How can I set priority on an individual email in my inbox?

I have the Priority column open in Thunderbird, but I can't set the priority. How can I do this?

'Tools' > 'Message filters'
* click on 'New'
* give filter a name
Apply filter filter when:
* select: 'Manually Run'
* Select: 'Getting new mail'
if you want to check for and remove junk first.
* select: 'filter after junk classification',
If there is only one condition or if you want to use more conditions that say 'A' AND 'B' must occur.
* select 'Match all of the following'
If there is more than one condition or if you want to use two more conditions that say 'A' OR 'B' must occur.
* select 'Match any of the following'
you will need to work out what condition(s) need to be met, such as:
example:
'FROM' and 'IS' and 'email address'
to set another condition click on the small +
Perform this action:
'Set Priority to' and 'Highest'
* click on OK to save the filter.
* make sure it is enabled.
Message filters run in the order listed. So you need to make sure that you do not have another filter positioned above that filter which could filter emails before the second filter can work.

How can I set up auto respond for email

How can I set up auto respond for email?

Hey there jimmac169,
It sounds like you want to have the Mail app automatically reply to emails that come in. You can do this in the app itself, but in order for the function to work, Mail needs to be open. Take a look at this info from the following article:
Mail (Yosemite): Reply to, forward, or redirect messages
Automatically reply to or forward messages
Mail must be open before it can automatically forward or reply to messages. If you want to send automatic replies when Mail isn’t open—like when you’re on vacation—check with the provider of your email account.
Choose Mail > Preferences, then click Rules.
Click Add Rule, then type a name for the rule.
Indicate whether any or all of the conditions must be true for the rule to be applied.
Set the conditions that determine which messages to automatically reply to or forward.
Choose options from the “Perform the following actions” pop-up menu.
Forward messages: Choose Forward Message from the first pop-up menu, then enter the email addresses where you want to receive the forwarded messages. Click Message, then enter any text you want to include with the forwarded message. For example, you could explain that you’re automatically forwarding messages.
Reply to messages: Choose “Reply to Message” from the first pop-up menu, click “Reply message text,” then enter your reply. Mail includes the full text of the original message in your reply.
Click OK.
Carefully consider the rules you create. If they’re too broad, messages can be sent inadvertently or create loops (replies to replies you sent). If possible, test the rules.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

How Can I set up Thunderbird for multiple email addresses

I am using Eudora 7 to handle 6 email accounts on a Windows XP SP3 machine. I want to install Thunderbird on the same machine and import the email addresses. I have Eudora setup to store the data files for each email address in a different data directory. This allows me to have a different icon on the desktop for each email account. Clicking on an icon starts Eudora with the email address data stored in a specific directory.
What I don't know is how to have Thunderbird import the different email addresses from Eudora to Thunderbird and how to keep the individual email address data separate in Thunderbird.
Any help would be appreciated.

I never used Eudora, so I can't tell much about it. In any case, I believe it's dead.
Wrt multiple accounts in Thunderbird, there isn't much you can do wrong. Simply run the new account wizard and set-up the accounts you want (one at a time).
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatic-account-configuration
If any of your accounts are POP ones, make sure not to enable Global Inbox to keep them separate.

How can I set up a "receive only" email account in Outlook 2010

I have an Outlook 2010 email account that receives emails from a "Fax-to email" service, and I'd like to make that accout "Receive Only". Is it possible to do that, and if so, how.
Capt. Dinosaur

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, to set up a
“Receive Only”email account in Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
You have a few options available to you. You can set up the account with
a fake SMTP server name and configure the Send/Receive group to not send mail from this account, or you can use a different, valid account for the Outgoing server, just in case you accidentally use the wrong account when you compose a message.
First, create the account in Outlook: -
Fill the name and address fields with the desired information. Select
POP3 account type and enter the incoming server name.
In the Outgoing server field, type
nomail.
Enter the correct username and password for the incoming mail account.
If you want to verify the incoming server is correctly configured, click on
Test Account Settings, and then choose the dialog after the incoming server is verified.
Deselect the option to
Automatically test account settings when the Next is clicked.
Click on the
Finish to return to Outlook.
Because Outlook will error on every manual send and receive when it can not find the outgoing server error, you need to change the
Send and Receive Settings for this account.
Press
Ctrl+Alt+A to open the Send/Receive Settings dialog. (or you can go to
Send/Receive tab, Send/Receive Groups and select Define Send/Receive Groups.
Click the
Edit button.
Select the receive-only account, then deselect
Send Mail Items.
Click on the
OK, then Close to return to Outlook.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

How can I set TB to auto delete emails after a certain period of time?

I have two email accounts set up in TB.. I am using TB 24.5.0, and one of the email accounts is a Gmail account, and the other is a Microsoft Exchange account with a domain I own running through Office 365. I suppose technically TB looks at that account like an IMAP, although it is not an IMAP per se.
In any event, I am coming to TB new from using Outlook 2010 and 2013. I would like to figure out a way to create rules for each of the email accounts that would automatically delete emails from my inbox after they are a certain age. I would also like to determine how I can establish a retention policy for emails I know I want to keep beyond their automatic purge time frame.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

This only works with IMAP accounts.
Tools (Alt-T) - Account Settings<br>
Select your account - Synchronization and Storage
Make sure to move any messages you want to keep to the Local Folders account prior to making changes. Local Folders should be set to keep messages forever.<br>
Note, this is a manual step.

How can i create a hyperlink to individual emails?

I would like to be able to create a hyperlink to click through to individualk emails. I plan on creating a simple database in Excel and would like to be able to instantly access individual emails. I have done this in the past with files stored on my harddrive. It's a really useful way of managing thousands of emails.
Thanks!
Nick

thanks 'a brody' - i have found MailTags as a 3rd part app which may do the trick. in the past i have resorted to saving pdf print outs of mails to a hard drive and then using a hyperlink to the file. it just doesn't seem very elegant (this solution can be useful where i then share the database with colleagues using the same networked drive).
i can't imagine i'm the only person trying to categorise and track leads - perhaps i need to bite the bullet and source a really good CRM app?

TS3899 How can I get rid of a wrong email count on inbox?

I have set up my BT email account in settings, and it works fine. Except that although the inbox if empty there's a constant icon on the home screen showing 13 emails in the box. I can't get rid of this, even though I have set up the email twice now. What's going on and how can I get rid of the score when the box is empty? It just counts up from 13. (ipad mini)

Thanks.
I tried that, waited for the Apple to appear. But when the home screen appeared - just the same. So I deleted the account (bt internet). Re-set as before. Then set up the account again. still have 13 emails showing and nothing in the in box. Annoying. I think this is because I delete some (13?) emails from the online access to the inbox (on a laptop) but it's out of synch with the ipad. Neither account has any emails but the ipad thinks it's got 13 I have deleted. But they are not there!!!
Thanks anyway.

How can I set the submit button to email only certain pages of the pdf not the entire pdf?

We have a pdf that is a hundred pages or so where each page is an individual product that the customer can select for purchase. At the end of the pdf is an order form. We want to be able to email just the few pages which are the form as a pdf. The default function of the submit button is to email back the entire pdf. As there any way to just select whcih pages would be submitted?

The problem is for people not using an email client like Outlook. In the version of Reader my boss was using, you had to save the FDF file to your hard disk and then open your browser to go to your web based email and write an email and attach the file. In the newest version of Reader it will open a browser window and create a draft for you, but he thought it was to much work if people were using older versions of Reader. He was really looking for something straightforward where all they had to do is push a button and it was submitted.

How can i set up a different security email?

i cannot get into the one that is already set up?

Joe's solution is right if you want to send from your work mail address as well as get the reply there.
If you want to send from your home address and request replies to your work address, set a Reply-To address. You can activate a Reply-To field in the header of new mail by selecting "Reply-To Address Field" in the pull-down menu near the headers:
The little button with three lines and a triangle is the pull-down menu I mean.

How can I set my iPhone to show email messages sent from my desktop?

Using iPhone 5, are there setting that I'm missing to allow me to see sent messages from my desktop Mac on my iPhone?

So to be clear, when you are looking at the Mailboxes side bar, you are tapping through to the email address in the ACCOUNTS section (below INBOXES), then to the Sent folder. Correct?
If yes, is there perhaps more than one Sent folder? Maybe one called Sent and another called Sent (IMAP) or something similar? Maybe take a look at that long list of folders to be sure you looking in the correct one.
If that does't work, then do as I suggested and delete the account and add it again as new.

The default priority setting in Mail is set to "normal" and is causing emails I send to be sent with red priority flag. How can I set default priority to low = no flag?

The default priority setting in Mail is set to "normal" and is causing emails I send to be sent with red priority flag.
I have found the flags to reduce the priorty level manually to "low Priorty", but how can I set default priority to low = no flag?
Thank you for advising,

Try deleting the .plist.
Quit the application.
In Finder hold down the option/alt key while selecting the Go menu item. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
If you want to make your user library permanently visible, run the below command in Applications/Terminal.
chflags nohidden ~/Library/
You will need to do that after any updates.

How can i set the alternating colors for a table rows

Dear All,
Please any one help me how can i set the Alternating colors for Table Rows.
i created a theam there i set the background alternating color to brown and i set the table design properity to alternating. but it is not reflecting.

Hi,
The design property in Table properties should work for your requirement. Select "alternating" value for design.
Please see the API below:
design
Determines the appearance of the table. The property design can take the following values and is represented by enumeration type WDTableDesign.
alternating - The table rows are displayed alternately in a different color.
standard - The table background has one color. The individual table rows are displayed with grid net lines.
transparent - The table background is transparent. The individual table rows are displayed without grid net lines.
Check whether you have changed the right property or not? Also table should contain more than one rows to test this scenario.
Regards,
Jaya.

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?
I have created other rules to move some of my daily messages into specific folders and I don't wish to auto-delete those.
Just the general stuff that keeps piling up in my me.com main email box. Mail such as FB announcements and other low priority stuff I want to look at before deleting but don't want to keep longer than a week or month.
TIA
thokitts

Thanks, but I am looking for a more automated solution than hand marking emails as junk. I might as well move them to the trash myself.
Again, these are emails I want to receive and quickly read, but not keep longer than a week or month or so. By setting a rule to toss any older than 30 days back then my Mail program (and thus my hard drive) won't be wasting so much space. For example, currently I have over 6000 read messages, with their attachments, in my main email box. I'd rather not have to physically attend to sorting the one I don't want out.
The one I do keep for other reasons get moved into other folders.
It seems this should be possible.

How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.

How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.

HA! I figured the find my iphone out!!!!! You can have more than one icloud account in "Mail, Contacts and Calendars". So my husband's & kids' phone icloud account under "settings, icloud "is their individual @me.com account. Set it to everything you want EXCEPT Find My Iphone. Then under "settings, mail/contacts/calendars" you set up both accounts (your @me.com which may already be there), then add another with the main appleID and enable ONLY Find My Iphone. Now when any of us log into Find My Iphone from any device with our main apple ID for the app store, all the devices show up!!!! YIPPEE. I made my own day!
I think the message I got previously was because I hadn't disabled the find my iphone on the @me.com account first.
