle Lock on it. What does that mean? Can I get it off? I am using a VERIZON email address. Over the last 2 days I have not been able to down load any of my incoming email messages. It keeps asking me for my Password which I type in and then it says its incorrect. After resubmitting my password I get a Error message says #0012 password incorrect. Is this something thunderbird did or happened from the new update for Ver. 31.1.2? I need help.

    The padlock indicates a secure connection to the server. You don't want to get rid of that.
    Please check with Verizon whether something has changed on their end.
