Create global inbox for IMAP accounts

I know how to combine multiple email accounts into a single global inbox for POP but how do you do this for IMAP setup?
The instructions I have found in this forum talk of a setting that I can't find.

You can use Unified Folders.

Lost global inbox for Mail (inbox tray icons?)

i have had to add five accounts to my mail (i did this in Settings Mail Contacts and Calendars) and they came up with little "inbox trays" as icons instead of the icons that i think i am used to which are shown in the screenshot below the new accounts.
this has also had the effect of my not seeing a "Global Inbox" for my Mac Mail which is the primary way i access my mail. since i have about fifteen accounts it is going to be almost impossible for me to click on each account and then go to the inbox of each account to check for mail.
i went ahead and DELETED the new accounts and this did not fix it. i also went ahead and re-added the accounts and they came up again as you see below.
i saw one post on this which was not exactly the same and the user was on POP whereas all my accounts are on IMAP.
i do obviously still get the global inbox in mac mail on my computers but this issue makes it almost impossible for me to check mail when away from the computer.
any advice or ideas that will help me avoid making an appointment at the genius bar?
THANK YOU

Hello hotwheels 22,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with Mail on your iPhone.
I recommend following these steps and checking for the Global Inbox after each step (you can skip 4 because it does not relate to the issue you are experiencing and any other steps you may have taken):
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:

How Can I Turn OFF Junk Mail Filter for IMAP Accounts Only?

I am trying to figure out how to turn off the Junk Mail filtering for IMAP accounts such as .Mac/.ME and GMAIL. All filtering is working fine on the server side, and reviewing the mail that is tagged is easy enough by just going to the account and displaying the folders created on the server.
I've checked the Junk mail pref and although the Advance settings let you isolate specific accounts to check, it does not give you the option bypass checking an account.
i.e.
if <Any> of the following conditions are met:
<Account> <is not> <Gmail (IMAP)>
As is, the mail rules are working perfectly on the server side, but in Apple Mail, many mails are being sent the Apple Mail's Junk folder.
When going through the Gmail's instructions on setting up a Gmail account for Apple Mail, it specifically says to turn off Junk mail filtering for the account, but I can't find any options to do that.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

I haven't tried this, but it should work:
Make a new rule,
If <Any> <Account> is <Gmail> or <Account> is <.me> then "Stop evaluating rules".
Move this rule to the last in the list of rules.
In the Junk Mail preferences, be sure that "Filter junk mail before applying my rules" is unchecked.

Help to configure msoutlook separate inbox for each accounts in office 365 in mac

i have installed office 365 in mac pro book and configured 3 accounts. all the mails are downloading to same inbox. please let me the configuration to receive mail in separate
inbox, sent, draft, etc.. for each accounts

Hi,
By default, the Outlook folder list groups similar folders, such as inboxes, from all of your mail and Microsoft Exchange accounts. This feature can make it easier to read all your messages at once, without having to move around between mail folders.
If you want, you can turn off this feature so that each account and all its folders are separated in the folder list:

How to create an inbox for WMA sms?

Hi,
Please can anyone tell me how to create an inbox for the WMADemo that is used for sending and recieving sms. PLEASE HELP!!!

For this you will need persistant storage. The only persistant storage available on J2ME devices are RecordStores. You'll probably need to use that.
Everytime a message comes it, store it in the RMS, and only delete it if the user requests that op.

IPhone mail inbox grey for IMAP account

I am having trouble with the main inbox folder on IMAP email accounts being greyed out on the iPhone. Greyed out meaning I cannot select the inbox and look at my mail. Only the inbox is grey, subfolders are black and I can read mail in them.
Two separate IMAP accounts worked fine in the past, with exactly the same settings & credentials. Now both exhibit the same behavior.
Yes, I've recreated the accounts from scratch on the iPhone.
Yes, I've tried using 'INBOX' in the IMAP path
Does anyone know what the grey represents in terms of an error message?
Any fixes for the this problem?
Thank you in advance.

Guys... not sure if this helps but it's worth mentioning. I'm beta testing a system at work for an upcoming change of email servers in the next 8 months or so. I have been using my 3G up until yesterday with no problems and then suddenly my inbox started being greyed out. Every once in a while when going back to the home screen then choosing mail again I might get placed into the inbox where new messages could be read or deleted. Going back out of the inbox would result in a greyed out choice. I did try removing/adding/etc the settings and even creating new profiles. All were the same. I upgraded to 2.1 this morning and same issue.
Now the only thing I did differently prior to having problems is that I accidentally created subfolders in my INBOX. I'm running UWIMAP 2007B on the backend and Perdition as the front end proxy server with a self signed SSL certificate. The mailbox format being used is MIX therefore subfolders are supported. I did remove all traces of the subfolders and the problem continued so I'm not 100% sure that was the cause, however, it is strange that I have had this mailbox configured since July 17th and no so much as a hiccup until the subfolders were created. Thunderbird or mail.app had no problems during any of this accessing my inbox and folders. It was only the iphone giving me grief. Anyway, removing the folders had no good outcome so I started searching the web. Coming across multiple posts that say use INBOX as the imap prefix folder, I decided to try that. That worked great but since my other folders were in ~/mail that caused those folders to not appear. The easy solution is to move move those out of ~/mail and under INBOX. If you are using dovecot or another server that supports subfolders this should work as the INBOX is simply a directory with dotfiles that contain the data. All of my folders are now under the INBOX and the iphone appears to be happy. My inbox is accessible and I have all of my other folders at my fingertips.
I hope this will help at least one of you out there. It's been very annoying but glad it was figured out.

Mail and To Do Setup for IMAP Account

Hello,
I am attempting to setup the TO DO function in Mail.app and am not having too much luck.
Currently I have only one IMAP account functioning in Mail and am attempting to get TO DO functionality going. At the moment I have the following setting:
Create Notes and ToDos : "On my mac"
My problem is that when i create a new todo or note relating to an email... I am not given any options as to which calendar to assign it to. I only get one option "calendar" (color:purple) in the drop down menu... which i think is being supplied by my IMAP email...
I would like to be able to see all my ical calendars and colors in order to better assign the To Dos to their respective categories..
Is there any way to add this functionality?
Thanks.
Jose

once you create one to do in mail.app on "on my mac" then go to ical and create other calendars you would like to set your to dos in, to dos that you create in mail.
you will notice that to dos created in mail are stored in different ical calendars than the to dos created in ical directly. the to dos created in ical directly are under icals under the "calendar" header in ical. to dos created in mail are in calendars under the header "on my mac" if created "on my mac" in mail or under the email account header in ical if created under an imap email account for example.
hope this helps

Workgroup Manager doesn't create home directories for OD accounts

I'm having an issue where home directories aren't created for OD accounts. My setup is as follows, the home directories are stored on the OD Master (the only Apple/OD/AD server on the network), and the home directory paths are filled as afp://192.168.1.254/Customers, fakeuser, /Users/Customers/fakeuser
This same pathing scheme works fine for local accounts, however for OD, clicking Create Home Directory and saving the account does nothing (no errors, nor folders created). If I ftp into said account, I wind up being directed to /Users (definitely not the expected behaviour)
I am deploying a web based upload system that I want to authenticate against OD users so as to share home folders and permissions with the ftp server, once I have this figured out I will be migrating a bunch of accounts to OD from local.

In addition to potential DNS issues, it sounds like you may be using the wrong procedure to define the users' home directories. You should never have to specify the paths manually; instead, define the share point ("Customers" in your case) to be automounted, and then it should automatically show up in the list of available home folder locations, with all the necessary paths predefined. Here's the full procedure:
1. Run Server Admin, and select: the server name in the sidebar -> File Sharing in the toolbar -> Volumes & Browse under that -> navigate to the /Customers folder in the column view.
2. Make sure the folder is being shared (with it selected, you should see an "Unshare" button near the top right of the window); if not share it with the Share Button (then Save the change).
3. Select the Share Point tab under the file browser (NOT the one above it), and select the Enable Automount checkbox. A dialog will open asking for the automount details; make sure the Directory is set to /LADPv3/127.0.0.1, Protocol to AFP, and Use for is User home folders and group folders. OK the dialog, and be sure to click Save to make the change take effect.
4. Run Workgroup Manager, and select Accounts in the toolbar -> Users (single person icon) tab under that -> some user account(s) you want to configure under that -> Home tab on the right.
5. Select (None) from the location list and click Save (this wipes out any current setting, so we can rebuild it correctly).
6. The Customers share point should be in the list of available locations (due to being configured for automount); select it, then click Create Home Now, and finally Save.

Creating Cost Elements for OBYC Accounts

Hi
We are implementing COPA and we have manufacturing scenario (MTS) also. Now i have created cost elements (with category as 1). Now its giving me error for CO object when i post any SD entry (at the time of PGI and releasing billing document to accounting) or MM entry (MIGO / MIRO). So please help me cost elements needs to be created for following accounts:
Price difference A/c
Rounding off A/c
Small difference A/c
If i do not create it as cost element, will it effect my COPA / Product costing / Cost center planning.
Please help

When your postings hit CO (COPA) from Billing the system is expecting the Real CO Object (e.g. Cost Centre, Internal Order, WBS, Profitabilit Segment etc) to be Profitability Segment.
The RWIN interface (program group that posts to FICO - includes COPA) is checking and finding that there are Cost Elements created for the 'account determination' (accounts determined in Billing) that have a Cost Element category of 1 and I assume that you have determined these postings should go to COPA. Thus the error.
For CE Cat 1 (Primary costs/cost-reducing revenues) the system expects a Cost Object that is not a Profitability Segment.
The solution is to not create them or to use CE Cat 11 or 12 which allows Prof Segment.
Take into account the fact that if you are using the Reconciliation Ledger then CE Cat 11 or 12 should be used (i.e. adding the REAL (not statistical) postings in COPA + Cost Centre Accounting + WBS + Internal Orders = FI P&L).
Please test the use of CE Cat 11 or 12. The problem is that if you have already posted to the old CE's you will need to create new ones as you can't change CE cat once posted to.
The Business Analyst Question would be: Where does the Business want to see the REAL postings of Price Difference, Rounding Off and Small Difference? In COPA (then see above explanation - I would assume the Business want it here) or in Cost Centres (adjust your config and use CE cat 1).
Hope this helps.

How to create global toolbar for some common operation like add, delete etc

Hi,
I want to create one global toolbar which contains buttons for common operations such as add, delete, modify etc.
I have one globl .jspx page and in its center facet, I am loading my each screen's .jsff page.
Now I want to create global toolbar on my .jspx page and when I click on toolbar's add button at that time it should call, currently loaded .jsff (loaded in center facet of .jspx page) backing bean's add method.
How can I get the instance of currently loaded .jsff backing bean in my toolbar's backing bean and also I need it with its current state( means whatever UI components have values I should be able to get it in my instance).
Regards,
Devang

Hi,
since page templates don't support method expression arguments there are two options I can imagine
- define a contract between the toolbar buttons and the availability of a managed bean available for the consumer page. If for example each page has a managed bean like <viewId>_toolbar then the Toolbar could reference exposed methods on this bean (which must be consistent)
- Another option is to have the page passing in the EL string to access the iterator to operate on as an attribute of the template you use. Then you create a ValueExpression from it and call it for the button action events that you point to the managed bean you deploy with the template

Is Mail good for imap accounts?

I don't know if it is my setup or what but I am experiencing a few deal breaker problems:
1. Mail seems brutally slow AND it seems to send my machine into a state of "powerwork" whilst performing basic tasks like selecting different folders.
2. I have an imap account and a .mac account. Selecting back and forth between the 2 inboxes, mail seems to need to sit and think (almost as if to reload the whole folder) just to bring back the mail contents and make the list visible.
I have been using entourage which works great. I wanted to De-microsoft my mac as I thought I'd get an intercompatibility boost by switching to Mail but it looks like I may be wrong? Should I abandon the idea and go back to entourage?
thanks!

1. Mail seems brutally slow AND it seems to send my machine into a state of "powerwork"...
You have something wrong because you shouldn't experience that.
Selecting back and forth between the 2 inboxes, mail seems to need to sit and think (almost as if to reload the whole folder) just to bring back the mail contents and make the list visible.
I typically just view the top level inbox so that it includes the contents of the inboxes of all my accounts.
If you use the '.Mac type' when defining your .Mac account in Mail, it is also an IMAP account.
Using an IMAP account means that the e-mail client must establish contact with the remote IMAP server before the inbox is shown. The inbox on the e-mail client is essentially a window into what is stored on the IMAP server's inbox.

Unable to create global variant for BEx query

Good Day BI Experts.
I would like to be able to provide some of my power users with the ability to create global variants to BEx queries executed using Analyzer. When they try to save a global variant now, they receive the message "You are not authorized to create variant name". Is there a generic role that can be assigned to the user for this? Or perhaps a PFCG setting to an existing role? I'm rather new at this, so details would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Casey

Hi.
Your users need to have create and change access for auth object S_RS_PARAM to create variants.
You can enforce a naming convention by maintaining the values of "tech name of variant" like Z*, according to your needs.
Regards
Jacob
P.S:
If you have a general role for report users, add the auth object to that one in PFCG if it's not already there. In the latter case, you might have to change the values, to let your users maitain things...

One inbox for all accounts

Can I use one inbox with an exchange account and an Imap account?

Not within the iPhone OS. You could forward one account to the other via the setting of that account.
