Configure Mail reading behaviour

Is there a way to configure Mail.app such that it does not automatically open a message after deleting a message opened previously?

I don't have an answer to your question, but the "mail" specific forum is under discussions pertaining to "Mac OS X & Related Software."

After 1st Gen iPod touch reset, cannot configure mail for Mobile Me or iCloud account

I recently reset my iPod touch 1st Gen, v. 3.1.3 (7E18) and have not been able to configure Mail to check the Mobile Me or iCloud mail server. I get an error msg that the user name or password must be incorrect, but they're not. I assume this is due to the old IOS not being up to date with iCloud technologies, but I was able to get mail on this device before resetting. I don't use it much for email, but do carry it on trips as a backup access device to get to mail and calendars. I dont really want to use Safari to check mail when there is a mail app for doing so.
Any suggestions?

I'm new to Apple's Mail program (I've used AOL for years). How do I configure Mail so once an email is read it automatically disappears from the list of emails? Conversely, how do I mark "keep as new" an email I've read but I want to remain on the screen?

Right click on the email in the left hand pane. Select Mark as Unread to return it to an unread state. Click Delete to move it to the trash or file it in a folder if you have any configured. You may need to click the show button on the upper left hand side of the window to see your folders. The + sign at the bottom of that pane allows you to add a new folder.

XFCE4 & Preferred Applications; Mail reader 'claws mail' wont open

Configuring my XFCE4 setup I wanted to set Claws Mail as my standard mail client, such that when I open links in my browser pointing to mail addresses (mailto:[email protected]) that specified mail clilent automatically opens and lets me type my mail right away.
Now... that doesn't work. First Sylpheed Claws was set as my Mail Reader (apparently installing claws mails leads to two entries in the /usr/bin, one for Claws Mail and one for Sylpheed Claws). I switched to Claws Mail, and... it doesnt work.
So, what is there to do about this issue? Any workarounds?
I am using Epiphany as my browser, if that's relevant.
Ah, I also wanted to track this problem down by opening Epiphany in the terminal and see what happens (error messages that is). But it won't open in the shell. I start it, it runs, but there is nothing printed in the prompt (if I close the terminal again, epiphany stays open). Can I force it to run inside the shell?

Although the post is quite old -- I have the same problems using awesome window manager, epiphany browser and claws-mail.
If someone still uses Epiphany with webkit see
http://www.mail-archive.com/epiphany-li … 03090.html
For epiphany 2.30 I tried
$ mkdir -p ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto
$ gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/command -t string 'claws-mail --compose %s'
$ gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/enabled -t bool true
But it won't work ;-( Has anyone ideas?

How do I configure mail to keep email in my inbox longer other than archive?

Email in the Mail program stays in my inbox only so long and then it goes away. I cannot figure out how to set email to stay there until I delete it or archive it. Can someone point me to the configuration on this? I'm using POP and IMAP accounts in the Mail app. Thanks.

In the accounts preferences you can configure POP accounts to leave mail on the server.
If you don't have it set to leave mail on the server then whichever device reads the mail will have the mail downloaded to it.
That is the advantage of imap accounts. You can read from any device and the mail remains on the server unless you specifically move it.
By the way, comcast accounts can now be set up as imap in Mail.

How to configure mail client to only download headers(titles) of emails

Hi there?
I have 10 different email accounts (for some weird reasons that i think irrelevant fir this question), and i want to use Mail app as my main client. iCloud, hotmail, yahoo, gmail, other imap and pop etc.
Now the mail client is trying to download everything from the servers which is gigs of storgae space. I need to configure mail to only download titles of emails, not the entire email with attachments etc.
I can do that very simply in MS Outlook, and even in the old outlook express client.
How can i do that in Mavericks mail client please? I looked everywhere
Thanks

Try going to the web based site and see if you can set up a temporary folder there. Move anything you don't want to download to that folder.

How to configure Mail to send from off-site

I am trying to configure Mail on a laptop that will send and receive email both went it is connected to the servers ISP (on site) and when the laptop is connected to a non-site ISP. In other words when I am in the office I am connected to the ISP that is hosting my mail server. When I am out of the office and using an ISP that is not hosting the mail server. I have configured Mail such that I can send and receive email when I am onsite. When I am offsite I can receive email but not send it. In order to fix the problem I have tried configuring the SMTP to require password authentication using a couple of different server ports (i.e. 25, 110 & 587) but have been unable to send from off site. At this point I am at a loss as what to do. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If the off-site ISP doesn’t let you send no matter what port you use, there is little, if anything, you can do about it. Many ISPs, however, only block port 25 for all traffic outside their own network. Something that usually works in those cases is changing the outgoing server port to 587 instead of 25 in Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server > Server Settings, but the outgoing server in question must listen to that port for this change to work.
If the off-site ISP allows sending on port 587, but the outgoing server you want to use doesn’t listen to that port, you may solve the problem by using an independent authenticated SMTP server that allows sending from any mail account no matter where you are.
A Gmail account, for example, would allow you to do this. Instructions for setting up a Gmail account are provided here:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13275
After setting up the Gmail account in Mail and checking that it works, you can use Gmail's SMTP server to send from your other mail accounts as well:
1. Log into your Gmail account on the web.
2. Go to Settings > Accounts.
3. Enable the addresses you want to be able to send from, and let Gmail validate them by verifying that you do indeed own them.
4. For each mail account you want to send from using Gmail’s SMTP server, in Mail go to Preferences > Accounts, and choose Gmail’s SMTP server from the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu.

How to configure Mail to use different ports for POP and SMTP?

I am trying to configure Mail for my AT&T account. It requires me to configure POP (incoming) mail for port 995, and SMTP (outgoing) mail for port 465. However there doesn't seem to be an option to configure different ports for these. Is that correct, or am I missing something?
Alternatively can I configure two accounts, one for POP incoming and one for SMTP outgoing? My incoming POP account does work, but in configuring an outgoing account I still have to configure a POP server name and that will not work for the outgoing port.
Any advice on how to solve this would be appreciated.

Understand. It is really quite easy to do in Mail, too. Kappy told you how to set up the smtp piece. I gave you pop info. These two things are on different panels within Account Preferences.
To recap his and my posts
SMTP:
In Mail Prefs, click on the accounts icon. Click on your att yahoo account on the list. On the right of the window, in the lower portion, you see an smtp server menu. Open it and select edit. Select Edit Server, then click on its Advanced tab. Set up port 465 with SSL.
POP:
This is on a different panel in Mail PRefs Accounts. Now in Mail Prefs, click on the accounts icon. Click on your att yahoo account on the list. On the right of the window, you see three tabs, acc't info, mbox behaviors, and Advanced. This is where things are different than for smtp. You are going to configure stuff on a different "advanced" panel than where you were for the smtp stuff. Click on the advanced tab. There is a field for port with a SSL checkbox next to it and an authentication drop down menu. Check the box and it should quickfill change from 110 to 995. Autentication drop down is probably already default to password.
Did you visit the URL I gave you previously? It even gives you screen shots.

How to configure mail server for subscription

Hi,
I want to test subscription. My problem is how to configure the mail server.
As to my understanding, we need first configure mail server, then the user can choose "Subscribe" in the Details screen of a folder.
My steps are:
1. In KM - CM - Utilities - Channels, specify SMTP server, userId and password.
2. In KM - CM - Utilities - Channel originators, set the Original address for notificator.EMAIL.
3. In KM - Collaboration - Groupware Transport - Mail Transport, specify SMTP server and sent message folder.
After that, when I choose a user and click "Send email", it failed saying "Failed to communicate with SMTP server when sending the email.".
Could anyone tell me what's wrong with my configuration, or what should I do to make subscription work?
Thanks,
Ray

Hi Vineeth,
Thanks for help.
According to your steps:
1. set up a mail transport and making notification and mailing service active.
In System admin - KM - CM - Global services, I've enabled Inbox, Mailing and Notification services.
In KM - CM - Collaboration - Groupware Transport, I've set up a mail transport:
Name: JavaMailTransport
SMTP Server: smtp.yahoo.com
Sent message folder: /documents
System alias name: mytransport
2. Give everyone read permission on notifications in KM.
Where can I set user's permission on notifications? I think you mean folder /etc/notifications, but I don't know how to set permissions.
3. Check if proper id's are maintained in users profile.
How to do this?
Thanks for help~~
Regards,
Ray

Hi Pankaj Sharma,
The suggestion above would be a good solution to you. However, if you do not want to use this add-on, you may just configure SBO-Mailer to perform the task. You may check all available setting for the mailer and read through Administrator Guide for how to set it up.
