Gmail exchange settings for Apple Mail?

I would like to use gmail's exchange server settings for quicker mail notifications on the iPhone, but unless I can configure Apple Mail for it as well, read status and such won't sync up. Is there any way to get it to work on the desktop?
Thanks.

Right. Sorry if I wasn't clear initially, but the replied to, etc., status is what I need to sync up. When the iPhone is configured to standard IMAP, that does work. I'll just have to leave it as-is if Apple Mail can't use those Exchange settings.

New SSL email settings for Apple Mail help please

I too received the Verizon email settings notification but when I turn on ssl and change the server ports for incoming and outgoing mail to the correct ports...I get a connection error... the mail server "incoming.verizon.net" is not responding. When I change back to the original settings, it connects just fine. Anybody else having issues with Apple Mail on a mobile device I.e. iPad, iPhone?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had the same problem setting up the new ports and SSL on an ipad. Restarting the ipad did not help. Turns out that the settings app needs to be turned off before incoming will work. For those that aren't familiar, double click the home button. All active apps will appear in a row across the bottom of the display. Press and hold any active app icon until they all start dancing and have a small red circle in the upper left corner with a minus sign in it. Release and then tap the app(s) you want to close.

Gmail settings with Apple Mail

Hello,
I have some problems in configuring the Gmail settings for Apple Mail.
Following the instructions on the Google site, under Settings->Mailbox rules I have first of all unchecked everything apart form junk. Please check the enclosed image where I show my Google mailbox settings (sorry it is in Italian but the order is the same as in the English version).
Please find below the folders view of my Apple mail following above configuration. As you can see, there are two trash folders, one on the Mac and one IMAP. But when I delete one message, it does not move in either two and it does remain on "all mail" folder.
I simply would like to make deleted messages move into a trash folder that I can empty when I need, in order to get rid of them.
Can anyone please advise, how to properly set Mail? Than you so much, daniele

I did try it recently and it worked for me. Did you type “recent:” in the User Name field or in the Email Address field? It should be in the User Name, which is what is used for logging in. The Email Address is used only to determine what should appear in the From header of messages sent from that account and is irrelevant otherwise...

Can't setup Gmail account - "Mail couldn't discover the account settings for the Mail server "

Since upgrading to Yosemite I can't add one of my gmail accounts.
It's my business domain which is hosted with GMAIL. It worked before the upgrade. Now adding the email address in 'internet accounts setup' I get the message "Can't setup Gmail account - "Mail couldn't discover the account settings for the Mail server "
Mail will not let me setup an email account directly in mail either.
There seems to be major problems with mail in this update.
Also SMTP keeps failing.
Yosemite is a disaster.

Try this. I saw this solution elsewhere on the boards here.
When setting up a business gmail account, something other than @gmail.com, when you try to add the account in Mail preferences, don't select Google as the account type. Choose, "Other." Fill out the name, email and password as usual. Worked great for me after having similar issues trying to get my business gmail account to work in Yosemite.

Can I copy emails between an IMAP account and an Exchange account, via Apple Mail client?

If I have an IMAP account configured in my Apple Mail client profile, and then I also add an Exchange 2010 Server account to that same profile, can I use the Apple Mail client to copy folders and messages from my IMAP account, into my mail store on the Exchange Server account?

Pop mail accounts must be set up to 'leave messages on the server'.
check this before using.
* Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
or
* menu icon > Options > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
select: 'leave messages on the server'
optional: select: 'for at most xx days' this will delete anything older than specified number of days select 'Until I delete them' when you delete an email it will be deleted off the server.
click on Ok to save settings.
Pop mail accounts only look at Inbox and download whatever has not been previously downloaded regardless of whether it has been read or not. They cannot access nor download from any other folder on the server.
If you wanted to download emails in other fodlers, you would have to move emails into the Inbox in order to download them and this may not be very practical in your situation.
What you can do is synchronize your IMAP folders to get a copy downloaded to your IMAP mail account.
Then go into 'offline' mode to stop any further synchronizing as synchronized folders do get updated.
MozBackup tool could now be used to backup the Profile as synchronising created mbox files which contain emails.
You can also do the following to get a copy outside of the IMAP mail account:
Create the same folders in 'Local Folders'.
Then right click on email and 'copy to' and select Local Folders and the folder you require.
Putting a copy in Local Folders means these emails are also on your computer and they are not influenced by anything you do in the IMAP folders.
You would need to backup emails in these folders.

2-Step Verification for Apple Mail on OS 10.7.5

Can someone verify if having 2-Step Apple ID verification work for Apple Mail? I use iCloud email but on my MacBook (OSX 10.7.5) Mail program, I can't access it. I tested my iCloud Account via Settings and it can't log in. I discovered that by turning off the 2-step verification it works normally on my MacBook.
I'm interested in switching back to 2-Step Verification but I'm worried it won't work again. I'd like to know if this is working now for OSX 10.7.5? I can't upgrade to a new OSX on my MacBook since it's an older model.

Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
imap.gmail.com
Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important Note
Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.

Problem with gmail not working with apple mail..

Hi,
i'm trying to set up a gmail account to the apple mail program on mac (still works in iphone and ipad). after many diffrent approaches,
i think i have all the right setnings. But i still cant connect to the google IMAP, both with or without SSL.

this is what i get:

What are the settings for yahoo mail?

Have problems receiving and sending mail.
What are the correct settings for yahoo mail?

It used to be that the free yahoo account did not give you IMAP access, only POP3 or webmail. However this may since have changed in view of the fact Google Gmail has offered free IMAP access for years.
I found the following article which may answer your questions.
http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=content&y=PROD_MAIL_MOBILE&locale=en_US&id=S LN3361&pir=AHBwS9dibUmrlB_KW6ZMhyaJeg.v4XZovbSYR.M5730pZVRvNgWxE.nZDLlazK4PlEeKf vsVKVTw3InF2BTBJ4_jWs0HtZO42gwyuFUU8WJY0WG4i5gFYtc96_iqfP1IpmWVOKGJN1a93bBUrlLyj SmkLEUA2t0nB6SgfOxv_lmafiJEBsv6VYVANICO9Lw5cTIGlODAaOSkRPaeaqXcZ1wjv3h3HNQtwC7gk 47flgw9a2x8AksnnZfvOZjd.JMBWL8D6j_2H89MNwSxG1r5ncOU1vrnG5NrdKeOhz2e8wHFAkHKykqlK moJF9UAOiUxj0I8ODl7AN1MiuAIB8X9gBos3CLh3r0CkOzObX7DMNR9iw8As1hEW1Yg3gO9IB7DG4zr.

Creation of a new Keychain Entry (Internet password) for Apple Mail

I am working on a Mail Assistant to set up a new Mail Account for Apple Mail.
My problem concerns the creation of the Keychain Entry for the POP Account with which Apple Mail is set up (by my custom Mail Assistant).
I am able to create a Keychain Entry with all relevant User Data, the Keychain Entry also appears to be valid (I ran the Keychain First Aid Tool to check it), but when I start the Apple Mail App, it does not recognise the created Keychain entry, but is asking me to enter the Password for the POP Account which I set up successfully.
Any help is appreciated for giving me a hint of how Apple Mail recognises or links respectively to its adherent Keychain Entry.
Thanks in advance
Thomas

Couple of things to try Theo...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

How would anyone here know the correct settings for your mail account?

I know this is the wrong forum but there isn't one for Apple Mail!

Hello all,
Forgive the slight mis-placement but.. I'm looking to move my Mail from my desktop Mac Pro to my Macbook Pro! Can anybody advise the best method that will maintain the current email archive and listings, thus being no change whatsoever once moved to the Macbook?

Not sure what you are talking about? If the post, which I did not see, was posted in this forum (Mail and Address Book) then it was the correct forum. Your saying there was no forum for Apple Mail would probably have not helped get a reply.
The correct and simplest method to move is to transplant both the com.apple.mail.plist file from Home/Library/Preferences and the Mail folder from Home/Library from the one Mac to the other.

In the iPhone, please explain the requirements in settings for Apple id, iPhone and iCloud

You can use 1 unified Apple ID for iTunes so you don't have to repurchase apps. That part is fine.
For iCLoud/iMessage/Facetime you should each have a unique ID so the 2 phones will be separate and you won't accidentally erase each other's content and overwrite settings, nor will you get the others messaages by mistake.
