Configuring mail between two Apples?L

I have two apple computers, a desktop and a MacBook Air for travelling. I want to configure mail so that both have full functionality but to have the desktop as the "master". Therefore, any messages sent from the Air should appear in the Desktop "sent" box, and anything deleted from the Air should not be deleted from the desktop. Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
No can do...
You can not check the remove a copy from the sever after recieving message on MBA Accounts: Advanced tab, so that all messages are downloaded to the Desktop (check that box on the Desktop) for incoming messages, but, there's no way to get the out messages from the MBA (or a phone or any other device) over to the Desktop sent or out box.
Webmail (browser based) would allow you one place to keep/see all your messages - but generally I find Webmail much slower and more cumbersome to use than a traditioinal e-mail client.

  • Problem syncing Mail between two computers

    I know this is a well worn topic and I've read the posts on syncing mail between two computers. Overall, I've gotten it to work pretty well. Whenever I move from one computer to another, I copy my ~/Library/Mail folder to my thumbdrive and sync it w/ the same folder on my other computer before I fire up Mail on it.
    But here's the problem: I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on one of my computers (let's call it computer A). This apparently gives new message numbers to the messages. Things worked great on computer A after that.
    Then I synced the mailbox with my other computer, computer B. On computer B, the change in mailbox numbers apparently was not recognized. Every message in the "sent" folder gave me the message that I needed to go online and download the message. So I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on computer B. Things then worked great.
    Then I synced back with computer A and the same thing happened. Every message in the sent folder gave me the "download from server message."
    It seems that I'm in some sort of infinite loop. The rebuild on one computer is not recognized by the other computer. Clearly, there is some file somewhere that contains info that's not being conveyed when I sync the ~/Library/Mail folder.
    Any suggestions??

    That is interesting. To that effect I have thrown together this Applescript:
    (CAUTION... do not run this script, experimental only!
    set flashDrive to "FLASH"
    tell application "System Events" to exists process "Mail.app"
    if the result is true then tell application "Mail" to quit
    -- copy files to mounted disk
    do shell script "rm -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
    do shell script "cp -r ~/Library/Mail /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/"
    do shell script "cp ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
    --copy files to userfolder
    do shell script "rm -r ~/Library/Mail"
    do shell script "cp -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail ~/Library/"
    do shell script "cp /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/com.apple.mail.plist ~/Library/Preferences/"
    Problem is, I don't know how to tell the script which version of mail data is older or newer. If you know of such a way let me know and I'll script it in, otherwise the user is stuck with manually choosing what to copy to where.
    And as we all know, any user choices are error-prone.

  • Sync Mail between two computers

    After Leopard upgrade, I switched from Entourage to Mail.app, so I'm new to it.
    I use two Macs and POP accounts. How can I sync Mail.app between two computers in Leopard? The Sync Service of Smart Folders is not enough for me.
    May I use a sync app like Folders Synchrnonizer?
    Thanks

    Both my wife and I have multiple macs and work at home and on the road - we've tried all sorts, and there are 3 approaches that work:
    1) IMAP
    I know you think this isn't the ideal solution for you, but it is unbelievably simple and rock solid once you get it working.
    Set your POP mail addresses to forward all mail to your IMAP address (I use .mac which is brilliant, I don't know about Gmail).
    Your mail is server based, so your laptop, desktop, iPhone, webmail from a PC etc. are all always in sync.
    You will still get your mail from your old accounts.
    You can set rules on any of your machines to filter your mail into folders according to which address they were originally sent to.
    HOWEVER the mail you SEND will be FROM your IMAP address, so your clients / friends may get confused if you don't want them to use your IMAP address as your main address.
    2)
    Leave POP mail on the server.
    In Mail preferences, highlight your POP account and click on the "Advanced" tab.
    Select "Remove mail from server" to a 1 day if you come home each night.
    If you are away for longer, make it 1 week or Never.
    This way, if you download mail on your Laptop, when you get home that evening, your desktop will download the same mail again, as it has been left on the server.
    It's sort of fake IMAP.
    The downside is you can end up with a full mailbox at the server very quickly as you are now leaving messages on it, and you may have to empty the server yourself sometimes (in the same menu you just adjusted).
    Also, if you are away from your laptop too long, you may download and later delete-from-the-server messages on your desktop, leaving your laptop out of date.
    Use Mac Sync to keep your rules, mailboxes and preferences synced up.
    This is the way it's designed to work, so it should work fine.
    3)
    Drag the Mail folder.
    Assuming you're only using one Mac at any one time, you simply move the main mail folder to whichever machine is current.
    Quit Mail on both machines.
    On your target mac, go to youruserfolder/Library and rename the "Mail" folder to something else like "Mail Old". This is just so you have a backup.
    On your source mac, go to youruserfolder/Library and copy that entire folder (not just the mailboxes) either to a drive to transfer to your target mac, or straight to it if you have it networked.
    When you start up mail you will find the messages, folders, mailboxes etc. are the same as they were on your source mac.
    Now you use your target mac (say your laptop) for a while.
    When you are going back to your original source mac (e.g. your desktop), you now repeat the process in the other direction, replacing your desktop's mail folder with your newer laptop's version.
    It's really important you use one mac at a time and swap the folder each time you switch.
    If you rename the previous version before you overwrite it, you know you have a backup if things get out of sync.
    It works really well if you only take the laptop out occassionally, or if you use it exclusively for days at a time (i.e you go away) and you only need to do the transfer every so often.
    Also, it helps if you don't have thousands of emails - if your Mail folder is under half a gig, you can do this quickly using a USB keyring or similar. Any bigger and the transfer can get a bit slow.
    I use option 1, and felt it was worth changing my email address for.
    My wife uses option 2 when she is using her laptop in the day and she can run her desktop each evening the download the mail left on the server.
    But she sometimes gets trouble with her popmail server filling up (she gets lots of video and audio attachments) so if she's going away or not planning to use her desktop in the evenings, she reverts to option 3 and removes messages from the server "right away", updating her desktop's mail folder at the end of the week and just using her laptop until then.
    Good luck!

  • Syncing Mail between two computers

    I use both a desktop and a laptop computer and need to sync my work files including my >10GB Mail folder between the two. For the most part I have been able to do this pretty successfully using Chronosync. I have a firewire drive that I plug in and sync the desired files, and this fire wire drive goes back and forth to work. For Mail I backup ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist and ~/Library/Mail.
    The problem I'm having with my mail is that every so often the index gets corrupted and then Mail abruptly quits. I'm assuming this is the Envelop Index file stored in the Mail folder, but I'm not totally sure. To rebuild it I have to restart Mail so it can rebuild the Index. That would be fine if that's all it did, but actually it re-imports all my email messages again and now I have duplicate copies. After this happens, I have triplicate and even quadruplicate copies. I'm using a Mail script to remove these duplicates, but this situation is getting out of hand. For example, today it will take ALL DAY to remove the >30,000 duplicates.
    Does anyone know the answers to the following:
    1. Why does the index get corrupted sometimes but not others?
    2. What can I do to keep this file from getting corrupted?
    3. Where are all these email messages that Mail re-imports coming from? I have extensive filters to sort incoming messages; I delete junk; I empty my trash on a regular basis. Why can't the index be created based on the existing folders that have the messages sorted into them? WHy are a bazillion messages being reimported?
    I am currently using POP servers. I played around this morning with IMAP because my employer provides it, but I don't see how this will solve my problem with my local nested storage of messages on my two computers that I wish to sync. And I think that IMAP is going to give me troubles in a short time because my employer only provides 250 MB of storage space. So storing messages on the server really isn't going to be an option for me.
    Any ideas anyone? Right now I'm not syncing to anything mobile other than my laptop, so I don't need any of iphone fixes....

    I'll just update to mention that I just noticed that the "Remove Duplicates" script isn't actually removing all the duplicates. I'm down from 3-4 copies of everyting to just two, and now I need a way to get rid of this one extra duplicate. Anyone know of any other ways to do this?

  • Configuring DNS between two non-trusted forest??

    We currently have a 2003 domain/forset setup and now have a new 2008 domain/forest setup running server core 2008 for the DCs.  What is the most secure way to setup DNS between the two forest without a trust so we can communicate for remote management
    of the server core DCs?  We have configured remote management for the server core DCs via the server core console, but there seems to be some type of DNS issue still out there.  We do not want to create a trust between the two forest because the
    2008 forest will be our DMZ.

    Hi Tony,
    I only forced the .local to display in the initial config one time, amongst several other fresh installs in which I just left it alone.
    I did a fresh install, followed standard protocol for the initial config, and configured DNS.
    In both cases (before and after I configured DNS) the keys you asked about in the preferences.plist are:
    <dict>
    <key>Network</key>
    <dict>
    <key>HostNames</key>
    <dict>
    <key>LocalHostName</key>
    <string>server</string>
    </dict>
    </dict>
    <key>System</key>
    <dict>
    <key>ComputerName</key>
    <string>server</string>
    <key>ComputerNameEncoding</key>
    <integer>0</integer>
    <key>HostName</key>
    <string>server.nineridge.com</string>
    </dict>
    </dict>
    ...yet again when I go to promote the OD to a master, the Kerberos Realm autofills SERVER.LOCAL.
    In case this is helpful, here is the output of the various checks:
    server:~ sadmin$ host server.nineridge.com
    server.nineridge.com has address 192.168.9.254
    server:~ sadmin$ host 192.168.9.254
    254.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer server.nineridge.com.
    server:~ sadmin$ nslookup server.nineridge.com
    Server: 192.168.9.254
    Address: 192.168.9.254#53
    Name: server.nineridge.com
    Address: 192.168.9.254
    server:~ sadmin$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
    Password:
    Primary address = 192.168.9.254
    Current HostName = server.nineridge.com
    DNS HostName = server.nineridge.com
    The names match. There is nothing to change.

  • Sharing Mail between two User on the same desktop

    I have a .Mac email account with alias account for my wife; and I have set up user account on our desktop each for myself and my wife. When my wife log on to the desktop using her account and try to check mail, Mail is asking her to set up a .Mac account again. Do I need to set it up again so that she can access my .Mac mail account under her log on? Or do we need to subscribe to a family .Mac account?

    If both of you have seperate Accounts on one mac, and yet sharing on One .Mac account, I think it is possible to set up your .Mac account on your wife's computer account, just enter the right user name, in this case it is yours, just one note you must remember, is to set either one of your Mail's .Mac account to leave mail on the server, or else whoever checks email first would have downloaded the mail to his or her computer... and the other one would not see any mail, of course this is a POP setting; If you set your .Mac to IMAP, then it shouldn't be any problem.

  • Sending e-mails between different SAP-Systems with SMTP

    Hello,
    I want to send e-mails between two different internal SAP-Systems. I already configured SMTP in both systems but ist not possible to send an e-mail from system A to system B.  I've got following error message:
    Cannot process message; no node determined for <sapuser>:
    Thanks in advance & best regards,
    Christoph

    Hi Christoph,
    but it is possible that the email for user from System B is also available in the system itself(transaction so01) and not only in his outlook inbox?
    As the email is sent from System A. It will be available under SOST of system A.
    As user in System B is receiving the email, it will be appearing in users inbox.
    Check with Mail server administrator on where to enable SMTP relaying for IP address of SAP server.
    Hope this helps.

  • Sync Mail between 2 mac's

    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to sync Mail between my two mac's? Using .mac or some other avenue? I am not only using .mac email but also a POP server and g-mail. thanks!

    Hi,
    To sync mail between two macs (also with the web browser and iPhone) yo need to set up the email accounts using IMAP. .Mac is automatically set up as IMAP. For gmail account the setup instruction can be found at
    http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=81379
    For POP server sync is not possible, you simply can read your email within an email client. Check with your email server, if they offer any IMAP access by any chance.
    Read the following thread for better setup of an IMAP account,
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8007668#8007668
    Other additional sync can be made using MobileMe in system preferences.

  • Configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN

    Hi guys, really hoping that someone can help me with configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN.
    Basically, I have created a new forest and installed a new exchange organisation in this forest.  Both forests are located on the same IP subnet and a two way trust has been created between the forests.  Federated sharing has also been configured. 
    I can use ADMT to migrate the user and computer accounts to the new forest and also migrate test mailboxes over.  Ideally, I want to be able to do the mailbox migrations in stages so will need to be able to have mail flowing between the two forests. 
    I have read over the following article (http://ibrahimnore.wordpress.com/2012/09/06/configuring-smtp-namespace-sharing-between-two-exchange-forests-part-2/)
    which is good but it's demonstrating over the internet, can anybody advise how this can be achieved on the local LAN? 
    Any help greatly appreciated :-)

    Hi Gilliano,
    Thanks for correct link. I must say this is a very good article indeed, I read the entire article and if you go to the 3rd part of this article, please note the text "DOMAINC.COM is configured as Internal Relay Accepted Domain on both the domains"
    This is exactly what I asked you to check. Personally, I understand the method described in this article will work but its very complex to manage and administer, while the easiest option is to configure internal relay at the first place and no need to make
    so many DNS changes and customizations to your environment.
    The solution really depends on what your requirement is - Since you mentioned that you are migrating stuff over from source to destination - I feel this article is too complex for your situation and not really worth (for your requirement). The setup described
    in the article is an excellent choice if you are planning to keep both forests alive for longer duration due to several reasons like compliance or company mergers and so on...
    please let me know if my explanation is not clear enough.. we can even even have a one-on-one email conversation too!
    All the best!
    Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. Regards, Siva

  • SMTP Namespace Sharing between two mail system

    I have used two mail server (Exchange 2013 and Linux sendmail) for mailing in the same domain like abc.com.
    I have converted authoritative domain in to internal relay for sending mail in Linux mail user, and create a send connector point to Linux mail system as a smart host. in that case my exchange user send mail to Linux user and internet via Linux smart host,
    then I create a receive connector in exchange server for receiving mail from Linux mail system as edge transport custom connector & permission set to anonymous, when Linux user send mail to my exchange user it queued in my exchange message queue and
    the error is:
    Last Error:A local loop was detected.
    What's the problem?

    Hi rana78,
    As Nathan mentioned, please create Contacts.
    Detailed information:
    So to avoid NDRs when using shared SMTP namespace you will need to either disable recipient filtering, configure the product to do LDAP queries against all directories that share the namespace, or create Contacts.

  • Is there a way to share my Mail account and settings between two partitions, running Snow Leopard and Lion?

    I have two partitions on my internal hard drive - one is running Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and the other is running Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. Mail (5.0) is set up and runs perfectly on the Lion partition and I have not used Mail (4.5) yet on my Snow Leopard partition. I want to know if I can read, download, and save mail into the same user Library folder (probably the Lion user library) from both partitions...

    You usually set up your mail accounts on a specific e-mail client programs such as Mail in OS X and Mail on an iPad, which will access the same remote mail server to have your messages show up on each device. Mailboxes can be synced in this way between two devices.
    An alternative is to use the same remote application such as Gmail to access that service from multiple devices, so a dedicated e-mail client like Mail is not needed, but the availability of these depends on the e-mail service being used.
