How do I save sent emails on my web server using Mail with IMAP?

I have email through a web hosting company setup as IMAP through Apple Mail. In preferences, I have the box checked to save sent emails on the server, however, when I send emails they are stored in Sent Messages folder on my Mac and not on my web server. Also, when I send emails on my iPhone they are stored in the regular Sent folder for my email under Mailboxes.
How can I get all my sent emails stored on my web server?

In Mail, select the mailbox you want to use for sent emails, then go the 'Mailbox' menu and choose 'use this mailbox for' and click 'sent'. The same goes for your iPhone. In settings, go to the advanced settings of the outgoing email server. There you can choose which mailbox you want to use for storing your drafts, sent items, ...

How should I mark a message as spam when using Mail with IMAP Gmail

Hi,
I've been using Apple Mail 3.2 with Gmail's IMAP for several month's and am very happy with the setup. One feature of Gmail that's great is the spam filtering, however, every day a couple spam messages get through the filtering. My question is this: What's the best way to train Gmail of a spam message?
Accessing Gmail through the Safari allows you to mark a message as Spam. I assume that Gmail then does something to train its algorithm that spam has been received so that a similar message will go direct to the Spam folder the next time its received.
I prefer to deal with my email via Apple Mail or via the iPhone Mail and have been moving spam messages to the Spam folder. Does this action do anything to train Gmail's spam filtering so that a similar message will go direct to the spam folder?
Thanks

Hello Hal:
I think you will get a better answer to your question by contacting G-mail. In my case, I use AOL mail in Apple's mail application. AOL catches the vast majority of spam/junk and it is placed in a spam folder. The few that get through seem to be trapped by Apple's mail and placed in the Junk folder.

How do I save my email attachments that are sent as a word file

How do I save my email attachments that are sent as a word file

You need an app that you can use the Open In function and save the file into that is compatible with Word files like Pages, Smart Office and now Mocrosoft has a Word App for the iPad. It is a read only version unless you subscribe to. Office 365, as far as I know anyway, but it is free and you can save the file to the app.
Search the App Store for other alternatives.

How do i delete sent emails in one go?

How do i delete sent emails in one go? There must be a few thousand sent items in there with large attachments. Of course it would be silly to do it one by one, so whats the quicker solution?

You could always try the Mark All thing again for sorting. Do the same as before, for delete (come to think of it, do it before you Delete All, otherwise you'll have nothing to sort). Having Marked All, instead of Delete try Sort. Does this make any difference?

Yes there is, if you hold down the attachment widget in the email once the video is downloaded, it will give you a series of options to save it to, including camera roll.
Hope this solves your question.

HT2500 How do I save an email with 400 other emails in it, as a PDF? There is supposed to be a way.

I selected all the emails in a mailbox. Opened a new email, clicked in the body and click edit>append something or other. All the selected emails from the mailbox appeared in the new email. I click print and mail locks up and I have to force quit. It's supposed to open a print dialog box in which I should be able to click PDF in the lower left corner... but I can't get that far. How can I save these emails as a PDF?
Thanks.

How do I save "Sent" messages when sending from the ipad2?

By default sent items should be saved in your Sent folder. For IMAP type accounts you should be able to change that by selecting the account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then selecting 'Account' on the popup for it and then 'Advanced' at the bottom of the next popup

HT201250 how do i save selected emails to time machine?

how do i save selected emails to time machine?

Don't put emails you want to save into the Trash. In the mail sidebar you should see an "On MY MAC" section below the Inbox, Trash, Junk, etc., mailboxes. You can create mailboxes in this section for emails you want to save. (I suggest you check out Mail help & at least read the overview info.)
Also, there is no point in looking for individual email files in Time Machine backups (or for that matter in the Mail folders on your HD). They are stored with names that won't make sense to you & cross-linked with database & other files Mail maintains.
You are making this harder than it is. Just let Time Machine back up everything & it will take care of the rest of it.

How can I save an email as plain text when the save as is greyed out?

How can I save an email message as a plain text document if the saved as command is greyed out? I am using OSX Mountain Lion. Macbook Pro thanks.

OK, but is it happening to you with all messages or just some messages? If just some, can you characterize which ones? (Maybe messages with only one "alternative*" form, or with the "wrong" alternative for displayed, or messages containng images but no text?)
* By "alternative" form, I mean in the sense of Mail > View > Message > Previous Alternative or Next Alternative or Plain Text Alternaive or Best Alternative.)
Similarly, can you characterize the circumstances under which you cannot save an attachment?

How do I save the contents of all of my saved mail folders?

How do I save the contents of all of my saved mail folders?

Oh, I see...
All the mail is stored in ~/Library/Mail (and its associated subdirectories).
Your Library holder is hidden by default under Mountain Lion (and Lion, too?), so hold the Option key when selecting the Window menu in the Finder to add it to the menu, from where you can access it.

In a Smart Group in AddressBook 6.1, how do I designate which email addresses I want to use?

In a Smart Group in AddressBook 6.1, how do I designate which email address I want to use for contacts who have more than one address when I'm mailing to the whole group? The "Edit Distribution List" is grayed out.

Thanks, Barney, but that's not really my question. The "Edit Distribution List" is in the Edit menu on my version, too, but I can't use it to edit the email addresses of contacts who are in Smart Groups. In the version of AddressBook I was using before I bought a new MacBook Pro and upgraded to Mac OSX Lion, I could use the "Edit Distribution List" to pick which email address I wanted to use for contacts in Smart Groups with more than one address. Apparently that isn't an option in Lion. The Help menus for AddressBook 6.1 even say that "Edit Distribution Lists" doesn't work for Smart Groups.
Okay. I get that. But some of my contacts have more than one email address, so how do I choose which email address I want Mail to use for these contacts when I send an email to a Smart Group they're in?
