Export Mac Mail message list as XLS, Numbers, CSV file?

I'm wondering if there's a practical way to export the message list in my Mac Mail inbox as a spreadsheet (e.g., XLS, Numbers, CSV &c)? I figured there must be a file of this sort in my mail library somewhere, but wasn't sure where to look. Any ideas, shortcuts, quick & easy answers? Thanks!

export bookmarks to a file, open this file in safari and enter command+I. You can of course simply attach the file to your message.

Mac Mail Messages List Not Scrolling Down to Reveal New Emails

No, this is not a really huge deal but it's just annoying enough to warrant a question here - and it hasn't always operated this way so something must be going on.
My inbox is telling me I've received mail properly, and the messages are definitely there...but they remain hidden above the last message I read until I scroll up.
When I look at my message list, the last message I read is sitting at the top.
In order to view the new messages I have to scroll up manually to view them.
I haven't changed any settings or preferences so no help there, unfortunately.
Thank you for any help!

I'd suggest creating a new test user account from the system preferences. Log in, open Mail, enter your .Mac settings and see how it goes.
Alternatively, you can try to reset Mail.app by renaming (for backup purposes) the following files: (This will affect your other mailboxes as well!)
Preferences: your_name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
& Mail folder: your_name/Library/Mail/
Assuming a new Mail setup actually works, post back in case you need help on importing your old POP3 messages.
If not, I've no idea what to do... Your firewall should not affect .Mac behavior. (I got to admit, I don't particularly like Mail.app's buggy IMAP implementation.)
Good luck!

I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011

Good morning,
I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011. Please....

It is possible to do this without external tools, but it is a tremendous faff. See
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macoutlook/import-ema il-from-mail-to-outlook-2011/5e858173-e1f4-4adc-99d7-253cc467169d?page=2 for details.
The easiest way, however, is to use Mail Exporter Pro https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mail-exporter-pro/id675131616?mt=12 which will convert the email for you from one format to the other, and comes with an excellent manual.
A third possibility is to connect Apple Mail to an email account via IMAP (this doesn’t have to be your usual account, you can just create a Gmail account for the purpose) . Copy all the messages into it and they will be uploaded. Then connect Outlook 2011 to the same account, via IMAP again, and let the messages download, then copy them to wherever you want to keep them and disconnect from that account. This is slow but preserves the attributes of your email (e.g. read/unead) better than any other method.

HT201342 Where is the from field in a Mac mail message?

From an Apple information document:
You can send email from your @icloud.com address by following these instructions:
Begin composing a new email on the device of your choice.
Select the From: field in your message.
Choose your @icloud.com address from the list of addresses.
Compose your message and send it.

Hard Drive Crash and Mac Mail Messages

The 160GB hard drive in my 17" Mac Book Pro blew up. I was able to get all my files off before it would not reboot in any mode...except for my mac mail messages, which I forgot about until it was too late. I have logged on to the web and can see them there, but my question is, when I get my laptop back with a new blank hard drive and set up mac mail again, will it pull in my messages from the mac server, or will the server delete them (and then I lose them forever) when it doesn't see them on my laptop?

Setting up an email client with a new computer won't erase the copies of the email on the web; they are only deleted if you explicitly delete them, or if the client is set to use the POP protocol and the option to delete them on the server when they are transferred to the computer is chosen. If the IMAP protocol is used, the messages are not automatically downloaded to the computer upon receipt, and are available only on the web unless saved manually.

Embedding a hyperlink in a New Mac Mail message

I know about Edit -> Add Hyperlink. But I'm astonished that dragging a favicon from a browser into the text area of a new message just drags the "dead" text --- furthermore, under certain circumstances, if you select the dead text, then Edit Hyperlink, an old, stale, inappropriate URL may be still be in the Edit Hyperlink box.
This is a recipe for creating misleading/phishing links.
Am I missing something? Is there an easier way to get a live URL into a Mac Mail message?
Thanks .. cb

Gentoo, that does the trick nicely! A simple double click of the folder name does indeed bring up the text box for editing.
A big thank you for pointing that out, and i am sure there will be others wondering the same thing, so hopefully they will see your answer.
Sorry for delay in answering, i had not subscribed to the thread thinking that there was no way of doing it, so another thanks for sending me the pm letting me know you had answered.
Cheers,
Steve.

Apple Mail Message List Font in Mavericks

Hi all,
Is there a way to increase the size of the Apple Mail Message List Font in Mavericks when *NOT* in classic mode?
- the parameters seem to have no effect in this mode

Turns out that there is no way to change this unless uing the classic mailbox... We're stuck with the default setup on the new style.

Mavericks Mail Message List Font Chopped Off

Has anyone seen this?
After upgrading to Mavericks my friend now sees his Mail Message List rather limited. My question concerns the "From" text line and the "Subject" text line that appears chopped off in the screenshot shown above (I've blurred a portion of the addresses, and those messages really have "no content").
Any idea as to what would be causing this? The text font appears oversized and not in alignment with the date but I don't know how to fix it.
Thanks

Problem solved.
TinkerTool was installed and was configured with large text fonts. Changed font size back down to size 12 and everything now looks normal.

Does anyone know how to highlight text within a mac mail message?

Does anyone know how to highlight text within a mac mail message?

I can't find that option in Mac Mail's editor. You can use a more feature rich editor like OpenOffice or Pages to create your message. Then copy/paste into mail.

Quota limit reached? Delete Mac Mail messages?

I'm a bit confused (make that VERY confused). I keep getting this "Quota limit reached" message. Apple iPhone rep tells me that I have to start deleting my 25,000 Mac Mail messages.
Thing is, I don't have time to delete even half those messages. If I have to, I will but is there another easier way?
I don't really need Mac Mail on my iPhone anyway. I'd like to just delete it all together buy iPhone Apple rep said that I can't because it's synced?
I don't get it.
Please help! Whatever answer anyone gives me, please don't make it too "techie" --as in assuming I know more than I do.
BTW, I am still using 10.5.8 on m Mac Book Pro. Making an appointment today with Apple store to get this done. Can't do it myself as I have some tech glitches that may cause problems if I try to do do this--so I need professonal "Genius Bar" help.
Just thought I would add that in case it's relevant to this process.

Go to iCloud.com and click on mail. Then you can delete multiple messages quickly. All you have to do is hold your shift key and your up or down arrow keys to select multiple messages. If you have important ones, you can select up to those ones and delete the junk.
Or, you can buy iCloud storage. Which is 20 bucks for 10 gigabytes.

What is the Mail Message List Font in Yosemite?

I just upgraded to Yosemite. Love the features and functions. Not crazy about the new fonts but oh well.
I was messing around with the mail fonts and changed the mail message list font (I think it was previously listed as "Default System Font Regular". What is that? Is it Helvetica Neue 12?
Thanks!

Mail > Preferences > Fonts & Colors
This is the default set.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.
Both these situations have cropped up on my MacBook Pro since the last update.
Thanks for your help.

The 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.

Write the results script of results log pane to XLS or CSV file with VBA.

Hi,
How can I write the results script of results log pane to XLS or CSV file with VBA code or something? I tried so hard but i can't.
Thanks

MoGas,
This is actually not a trivial process. You need to use the results object and code it to write to your file (it is described in the help files).
e-Tester automatically saves the results log as a text file so you may just want to stick with that for simplicity.

Mail sees the number of .Mac mail messages, but not anything else about 'em

Pretty straight forward problem.
Mail says I have .Mac mail on all of my .Mac accounts yet when I click on them in Mail they cannot be seen in the list.
ALL SOFTWARE IS UP TO DATE/LATEST AVAILABLE.
Do ports have to be opened up for Mail to work? If so, how do people like me with five computers in their house each use Mail?
In the left pane under the INBOX, I see all of my accounts.
For one/my/main .Mac account, I hear the chime of NEW MAIL and see the red circle/dot with the number of new mails.
When I click on the .Mac account, the right/upper pane shows nothing - it is blank.
All of my other myriad of pop/imap accounts defined in the mail.app work perfectly well.
.Mac mail accounts.
email accounts from .Mac.
Family pack gives a person five accounts. I mentioned that so that it the fact it happens with all the subaccounts and all my computers would eliminate any individual account and any individual computer from being significantly different than any other typical setup and thus eliminate them from being the focus on any suggested fix.

I'd suggest creating a new test user account from the system preferences. Log in, open Mail, enter your .Mac settings and see how it goes.
Alternatively, you can try to reset Mail.app by renaming (for backup purposes) the following files: (This will affect your other mailboxes as well!)
Preferences: your_name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
& Mail folder: your_name/Library/Mail/

Good luck!
