E-mail addresses (not.mac) through Mail?

I have never figured out how to set up different a new Account. If you deselect .mac and then choose POP (?) or the other ones, it asks for an e-mail address. I thought Mail set you up with an e-mail address. Let's say my wife and I quit AOL . I know I have a .mac address on Mail, but could I get a new e-mail address for my wife through Mail. Thanks

Hello Dean.
The Mail.app or any email client such as the Mail.app does not automatically set you up with an email account or address.
The Mail.app is an email client only allowing for creating and accessing an email account that you obtain elsewhere such as from your ISP used for connecting to the internet or from an email account provider only such as a .Mac account provided by Apple.
You can access an AOL email account with the Mail.app by creating the account as an IMAP type account.
If you quit AOL and sign up with a different internet service provider, the new ISP will provide you an email account and the required settings for creating and accessing the account with the Mail.app.

Specific Gmail email address not getting through to iCloud email address

Hi,
As of this morning I am not receiving emails sent from my wife's Gmail account to my iCloud email address. However, I can receive Gmail sent from my account to my iCloud email. I can also receive email sent from my wife's gmx email address to my iCloud email address. So the problem seems to be with one specific Gmail address (as far as I am aware).
Any thoughts/help/advice would be much appreciated.

It seems to be a problem between Apple and Gmail mail servers. This issue is reported in many threads here and on google product forums.
Are you getting other emails from Gmail accounts? If not, then call Apple and report this: 800-275-2273
The more people that call, the more they become aware this is a widespread issue. They don't read these boards.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name. I have gone to the window pop-down to 'previous recipients' and deleted that addressee as well as all the email addresses it is assigning to that name. I have also deleted the account entirely from my address book. I have have run repair permissions and also full defrag in iDefrag. Still the problem persists. Any suggestions?

Hello CarolineLongEaton,
I noticed you posted this problem quite a while ago and wondered if you managed to have it fixed in an alternative way then posting here. It is too bad no one has posted a solution here. I have a similar problem and if you have had yours solved since this occurance how you accomplished it may help me with mine. I am interested to know what you have done about yours.
If you are interested in comparing the problems to see if your solution (if you have found one) might help me also then here is the link to the discussion.

If your problem has not been solved then I will comment here again if/when my issue is resolved as it may help you too. My hope here is that we may help each other. To quote you "all ideas gratefuly recieved". I hope your problem was resolved, ernestly for your sake and selfishly for mine also. I wish you and yours a great day!

Mail.app Different FROM ALIAS not full account change. NOT ".mac" HOW?!!

Hey there.
So I use forwarding aliases from various domains and have no interest in stopping this. Mail.app doesn't seem to have any way to switch the FROM address (not the replyto, but the actual from address) if you don't set up an entirely new account. I thought I could get around this by just setting up another account, however mail checks to see that the account logs in properly, and if it's the same account that you have another address set to it doesn't let you duplicate it cause it doesn't want to download the same mail twice every time or something. Of ourse I just wanted to tell it not to download the mail on the second account. Anyway, I need a way to have one account that's with my ISP [email protected] or whatever that I log into, but have like 5 others that it sends from [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] etc. but since all of these addresses forward to my main mail account I can't have a separate login for each of them.
I'm getting the impreassion that everyone who uses mail is just boxed in by the concepts handed to them, cause NO ONE seems to be talking about this issue. Unless I'm a complete idiot and am missing something obvious.
I found one other account of such a problem and the person also had a .mac account so everyone told him to just switch to always using the .mac account.
That's a totally unacceptable answer!
Anyway, I recently switched from Eudora which CAN do this with no problems. THe only problem is, eudora isn't integrated with address book, and more importantly, doesn't handle Japanese well.
If anyone can be of help I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

As if it wasn't doing this before.
Well, you're right that adding aliases to a mail account has no effect on the mail that's collected there, and that the statement you quoted is misleading. Problem is, that statement doesn't appear in the Mail Help's "Adding multiple email alias addresses to an account" article I was referring to, so I had no idea what were you talking about.
I've been able to find the article you've quoted in Apple's knowledge base:
Mac OS X: Using email aliases in Mail
I agree that the last part of this article is poorly written, but it's not in Mail Help, and it doesn't appear when typing alias in Mail Help's search box as I suggested.
I'm assuming all is well.
Let us know if that's not the case.

ICloud alias email address not receiving mail

MacBook Pro, OS X 10.7.5, Firefox 21.0, software current.
When I send an email from my Optonline email account within Mac Mail to an iCloud (recently set up) alias email account, it is not received at the online iCloud site. If I send an email to my primary Mac address, it shows up fine at iCloud email.
When I go to the iCloud site, I can send outgoing emails from all addresses which are received OK back at my MacBook Pro.
Using Safari does not change things.
Why are the emails to the alias address not showing up at iCloud.
Any ideas? Is there some set-up I need to toggle on, on another device (iPhone 4S and iPad Mini)?
Thanks,
Robby

OK I think I have this figured out here. Looks like a case of operator error on this end in the beginning. Sorry for all the detail below, but if it helps anyone I hope it is worth it.
1. Per suggestion of Carolyn Samit elsewhere, I went into Apple>System Preferences>Internet and Wireless>iCloud and deselected Mail and Notes. I then repeated the above, but toggled the Mail and Notes back on.
2. I sent another test message to my iCloud alias address, per the routine set out in the first post above, with a BCC back to me, which immediately appeared in the MacBook Pro Mail Inbox.
3. I left the Sent message in the Sent folder, and the BCC in the Inbox.
4. I then signed into iCloud and opened Mail.
5. Lo and Behold, my test message was in both the Sent folder and the Inbox in iCloud Mail.
Lesson to be learned from the different process I had used earlier -- iCloud mimics exactly what I had previously done on my MacBook Pro (which was not detailed above because it did not seem important at the time). Previously, after sending a test email, I immediately moved the Sent message into a special folder on the MacBook Pro, and also immediately moved the BCC copy in the Inbox into the same special folder in Mac Mail.
iCloud mimic'd these moves, so when I went there in the early stages of this process (after having already moved two emails into special folders on the laptop), there were no emails to be seen at iCloud.
This last time just now, I left the emails in my Inbox and Sent folders at the laptop, and they WERE in the corresponding folders at iCloud.
Now, to toggle off Mail and Notes in Apple System Preferences and see what happens?
Good night . .

HT4436 need to setup another icloud e-mail address on Mac...How is this done?

need to setup another icloud e-mail address on Mac...how is this done?..Thanks...

You can set up up to three 'email aliases' which are additional addresses which deliver into the same inbox as the main address. You do this on the iCloud website, not in Mail. Please see this page:

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
Thanks
MG

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

Windows Mail app in LAN-Network "e-mail address not available"

Hello,
I have a Problem with the Windows Mail app at Windows 8.1. Everything works normally at home, but when I try to update mails at university I get the message "e-mail address not available", but Hotmail works fine. I have four more addresses synced,
none of these is updated while I am logged in at university.
So when I start my computer, I have to log in in the University network via IE, there is also a timeout after an hour or so.
I have to go access my mails in the browser, but that is quite bothersome with four e-mail addresses.
Anyone who has an idea how to solve this?
UPDATE: OneDrive does also not sync. It says all Files are up to date, but there are not. If I try to download files via Onedrive App, I get the error message "Currently, the file can't be opened. An Error ocurred with OneDrive."

Hi,
How about your problem now? Is your Mail APP still works properly in your home? According to your description, it's should your School network problem. Is your IE enabled any network Proxy when you using it at school?

Import my addresses into mac mail via .csv file

i would like to import my addresses into mac mail.
i have my yahoo addresses saved on my desktp as a .csv file. can you tell me how to import these
thank you

You cannot import addresses into Mail. You must import them into Address Book for them to be available in Mail. Open Address Book, then Help > Address Book Help, and read the “Importing contacts into Address Book” article to see how this works.

Since update of my MAC my Notes no longer appear on my Mac but are still available through iCloud on my iPhone and iPad. How do I get my MAC to sync with the other devices as e'thing else has synced on my MAC through iCloud.

Since update of my Mac Book Pro my previously drafted Notes no longer appear on my Mac but are still available through iCloud on my iPhone and iPad. How do I get my Mac to sync with the other devices as e'thing else has synced on my MAC through iCloud. Also since the update Notes no longer appear as a folder in "Mail" but are now a distinct programme-is there any way of returning Notes to the Mail programme?

Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?
