Can the Mail App color scheme be changed in Yosemite

Can you change the color scheme/theme in Yosemite Mail app? If yes, how do your do this.

The answer is "Sort of."
You can set Mail to automatically delete *every message retrieved from Hotmail* into Mail after the specified time period, so that the copy retrieved into (Apple) Mail is _the only_ copy.
Then, when you delete the retrieved Hotmail message from Mail, it's gone. But (depending on the timeframe you select) it was already gone from Hotmail, just by retrieving it into Mail.
1) In Mail, Preferences, select the Hotmail account.
2) In the Advanced tab, check 'Remove copy from server after retrieving a message'
and then the additional option *Immediately, After one day, After one week, or After one month.*
3) Note that only messages coming into the Hotmail Inbox are retrieved and then removed. If you have set filters in Hotmail to put specified messages into Hotmail folders, they will NOT be retrieved into Mail.
4) Messages that Hotmail puts into the Hotmail Junk folder are NOT retrieved into the Mail junk folder either.

Mail app quits when opened after installing Mavericks. I reinstalled and still the same. I noticed the mail app icon has not changed to the new icon in Mavericks. Any suggestions?

I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

Why won't the Mail app message list font change?

I am on Lion at home and at work. Using the new 3 pane layout in the Mail app. On both machines, when I go to preferences>fonts & colors> I can change all the fonts BUT the message list. No matter what I do it doesn't change. Is this a bug or just a factor of the new layout?

Sorry about the lack of information.
Yep, mailbox behaviour is sent to "store sent messages on the server". This is happening, though, other primary IMAP accounts. And yes, it's been since Mountain Lion. Sometimes the messages show under the account, other times they don't. There is no sense to the randomness of it. Is there a way to "reset" all of my mail accounts without losing all of my stored mail?

Can the Mail app be set up to actually delete mails in hotmail?

So that when I have to go directly to hotmail.com everything is more in 'sync'.

Can the Mail app mark POP server emails as "read" on all devices that are synced with it after the email has been viewed?

I currently have my work email on my laptop, mac mini, and a couple mobile devices. Is there a way to have all devices get marked as "read" when I view it from one device? It uses a POP server account.

No there isn't.
It's one reason that IMAP accounts are much better suited for use on multiple devices. Does you work only offer POP? I ask becuase, I once had a job where I had the ability to set up mail using either POP or IMAP..

How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.

How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.
Thanks!

No, they will all follow the default setting. If you want them all to fetch, for example every 15 minutes, then set it to 15 minutes in Fetch. I only mentioned the other if you wanted to leave one for manual. I have an account on my phone that is a POP account that I get mail at home from. I let my home computer get this mail, but when I am out of town, I pick it up with the iPhone. That one is set to manual.

In the mail app why can't I see single page pdf attachment created by SSRS R2 on iPad with iOS 8?

We have reports that are generated using Sql Server Reporting Services 2008 R2 and are distributed to users by email as a PDF attachment. This worked fine in iOS 7 but ever since users have updated to iOS 8 the single page PDF is missing even though it has the paper clip icon indicating there is an attachment with the email. If the PDF is multiple pages then the PDF icon would appear but there seems to be a problem with the single page pdf that is embedded on the mail app in iOS 8.
We've recreated this issue creating a test report and sent it to iPads that have iOS 7, iOS 8 using different models of iPads (2, 3, 4) and the ones that have iOS 7 work fine. Only the ones that have iOS 8 have this issue. Also tried changing the format of the file to a PNG, TIFF and again the same results on the iPads with iOS 7 display it correctly. Another test we did was send the PDF to our personal email and open it on our home iPads we were not able to see the single page PDF on iOS 8. Looking at the headers of the email I can see the that the Content-Type is multipart/mixed. When the original is forwarded to oneself on the iPad the attachment is included but the Content-Type is application/ms-tnef.

Can you check your email headers, I have also noticed this for reports that are generated using Sql Server Reporting Services 2008 R2. It could to be due to the Content-ID header I believe.
As a single page attachment on iPad will try and display inline, the Content_ID header is possibly affecting this and showing a small blank square as the image instead. Although this isn't defined as inline within the Content-Disposition header and will appear as an attachment on Outlook.

The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

TS3899 When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address. This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account. It is frustrating and poor design.

3rd party email addresses have to be deleted on every synmced mac product, although I have 1and1.co.uk and my imac updatetes the mails in that account from mac mail.
Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

I deleted my old Email account because I wanted to create a new one, and I did. However, when ever I send an Email from the Mail app on my laptop it says the Email was sent from my old Email and I just can not get rid of it.

I deleted my old Email and only used my new Email to set up the Mail app on my laptop. And the old Email is completely dead, hotmail.com says the Email no longer excists when I try to sign back in to it however my Emails remain saying 'Sent from Jordan [*old Email*].
I can't find a solution!!

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

I downloaded a word file from an inbox mail (the mail app) onto my iPad2, where is this file stored? How can I delete it if it takes up space in my iPad? Any ideas??

Did you ever figure out what happened?
I had the same experience as you did, but in my case it was a big fat pdf that Mail insisted I had to download before I could view it. As happened with you, I saw the file actually downloading, and after a time I was able to view the pdf. It's been my assumption that the pdf is still somewhere on my iPad, but I have no idea where, nor how to delete it if it is still there.
Thanks.

Mail app wont let me change the email address on my icloud accouny

I have an @mac Apple ID that I use all the time but it is not a setup email address. If you understand what i'm saying.
So I also have an @me email that Is linked to my icloud account, which i use me @mac ID to log in with.
I can access the @me email with the icould.com site, but when I use the mail app on my iphone4 running 5.1.1, It will not allow me to select the @me email as my primany email address, it is keeping my @mac id, which isn't an emailing account.
I can and do recived me emails to this account via the mail app but I can't send mail from this account because the @mac is not set up for email. can anyone help?

Read it again. It says anything stored in iCloud will be deleted FROM THE DEVICE - which makes sense if you are deleting the account from the phone. You will lose some photos ON YOUR DEVICE in shared photostreams since those are shown progressively from time of iCloud activation. They will still be available in iCloud and other other devices.
In any case, you should already be backing up those photos to a computer or some other service. If you lost or had your iPhone stolen - or even if some hardware issue occurred, you would lose them. Import them into your computer before doing anything.

Try downloading another app - any free app - that seems to reset something and the apps may start working again. Try that first. If that doesnt work, try these steps
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How can I have my emails on iPhone4 and and the mail app on Macbook?

I currently have a Yahoo email address which I had before having my iPhones...and now I have a Macbook Pro. How can I get my emails to be visible on my iPhone mail app and the mail app on the Macbook? Before I attempt it, if I add this mail account to the mail app on the Macbook will my mails then download and not be visible on the iPhone?

You need to make sure your Yahoo! account is configured as IMAP on all devices/computers you want to access it from:

How can I set an outlook mail account to the mail app in mac

My outlook mail account doesn't work in the mail app, it keeps asking for my password everyday, and the outgoing mail server says "outlook.com (dissconected)".

I don't have Hotmail, but generally, web based email accounts need to be set up within that account (in this case Hotmail) - you need to go to your Hotmail account and check if it can be set up as an IMAP or POP account with emails automatically being forwarded to Mail. Hopefully someone with a Hotmail account will chime in with more specific info; in the meantime, check out the options in your account there.
