Color-Code New Mail?n

I know Mail will bold new messages, but I want to color-code them red like Entourage will do. But they then need to go back to un-bold and black when I've read them.
Anyone know how you can make that happen?
thanks!

I don't have the code(or the version you're on) but I can tell you how to find it.
Take a screenshot, then open up Paint. Paste it in there and use the EyeDropper tool to select the color. In th etop right, click edit colors and it should bring up the edit color page with your color preselected. In the bottom right will be the numbers next to Red, Green, and Blue. Convert those numbers in to Hex and you'll have your code.
So to use the text from your subject here as an example, the numbers there are 31, 78, 174. That becomes 1F, 48, AE. Put them all together with a # in fron and you have #1F48AE.
You can use this trick to get any color you want out of the system to match formatting.

Color code e-mails on ipad mail?

I am looking for a way or an app to use which I can color code my emails within the mail program on my iPad. On my Mac, I am able to color code specific emails depending on what they are regarding. I am looking to do this on my ipad and I have looked everywhere and can not seem to find this. I know there is a way to just mark it in the "red flag" color, but I was wondering if there was a way to mark it in the colors that are on the Mac. Anyone????

Hi USERMD,
I know this is not what you are looking for, but the iPad mail is rather limited, as you know. I have set up separate folders (and I have a lot of them now), to sort my mail into the groupings that they are regarding. As I get the mail, I read it, and them immediately move it into it's appropriate folder.
Don't know if that will help at all, but it's the best way I was able to find to keep them organized and easy to find for specific topics.
Cheers,
GB

New Mail Color Coding

I have made rules in the past to color code new email, based on who it's from, etc.
My wife asked if there is a way to identify new messages by color coding. Once read, they would be normal again. Anyone know if this can be done?
Thanks
Shannon

I am having a %#@% of a time with colors too, but I do know this: if you start having things turn wacky colors, the easiest way to get rid of it is to go to the message (or shift-select all messages you want to change) and go to Format/Fonts at the top, and when the color wheel comes up, click one of the white squares at the bottom. That will take the color away--maybe in addition to eliminating the color from the rule, that will fix the problem? Good luck!

New mail is hi-lighted on the left column folder. Some appear in blue some black bold. Can you control this color ?

With the latest Thunderbird upgrade , I'm seeing some changes without me actually changing anything. The new mail hi-lighting seems to have a mind of it's own and I'd really like to be able to control that. Either force it to one color globally or actually have 'serious' new mail be hi-lighted with red bold. Version is 31.6.0.
Please advise.

Mail that you have not "seen" as if views in the list has the folder blue. mail that is unread in the folder is bold no unread mail is normal text. There is nothing mysterious about it.

Color code groups in address book

Is there any way to color code groups so that when mail comes in I know to associate it with a specific group. I was able to do this in entourage but have switched to apple mail.

As already described, create a new Rule in Mail.app (Mail -> Preferences -> Rules), that reads:
if (ANY) of the following conditions are met:
(Sender is member of group) (xxxxxxxxx)
Perform the following actions:
(Set Color) (Of Background (or text as you prefer) to (Any color you wish)
Save the rule.
Before doing that, you might want to create a few Groups (or Smart Groups) in Address Book with the people you want to color.
Hope this helps.

Why won't the color code I am trying to use from a windows machine work on my Mac? Code: PMS7409

Hi I'm an intern at a telecommunications and management company who are about to release an update on their website and server screens. My job is to create the new graphics and remake the presentation layers. I am also assigned to create a business card template, which is where my question comes. I am give a color code, from a Windows OS, and try to input that code into Photoshop CS6. That color code won't appear. It's a deep orange and the code I am being told is; PMS7409. I'm not sure thats a code (atleast on the Mac), but I haven't used a Windows OS in so long I don't even know if Windows has their own color coding system or what. Can someone help me out and tell me if this is me, my boss, or we're missing something and I'm going to look like an idiot?

Definitely not a colour code for mac, the only thing I suggest you do is if you get the code on your windows version is to get the other values i.e
instead and input those into it rather than the #colour code (Hue, Sat, B, R, G B) etc.
Also ... Colour codes are 6 figures long i.e the one displayed and also black #000000 and white #ffffff
however the one you gave is 7!

How do I replace image color with an exact html color code?

I simply want to change the color of a small pic to an existing html color code, 3399CC. The pic is very simple, and only has one color. In Photoshop CS4, I go to: Image -> Adjustments -> Replace Color. For the new replacement color, when I type in 3399CC, it doesn't give me that color - it gives some other shade of that color. (I can tell because I use a program that tells me the exact html code a color is when I hover my mouse over it). It seems the only way to really get the color you want is to adjust the sliders (hue, saturation, and lightness). But it'd be practically impossible to play around with every increment of those sliders until I get the exact color code.
There's got to be a way to simply enter the html color code and have the pic changed to that color. Does anyone have any idea?

Turns key. WhirrRRRrrrrRRRrrrr.... Nothing. (I answered in the other thread)
Perhaps I've had too much coffee today, because I just got a clear vision of Bart Simpson, at the board, chalk in hand...

Clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express, but does not create a new mail, which it used to. annoying as it then means cutting & pasting the details

As I said above, clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express which is my default email client. In the past it used to also open a new mail, ready for me to type the message but now it does not. It works if I load internet explorer as the browser but does not in firefox. I prefer firefox, so can someone help me resolve this. Its so annoying to have to open a new mail then cut & paste the email details.

I posted this reply elsewhere in the support forum but I'll copy it here for you, as follows....
I had the same problem. Initially thought I needed a string (code) to run the "Create new e-mail" command for Outlook but I didn't. I did a few things that eventually made it work, but I don't know for certain which one it was so here goes.
1.) Go to Control Panel and click on Internet Properties. Go to the Programs tab and double-check that Outlook Express is your default e-mail client. (This is probably for IE).
2. Close Outlook Express. Select the RUN command from the Start Menu and type the following: <msimn /reg>. Only type the info between the brackets. Click the OK button and wait about 5 seconds. Nothing will happen on screen but the information is being silently written to the registry.
3. Open Outlook Express and go to the Tools Menu. Select Options. On the General tab, look down to the Default Messaging Programs. More than likely, the top option will say that "This application is NOT the default Mail handler" Click the button next to it that says "Make Default". This should trigger an available option in Firefox, below, if it was not already available.
4. In Firefox, go to the Tools menu. Select Options. Click on Applications. Under the column, "Content Type" look for the mailto function. In the column Action, select "Use Outlook Express (default)" if it is not already selected. "(default)" must be part of the phrase. Somehow there is code behind this option that will bring up a new e-mail in Outlook that otherwise does not work if Outlook is selected manually. (To choose Outlook manually, you will indeed have to find the string code somewhere.)

Mail app crashes when getting new mail

Seems like it crashes while getting new mail. I had 'letterbox' plugin installed, thought that may be the problem, uninstalled it, but mail.app keeps crashing immediately after starting (while checking for mail). Any suggestions what the problem could be? Thanks!
I can paste the error report if that helps (probably not sure if that contains secure information that's better not shared with the world).

Color Code is not working, please help

I am using the color code 080808 from adobe photoshop as my background for my template. When i put the JPG file into dreamweaver and try to set the page properties in dreamweaver (background) to 080808 it is putting me at pure black. please help me.080808 is not a pure black its a shade of it. I need a color code that matches 080808 correctly. thanks
I am using adobe CS3

I'm not quite sure I understand exactly what you are doing, but I ran into something like this myself. I was creating GIFs in Photoshop -- type on a background color. I then created DW pages. I used the same color code for the background color in PS and again for the background color in DW, but when I inserted the images in the page, they did not match. It turned out that when I created a new file in PS, I was creating it in my default color space, Adobe RGB. I assumed that when Save For Web converted the file to sRGB, the colors would convert perfectly. What I found is that I should have been creating my PS files by starting with a new file in sRGB color space. Once I did that, the background color of my images identically matched the background color of my DW page.
Hope this helps.

New mail message, tab to body doesn't work

I have an Automator app. on my desktop that jsut creates a new mail message. It does not pre-fill any information, just a new, blank mail message.
The problem is, I can type the recipients address, tab to the Subject and type that. Then, when I try to tab to the message area or body, it just highlights the Subject and will not tab forward.
Any ideas?

The bug affects all applications that interact with Mail by way of Apple Events. Such apps as iPhoto, Automator, and AppleScript all use Apple Events to compose the buggy message. Until Mail's AE behavior is fixed, the only things I can offer are workarounds.
The previous script merely emulates user input instead of sending Apple Events. This is a bit of a kludge, and on second read a more precise solution would have been to invoke a blank mailto link:
click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">open location "mailto:"</pre>A workaround for your iPhoto-to-Mail bridge would be very difficult to conjure (if it's even possible) and unreliable at best. :\

objc[394]: alt handlers in objc runtime are buggy!

I hate to add a third entry but this one will end the speculation about this problem.
Apple mail is not designed to create a new mail account! WIndows mail, all forms, is designed to create new mail accounts. If you are new to mac, and you try to create a new mail account and the account you try to create already exists because it belongs to some else, the a return code for an error is returned from the mail provider. Apple mail unfortunately trys to handle
the error but does not bother range checking the return code for validity. This results in what I said above and the mail crashes. Nothing that happens should ever cause a crash! There are a number of software errors in Apple mail that need attention. To fix this problem, just go to your email provider and create the account. Then add it in apple mail.
This will work without error.

Programatically create new mail item and open - body text lost on subsequent saves

Hi,
I have a problem with trying to create new GroupWise mail item from a
button in a C3PO. I require programmatic access to this via the Object
API, so it must be a saved draft. This is relativley straight forward to
do - just create a mail item using the object API, and then use the Token
API to open this item.
This worked fine in 6.5.0, however in 6.5.1 and 6.5.2 I have noticed that
when the user does a subsequent save, the body text of the message
dissappears in the GUI (it is updated correctly in the draft however) -
and all subsequent saves cause the body text to dissappear. If you close
the mail item and open the draft manually you can continue as normal.
As a test, I also tried to use the Token API to create a new mail item,
and then again to save the item in the work in progress folder. This
seems to work fine the very first time you do this, but each subsequent
time the same behaviour is seen - i.e. the body text of the email is
deleted from the GUI. Also, another observation here, event though the
mail item was saved in the WIP folder via the token API command
ItemSaveMessageDraft, it moves into the users MailBox when the user saves
it manually.
I have posted the two snippets of code from my test C3PO project at then
end.
This is a major problem, as we need to be able to reliably create new mail
items from a toolbar button, so any help very much appreciated.
Regards
Greg
