Can't add 2 IMAP accounts with same incoming server

I'm trying to move all my email accounts from POP to IMAP. Where I have 2 (or more) accounts on the same mail server I can't create the second account - it says the IMAP server will not connect.
I have tried adding one account then the other. Whichever I add first works and the second always fails.
Any ideas please?

Some mail servers are set to only allow a limited number of simultaneous connections from the same IP address. You need to check with admin of the mail server to increase the threshold if that is the case.
Also the server administrator would able the check system logs to see if there are any login errors.
I use apple mail and have 3 imap accounts on the same mail server functioning without issue. But I had to change a setting on the mail server to increase the max connections from the same IP. Luckily I administrate my own mail servers.

  • Can I create a user accounts with same UPN, CN, SAMACCOUNT and display name in different OU?

    Thank you.
    Thank you

    Hi laJasmine
    No you cannot do that.SAMAccountName must be unique within a domain.Also userPrincipalName(UPN) has to be unique within the forest
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms676913(VS.85).aspx
    sAMAccountName should
    be less than 20 characters to support clients and servers from a previous version.The sAMAccountName must
    be unique among all security principal objects within a domain..."

  • Can we have 2 Alert Configurations with same XI Server, Local&Central(CCMS)

    Hi,
    I am looking to configure Local Alert Configuration with XI Server,
    It already had CCMS Alert Configurations in place, But the solution Manager
    is forwarding alerts related to all the Servers (ECC,CRM,BW,XI). It is becoming
    difficult to track the alerts of XI.
    So my question is is it possible to have 2 alert configurations with XI l ocal & Certral (CCMS)?.
    What are the effects if we have both.
    I think  it is possible to maintain xi specific alerts to specific mail ID's . But basis is finiding difficult in doing this.
    Let me know suggestions if you have any in this case.

    Yes you can have your own PI specific alerts.
    You do this via ALRTCATDEF (as stated earlier)
    You can edit the message header so you know if it's PI generated or if you log in as PISUPER to configure this then the sender will be PISUPER
    Alternatively, why dont you ask BASIS to turn off monitoring for XI and allow you do a more fine-tuned version of this monitoring.
    Or even better, dont create any local alerts but have BASIS finetune the central alerts so that the affected system is included in the subject header, also have them create roles for these systems and ensure messages are only sent to the impacted role. Blindly sending messages for all system to all system owners is really lazy config.

  • I have changed settings on my email account with my provider, but in order to activate the address they instructed me to delete my account and add a new account with the same email address. Will this delete my all my email history? Any advise please?

    I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?

    Can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, your ID is essentially your account. You can have email aliases and you can have multiple accounts, but I don't think that's what you are asking.

  • Using only IMAP account with Mail app

    Hello,
    I am attempting to get the Windows 8.1 Mail App to allow me to configure only an IMAP email account as the primary account. I have enabled the Group Policy setting to allow to App to run without a Microsoft Account but when I open the mail account and try
    to log in, it doesn't ask for incoming/outgoing servers, just one, and it will not accept either the IMAP or SMTP server that my organization runs. I am able to add the IMAP account if I first log in with a Microsoft account but since we already have domain
    accounts, I do not want to have to set each user up with a Microsoft account. Is there a way to just configure an IMAP account for the Mail App or does is have to be Exchange or Microsoft?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I made a test in our testing enviroment, please just add a mail account you have, when added successfully, you can choose to add a new mail account, it contains the settings for IMAP you can choose.

    Is it not possible to create 2 different accounts with same user id ? please help me to solvwe this issue

    She can't. She needs to setup her own AppleID and then create an iCloud account using that.
    You can still continue to share your existing AppleID for iTunes and App Store purchases.

  • Two account with same UPN in Active Directory

    Is it possible to have two accounts with same UPN in AD? 
    I'm using Windows Server 2012 R2

    To expand on what Mr X said. Active Directory allows you to assign just about anything to the userPrincipalName attribute, as long as the value is unique. The value of this attribute is generally referred to as the UPN. But you could assign values with no
    "@" symbol, for example, or more than one "@" symbol. Also, Active Directory does not require that any value be assigned. It is an optional attribute.
    If no value is assigned to the userPrincipalName attribute, then the user can use a "default" UPN, which is <sAMAccountName>@<DNS domain name>, where <sAMAccountName> is the "pre-Windows 2000 logon" name of the user
    (the value of the sAMAccountName attribute), and <DNS domain name> is the DNS name of the domain.
    If a user has a value assigned to userPrincipalName that does not match this "default" form, then they can logon with either UPN, as long as no one else has either value assigned to their userPrincipalName attribute. You will note that Active
    Directory enforces uniqueness in the domain on sAMAccountName values.
    If in domain "domain.com" a user has a sAMAccountName of "jsmith" but userPrincipalName "[email protected]", then another user can have userPrincipalName of "[email protected]" (as long as no one else
    has that value assigned to userPrincipalName). They can each logon with their assigned values for userPrincipalName. But the first user can no longer also logon with their "default" value, based on their sAMAccountName, because it is now
    used by someone else. But if you attempt to assign a value to userPrincipalName that is also assigned to another user, you get an error.
    Bottom line, only one person can logon with any given UPN.

  • Multiple accounts with same email

    I have multiple accounts with same email
    The one that has all my contacts is the one attached to FB but for some odd reason I can no longer access this specific account
    When I try to reset my password, it only keeps asking me to change my FB password
    Once I try logging in on Skype, it keeps asking my FB to connect to the other 2 Skype accounts, completely diffente usernames
    I am only interested in the one that originally connected to my FB as it has all my contacts
    As my other 2 accounts are my old Skype accounts and have my old contacts from years ago

  • My old MobileMe account surfaced when I was on a support call. I didn't discover it until the case was closed. How can I replace this obsolete account with my current iCloud account?

    My old MobileMe account surfaced when I was on a support call. I didn't discover it until the case was closed. How can I replace this obsolete account with my current iCloud account?

    Do you mean that you were using the Apple ID which is your ex-MobileMe address? It's still an Apple ID, even though MobileMe itself is dead, and there's nothing to stop you from using it as an ID with Support, or logging in here or in iTunes with it. You should make sure you have a functioning non-Apple email address associated with it.
    Did you migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud before 1 August last? If so, you can set up an iCloud account using it, or if you have already set up a new and separate iCloud account you can still log in with it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars so that it runs alongside your iCloud account.
    If you didn't migrate you can still reactivate the address the same way.
    Anything where you've logged in with the ex-MobileMe address, such as support for something you registered using it or a server such as iTunes, will need to continue using it.

  • How can I recover my old account with a new one?

    Hi, my hotmail account it was hacked, I can't have acces to my adobe account anymore.
    How can I get acces to my old account with a new Adobe ID?
