Default Email Addresses Picked From Address Book in Groups?

Many of the records in my address book have more than one email address. When I am sending an email to that individual I start to type their name and am presented with the various choices -- I believe the address I most recently used (or maybe most recently received from) is at the top.
But I just ran into some troubles.
I made a Group of people and want to send a mass email. But, unbeknown to me the email addresses seem to be picked as the first one on the address card.
Do you follow?
How do I create the groups so mass mailings go to the email specify?

  • OOPs the browser is blocking my loaded email address book - How do I fix this?

    Oops browser is blocking popups - error msg - comes up when I try to access my email address book.
    How do I stop this from happening?

    To turn off pop-up blocking for a site, you could try this (open the dialog using either of these):
    * right-click a page on the site > View Page Info > Permissions tab
    * while viewing the site: Tools menu > Page Info > Permissions tab
    Under Open Pop-up Windows, uncheck "Use Default" and click the bubble for "Allow", then close that dialog.
    Does it work?

  • How to set default email address for input

    G'day all
    Summary: I'm sick, it's difficult to type, and a combination of autocorrect, default Shift key settings for input fields and my iPad completely ignoring my default email account is making it laborious to input my email address. Help!
    (Edit: I had a micro-brainwave and checked my "Me" card in Contacts, since I have Safari set to autofill from that card. My default email address is not listed first in the card. I've now put it on top, Gmail second and "me.com" last. I'll comment later on if I see this help with point 3 below.)
    Details:
    I love my shiny new iPad2. I really do. But autocorrect is driving me crrrrrazy when I try to input my email address.
    Typing in general is an issue for me, because I am disabled and have difficulties with coordination and movement. On my laptop (MacBook Pro mid 2009), I used TextExpander. It lets you set an abbreviation for any text, so you can just type that abbreviation instead of the whole thing, and TextExpander automagically inputs the whole thing for you.
    I have a long email address, because my ISP has quite a long domain name. So only typing 4 characters (my abbreviation) instead of the whole 23 characters was a big help for me.
    Enter the iPad.
    I need to use the iPad now, because my laptop is now too heavy for my legs (and I do occasionally need a full-on laptop, so the MacBook Air isn't the solution). The iPad in general has been great for me. The simplification of the interface (while annoying at times, e.g. not being able to view full headers in an email) saves brain cycles, so I can read for longer.
    However, where on my laptop I only needed to input 4 chars for my email address, on my iPad I have to input the whole 23 chars. How many places online are you asked to input your email address? Way too many. Safari may eventually catch up and record some of them, but currrently, I'm using too much of my day's energy just on trying to input my email address. (Note: this post is written on my laptop, so I can use my abbreviations.)
    TextExpander is available for iOS, but due to Apple's current refusal to allow integration with its apps, TextExpander isn't allowed to input stuff directly. Just like with the indispensable password program 1Password, you have to switch from Safari to the other app., search for and select and copy the text you want, then switch back to Safari, select the field and press Paste.
    Grrr.
    I may get desperate enough to go through those steps each time, if things don't improve with my email address. My problems are:
    1. Very few email-address fields in webpages currently have the appropriate settings to instruct the iPad keyboard not to start with the Shift key down. This means every time you try to input your email address, it will start with an upper-case letter.
    Half the time I don't notice until I've got part-way through typing my address, so I have to delete all those chars and start again. About a quarter of the time, after deleting, I don't notice that the Shift key has been activated again, so I go through the whole process again.
    2. Even when the email-address field turns off the Shift key, or when I remember to do it myself before entering text, autocorrect will insist on changing the first letter back to upper-case, because my username is also my first name. Cue more deleting and getting confused.
    3. This is the big one: once my username is up there, autocorrect insists on entering my "me.com" email address. This is the email address I use least. When I laboriously (again) delete this text and start again, it will either insist again on "me.com", or input my Gmail address. That is the email address I use second least. Autocorrect never inputs my main email address, set as my default account in the Mail-Con-Cal Settings. (This is a POP-only account.)
    4. Even if I do manage to input my whole email address correctly, autocorrect will insist on capitalizing the first letter of the domain name (which is also a location). Cue yet more deletion and retyping.
    Are there any ways to avoid wasting so much energy on trying to input my email address?
    Is there any way to set the default input email address? Or to tell the iPad/Safari that an email address field doesn't require the Shift key?
    I've had my iPad for nearly three months now, using it for my day-to-day activities, and I've been hoping this problem would gradually go away, that the software would finally catch on to my main email address (from the default account) which I have input over and over (and OVER) into email-address fields.
    Evidently not.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    As Roosevelt suggested, you can turn off Auto Correction in the keyboard settings. Go to Settings>General>Keyboard>Auto Correction>Off.
    This will also turn off spell check (unfortunately) and there is no fix for that. Auto Caps can also be turned off as well and so can the keyboard shortcut for the space/period. Frankly, all of these features drive me nuts and I wish the iOS allowed for more control, but it does not.
    As fars as typing your email address, be aware that even if you type your email address in all caps it still works. So if Autofill insists on capitalizing the first letter in your name in the email address - and it will insist on doing so - you can just let it go as is and it will still work. Doesn't really get to the heart of the matter but it would save you the laborious deleting and retyping.
    Having said that, when the Auto Correction suggests a word or wants to set a capital latter, you can tap the "x" in the pop up suggestion to ignore that word, cap, whatever. The dictionary is then supposed to "learn" your word if you refuse that suggested word enough times. This is another feature that seems to have a mind of it's own at times since sometimes it may take more than a few attempts to get the Auto Correct to not come up and instead allow your chosen word to be freely typed as desired.
    Lastly, with regard to your correct email address popping up, that is another case of if repeated time and time again, It should be another case of the iOS "learning" through repetition that your default email should popup when you begin entering the address.
    You could try to rectify all of this by resetting all of your settings and clearing Autofill but you would be starting all over again which is something I think you would rather avoid.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Keyboard Dictionary
    Settings>Safari>Autofill -tap names and passwords>Clear all
    As Roosevelt suggested, submit feedback, and I hope you find some resolution to this.
    Quick Note - I originally typed this post on my iPad and when I read a few of the words that were substituted by auto correct - I quickly turned to my iMac to change the words. I do feel your pain with regard to auto Correct!

  • How can I change my default email address?

    I'm changing to a different ISP, but the default email address in TB is lodged with the old ISP. How can I change the default to one of my Gmail addresses?
    Thanks.

    From the menu bar select '''Tools-Account Settings'''
    Select the account to make the default.
    At the bottom of the account list is '''Account Actions-Set as Default'''
    No menu bar? Press the alt key.

  • I can sign into my email account where it goes to "Email Preview", it's stuck on that page. I cannot retrieve my emails, address book, etc. Why can't I get my email page?

    When I sign into my email account I am brought to the "Email Preview" page. When I click on "email", "address book" or any of the other files, it tries to connect. In the box at the top it says "connect, then Zimbra, then connect again. Then I am brought right back to the "Email Preview" page.
    I can't even open individual emails from this page. I am stuck on this page.
    Altho, I can sign out.

    How about '''View Entire Inbox''', does that work?

  • Why is one of my other email addresses trumping my default email address when I reply to emails?

    Good morning.
    I have several (4 different) email addresses imported into my imac mail program. I have gone through the settings and configured the program to best of my ability. I have set one email address as my default account. For some reason when I compose a new email message...the mail program will use one of my other email addresses (non-default email address) instead.  Do I have something set up incorrectly?
    Thanks
    Alex H.

    open up your mail preferences and in the composing section there is place to choose the default email address for composing new messages.
    if you have several email accts though whatever acct you're in replying to the message will always default as the reply from address since that is the address it was originally sent to.

  • How to set Default email address(TBU if email of approver is not available)

    Hi,
    We are using oracle purchasing (11.5.10). We have observed that whenever a requisition goes for approval, it goes to a definite email id, in case a member in the chain does not have the email specified in "Users". Can someone please assist where do we set this default email address?
    thanks
    abbas

    Actually the notification PO APPROVE PDF should error out (MAIL_STATUS as ERROR) as the email is not found. I am not exactly sure on how we can redirect but am sure that you can forward the notifications to a generic user account like testworkflow (this is typically done by DBA).
    If you are OK with customization of POAPPRV WF then try modifying the Notify Approver Business event to pick a generic email address when a fnd_user email address is not found.
    Keeping these things aside is it not a easy way to query for the null email id's in fnd_user and update them appropriately?

  • Cannot make default email address to work

    I have two email accounts configured into my iPad. One a pop account and the other gmail account. I have set the default email address to be from my pop account. Whenever I send out an email, even from a reply to my pop account address - the out going reply shows my gmail address, instead of the default pop account address. I have tried almost everything to get this to work properly - but just can't.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    cammot

    Try going to the default account Settings > Mail and delete the account you have specified as the default.
    Then Settings > Add account and reenter the information by hand. Make sure you enter the outgoing server information carfully, user information such as password, and then specify that as the default.
    When you enter the password, watch the characters as you type, they appear in plain text for a second or two before becoming dots.
    See if that helps.

    Well, SVHudson, what did you expect to get from your first post? There was no information at all, not even a question. We are not mind readers here.
    Why didn't you start with the information you are providing now, which, even though it is still not complete, at least gives a hint of what your problem is?

  • Why does my Verizon email address book use 'Nickname' as key sorting field ?

    I'm a new Verizon email user and have just created my Verizon email address book from my Microsoft Office Outlook  (not Outlook Express) Contacts file, using the TrueAssistant application that Verizon provides for folks moving to Verizon from another email ISP. Earlier, a  Verizon Tech Support chat-line staffer assured me  it was NOT possible to move my email contacts from Office to the Verizon address book; I guess he wasn't familiar with TrueAssistant.   :-( 
    The conversion seemed to go over fine, but when I then looked at my newly-created Verizon address book,  in every case  the last name of each contact was stored in the 'Nickname' field , and the first name was completely missing.  When I manually replaced some of the first names in their proper fields and removed the nicknames, the application didn't know what to do with the contact.
    Has anyone else had this problem in using TrueAssistant to move contacts from Outlook into Verzon's email address book?
     Is it  even possible to see both the first and last names in the display of the Contacts file (or any sub-Group)? And if so, how do I do it? I don't see any way to specify how I want to display t address book entries. Would appreciate some help. Thanks and Happy New Year!

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I've never used the TrueSwitch software, but I've never had to. You can export your contacts from Outlook, Outlook Express, etc. into a .csv file and import them directly to your verizon.net account. If you log into your verizon.net account and go to your contacts list there's an Import Contacts button.
    If you need any assistance with that process let me know, I can try to provide a step-by-step for your client.
    As for sorting by name, this functionality does not appear to be available in the "Basic Interface" of Verizon's webmail. Switching to the "Rich Interface" causes the name to be displayed in a Last, First format and sorting by name is an option.
    Hope this helps!

    It's possible that Outlook doesn't understand multiple contact vCards.
    If that's the case, use vCard Splitter:

  • I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have.

    I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have. When I go to ICal it asks for the username and password which I no longer have. The calendar is still on my phone (even though the email account is on my phone but doesn't work) Is there a way to copy my calendar to a different email address on my iphone? I have now set the default email account for the calendar to a current email address but I still can't figure out how to merge my iphone calendars, copy the iphone calendar to iCal, or save my iphone calendar to my mac. Also, I read in ITunes to check "sync to ICal" but my  ITunes under my iphone and info just says "Sync Calendars" which doesn't transfer it to iCal when I sync my phone.
