Flags in Mail vs Outlook Flags

With the new Mail in Lion, I can flag my mail to be followed up, however there is no tick like in outlook to tick off a mail once it has been delt with. You can highlight mail that has been read or not, but i would still like to see a tick that i dont go back to the same old mail and read it again. Is there a solution for this?

n the support document at the link below, overstuffing is discussed, and you can assume the 2 GB limit applies equally to Leopard and Mail 3.x.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25812
The limit of 2 GB applies only to each mailbox, and not overall. In Mail, a mailbox is the basic level of folder, whether a standard mailbox such as Inbox, or one you create for archival purposes. My Mail folder and all mailboxes exceed 8 GB on both a Mac running Leopard and another Mac running Tiger - no issues on either.

Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 993
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
          •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 587
          •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

Cannot send mail from apple mail or outlook- HELP- tried everything on Google- nothing works!

Getting really disheartened after the thrill of getting a brand new iMac!
I cannot get my email to work on Apple Mail or Outlook (which I pay for) at all!
I can get the messages but not send any- and I have honestly tried EVERYTHING to get it to work- all port changes etcetc
Someone has mentioned you can change a smtp relay number which may be set to 0 as a default with Mac!
I have been a PC for years so I am not sure what to do here and there is no tutorial that makes any sense on google.
Someone please help me before I burst into flames!
This is a work account and not being able to send emails doesnt help me.
Ps- the email still works on old pc laptop and my android phone.
Thanks

OUtlook was already set as the mail client for FF, and is my operating system (XP)'s default mail programme. therefore problem not solved at all. what I get whenever I follow a link in a webpage to send an e-mail is a little pop up window asking me to sign in to gmail or open an account. any other suggestions?

How can I read my incoming emails in one folder?Like I do in Live mail and Outlook express.

Now we can only read emails in different folders if I am managing multiple email accounts.
It does not feel so comfortable as we use Live mail and Outlook express.

'''Unified Inbox for pop and Imap mail accounts:'''
If you use the Unified folder view, this will show an Inbox with all emails from all accounts, with sub folder Inboxes for the individual Inboxes for the various accounts. Then you can choose to view the collective Inbox or the individual Inbox.
This method can be chosen simply and quickly.
* View > folders > Unified
'''Setting up Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox.'''
Pop mail accounts can be set up to use a Global Inbox in Local Folders.
Imap mail accounts cannot be set up to use Global Inbox, but can use the Unified view.
To change Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox, you would need to move all emails into Local Folders Inbox.
Then change the settings for each pop mail account.
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the pop mail account
click on 'Advanced' button
select 'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders)
click on OK
You need to do this for each Pop mail account.
Then close Thunderbird. You must do this before downloading anything otherwise the emails may continue to go to the wrong Inbox.
Wait a few moments for Thunderbird to fully close and then restart Thunderbird.
Please read more info on global inbox here:

Can't send or receive mail from Outlook

just purchased a wireless router and hooked up recently. Can access the internet & outlook express but can't get my mail from outlook which is my main email account. Message says can't find exchange server. I can access Outlook from my laptop wirelessly at work but not at home.
Any suggestions?

checked the ip address of the computer when its connected to the router using the command promt.(example.....ip address: 192.168.1.100; Default Gateway:192.168.1.1).
Open an internet browser (ie, mozilla, netscape,etc.). Type at the address bar the default gateway (192.168.1.1). and you will see a username and password promt for your router. Leave the username blank and use admin for your password, if it doesn't work use the password you setup the router to..
Once you see the setup page.... you'll be at basic setup sub tab under setup. Look for MTU. Set it to MANUAL and LOWER IT TO 1300. Save the settings. Check your outlook if its working....If its Does't work do this
Go to Applications and Gaming tab.
Look for a port triggering sub tab. type it this way
Application NameTrigger Port RangeIncoming Port Range
application triggered range forwarded range
E-mai l25 ~ 25 113 ~ 113
forwarded range is equevalent to incoming port rage...
hope this will solve your concern....

Export Apple mail to Outlook 2011 for Mac

Hi everyone,
I don't like the serie Mail/iCal/Carnet d'adresses from Apple, reason why I bought Outlook 2011 for Mac.
I succeed transferring all my contacts to Outlook.
I try now to transfer all my mails with their categories to Outlook too but I don't succeed. I read some discussions on this forum but they are obsolete as they were with snowLeopard and Outlook 2011. Would someone have good news for me and find a way to transfer all the mails with their categories from Apple Mail to Outlook 2011 for Mac ?
It would be nice and to receive a positive answer.
Thank you for your help
Renée

INFORMATION on Emailchemy from another Forum
I’ve found a way in which you can import Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 on Mac OS X Lion.
The software I’m running is Mac OS X 10.7.2 on a 2011 MacBook Pro.
You need to purchase an app called Emailchemy. It’s 29.99 for an individual license, and 49.99 for a family license. There are enterprise versions available as well.
Once you run the app, you need to do the following:
1. Export all mailboxes from Apple Mail to your desktop (or any other suitable location on your computer). You do this by selecting the mailbox, and then clicking on “Mailbox”, and then “Export Mailbox”. Save the destination, and the file is saved automatically.
2. Then you open Emailchemy and do the following:
- click on “toolbox” in the bottom left hand corner
- click on the second box on the top left hand called “advanced email conversion”
- click on “add file”
- select the folder (s) you just exported from Apple Mail (e.g. Inbox.mbox)
Now here comes the trick
- select format “apple mail 1.0 in the format option at the bottom
- then 3 sub-folders will appear “info-p.list”, “mbox” and “table of contents”
Select “mbox”
- click on “convert” and choose a save file name. Choose the format “MBOX file (standard mbox)”
- click on save
And you then have a folder created which Outlook 2011 recognizes and can import.
I just imported all my Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 – it works really well too – the formatting, attachments, etc are all there!
Hope this helps.

Inline HTML + Inline Text + attachment all 3 in 1 mail in Outlook

Hello All,
I am trying to compose and send a mail using JavaMail library using which I can send a mail with
1) HTML in the body of the mail
and
2) 4 -5 line of text (along with HTML , not as alternative text)
and
3) an attachment (which will also be an HTML file )
Now here are the issues I am facing --
--> When I try to view above composed mail in Outlook it shows either the text or HTML depending on whichever i add first to the MimeMultipart object using addBodyPart(). I wish to view both in Outlook.
--> As I am attaching the same HTML file and displaying the same in body is there a way to do both using same file hence keeping the size of mail does not contain the size of HTML file only once , not twice .
here is the code I am trying to use . Any kind of advice or corrections would be greatly appreciated.
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("filename.html"));
        String tempStr;
        String finalStr="";
        while ((tempStr = in.readLine()) != null)
           finalStr= finalStr + tempStr+"\n" ;
        in.close();
        Multipart mp = new MimeMultipart();
        MimeBodyPart mbp1 = new MimeBodyPart();
        mbp1.setContent(finalStr, "text/html");
        mbp1.setDisposition(Part.INLINE);
        mp.addBodyPart(mbp1);
        MimeBodyPart mbp2 = new MimeBodyPart();
        mbp2.setContent("\n\nPlease open attachment if html not viewable in body\n\n","text/plain");
        mbp2.setDisposition(Part.INLINE);
        mp.addBodyPart(mbp2);
        String       attachfilename = "filename.html";
        MimeBodyPart mbp3           = new MimeBodyPart();
        DataSource   fds            = new FileDataSource(attachfilename);
        mbp3.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fds));
        mbp3.setFileName(attachfilename);
        mbp3.setHeader("Content-Type" , "text/plain");
        mp.addBodyPart(mbp3);
        message.setContent(mp);Thanks

Hello bshannon
As you said that "Different mailers will display the same content in different ways." i was wondering if any of the outlook will be able to display more than one mimebodypart(s) if a mail is sent using javamail or is Outlook suposed to show just one body part
I read this text on wikipedia for Outlook [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlook_Express]
"Handling of PGP/MIME signed messages
Outlook Express does not correctly handle MIME,[4] and will not display the body of signed messages inline. Users get a blank e-mail and two attachments (one of the message text and one of the signature) and therefore need to open an attachment to see the e-mail. If the email has been forwarded several times, users need to open attached email messages one inside the other multiple times till they reach the parent e-mail message. This bug has still not been rectified."
So does the above bug applies to the mails sent by JavaMail ?
Thanks

I WANT TO IMPORT MAIL FROM OUTLOOK TO TALKTALK

i want to direct mail from outlook to talktalk.

Do you mean Outlook, the application included with Microsoft Office, or Outlook Express, the application included with Windows XP, or Outlook.com, the new incarnation of Hotmail/Windows Live Mail?
Does talktalk have documentation on importing mail? Or on forwarding your old address to your new address?
I suspect Firefox is not at the center of the process in any case.

Create Hyperlink when sending mail via Outlook

Hi all,
I want to mail a hyperlink from within function module via outlook. Creating the hyperlink and starting function <new mail> in outlook works just fine. But when the document (word, pdf, etc.) contains blanks, the hyperlink gets interrupted.
For example:
h:\temp\word1.doc (this will work just fine).
h:\temp\word 1.doc (error when displaying hyperlink in body of new mail).
I know that sometimes on the internet blanks are displayed as %20. But how to insert this in an ABAP statement using CONCATENATE?
Best regards,
Micky.

Hi Micky,
Try using replace command... to replace SPACE with %20
Regards,
Raj
See the example below:
REPLACE
Basic form
REPLACE f WITH g INTO h.
Addition
... LENGTH len (length specification for field f )
Effect
Replaces the first occurrence of the contents of field f in field h with the contents of field g . All fields are handled in their defined length; this means that closing blanks are not ignored.
The return code value indicates whether the string f was found in h and replaced by g :
SY-SUBRC = 0 String replaced.
SY_SUBRC = 4 String not replaced.
Example
DATA FIELD(10).
MOVE 'ABCB' TO FIELD.
REPLACE 'B' WITH 'string' INTO FIELD.
returns:
FIELD = 'AstringCB', SY-SUBRC = 0

How to send a mail to outlook from iphone flex 4.5.1 app automatically..?

HI folks,
i have to send a mail to outlook for correpanding mailler id with out opeing outlook from my app(iphonoe flex 4.5.1 app.) with taking the input values what ever we have given as input those values has to be send to outlook while pressing submit button on that view....(i dont want to open outlook and user action on that).
Please help out on thsi issue..
Regards,
Madhu.

Hello Madhu,
The only way to send an email without opening a client is: using server-side mail objects invoked by your app.
This would be the workflow:
- your user fills in form data (subject, body, mail_to)
- your application sends form data to a server (via httpservice or webservice or AMF)
- the server takes care of sending the mail in a way that is transparent to your user
So: it is not possible to send emails without opening the iPhone client (I think by "outlook" you mean the "mail client" with an Exchange account) for security reasons. You wouldn't want any app to send mails without you pressing "Send" in a known interface.

Hi,
I suggest you can have a look in the example program BCS_EXAMPLE_1 for sending mail using the class CL_DOCUMENT_BCS.
Try for other example program also by searching with BCS_* in se38.
