Help: Apple Mail and Exchange - Internal/External servers issues

Hi, I'm new here... coming from the dummy pc world...
I am using Apple Mail in 10.7 connected to a MS Exchange 2007. I first configured the exchange account while out of the office (the firm is overseas), and had the server with the IP address and SSL at 443 port. Everything worked fine.
Then I went to the office for meetings and had to recofigured the whole enchilada (the IP address would not work as internal server while in the network). I input the internal server (a weird address "alm-srv06") and moved the IP address to the external server. It also worked fine.
But, when I came back (out of the office), the account is not working anymore. Obviously, the internal server doesn't work and the external server is not kicking in. I have even manually switched the servers, bringing the IP address to the internal server and keeping the wierd internal server address as the external server (so I can remember the config later on when I go back to the office overseas), but it is still not working...
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Apple Mail and Exchange Server

I have Apple mail with many accounts included two Exchange accounts. As soon as my MacBook Pro with ML goes into screensaver the exchange servers disconnects and the list of emails dissapear in the inbox. I need to restart Apple mail and then they are back. I need to to restart Apple mail several times daily. Any ideas or workaround?

Others at the same issues.
Here is the thread I was referring to. Hopefully you may find some solutions inside.

Apple Mail and Exchange Out of Office Not Working

Has anyone had issues with Yosemite Mail and setting Out of Office for Exchange 2010?
I can set Mail to send Out of Office replies but cannot change the scheduled dates from 2/12/1982, 10:00 AM. Even when I do set it, it does not seem to send the OOO notifications. I can set it just fine on my iPhone 6 and Mavericks Mail worked fine for setting the OOO.
I deleted my account several times and reset it and I can get all my Mail back just fine but OOO still doesn't work correctly. I wanted to try to change the server settings but Mail doesn't allow you to do that for auto connect Exchange accounts.
Because of this (and my concern with reported issues with updating meetings), I switched back to Outlook 2011 until these bugs get ironed out. This is too bad because I love the notifications feature for Apple's programs.
I'm running on a 2014 13" MacBook Pro.

Same issue here. I can see these error messages repeating when I'm trying to change the date.

Mail and Exchange 5.5 Server (Round 2) "Rejected Passwords"

Mail and Exchange 5.5 Server (Round 2) "Rejected Passwords"
This one is huge, as you may have seen in my other replies to Mail and Exchange Server, I have had this working for over a year no issues.
Every once in a while I get a user that I setup and all of the sudden their password on the Exchange (5.5) Mail server (running IMAP, OS X Mail app)
is REJECTED.
This is just no good, and still to me a Mystery.
Has anyone seen this?
It seems there is some corruption happening on the Exchange Server, with the users accounts, preferences, settings.
The one way to fix it, (that I have seen) and the Windows server guys hate this, but I say too bad, completely move the afftected User's Exchnage e-mail account to another Exchanage NT mail server (they have 6 old NT 4, Exch Servers), once that is done, Mac OS X Mail app connects fine and ha no more issue with Rejecting passwords.
Any feedback appreciated, thanks,
[email protected]

I think I have the same problem without Exchange involved. I have seven different email accounts and two of them are acting like you describe: changes like deleting doesn't reflect on other clients (like mobile phone email client and webmail).
This also happens with read emails showing up unread so that if the email is been read and deleted same message can appear as new and when that message is deleted I can see two separate items of that same email message.
Also all marks of reply, forward or flagged are gone when the email show up as new again.
My service provider said that updates to Mail.app have previously made some big changes to way how it acts with email servers and thought that Mail is misbehaving with my two email systems.
I am using IMAP protocol with all accounts.
Thanks for any info and help!

Apple Mail and return receipts

Hi,
Since Apple Mail and Calendar in Mountain Lion appear work seamlessly with Exchange, I've dropped Outlook in favor of the native Apple apps. But the one problem I have is return-receipts. Our voice-mail system at work emails me voicemail messages and uses the return-receipt to indicate I've seen the message. That works perfectly on my iPhone and it worked in Outlook. I can't find any preference in Apple Mail to turn the return-receipt functionality on. I've also googled and I get lots of hits on how to get Apple Mail to request receipts but nothing on how to get Apple Mail to respond. Does anyone know how I can enable that functionality?

Apple Mail and GoogleMail via IMAP

Disclaimer: Apple does not necessarily endorse any suggestions, solutions, or third-party software products that may be mentioned in the topic below. Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information. Apple does not guarantee that these links will be maintained or functional at any given time. Use the information below at your own discretion.
_*Apple Mail and GoogleMail via IMAP*_
As posts concerning the setup of Apple Mail for GoogleMail IMAP access become more frequent on Apple Discussions, I decided to collect some of the most asked-for info in one place. The following hints are intended to provide enough info for anyone who wants to get started with Google Mail IMAP and Mail.app.
As you might have noticed already, GoogleMail behaves differently from other IMAP accounts in some respects. One of the underlying reasons is its use of labels instead of folders (i.e. instead of moving messages to different folders – like e.g. Private and Work – in order to establish some order, rather there are labels tagged to the messages). Because of this a particular setup of Apple’s Mail client is required.
*Activating IMAP for Google Mail*
If you haven’t activated access via IMAP for Google Mail already, follow the instructions given by Google [here|http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77695&topic=13294]. It boils down to this:
1) Sign in to Gmail.
2) Click "Settings" at the top of any Gmail page,
3) click "Forwarding and POP/IMAP",
4) select "Enable IMAP".
5) Click "Save Changes".
*Creating a new account in Apple Mail*
To add a Google Mail IMAP account in Mail.app, go to File > Add Account. A wizard will open which prompts you to insert your Name, the eMail-address of the new account and the password. Don’t use the option for automatic configuration if it’s available. Info on what to type into the different fields can be obtained from Google [here|http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78799&topic=12814]. The most important are:
1) Incoming Server: imap.gmail.com, port 993 (using SSL)
2) Outgoing Server: smtp.gmail.com, port 465 or 587 (using SSL)
3) Your account name is your full email address including "@gmail.com" (without the quotation marks)
*Configuring the Google Mail account in Apple Mail*
After you have added your Google Mail IMAP account to Mail.app, you’ll find a section for Google Mail in Mail.app’s sidebar with subfolders like "All Mail" (which has in turn several subfolders) and folders for each label you created with GoogleMail. Now you have to configure the account properly. Despite what [Google recommends|http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892&topic=1281 4], I found the following settings to work best for me.
In the sidebar, navigate to the subfolders Trash/Sent/Drafts/Junk of "Google Mail" (the one with the white folder icon instead of a blue one) in turn and go to "Mailbox" menu > "Use this mailbox for..." > Trash/Sent/Drafts/Junk respectively. Afterwards these folders show up as subfolders to the main Trash/Sent/Drafts/Junk folders in the sidebar (and at the same time disappear from the GMail section). Among others this step is necessary because of Google Mail’s implementation of labels. E.g., as Google states [here|http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892&topic=12814]:
Messages that are deleted from an IMAP folder (...) only have that label removed and still exist in All Mail
So if you want to delete a message you have to set the option to "Use this mailbox for… Trash" as described above. Same applies to sent messages etc.
Furthermore, make sure every checkbox in Mail's Preferences > Accounts > GoogleMail > Behavior is checked . (Some will already and automatically be checked when you apply the option "Use this mailbox for..." as described above).
*Some basic troubleshooting tips*
1) If your counter for unread messages in Mail.app doesn’t refresh properly, go to "Mailbox" menu > "Sync all accounts".
2) If you have set up a Smart Mailbox in Mail e.g. for unread messages and every unread message of Google Mail shows up twice, then add the criterion "Message is not in mailbox" > "All Mail", and set the requirement for messages to comply with ALL conditions (instead of ANY). This is necessary because of every message there is a copy stored in All Mail.
I hope these info will be regarded as helpful by anyone who tries to get started with Google Mail and experiences some problems on the way.
The links given were accessible as of September, 3rd, 2008. The setup was tested on a MacBook with OS X 10.5.4 Leopard and Mail 3.4 (928/928.1).
Good computing.

Why are Apple Mail and Addressbook not listed?

In Support, neither Apple Mail nor Addressbook are listed on OS apps. And if you go to Feedback > Product Feedback, there are 31 apps listed, but Apple Mail and Addressbook are not listed there either. Mac OS X is, so you need to use that for these apps.
But I think the lack of listing is not so bad, but is indicative that Apple doesn't seem to embrace these apps the way it does it's other OSX built in apps. They are basically good apps. I use them as my default apps along with iCal in order to always be in sync with the latest OSX release/update. I used to use 3rd party PIM apps but then had to always wait until they released their update to be in sync with the latest Apple OS. After awhile I realized the smarter approach was to use Apple's software as much as possible since they will be designed to work with the latest OS upon the release of the latest OS.
But the built in apps: iCal, Addressbook and Apple Mail, while sufficient, are not full featured robust apps like their 3rd party competitors. I have to assume some this is financial since they are included in the OS where as 3rd party apps cost $40 and up, plus upgrade costs after a certain cycle lifespan.
Personally, I never want to use a calendar, contact manager or email 3rd party clent again so that I am fully in the Apple family with hardware and software all made to work together.
If the reason these type apps are not more robust is because Steven didn't feel we needed more, or because there are only so much design and programmng resources Apple can apply to essentially "free" apps, I would welcome a paid for "Pro" version of these apps to pay for more features.
Example: while iCal and Addressbook sync with all your devices, Apple Mail doesn't. Now that I have a new 2nd computer (MBP), I would REALLY love it if all my folders on the left column were identical on both my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
There are other feature requests I would make, and bet you would too.
I hope this is helpful to all and to Apple in terms of making their indigenous apps more robust for us, listing them in the OSX apps list in Support and Feedback and embrace them as signature Apple apps fully supported, developed and proud of.
Just my opinion.
Steven

Example: while iCal and Addressbook sync with all your devices, Apple Mail doesn't. Now that I have a new 2nd computer (MBP), I would REALLY love it if all my folders on the left column were identical on both my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
My Mail syncs, I don't know why yours doesn't. All the folders on the left of my Mail App are identical on all of my Macs and my iPhone.
In Support, neither Apple Mail nor Addressbook are listed on OS apps.
Granted, Contacts (No longer AddressBook) is not listed.

Apple Mail and Sent Messages

I have been having some issues with my iCloud email account and Mavericks. I wasn't sure if this was an iCloud issue or an issue with Apple Mail. It has to do with saving Sent messages. A couple of months ago, I had some issues with Mail. I deleted the com.apple.mail and com.apple.MailServiceAgent folders in ~Library/Containers and I deleted any plist files in Preferences. It worked for a couple months. Then, about two weeks ago, I noticed Sent emails were not be saved any where on my iMac.
So, I repeated the procedure and created Mail anew. It worked great for about a week. I always have the "save sent messages to server" option turned on. Then, one day I got some kind of message that a folder called "Sent" could not be created on the server. Looking at Mail, my Sent folder was completely gone. All of my previously saved messages in Sent were moved to the folder INBOXToDos.mbox/Sent Messages.
At first I thought iCloud itself was messed up. I logged into iCloud. There was no Sent mailbox, and there was no INBOXToDo mailbox. So, now I have no sent messages anywhere in iCloud. I sent an email from Safari in iCloud, and then, iCloud created the Sent mailbox.
Still, my Mavericks iMac will not save sent messages anywhere. I need help sorting this out and don't want to lose my previous sent messages even though they seem to be stored in some wonky folder.

Where is the Sent Messages folder listed? If it is not under MAILBOXES but in an IMAP folder, select it and go to Mailbox menu, Use this mailbox for>Sent.
It should disappear and sent messages then appear in the Sent folder.

Migrate Apple Mail and iTunes to a new Mac

A friend df mine has a macBook Pro 2009 and now has bought a MacBook Por Retina.
As the old AMcBook pro is full of problems on system level I offered to help him with th emigration of some of his old data to the new machine. iPhoto data is no problems as I know which files to copy but hesitate on Apple Mail and iTunes.
I read this extensive manual http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/ss/moving-apple-mail_4.htm#step-heading but it tells me also to copy the old keychain data, which is corrupt and even Key Chain First iAd can't solve.
Is it possible yo only copy Username/Library/Mail and the com.apple.mail.plist file in Username/LibraryPreferences ?
On iTunes I have want to follow theses steps to have his iPad and iPhone sync on the new Mac
1) Make sure that iTunes is not running on both Macs.
2) Disconnect your iPhone/iPod from both Macs.
3) Copy your iTunes folder: /Users/username/Music/iTunes
4) Copy your iPhone/iPod backups: /Users/username/Library/Application Support/MobileSync
5) Copy your iTunes configuration files: /Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes*
6) Open iTunes on your new Mac and verify that Applications and Ringtones appear.
7) Connect your iPhone/iPod to the new Mac and accept any new authorizations.
8) Use iTunes on your old Mac to de-authorize the computer.
Your help and advice is appreciated

Is it possible yo only copy Username/Library/Mail and the com.apple.mail.plist file in Username/LibraryPreferences ?
Yes. You'll need to reenter the passwords for the mail accounts.
Your iTunes plan looks good.

New IMAP account won't appear on Apple Mail and yet wipes server

I have a problem with Apple Mail and a new IMAP account I've created.
I have one IMAP account (mail@*.com) which works fine and then recently I created a second IMAP account on that same server (property@*.com). I copied the details from the server to Apple Mail and yet as soon as I set up the account on Apple Mail then the test mails I send vanish from the server and do not show up in Apple Mail. When I remove that account on my Apple Mail then I can send messages to via webmail which show up on the server again.
Similarly when I use Thunderbird as my mail client then the property@*.com IMAP mail shows up fine.
Is there some conflict with having two IMAP accounts from the same server? is there any way I can get round that - set up an alias to have my property mail hived off to a different account / or even folder?
I would appreciate help... although I notice that 4 out of 5 of my last posts didn't get answered...

It's a bad idea to post your email addresses - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Moderators to remove them.

Apple Mail and Google Apps (personal domain) - 554 554 Denied Mail Delivery Subsystem (Intermittent Failure)

Hello,
I am having problems with my Apple Mail and Google Apps and I don't know what to do. I have been using apple mail with google apps for a few months now with no complications. In the last week I have recieved a handful of messages from the Mail Delivery Subsystem citing error "554 554 Denied". I know that the emails I have tried to send to are real emails and are entered correctly. I tried to send directly from google apps to one of these people today and it worked so I assume the problem is with Apple Mail, or is intermittent. Adding to my frustration is that it works with some people and not with others so it's hard for me to see exactly what is causing the problem.
Any ideas?
I'll include a copy of one of the Mail Delivery Subsystem emails I recieved - excluding the email address and message body.
Thanks for your help!

Massive frustration with Apple Mail and POP accounts going offline

I love Apple mail. Best interface ever.
BUT... because of issues with Apple Mail, I've been forced to use Entourage.
I really want to use Apple Mail and hope someone here can help me with this.
I have two Yahoo business mail POP accounts that I need to have running for an online business I have. I keep Mail running all day and my .Mac IMAP account and a Comcast POP account stay up all the time.
But the two Yahoo accounts keep going offline. I get an Apple Mail message asking me to reenter my password. They won't stay up more than five minutes or so.
Over the course of a day, this is so irritating that, as I said, I've had to switch to Entourage, where the accounts stay connected all the time and work just fine.
I've scoured the forums here. Deleted .plists, added IP addresses, followed any suggestion that seemed plausible/ But no luck.
If Entourage works, Apple Mail, it seems to me, also should.
Can anyone help????

Speaking as one forced to use Entourage at work I can with confidence say in my case that they are different products serving different markets with different needs.
Apple did not drop the ball - the server is asking for re-authentication of a POP client. Any POP client should behave the same way. Yes, the client could just provide the credentials again, but it is safer to reequire the user to respond to the request.
That the request happens frequently is a function of the interrelationship between the DHCP lease life, client, and the mail host's response to new information.
Who is providing your DHCP lease?

Differences in Apple Mail and Entourage

I am running both Apple Mail and Entourage. I've noticed some differences I'd like to have someone explain to me. Both have accounts connected to Exchange.
1. Apple Mail can access the Exchange server from any internet connection. Entourage has to be on the same subnet in order to connect. Why is this happening?
2. I just rebooted my Exchange server and Entourage will send and receive but Mail will only send. What would cause that to happen?

Let me answer my question. Apple mail uses IMAP and Entourage uses OWA. That doesn't necessarily answer why Entourage can't access the server when off the subnet.
When rebooting the server the IMAP protocol was not automatically started which prevented Mail from receiving messages.

Apple Mail and IOS mail client's auto configuration

Good morning,
Does any kind of documentation exist, anywhere, of how Apple Mail and IOS does autodiscover (how they handle it) and which XML format does it require for non Exchange accounts to be autoconfigured (an IMAP account with SSL and SMTP SSL too?.
Best regards,

Good morning Eric,
Thank you so much for your answer. Básically the answer I'm trying to get is how to manage for autoconfigure Apple Mail and iOS Mail automatically with a not "so known" email provider such us Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, like can be Sarenet (www.sarenet.es). I mean which kind of info should an XML or DNS SRV record contain in order to achieve this goal?. My answer requirement is far more specific that yours. Anyway thanks a lot as said before .
Regards,
