How do i set up my email so i would need to use password to sign in, instead of clicking on icon and open it directly?

You can't with the built-in Mail app. There may be third-party email apps in the App Store that have a password option, or you could access your account via Safari - go to your host's login page and then create a homescreen shortcut for it via the 'share' icon (the square with the upward pointing arrow), tapping on that homescreen shortcut will open Safari on your login page.

How can I set up an email user as "send-only" (no mailbox for receiving)?

Can anyone tell me how I can set up an email account that can send emails but not receive emails.
Our Web application has been using a generic email address "[email protected]" in all of our PHP Web applications as the sending email account. I have this user set up in WORKGROUP ADMIN as a proper account. However the account gets tons of SPAM emails and is constantly filling up.
Also, all of the email accounts require SMTP authentication to send emails.
Is there any way to identify an account as a send only account so we can generate emails from our Web applications that cannot be replied to?
Thanks for the help
-- Jon

Doing so will cause issues. If you send out mail which to an outside server appears to be non existent, mail may be rejected and you may even be blacklisted.
You can remove the account from WGM and add a role account as an alias send to /dev/null. This will look to the outside world like an existing address, but simply be discarded on your system. You should however include a working address in your mailings for people to be able to respond.
Assuming you use local domains, edit /etc/postfix/aliases and add:
noreply: /dev/null
(you can change noreply with the sender used in your PHP apps, but I'd probably change the PHP apps to use noreply as this signals to people receiving your mails that this address is unattended).
When done, issue:
sudo postalias /etc/postfix/aliases
sudo newaliases
sudo postfix reload

How can I set up 2 email accounts in Mail

It's me again.
I'm trying to set up Mail 2.1.3. in 10.4.11. I have 2 email accounts. I can enter one just fine but it won't take another. When I try, it says that I "already have a POP account". How do I set up 2 email accounts? I see where I can enter the 2 email addresses by separating them by a comma. But the 2 addresses have different passwords and the password box takes only one password at a time. Any ideas?

It's hard for me to tell by what has been written so far, but it may be referring to what you are entering for the account description. That is, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > Acct Info, for each account it has several entries: Acct Type (that you can't change), Description, email address, full name. If the first account's description is POP, then make the second account's description POP2. I use terms like, "home", "work", and "school" for my accounts' descriptions.
If this is not what is going on, please write down every step you do, and every entry you make, as you try to configure your second email account and post it back here. Naturally, do NOT disclose your actual email address(es) or mail account login name or its password to us here.

I use Mac Mail. How do I set up an email to get a delivery or read receipt?

I use Mac Mail. How do I set up an email to get a delivery or read receipt? In other words, I want to receive automated confirmation that the email was either delivered, opened, or both -- which you can do in Outlook. I was not able to find this option in the Mail menu.

Unfortunately OS X Mail does not offer this feature as far as I know. With Apple failing to offer that feature up until now I highly doubt it'll happen in the future :/

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.

Hi Martin,
MobileMe Mail Help: Setting up Mac OS X Mail to receive your MobileMe email
The steps you follow to set up Mac OS X Mail to receive your MobileMe email depend on which version of Mac OS you’re using.
Important: For the instruction below, use the following: MobileMe Mail’s incoming mail server is “mail.me.com” and the outgoing mail server it “smtp.me.com.”
To set up Mac OS X Mail to receive MobileMe mail:
If you’re using Mac OS X version 10.4.11 or later
Open System Preferences (under the Apple icon at the upper-left of your computer screen).
Click MobileMe (if you have Mac OS X version 10.5.3 or later), or .Mac (if using version 10.4.11 to 10.5.2), and enter your MobileMe member name and password.
Open Mac OS X Mail, choose Mail > Preferences, and then click Accounts.
Click the Add button at the lower-left of the Accounts pane. Choose MobileMe from the Account Type pop-up menu, and then enter your account information.
The member name and password you use for SMTP authentication must match the member name and password in the User Name and Password fields.
To switch to POP, delete the existing IMAP account before you create the new POP account. Choose POP Account from the Account Type pop-up menu instead of MobileMe Account.

How do I set up the email settings

How do I set up the email settings, so the Phone will catch all my junk mail and put it in the junk mail folder? I have a yahoo email account if it matters.

If the account is a POP account that can't be accessed as an IMAP account with an email client on your computer as well as with the iPhone's Mail client, the same is not possible.
The iTunes sync process for email accounts is for transferring email account setup information only - from your computer to your iPhone. This does not sync account mailboxes and messages.
The only way to keep account mailboxes synchronized with the server when accessing an account with an email client on multiple computers or devices such as the iPhone, is with an IMAP account. A POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client. An IMAP account is designed to be accessed with an email client on multiple computers or devices.
A free Yahoo account provided for iPhone customers, which can be accessed as an IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail client, cannot be accessed with an email client on your computer.

How do I set up my email account on my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 so that the emails are downloaded to my computer and removed from the ISP server?

how do I set up my email account on my iMac OS Yosemite 10.10.2 so that the emails are downloaded to my computer and removed from the ISP server?

When setting up the email using Apple 'Mail' (version 8.2 (2070.6)) I do not get an option to set up my email as using POP. I can go to Outlook from Microsoft and I get a chance to set my mail up using POP, however I would prefer to use the Apple supplied 'Mail' email programme as I'm using Office 365 and may not want to continue the subscription sometime in the future.
Any advice on setting Mail to POP would be appreciated. A not so Happy Wombat.

How do I set up an email group (aka distribution list) on iPad Air

How do I set up an email group (aka distribution list) on iPad Air?

It wasn't clear what the diff was between the 2 versions. I got the impression, from some reviews, that the free version limited the number of groups you could have, or the number in each group. Anyway, after all the hours I've spent over the last few days trying work-arounds, it was well worth 4 bucks.
