How do I move email addresses to a group folder?

Howdy
I would like to add a few email addresses to a new Group folder. From what I have read on this forum, I should be able to highlight the address I want and drag it to the folder. But it is not working. I can highlight the email address, drag it over to the folder, but it will not enter into the folder.
I am running Lion, 10.7.3. My email program is the one that comes with the iMac, 5.2.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, Captfred
Thank you for your speedy reply. How do I define a group as smart or not? If I remember correctly, there should be a + sign and a - sign at the bottom of the Groups column, so that I can work with them. But they do not appear at the bottom of that column in my mail program.
Thanks

How can I copy a list of email address into a group folder in contacts?

I have a list of all the email addresses of my tennis club members. How can I copy that into a group address. At the moment I have to find each one and drag it into the folder, but I am sure there must be an easier way. Does anyone know what that is?

I'm glad you figured it out. I was thrown off by literally interpreting the term "list" I guess
In truth, a "mailing list" of multiple recipients, when applied to a particular email message is nothing more than a "comma de-limited list" of the addresses. Some mail clients add < > on either end of the individual addresses
[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],etc.
<[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,etc.
in the old days, we would just keep a text file an add to the end as needed.
lists are commonly used as 'Mini-databases' in Adobe(Macromedia) Director, my everyday tool for years. A list of lists, then becomes a bigger database as does a list of a (list of lists), and so on
Too much information, methinks

trying to rent movie from Apple TV. Message states a valid address is necessary to purchase. We have purchased about 15 show in the last month along. Any suggestion on how to update valid email address.

I got the same error and can't get it to work. My email and home address have not changed in the 3 years I've been using this device, my credit card info is up to date and my most recent rental was 2 days ago yet I get the error message on both the Apple TV and in iTunes. I don't understand what the issue is, nothing is invalid.

How do I move an address book from a pc to my new MacBook Pro

Hey andreafiona,
You can either manually migrate or use Windows Migration Assistant. I'd like to direct you to two articles - the first one here will go over generally what Windows Migration Assistant is about. For you, I'd skip to the section titled "What gets transferred, and to where?" and then "Email, contacts, and calendar information" so you can read about where you contacts will get moved if you choose the WMA option:
About Windows Migration Assistant
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
Then, this next article will be a step by step process for transferring from your PC to the MacBook Pro and will include using both Windows Migration Assistant and manually migrating, whichever you choose:

Can't copy or move email addresses when composing an email??!?!?!?!

If I am composing an email and the email address is already encased in the "blue bubble" is there any way to copy / cut / paste the text string of the email address contained within the blue bubble?
I can highlight the blue bubble email address by tapping it.... I can unhighlight it by tapping it again. Or I can backspace and delete the email address bubble. Aside from that I've tried everything and can't figure out how to copy that email address in the bubble.
Why this would be useful:
I want to easily copy/paste/move particular email recipients from the "to:" field to the "CC:" field
Or, I want to copy the email address encased in that blue bubble, and paste into my Contacts, or into a SMS text message.
Seems like a major oversight.
Help Thanks

Do you get the option to replace the "existing" one with the one you are moving? What kind of folders and what kind of photos?

You can't delete either the account or the email address. If you are getting messages to it you don't want to see, go to http://icloud.com and to the Mail page: click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Rules'. Then set up a Rule to move all messages to your address to the Trash.

I can't figure out how to delete and email address for someone that is no longer valid.

I can't figure out how to delete an email address that is no longer valid.

Assuming that this is on your iOS device, then you can change a contact's details via the Contacts app. If it's not linked to one of your contacts then I get a blue 'i' to the right of the email address on the popup list :
Tapping on that gives me a second popup, at the bottom of which is :

Can someone please help me figure out how to "clear" recent email addresses used in Mail?

Can someone please help me figure out how to “clear” recent email addresses used in Mail? For example, as I begin typing a name/email address in the “To:” field, Mail begins suggesting addresses that I’ve previously used. I don’t want any suggestions unless they are in my contacts.
Another example: When using MS Outlook, it will also remember and suggest email accounts previously used, but I can arrow down and delete an account from the list so it won’t automatically popup or suggest in the future.
I appreciate any guidance in this matter.

The iOS email app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which cannot be turned off. The email address autofill feature when addressing an email pulls from contacts and from the list of previous recipients which can't be prevented. There is no option to clear the list of previous recipients - not at the present time anyway.
If you don't want any suggestions, select from contacts instead when addressing an email.

How to single out email addresses in a text

Gurus,
How can I get email addresses in a single text?
for example if given
'"has, Fez" <[email protected]>,"Heidinger, Matk" <[email protected]>,'
how can I get just
[email protected]???
[email protected]
??? it comes in a single line but I need to have it in a column so
the column shows a list of unique email addresses
ebro

Assuming consistent format you can use this
declare @emailist varchar(1000)='has, Fez" <[email protected]>,"Heidinger, Matk" <[email protected]>,'
select STUFF(Val,1,CHARINDEX('<',Val+'<'),'')
FROM dbo.ParseValues(@emailist,'>,')
WHERE LTRIM(STUFF(Val,1,CHARINDEX('<',Val+'<'),''))> ''
See udf here

Mail: How to delete an email address in the "To" field that is no longer valid

How to delete an email address that is no longer valid but still appears as an option when typing that person's name in the field "To"; in MS Outlook this simply works by deleting that email address in the field "To" or "Cc" or "Bcc". The old, non-valid email address has been deleted in the address book and replaced by a new valid email address. When typing in the "To" field both email addresses appear as an option. Is it possible to achieve that only the valid email address is offered as an option so to avoid any confusion.

well, when the "false" address is in the "to" field, you should see a littl' arrow pointing down and a "remove from previous recipients list.
It should fix the problem. (and so, only keep the "good one"
(oops, too late)

How to delete an email address in Mail

A friend of mine has just changed his email address but I cannot remove his old one from Mail. I have added his new address and removed the old one from my Address book but his old address still comes up as the default when starting a new email to him.
Any ideas would be appreciated...Cheers...

Biggest apologies thought I was writing about iOS!?
Am I also wrong about that too in iOS?

It appears because your mail app remembers a history of addresses.
It cannot be deleted but I think it will disappear after a certain time.

How to Validate Multiple email address in spry?

How to validate multiple email address in spry framework?
Spry validate text field can validate one email address only,
if I the text field is for multiple emails, how can I validate
it?

Hello Jackson,
The Spry Textfield was designed to work with the normal work
flows that people currently use in most of the forms on the web. We
tried to prevent any email injection method in the forms therefore
the validation was designed to stop any multiple email insertion.
In case you want to insert multiple emails you'll have to
disable the default email validation and create your own validation
function, more flexible. You can see a
sample
we did for the custom validation trying to validate a password
strength and confirm the password.

How do I move emailed photos to iPhoto with Lion? I've lost the drop down option.Karen

How do I move emailed photos to iPhoto using Lion? I've lost the previous drop down option.
Thank you, Karen

There are multiple ways. I am not at my Lion machine at the moment, so I am not sure I can remember them all, but here is one: Click on the "Details" button in the upper right corner of the message. If there are image attachments, the drop down menu should appear.
Or, try right click on the image. I think I saw "Add to iPhoto" in the contextual menu.
