Email accounts maximum, domain names maximum

Re: Mac OS X Server v10.4 (10-client license)
Is there a limited number of email accounts that can be created, or domains names that can be served?

If the email accounts and domains are unaffected by
the 10-client limit, what are the limits for email
accounts and domains?
There is no exact answer to this question. You can have 100'000 accounts with little traffic, while 100 heavily used accounts could bring your server to its knees. It's a matter of configuration, hardware, bandwidth, etc.
Tell us what you plan to host on OS X Server and somebody will be able to give you a better answer.

Can I set up email with my domain name?

My domain name and the website is set up under GypsyOwlProductions.com with Adobe Muse CC. Can I set up email with my domain name like: [email protected] I would like customers to be able to email to me from outside the website. I have set up yahoo and gmail accounts for my business, and would like the mail from (exp) [email protected] be redirected to either my gmail or yahoo. is that possible?

HI,
If you have Free sites with creative cloud, then these sites do not allow you to host your email with BC. You can either upgrade your website to higher site plan, or chose one of the alternative email host, given in the following link
Business Catalyst Help | Creative Cloud Sites / Set up email
Do let me know if you have any question.

How to add additional email using second domain name?

BC is currently hosting wa-cs.com and we are using email address pointing to that domain. We added wolfeassociates.com domain name to the site and now want to setup emails with that domain name in addition to the wa-cs.com. This should be simple but the option to setup does not appear available.
Is there a solution? Thanks, Greg

Hi Greg,
When you create an email account on the main domain, and alias will automatically be created on the second domain as well. So, when you create [email protected], the system will automatically create an [email protected]
Email sent to either of the two addresses will end up in the same inbox.

Changing MobileMe Accounts for Domain Name

Need some verification on this procedure before I mess up my web page.
I have a Web site Domain Name with GoDaddy using my son's Mobileme account. I want to change the Domain name to my mobileme account.
My plan is to remove the domain name on my son's Personal Domain and then adding it to my Personal Domain on my Mobileme Account.
Is this all I have to do? No changes to the GoDaddy account?

I completed the switch from one MM account to the other with no problem. Just removed the site from one & added it to the other & everything worked great.

How do I set up Apple Mail so I can send email from my domain name?

Until now, I've used Gmail to collect and respond to mail from my website. How can I set up Apple to do this? Dummy version please! And thank you.

My domain is hosted. My host provides my account with so many permitted email accounts. My email account, therefore, is set up on my host as: first_name@domain_name.com. In Mail you configure the incoming and outgoing mail servers as provided by your hosting service. In my case they are: mail.domain_name.com. The email username is my email account - first_name@domain_name.com. Of course you would have a password to access your mail account. Your account should be an IMAP account.
Now, if you plan to use iCloud.com for your mail, then the setup requires the server addresses: iCloud- Mail server settings for email clients. Your email account is usually your Apple ID and password.

I have set up an iCloud email account in my name on my iPad and wish to set one up for my husband in his name. I can't seem to find how to do this. Am I only allowed one email address? If not can someone talk me through this. Thanks

I wish to set up an alias address on my iPad. My iCloud address has already been established and I can find no way to get into my account to add any alias.

You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser. This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622. Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account.
Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account. If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account. You can then turn on Mail to create the new account. Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

My wife made a purchase from my account to Itunes using her debit card and now my email account has her name as the owner. I can still get to my account, but her name is listed as the "owner." Any suggestions?

I need help getting my wife's name off as the owner of my ITunes/ICloud Account.

Mail doesn't recognize a domain name when composing an email

I was trying to email someone from a certain company/vendor, but I didn't remember the reps name.
I knew that their business name was in their domain name though, so I tried typing that into the To: field.
To my surprise, Mail didn't find anything.
Is there a way to turn this feature on, or else can I submit it as a feature request?
I realize that it's possible to use the search box to search for past emails containing a domain name, but this clearly is not my intention, I wanted to compose an email
Thanks

How to I get my host email at GoDaddy to work after I've changed the name servers to redirect my domain name that I purchased to my Business Catalyst Site?

I use a mac and I just recently changed my name servers with my purchased domain name at godaddy.com. As a result, I am no longer able to receive emails in my domain name's email address as I have to change some info with Adobe according to godaddy. They have sent me an email with all the info that needs to be changed and I was wondering if someone can walk me through it. Thanks! :-)

I guess, you have resolved the issue on your end.

Change name associated with a iCloud email account

I am trying to find out how to change a change name associated with a iCloud email account.
for example name displayed Robert with example [email protected] The name Robert is wrong I wish to correct it to David.
What is the process. I am using a MacBook with current OS X and Safari 8.0.3
Second question also dealing with iCloud email. I have tried to set up an account for my wife and every entry I have tried comes back with an error message illegal characters? What is not allowed?

Just open www.icloud.com, open "Mail", open "Preferences..." (in the lower left corner), then open the "Accounts" tab and here change your "Full Name".

Email at personal domain

I have my personal domain published with iWeb at www.mac.com. I would like to know if I can set up email with my domain name.
www.name@personal domain.com????

It is tricky but here is how I did it.
I use ENOM as a registrar (godaddy should offer the same service) With my registrar, I forward my [email protected] email to my .Mac account email. That is the easy part to figure out. Now all my email from [email protected] goes to my .Mac email account. They next step is to send mail from [email protected] To do this I modifed my .Mac account settings in entourage. I changed the email address to [email protected] and I changed my outgoing SMTP server to the one for my internet service provider (mail.charter.net) (mail.bellsouth.net), etc.
This makes your .Mac account a shell account it receives mail to itself and mail forwarded from [email protected] but it is not used to send mail back out. That is done by my ISP that doesn't require a secure connection from within its network
This would not work well for a roaming laptop or if ever wanted to sent mail from your .Mac email address but it works otherwise.

HT4436 How can I transfer my odl family pack email to new iCloud id? Or add a new email account (not an alias) to my main icloud id?

I had a family pack but now I am not able to reach my son's email account. How can I find and transfer it? Or how can I open a new email account for my son through my icloud id. Actually it seems as if there is an oprating email account under his name but e-we cannot receive any emails or cannot reach the account settings...

Each sub-account of a MobileMe Family Pack should have been individually migrated to iCloud before August 1st last. Assuming that you didn't do this, you should be able to reactivate the address (though not retrieve its previous contents) by signing in with it in System Preferences>iCloud and enabling Mail - your son should do this on his own Mac or his own user account if he is using your Mac. It's not clear whether he will be able to reactivate the @me.com version or only get an @icloud.com version. (It would be useful to know, when he tries it.)
If he did migrate the account to iCloud then signing in in the same way should retrieve the contents and the @me.com address should work.
Alternatively he can just create a new Apple ID (for which he will need a new non-Apple email address) if he doesn't already have one, and sign in with that, enabling Mail and choosing a new @icloud.com address.
You should note that in none of these cases does his account have anything to do with yours (there is no need for a Family Pack equivalent in iCloud as it's free at basic level).
You could add an email alias to your account, but it's not a good idea as it will mix his emails up with yours and he won't be able to detach it later.

Domain name changes when sent to external mail ids

Here's the problem...
We are sending PO's as pdf's to the vendor..
If the vendor domain name is vendor.com and mine is company.com.
SAP sends a mail
To [email protected] ;[email protected]
CC : [email protected]
When the mail reaches the vendor it shows as
To [email protected] ;[email protected]
CC : [email protected]
the domain name of person2 gets changed though person2 does get the mail...and when the purchase manager at the company looks at it in his inbox - it looks as it should be.
I checked SOST it shows the correct mail id.This is not specific to a particular domain occurs with all domains .
Has anyone encountered such a problem before.
Regards
Rani

Hello Navjot,
if you have some basis background you can check TCode SCOT there you can see if the mail connect for external mails is configured correctly. There shoud be at least a node for SMTP communication. If there is such node check that sending s not restricted to certain adresses. Furthermore you could check over the menu if the default domain is set properly.
Kind Regards

HELP: is it possible to have my own domain name forward to a .mac/iwebblog?

Just got a macbook pro last week. brand new to this/have no idea what i'm doing. want to get my own domain name. is it possible to buy a domain name ie
'Testing123.Com' and have it so that when i publish my blog on my .mac/iweb account, the domain name forwards/links to the .mac blog?
in other words, the .mac/iweb blog address is too long/convoluted...i want something catchier. so is it possible? please advise...would be eternally grateful. thanks so much,
Emily

Emily:
Yes, you can purchase a domain name and have it forwarded to your iWeb produced site. You'll need to buy the name first. GoDaddy.com seems to be a very popular site to purchase domain names.
Do you Twango?

HT4929 moving all email accounts to icloud

I currently have a master account. I have 5 email accounts with different names. How do I get all of the email accounts to move to iCloud?

The information which I have indicates (as does my subscription rate) that I have an individual account:
Account Details
Account Type
Individual
Subscription Start Date
Dec 25, 2010
Subscription End Date
Jun 30, 2012
Email-only Accounts
alinklater (Remove Account)
elinklater (Migrated to iCloud)
jlinklater88 (Remove Account)
vorsa (Remove Account)
Data Transfer
200 GB per month (Details)
As you can see, one offspring (currently studying in Italy) has managed to move to iCloud but I don't know how to move the other email only accounts.
I only use .Mac / mobile me / iCloud for email and iDisk for back up. If this whole process is not simple it might be better to save the subscription and go elsewhere.
