How do I disable mail delivery to Thunderbird without uninstalling it?

I am doing an email migration and need to be able to disable mail delivery to Thunderbird without uninstalling it. Thanks.

If you select something else while Firefox is full size, what ever you have selected
should open on top of Firefox. FF does not have a "always on top" option.

  • How can I disable mail.app?

    I want to disable mail.app.  I don't buy that it's "needed by OS X."  I want it shut off, or preferably uninstalled.  I found a better app that still lets me read newsgroups, and mail.app just gets in the way.  I had to go in and tell Google Calendar to shut off email notifications to stop the Notification Center from opening mail.app without me wanting it.
    I might consider re-enabling mail.app, but not now.  Maybe not ever.  I bought a Mac so applications would only run when I want them.  This is not it.

    Hey, I too have mail.app open on its own even though it is not the default email program and I do not "open" or "click" on it. I also--I don't think--have any accounts configured. When it opens all I see is the "Welcome to Mail" page.
    Major annoyance.
    Do you have any recommendations or suggestions on how to prevent mail.app from opening?
    Much thanks,

  • How do i disable mail on my ipad if my ipad was stolen??

    my ipad was stolen.  how do i disable so no one can read my email?

    Change your email account password, and any other passwords that your iPad might be remembering.  If you set up a MobileMe or iCloud account on it and enabled Find My iPad, then you can use that to lock the iPad as well as locate it.

  • How do you delete mail in 5.0 without opening

    On my ipad mail has an edit option which allows me to delete mail withuot opening.  Mail 5.0 on my imac does not have this option.  How do I delete mail here without opening?

    Right-click on the message and select delete.  There are probably other ways to do this, but the right-click is what I do.

  • How can I clear the stored auto-complete e-mail addresses in Thunderbird, without clearing everything?

    In the auto-complete of e-mail addresses, old invalid addresses keep appearing in this list that are not in any address book (any more).
    How can I delete one from the list, or perhaps all?
    (Thunderbird v31, Dutch)

    The only place that Thunderbird gets suggested addresses is from your address books. I have seen some not show up in the books because some key info was never stored when the contact was saved.
    Sometimes you can start a new message and when the bad contact shows up select it. Create the message and save it to drafts. Then you can go to the Draft folder open the draft message by right clicking and select Open Message in Tab. Then click the star to the right of the contact and it will open the contact edit button. From there you can delete the contact.
    This does not always work though.

  • After upgrading to Safari 6.0 (running 10.7.4), when launching Safari, Mail also launches.  How do I disable Mail from launching simultaneously?

    Whenever I try to open only Safari, Mail automatically launches.  I cannot seem to figure out how to stop it from doing this.  I am certain that this is not about programs launching at login.  It only began after I did the Safari 6.0 update.  I cannot find anything in preferences on how to stop Mail from launching. 

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now.
    Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
    Step 1
    In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. Select the Safari icon in that folder and press the key combination command-I to open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in the Info window labeled Open in 32-bit mode. Uncheck it, if checked. Close the Info window and the Applications folder.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
    Caches/Metadata/Safari
    Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
    Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit Safari again.
    Launch the Terminal 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 Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    rm -fr $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.Safari
    Quit Terminal. Launch Safari and test.
    Step 3
    If Safari still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (some may not exist):
    Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
    PubSub/Database
    Safari
    (Note: you are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”)
    Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings and bookmarks will be lost.
    If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that will have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in step 1. Stop here and post again.
    If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
    Note: This step will remove your Safari Extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to restore them, do so one at a time, testing after each step to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
    If you don’t like the results of step 3, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.

  • How can I disable MIME at Mozilla Thunderbird, version 31.2.0?

    I'm using version 31.2.0. An older version (2.0.0.2) had in its GUI an option to disable MIME, but the new version does not have this option, or I just miss it... Is there any way to disable MIME at version 31.2.0?

    I presume you want to write in Plain Text only.
    Turn off the HTML formatting option.
    Tools > Account Settings > Composition & Addressing for the mail account
    deselect: 'Compose messages in HTML format.'
    Click on OK
    If you only want to read messages in Plain Text:
    'View' > 'Message Body as' > 'Plain Text'
    If you leave HTML composing enabled, you can invoke Plain Text by holding down 'Shift' key and click on 'Write'; but it will only be for that email.
    Likewise, if composing in HTML is disabled, but you need to send an email using HTML, press 'Shift' and click on Write to invoke HTML formatting for that email only.

  • How do I disable Mail?

    Mail's been such a clunker I've moved over to Thunderbird.
    However, Mail is still loading an email account, when I have deleted all the accounts and even the files in the Library/ Mail folder (and yes, I'd backed them up to external HD just in case).
    I use POP and MobileMe, but it's the MMe that keeps 'returning'.

    1. Mail activates throughout the day, regardless of login.
    2. Mail activates while I'm working, even when I'm offline.

  • Help! How can I delete mail on my iPhone without it deleting on my Mac?

    hey everybody!
    so, i used to be able to delete e-mails on my iphone (through my gmail account) without having them get deleted from my inbox on my mac's mail app. however, lately, this is not the case. i would like to be able to delete certain messages so that they won't have to stay on my phone but i still need them on my mac.
    does anyone have any solutions to this problem?
    thanks!

    I need the same answer applicable to Microsoft Exchange on a pc. When deleting email from the iphone it is deleting it from everywhere. I need it to stay on the laptop so that the laptop "controls". I just switched over from a blackberry and there was a email control function where you could tell the berry to defer to the laptop when deleting.
    I also having an issue in that my "sent" emails are not appearing on the laptop - anywhere. I cannot find a location to alter this.
    Please advise and thank you.

  • How do I delete mails on my Z10 without getting them deleted in the mail server

    Hi Friends,
    Earlier in OS7, before you delete a mail, you would get a caution message asking if the mail is supposed to be deleted on you handset only or both on handset and mailbox server. I do not see this option now in Z10 and when i Delete the mail on the phone, the same mail gets deleted in my mail server as well. 
    AM i missing something ??
    Thank you 

    if using Exchange Active sync, you see a portion of the message aka headers and only when replying or frwarding does it down load the whole message.
    POP will have all of the messages on device and with IMAP only 30 days worth will be on it.

  • How to rollback firefox 5 to Firefox 4 without uninstalling/losing addon settings

    I was wondering how to roll back my version of firefox from 5 to 4, seeing how I've been having flash issues (youtube videos fast forwarding and audio desyncing) and issues with images looking corrupted half way through loading.

  • How can i delete app data on iPhone without uninstalling the app?

    How can i delete app data on iPhone 4 without removing the application.     Facebook application size -57mb. And its app data is 70mb  

    This is ridiculous!
    Imagine this scenario, can't be that unlikely:
    I'm going away on holiday, or away on work for a while, and I'm not taking the computer to which I sync my phone. Before I leave I fill my iPhone up with music to take with me. While I'm travelling I want to install a new app, but I don't have space. I look to delete content from the phone - I can delete podcasts but not music. Unfortunately I don't have enough podcasts to free up space that way. So I don't purchase the app I wanted.
    This is bad for:
    1. The user (me)
    2. The app developer - lost download.
    3. Apple - they lose their cut of the app download, and royally p#@* off a user.
    Can someone explain to me why this limitation is good for anyone?!
