Gmail Account in iMail - adding multiple exchange SMTP addresses to Gmail

Summary:  I am trying to use my Gmail to send messages through iMail from my other addresses that I have added to my Gmail account successfully.
Detail:
I currently have 5 email addresses, and the most recent one I created was my Gmail address.  Everything is working perfectly online with gmail and on my ipad - I can send and receive from each email address within my one email account, Gmail, BUT my computer is not happy.  I am still willing to work with iMail as I have always enjoyed using it, however it will not allow me to send out emails through my Gmail account using my two email addresses that happen to be Exchange emails.  My Pop and IMAP addresses that I have added to my Gmail account are fine and their SMTP addresses are working, but my two Exchange SMTP addresses are currently listed as "Offline" even though I have entered all the information that I think is correct, or is what I entered online in my Gmail account and they work perfectly fine there and also on my ipad.  I just can't seem to get them to work in iMail.  Everything else is synchronized and everything updates between my iMail, my iPad and the Gmail online account, and I have a feeling that it is just not possible to get the exchange accounts working on the iMail through Gmail.  The two emails I am working with here are university emails that have their own addresses, but run through Windows live.  So they are smtp.exchangelabs.com, but the actual domains are l.uky.edu and student.gsu.edu.  I have been working on this all day so please let me know if you are able to help me in this struggle.  I have also downloaded the Gmail notifier, so I will try it out, but I am still a fan of iMail.
Settings in iMail that are currently not working yet are working online with Gmail - in the account preferences under the advanced tab in iMail under the drop menu for SMTP outgoing server where it says "Edit SMTP server list" or something like that:
Server Name: smtp.exchangelabs.com
Advanced:
        Use Custom Port: 587
        SSL is NOT checked (it is TSL for my accounts)
        Authentication: Password
               username: <my entire email address at the domain>@student.gsu.edu
               password: <my password for that email address>

Yeah, this really stinks. The feature is definitely gone in iOS 4. I used it all the time in iPhone OS 3.x. You can still do it in Mail in OS X (the trick is to add extra the email addresses to your main email address, separated by commas. Those will then be available to reply with) but you can't on the iPhone. Even if you tell iTunes to sync your Mail Account info, it doesn't work.
That service seems like an interesting idea but 1) I don't want to send my mail to a third party, 2) I don't want to have to pay for what should be basic functionality, and 3) I shouldn't have to resort to a third-party for what appears to be a regression on Apple's part.

    Description: In my Organization, there can be a configuration error which might have resulted in multiple primary SMTP addresses to be assigned to a user. I want to get the list of these AD accounts which have multiple primary SMTP addresses

    Hi,
    You can use the PowerShell command given below to get the AD User name and primary smtp address in a OU,

  • Does iMail support multiple exchange accounts?

    I need to come up with a corporate solution solution for managing 2 inboxes hosted on separate untrusted domains but can't use Office 2011 for Mac because one of the exchange servers is still on 2003 with no plans to upgrade any time soon... help?

    Same thing happens to me.
    When I add a second exchange account, all of the mail (including folders) from the first account move into the second one. The first account that was added is empty. I have two other exchange accounts, but haven't dared to add them. For now, I deleted the second account and have just the one (that is used the most) setup in Mail.

  • In FF5, my 2 Gmail accounts log off randomly, then both tabs show same gmail 'name' asking to log back in, instead of 1 gmail name in 1 tab & the other gmail name in 2nd tab, as were originally logged in! Help, please..

    New Acer desktop, loaded FF5 yesterday. I keep personal & professional Gmail both open at same time (worked fine in earlier FF versions). Today, both Gmails log themselves off at random & ask for log-in. But then both tabs either show personal Gmail name or show profl Gmail name ! Also signs me out of Google Reader & Calendar (both logged in w/ personal Gmail account), then gives prof Gmail name to sign back in (which won't work, of course). HELP!

    instead of adding more to the already long post, I add via replying to myself:
    writing about the issue made some things more clear, so I looked and found this:
    http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/201 … 00474.html
    which looks like my issue.
    I went and tried - and a variation of it works.
    1.) I log out
    2.) GDM gets restarted - inittab method
    it gets restarted at VT8 - it was at VT7
    3.) I go to another VT - like VT1 - and log in as root
    4.) I find the pid of consolekit with:
    ps aux | grep console
    and kill it
    kill -9 <PID>
    5.) I restart GDM - which will be at VT7 now, as it should
    and then go back to VT1, because I'll be at the GDM-login screen at VT7 now...
    6.) I find and kill consolekit _again_
    7.) I can now switch to VT7 with GDM running and log in as it should be
    console-kit-daemon will be started _again_ automatically
    It seems it gets re-started at the wrong place - or with the wrong options
    I always see it running like:
    root 6439 0.0 0.3 17432 2768 ? Sl 17:18 0:00 /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon --no-daemon
    Maybe it is the "--no-daemon" option? Or that it should not be started by GDM but only afterwards, by the Gnome-session?
    ...or something else...
    It is not a solution really, since all this takes as much time as restarting the whole system, but without all the typing and killing and switching back and forth to consoles...but it works.
    What is happening here? Is this normal? Where could my misconfiguration be?
    Cheers

  • I am having trouble sending bulk emails (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account using group names created from my address book.  I use Mail on my I-Mac.  When I try to send out a bulk email, the message shows up that my server can't send them, etc.

    I am having trouble sending bulk emails from a Mail Group (less than 100 at a time) on my gmail account.  They come back saying the server can't recognize the data and try again with selected server or try later or edit message, all of which I have attempted a number of times, including re-booting the computer.  I am wondering if there is something wrong in my Address Book?  I have check Apple Preferences, and Mail Preferences and all seems in order.  I can send to any of the individual addresses, but not in a group.

  • Apple ID imposes its picture on gmail account. I can't change the picture in gmail.

    My apple ID has been set with a silly icon my friend has chosen when she was setting it up for me. Now the photo appears in my gmail mails, although my gmail chat still retained my old gmail profile picutre. However, like I say, when I sent/receive mails, my account is accompanied by the ridiculous icon.
    I have changed my icon on iCloud, disconnected gmail from my mac mail, even disconnected/removed the apple ID on my MAC and yet in my Gmail account the icon/photo still appears. How can I change that?

    SOLUTION
    All the three steps have to be done.
    Go in Gmail setting, seek the profile picture and change it
    Go into Gmail's Contact, seek your profile name and change the attached picture
    Clear the cache of each installed browser : file cache, cookies AND hosted apps data.

  • HT5361 How do I set up multiple gmail accounts in Mail without them sending from the wrong gmail address?

    I have Mail set up with three gmail-based email accounts. I have chronically had an issue with sending email from one address and having responses to that original email come in to the other gmail addresses. When I try to select which server to send from, all three gmail servers are never online or available at the same time - it's always just one.
    How do I get around this? My gmail-based accounts are for three distinct audiences, so I need them to function properly. I would rather be able to do this in Mail than by switching to internet-based email or using Outlook for Mac. At this point, I have had to stop using Mail and am just doing it through the internet. I have deleted all of my email accounts out of Mail, so nothing is currently set up in the application. Do I need to do anything to Mail to really wipe it clean before I start creating my accounts again?
    Thanks in advance for your input!

    After removing the account and reinstalling it. currently both send and receive are showing on my Mac Pro..  My MacBookPro s another issue ... even when I send email in that account from the MBP it "flashess" in the sent mail and then dissappears.  I modified my "smart folder" and included "sent mail" and that was of no use either.  When I first reloaded that account on the MBP this morning both sent and inbox mail showed ... but now nothing in the "sent" folder even though it is still showing on the MP and in the OWA account.
    Since the mail is clearly in the OWA account I assume this is an Apple mail issue and not a GoDaddy (server) issue ..

  • Multiple Gmail accounts in MacMail

    I have tried to find a solution all over the place, and couldn't find one anywhere...I was able to solve the problem, but since this seemed to be a fairly commonly asked question, without a good solution, I wanted to post this.
    My issue was that my wife and I both have separate Gmail accounts, but when she would use the Mac Mail program on our MBP, when she would send emails, it showed her name, but came from my Gmail account, and when people would respond to her emails, they would come to my email address.
    No amount of Google searching turned up a good answer, and so I kept digging, and managed to stumble on this by myself...
    The issue is that according to MacMail, you are using the same outgoing Gmail smtp server, so you need to differentiate the two.
    Go to Mail > Preferences
    In your accounts, click the drop down that has Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), and click "Edit SMTP Server List...".
    When that window comes up, you'll see two different entries for Gmail, with the same outbound SMTP. Click on them individually, and you'll see the different Gmail account credentials. Change the description of each (I changed mine to my and my wife's names, to easily identify which SMTP went with which mail account) and ensure that your Gmail credentials are accurate. Click OK.
    Now, under each of the Gmail accounts, change the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) drop down to match each of your Gmail accounts, and click the "Use only this server" box.
    That should fix your issue!
    Nick

    Thanks! I actually stumbled on this by guess-and-check just the other day.  Mails are finally being sent from the correct email addresses, even with both mailboxes configured, the outgoing mail was always sent "on behalf of" the email I was trying to avoid using.
    However, some downsides-
    1. Setup with 2-step verification is pretty elaborate...I had to enter my true password for each separate Gmail account, which worked for a few minutes, then BOTH stopped working and gave a credentials error.  I had to go back and enter "app-generated" passwords for BOTH accounts, and verify both with codes on my phone. I will not enjoy doing that again
    2.  I get two notifications for every email now. Not sure why this occurs since I only added "outgoing" email servers, however when I open "connection doctor" I notice both the incoming and outgoing servers appear listed as separate accounts.  That is, for three email addresses it shows 6 entries.
    If anyone has a troubleshot for this double-notification, please reply.

  • How can I manage my icloud mail account on my iPad since my apple id user is my gmail account?

    Hello,
    I'm unable to send and receive mails from my icloud account since when when trying to add this mailbox to my account IOS pops a message that says the my gmail account is already added.
    My apple user ID is my gmail account, could this be the problem?
    How can I be able to manage my icloud account in my iPad?
    Regards,
    DM

    Let's try deleting the iCloud account from your iPad, then adding it back.
    If you have any photo stream photos on your iPad, save them to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream alburm, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  The force close the Mail app by double-tapping the home button, locating Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold Mail until it wiggles, tap to close it, then tap the home button agian.
    Then to delete the iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted.  This only deletes the account and your iPad data from your iPad, not from iCloud.  Then go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in and turn on your sync settings, confirming that Mail is set to On.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your iPad after a brief delay as it redownloads.  Open Mail and see if your iCloud account is there now.

  • How do I add a Gmail account to my Mail program

    Hi
    Until now, I have only had @verizon.net email accounts. I now how a @gmail.com email account
    I don't know how to configure my Mail program so I can receive gmail to my computer, and not have to get it using a Browser.
    I have attended to configure, but it does not work: I get the following:
    For Incomgin Mail Server I use:
    mail.gmail.com
    I get this response:
    The POP server “mail.gmail.com” is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the “Incoming Mail Server” field. If it still doesn’t respond, the server might be temporarily unavailable.

    First off Gmail supports "imap" which will allow you to keep your computer Mail app, and gmail account in sync. I would suggest you setting gmail up for imap instead of POP.
    1. Open Mail go to preferences, select Accounts.
    2. In the account window in the left pane "Accounts" press the "+" button at the bottom to add a new account.
    3. An Account window will appear asking for information, select IMAP for account type, Description put what ever you wish such as "Gmail IMAP" or if you are going to have more that one accunt fro gmail the "User Gmail IMAP", Enter your Name, and your new Gmail address ex. "[email protected]".
    4. Enter the information for incoming mail. In the incoming mail server box type: imap.gmail.com, Your user name should appear in the User Name box automatically if it is incorrect the correct it, enter your password that you use to access the mail from the web with gmail. Then press Continue.
    If all the info is correct it will let you continue, as mail at that point actually goes out to that gmail server and attempts a login with that account and password, if it fails at this point then some info like your user name and password are incorrect. If it all goes well go to step 5.
    5. The next screen will be the Outgoing mail, in the Outgoing mail server: box type: smtp.gmail.com, select authentication and put in your username and password for that account like you did on the prev step. Then press continue. Mail will again go out to that server and attempt a log in to very the information. If all goes well then mail will come back with an account summary window, you can then press continue.
    That should do it, if it doesn't work post back.

  • Having Issues with More than 1 Gmail account in Mail

    I successfully added my 2 Gmail accounts to Mail in OS X and only one account required an "application-specific password", which was actually extremely easy to figure out. The other Gmail account that I added, it accepted the regular password I would use if accessing this Gmail account from any web browser. The problem lies in the fact that for the account that required the "application-specific password" allows me to select all options to Sync (ie. Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Messages, and Notes). However, the account that only required my regular password will only allow me to select "Calendars" and " Messages". If I click "Mail" or any of the other unchecked options, they immediately uncheck themselves. Any I totally overlooking something or can anyone possibly help me out?

    mea culpa!
    I forgot to change the description for the second (new) IMAP account.
    Regards Dave
