Group mail icloud

I can create groups os mail addresses in iCloud, however I cannot send mail to this group. These groups are treated as seperate address books. Why call them 'groups' if there is no group functionality what so ever to this feature?
Anyone with a workaround or is there a next version at hand that supports groups?

I do the following:
1. Send the email to yourself.
2. Put the group's email into the BCC field.
3. Click send.
The only thing that shows up to the recipients is your email twice.

  • Address book groups in icloud

    I have been a long time mac mail user and love it.  With iCould I cannot seem to access my address book groups like in mac mail.  Is there any way to send mail to these groups in icloud mail, like I can in mac mail.  The reson being is that my office has sbcglobal as our IT provider and it has glitches with mac mail.

    If you want to send a message to Apple, please submit it at:

    How do you send an email to a group in iCloud?  I can't find the group - only the individuals.

    Shootist007, I think Cdf15 wants each recipient to see his/her own email address.
    Cdf15, you can't quite do what you asked with Mail alone, but you can come close with a slight variant of what Shootist007 recommended. Just put a dummy address (perhars the sender's) in the To field and all recipient addresses in the Bcc field. That way, no recipient sees either the other recipients' addresses or their own.

  • Deleting multiple groups within icloud on my iphone

    I have 7 duplicate groups on my iphone and I want to delete the groups that are duplicates.  When logging onto the icloud site via my iMac, there is only one group listed so I can't delete the groups from there.  Please let me know how I correct the situation.  Thanks! 

    No, I'm talking about groups of contacts on the iphone.  So, when you are in the phone icon, tap on "contacts", on the top left there is a "group" tab, when I click on that there are seven groups under "icloud".  The first group under icloud is "All icloud".  That group has 1401 contacts.  There are 6 more groups under (5 labeled "Contacts" and 1 labeled "Card").  Each group labeled "Contacts" has 221 contacts and the one labeled "Card" has 296.  This equals the 1401 contacts in the "All icloud" group.  When I go into the "All icloud" group I have 6 duplicates on most of the entries.  I'm thinking if I can delete the 6 groups, it would correct the duplicates.  If I can go into "settings", then "Mail, Contacts, Calendars", under Accounts, my iCloud account has 6 total accounts. 
    I'm talking this out and maybe what I will do is "Delete Account" on iCloud (from my iphone).  When I click on that, it informs me "If you delete your account, all Photo Stream photos and documents stored in iCloud will be deleted from this iPhone.  So, if I do that and then reset with my iCloud account (that has the correct number of contacts (221), maybe I will only have one account on iCloud on my iPhone.  I will let you know. 
    Thanks pvonk for letting me talk this out and possibly solving the problem. 

  • Is it possible to install an SMTP proxy that will handle splitting group mail?

    I am running OS X 10.9.3 with Server 3.1.2 on a Mac-Mini Mid-2012. I learned on my last implementation of OS X 10.9.3 that Mavericks sometimes has issues with handling group mail.  As I rebuild my network, I am wondering if it is possible to install a SMTP proxy that can receive, process, then forward mail on to the primary mail server.
    For example, if mail is sent to a group account, this SMTP proxy would repackage the message as a message to a carbon copy list of all the group members, but if the mail is sent to a user account, the mail is forwarded unmodified.  Like this:
    As an alternative to this, I would also be interested a solution in which the Linux Mail Server referenced the Open Directory for account information, including password authentication, so that if a user in the Mac Network updates his password, that he can use the same password to access his mail on a webmail client or via the Mail.app.
    This is a callout for discussion points, ideas and recommendations. There is no problem here to fix necessarily.

    I am not aware of a tool to do the group splitting for you, this is normally the responsibility of the mail server itself.
    However with regards to your second query, a lot of people use a product called Kerio Connect instead of Apple's Mail server. Kerio can run on the same Mac server but in general is a far more powerful mail server. It does include the ability to authenticate user accounts against Open Directory.
    There is one issue you need to be aware of, like nearly all mail servers it uses the 'username' as the main email address, so if you want an email account of [email protected] then your Open Directory short name need to be jsmith, if you want your email address to be [email protected] then your user short name needs to be john.doe and so on.
    Note: While I have specifically talked about Kerio most other mail server including those for Linux would be able to link to Open Directory via LDAP and authenticate email accounts. The same link between email address and short name would usually apply.

    How to delete hundred of groups in icloud ?

    You will have to click each group and tap the delete key.  Unless you link your iCloud to a Mac where you may have different options in the Address Book or Contacts App, thats the only way.

  • How to create a group mailing list in JavaMail?

    Hello,
    I've been searching through the entire API, specifically the InternetAddress class and I can't seem to find out how to create a group/mailing list. Does anyone know how to do this?
    That is, I would like to be able to group a bunch of e-mail addresses together and give that group a name "my friends". Then send it off using this 'group mail address' as opposed to an array of InternetAddress[]. Then when the recipients receive the e-mail, they see "my friends" in the To: field, instead of everyone's e-mail address...
    Is this possible in JavaMail? I've tried many things like creating an InternetAddress object passing in a comma-delimited list of e-mail addresses but it doesn't like it.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi:
    I have the same problem. I've read JavaMail implements RFC 822 which allow mailing lists. But, �how can I implement it with JavaMail?
    Best regards,

  • I dont receive e-mails with attachment sent to OS X Server 3.0.1 Group-mailing lists

    I have a small company using a mac mini with mavericks and server 3.0.1.
    We are using most of the services available in OS X server (except DHCP, Netinstall and Xsan). One of the services we use the most is Mail server, and the whole company uses that as our primary mail server.
    We have set up several different Groups and activated group-mailing lists on some of them. The setup has been working very good for over a year (started using it with Mountain Lion Server).
    Recently I was going to send a christmas card to all employees using the workgroup mailing list. I was using the stationaries in Mail, and it was sent as normal but never recieved by me or any of the other employees. Below is the SMTP Log
    Dec  6 17:10:16 server.mydomain.com postfix/smtpd[29101]: connect from unknown[10.0.1.16 *<- my local IP address*]

    Dec  6 17:11:16 server.mydomain.com postfix/smtpd[29101]: disconnect from unknown[10.0.1.16 *<- my local IP address*]
    I did some trial and error and it seems like it is linked to the fact that I have attachments to the email. Sending an email with only text is recieved like normal. Even attacment like PDF or jpg is "blocked" it seems. I have tried using email outside my domain but still the same result. Sending the same email (with attachment) to all reciepients (not using the mailiing list) works and is recieved by everyone. I have turned off all email filtering settings on the server but still the same result.
    Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? My guess is that this is a Server 3.0.1 hickup, so it would be nice to get confirmation from others experiencing the same.

  • How to send group mail

    Hi all,
      We have a report prgm that will send a mail to SCOT to lotus notes.
    In lotus notes, we have a group mail (Example: SAP_TEAM). How we can send mails to the lotus notes group...?
    Thanks,
    J Kumar.

    Hi Jitendra,
             In SBWP you need to create a Distribution List to whom the mail has to be sent and in your program pass the Distribution list name with type 'B' in the receiver list of your mail sending program then all the members of that Distribution List will receive the mail.
             Hope this is what you were expecting for.
    Thanks,

  • Automator w/ Group Mailer Truncating Messages

    I am attempting to send out an email to every person in my Address Book who has an email. I created a smart group in Address Book and am using that to send my messages. I am going to be getting married and I would like to announce the dates when those are set. I am also having a child and would love to email everyone when it's time.
    I can get the people I need to get. The problem is the mail message gets shorter and shorter every time a new message is created eg:
    To:[email protected]
    Body: "Hey guess what.... Blah Blah Blah"
    To:[email protected]
    Body: " guess what.... Blah Blah Blah"
    To:[email protected]
    Body:" lah Blah"
    My workflow looks like this:
    1. New Message
    2. Find People whose group = has email
    3. Group Mailer
    4. Send Message

    Not sure why you would need to use Automator. Why not just send a single email out using the group as the addressee and hide the addresses?
    To send emails to a group and hide group member names and addresses when sending a message to a group created in Address Book do the following.
    1. Open Mail and choose Preferences from the Mail menu.
    2. Click Composing.
    3. Deselect the checkbox for "When sending to a group, show all member addresses" and close Mail Preferences.
    Then when you send an email to a group, only the group name will be seen.

  • All names appear in the group mails.  They didn't before.

    I used to be able to send group mail with just the title of the group appearing in the "To" window. Now, all the names in the group have to be there or it won't go out. Sometimes I don't want the names there.

  • Group Mailer error

    Hi
    I am trying to set up a workflow to simply send the same email newsletter to a group in the address book.
    The workflow looks like this:
    New mail message
    Find groups in Address Book
    Group Mailer
    Send outgoing messages
    Everything works until the Group mailer stage. The messages are created with the correct addresses and text but Group mailer encounters an error: AppleEvent handler failed. (430531728)
    This seemingly simple, time saving task is turning out to be neither.
    Anyone help?
    Thanks
    Chris

    it's a known bug in the Group mailer action. i don't know any workaround, sorry. the bug has been fixed in Snow leopard.

  • I just changed my apple password for iTunes.  Is it now the password for all apple related accounts, like mail, iCloud, etc.?

    When you change your Apple password, does the same password apply to itunes, mail, icloud etc. or do they all have separate passwords?

    It's the same account and password - iCloud, FaceTime, iMessage, Game Center, stores.
    You may need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated password so as to 'refresh' the account on it, and for Cloud.
    There is an 'Update your settings for devices and services that need your Apple ID password' section on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2446 (the page is about resetting a password, but the principle is the same)
