Can you move mail from one account to another?

I Use Bellsouth as my ISP. As other Posters have noted they are one of the ISPs that won't accept outgoing mail when you are on the Edge Network (even more frustrating since they are owned by AT&T!). When I go out, I have to change my outgoing mail server to cwmx.com which allows me to send messages and reply to e-mails over the Edge network or random Wi-Fis I pick up.
However, cwmx.com doesn't work over my home network...I have to reinsert mail.bellsouth.net:25 in the outgoing server. It is a real pain.
So, I also have a G-mail account. I thought if while I was out, and I went to iPhone/settings/mail/default account, I could select G-mail as the default and I could respond to e-mails that came in on my Bellsouth account via G-mail. Not so fast, Kemosabe!
So, does anyone know a way to move an incoming message from one email account to another on the iPhone so you can reply using a different account?
Just as an anecdotal observation, seems like Apple's iPhone partner, AT&T and all of it's children could give less than two hoots about Apple, Safari, etc. They seem pretty stuck in the PC world.

Formally I always used my ISP's email account as my primary account and when moving or if deciding to change ISPs (I moved twice within a two year period of time), this required changing my email address so I switched my primary email account to a .Mac account so my ISP doesn't matter. It has an authenticated SMTP server so I can send messages with my account regardless which ISP I'm using for my internet access.
A Gmail account would provide the same for you, is free and can be accessed as a POP account or IMAP account with any email client on your computer and with the iPhone's email client. An IMAP account would also provide for keeping all server stored mailboxes synchronized between both email clients used and the ability to save Sent messages on the server with both so sending a message with the iPhone's email client will be available in the account's Sent mailbox with the email client used on your computer automatically and vice-versa. You can also create additional server stored mailboxes with the email client used on your computer for storing received or sent messages by by category and these additional server stored mailboxes will be available with the iPhone's email client automatically.
This is not possible with a POP account and BellSouth provides POP account access only.
I understand it is a pain to change your email address but with the combined benefits of a Gmail account which is free and has a good spam filter on the server, I think you should give this some serious consideration.

  • Can you move applications from one account to another?

    My wife accidently purchased two apps before she realized that they would not work on her iPod. She has a Nano and she bought iPhone/Touch apps. I would like to get them on my iPhone which is synced to my Mac (not her ugly windows laptop.)
    I get a "You are not authorized, na na na na na na" notice when I try to sync them to my phone.
    Is it possible to move them?

    No, you cannot. Apps are DRM-protected and linked to the iTunes Store account used to download/purchase them (this applies to both paid and free apps). You could only use them if you are signed into her iTunes Store account (in which case you would have issues with your apps) and your computer is authorized on her account.

    Can i move money from one account to another?

    Basically, no; only the iTunes Store staff can do this, and then only by putting the balance from a completely unspent gift card back onto the card.

  • How can i move music from one account to another

    I have 4 different accounts in Itunes and i wish to move all the music into one account

    You can't transfer content from one account to another account, nor can you merge accounts - content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it

  • Can you move events from one drive to another easily?

    I've just bought an external firewire drive to dedicate to my Sony HD camcorder material.
    I've only imported 30 mins or so of stuff onto the Mac's internal drive with iMovie '08, and would like to know if anyone's managed to easily copy 'events' from one drive to another to merge/split content.
    Is it just a case of copying event folders from the iMovie Events folder to the external drive, but if so do you have to specify a particular path?
    Similarly, can you just move the individual 'Projects' or archive to DVD etc as they will invariably take up lots of space for longer footage? Does the projects file just hold references to the assembled clips, in which case moving events would scupper things as I seem to have several movie files in there already though these may just be things I uploaded to .Mac to test out.
    This may all be a bit of trial and error. Hopefully clips are only references unlike the pretty huge but self-contained iMovie 6 HD project packages. This also raises issues about how to easily backup all your 'events'.

    Observation:
    Just imported 15mins of video from the Sony.
    When you click import you are asked which drive to save to.
    As well as the Mac's internal drive, all my attached USB drives which are formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled) appear as targets to save to as well as teh Firewire drive.
    I selected the Firewire drive and don't recall an option to create a sub-folder. After import a new top level folder of iMovie Events was created, but no others.
    Presumably iMovie Projects/Shared folders only exist on the boot drive.
    I'm assuming that this structure will allow you to share movie Events between Macs using external drives.
    Again, an assumption but I suspect iMovie scans all available suitable hard drives and checks what content is available in top level iMovie Events folders for non-boot drives as well as this folder in the user's Movies folder.
    Rambling observations over for now.

  • Can't move emails from one account to another in native Mail app IOS 7.0.3

    I can select an email and click on move, and MAIL looks like working (the animation seems to move the email to a different account folder) but indeed is not moving the email! This was working with the previous release of IOS
    Mail works if I try to move email to a folder belonging to the same account.
    I need to move email from my university account to my gmail to store it! And I can't create an alias in gmail because of my university (stupid) security policies.
    Thank a lot for your help.

    Hi Kobe Zhang
    Option 1:
    Your MSN account might be deleted but the eprintcenter wont be deleted along with it.
    You should be still able to login to eprintcenter account using the old msn id and the same old password for eprintcenter account which you used regularly.
    If you have forgot the password, i dont know how can you recover it. 
    If you get a chance to login then you can remove the printer from the old account and then claim it in your new account created usign hotmail ID.
    If you are not worried about changing your printers email ID, here is option 2.
    One more option is to de register the printer and register it again to cloud to get a new email address which can be used to claim the printer in your new account and then customize your email ID there. But be aware that you might not be able to set the same customised email ID which you have used in your old account.
    Kind Regards,
    Olilloyd

  • Can't move emails from one account to another, some accts greyed out.

    I am using the iphone 4s and ios 6    I have two gmail accounts and one outlook exchange accout through work.  I used to be able to move messages from 1st gmail to the second or even to the outlook exchange acct just fine.  Now depending on which acct I am starting in, some of the other accts are greyed out and I can't click on them.   What has happened and how can I fix this?  I think this may have been in another thread but I didn't see anything specific or any fixes.
    Thank You

    I have similar problem here which problem began this morning. When attempting to move an image file to a folder (something I've done a kazillion times) an error message pops up:
    The item "*.jpeg" could not be moved because "Raw Images" cannot be modified.
    No amount of changing file permissions makes any difference. Redoing the image with PhotoShop doesn't help. Tried to move an image file I created years ago and get same message. Also changed permissions on destination folder - no effect.
    I can however move the same recalcitrant file to a backup HD or a memory stick without problem. Can also move same file into iPhoto with no problem.
    Ran Applejack utility - no difference.
    Is this a virus or Trojan Horse of some kind??? Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Can you move Photos from one folder into another?

    Doesnt seem like you can.
    Can you?
    And can you create new folders on the Finder level within LR like you can in Bridge?

    You can when inside a folder. Drag from the image not the grey border. If in doubt grab the center if the image.

  • Can you transfer purchases from one account to another?

    My parents created an Apple ID using our HOME E-MAIL and I've been using that one since I first used iTunes. Now, I have MY OWN e-mail address and I want to use that one now. I want to know if there's a way to TRANSFER ALL the purchases I've made with that account to my new one. I really DON'T wanna have to buy them again...and I have ALOT of stuff I bought.

    Stuff that was bought recently is DRM-free, and should work under any account.
    Stuff that was bought when all files were DRM-protected are non-transferrable between accounts.
    If you subscribe to iTunes Match, you should (not 100% positive) be able to delete your DRM-protected files and redownload them from iTunes's matching service. (Ones that are matched, of course.. Uploaded ones will stay DRM'd.) It's only $25 for a year's subscription, and all their files are 256kbps, too. I'd recommend this solution.
    If you bought video files, I'm afraid you're screwed, as there's no way (that I know of) to remove DRM from videos. Either re-download or keep authorizing your computer with both iTunes accounts (the old one and your current one).
    I have a couple music vids and TV show episodes that a buddy of mine gave me about 9 years ago. Every time I get a new computer, I have to have him come over and authorize my account, or I can't play them.
    Hope this helped.

  • Is there a way to automatically move mail from one folder to another?

    Is there a way to periodically, automatically, move mail from one folder to another?
    For example, I'd like to move mail from one of my IMAP/Archives folders to my MyMac/Archive folder and I'd like this to happen without intervention.
    Can this be done?

    I'll try to be more specific.
    When I'm done with an email, I archive it.
    Because I have multiple email accounts, this results in emails in multiple Archive folders (one per account). 
    I'd like to have these automatically all moved into one (on my Mac).

    Can I move photos from one computer to another using Vault?  I use an external hard drive as a vault for my Imac and I want to import photos to my Macbook pro.  I have aperture 3 on both units.  Can I just plug the ext. drive into the laptop and import from the vault?

    You can't import from the vault but you can restore that vault onto the MBP. This will restore the complete library that is contained in the vault.

  • Can I move files from one caralog to another?

    Can I move files from one caralog to another?

    No. you cannot.
    This, among many other reasons, is why multiple catalogs are not recommended.
    (You could import the photo into another catalog, and delete from the first catalog ... and without first using the command File->Write Tags, you will lose your tags, captions and other metdata; version sets, stacks, album/collection membership are lost in any case)
