How can I set up mail in OSX.1?

I have an old iMac flatpanel that I have just repaired and have installed OSX.1.5 on it. How can I set mac mail up to work on it?

"OSX.1.5" is not a valid OS identification.
Is the Mail app installed?

    I am not sure I understand you question, but if you are attempting to set up an iCloud email account, you can start in System Preferences >  iCloud > Account Details. Establishing the details of your iCloud (a.k.a. Apple) ID there automatically creates the account in Mail

  • How can i set up mail rules from an iPad?

    I am familiar with using rules to filter email.
    From my Mac at home I acces iCloud.com and have no problems.
    I went away for the long weekend, and brought only my iPad.
    I started receiving spam from a new source and wanted to filter it out.
    From safari, when I go to iCloud I only have three choices, none of them useful.
    I have tried to use different URLs but always get redirected to /ipad_welcome/
    Is there a way to do this?
    Or does the post-PC device still need a PC?

    I think there is not a good solution for it (yet). The best solution is to check if you mailserver provides a spam filter solution. I use Gmail and it provides a filter on the serverside. This means the mail is filtered befor I receive it on my iPad (and iPhone). You can also set up a gmail account as a exchange and push all the filtered folders.
    Cheers

  • How can I set Apple Mail to not remember MobileMe password

    For security reasons, I'd like to set Apple Mail to prompt me for my MobileMe password when ever I open the program but there is not option for this in the preferences.
    I have accomplished this with my other(non-MobileMe) mail accounts by just erasing the passwd from these accounts in the accts. prefs. Apple Mail prompts me to enter those email acct passwds when I open Apple mail BUT when I try this with my MobileMe acct. I will get a prompt to enter my MobileMe password but I also get this error:
    "You entered an invalid MobileMe member name or password. Verify your MobileMe member name and password in MobileMe System Preferences."
    and I lose my MobileMe passwd in the MobileMe Acct settings in System Prefs.
    Anyone have a solution for Apple Mail to prompt me for MobileMe password

  • How can I set up mail server?

    A heavily loaded question
    First off, are you talking about SMTP? IMAP? POP?
    Secondly, what are you trying to achieve, specifically?
    Due to the nature of the protocols, SMTP is pretty fault tolerant, and multiple SMTP servers don't, necessarily, need to be aware of each other, so 'clustering' SMTP could be a matter of setting up multiple servers in parallel and just load balancing your traffic across them. Nothing difficult there.
    IMAP (and POP, if you use it) are different since they affect the user's mailbox and what they see in their mail client. In the worst case, failing over to a different server could render the user's mail inaccessible. For this reason, in high availability scenarios, the actual mailboxes are usually stored on some shared resource such as a SAN - that way any IMAP server can access the user's mailboxes. Of course, this just moves the failure domain from the mail server to the storage server, but for the most part that's a better-known entity.
    At the end of the day you need to balance complexity and availability. It is possible to build highly available systems with virtually no downtime and automatic failover. In many cases, though, tolerating a few minutes (or even hours) of downtime while a crashed server is rebooted/rebuilt is not the end of the world.
    You'll need to provide more details of your goals before anyone can be more specific.

  • How can I set up mail groups or distribution lists in apple mail?

    How may I create Distribution lists for mail. I need to set up a series of groups with a number of mail addresses, I don't want to input every mail address every time I send a mail!

    Groups of contacts are created in the Contacts application and then may be used in the Mail application by typing the group name instead of a recipient name.

  • How can I set Yahoo mail as my default mail application on Mac Mail?

    I am trying to make Yahoo Mail (free version, not Yahoo mail Plus!) my default mail application. This would allow me to cick on any link sending e-mails and it will launch the yahoo mail application to send mail from there, obviously. For this to happen I need to open Mac "Mail > Preferences >" and choose "Default email reader" under the "General". I then choose the email application of my choice (Yahoo in my case). "GMail Notifier" for Google fans.
    I am not able to find a Yahoo application mail in my application folder or on the Internet, and frankly speaking, Yahoo mail support absolutely suck, and getting a hold of them is nearly impossible! There is a free applet out there called "Yahoomailer" that might do the job, but either I am installing it wrong since when I download and click on it nothing happens, or it does not work properly on my machine. So, I am turning to the community to get some help with this issue. All I need is to know if there is a Yahoo mail app out there that can be installed on MAC and shows up on my Mail > Preferences > Default email reader.
    Thank you,
    I am using MAC OS X 10.8.2

    My tools menu does not show "options" as a choice - any idea why? Thanks

  • How can I set up hotmail in the mail application

    Hi
    How can I set the mail application to include hotmail? I've been able to add it, but it doesn't sync read and unread messages. I know iPhones used to have the same problem, but after iOS5, there was an option to include mail from hotmail. Is there an option to include hotmail now in Mail, as I can't find it.
    Also, as I've just switched from Windows to Mac, is there a button on Mac for home and end like Windows has?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately hotmail requires you to pay a fee to have your e-mail go through a mail application, like Apple Mail. Contact their customer service to see about fees, as well as set up process.

  • How can I set up various mailboxes in Mail on my iPad.

    How can I set up various mailboxes in Mail on my iPad.
    I am using a Pop account and don't want to change this setup.
    I use two devices to access the same email account but I am not experiencing any lockout issues.
    Mail is simply not giving me any options to create mailboxes and there must be a way of doing this.  If I can do it in my iMac, surely I can do the same thing on my iPad.

    -Tap "Settings" app,
    -Select "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" option on the left hand side,
    -On the right, under "Accounts" on top, tap "Add Account...",
    -Select one of the email service providers or "Other",
    -Under "Mail", tap "Add Mail Account",
    -A window pops up and enter your new email account details.
    -Repeat for new email accounts.

  • How can I get spam mail sent straight to trash on my iPad and iPhone.  Have managed to set rules on my iMac but not the rest.

    How can I set up rules to get spam emails sent straight to my trash when I am using an iPhone4S or iPad3?  Have managed to do this on my iMac but can't see a way to do it on the other devices.  Getting about 50 a day recently using my email address but not my name in the messages - no idea why this has started but it is annoying!!

    You cannot set rules on the iPad or the iPhone for mail. The only thing that you can do is to filter spam mail in your webmail settings using a web browser. The rules that set up in the mail app on the Mac do not sync across devices, those are rules for inside the mail client itself on the Mac.

  • E-mail synch, read/unread, how can I set this up?

    I'd like to refer to an older question I found which hadn't been answered properly.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3557308?start=0&tstart=0
    Quite simply, the question is;
    I have my work e-mail, my Hotmail and my Gmail all set-up on my iPhone 4S and my iPad 1st gen.
    When I read an e-mail on the computer via browser or outlook, I would like for this e-mail to appear as READ on my devices as well.
    Vise versa for when I read it on the iPad/Phone and I want that e-mail to show as read on Outlook and browser.
    Because this doesn't happen automatically, the Mail icon on my home screen is constantly showing over 1K e-mails, when in reality I may have like 10 on each e-mail account.
    How can I set this up?
    Is it possible for my to set this up for deleting e-mails also?
    I know I can do that on Gmail, delete from server blah blah, but how about when I delete e-mail from Outlook...I want them to be off my phone also.
    It's a business e-mail, and I get like over 50 read/received notifications that spam my inbox.
    Thank you for taking the time to read and for any advice you may have.

    Please go to
    1.Setting
    2. mail,contacts and calenders
    3. add accounts
    4. insert your email account and password
    5. Autometically imports your mails if you open mail folder on the desktop..
    That is it.

    How can I set up my email so when I delete mail from my Mac it deletes from my iPhone as well?

    That is a function of your email account, if it is an Imap account it will sync, if it's a POP account, it won't.
