How do I set up using IMAP

When I was setting up my iPad 3 I was only able to set up using POP with no SSL . I am using Telus mail . I would like to use SSL . Also , after I did this my Mac Pro would no longer allow me to use SSL on port 993 to recieve mail ? It will only work on port 143 with no SSL . I have set up iCloud for the iPad , just in case it matters .
Thanks in advance

I do not sync any of my mail accounts through iTunes. I have a total of 24 . . . yes <GRIN> . . . e-mail accounts that are active, using Yahoo, Gmail, ATT and .MAC. Some more active than others, obviously. I use both IMAP and POP settings, as the need presents. I do not access my Yahoo accounts with Apple mail on my computer, however as that would be an extra charge, and those accounts are not used much any more. I also do not use any Exchange accounts, because I am retired and have no need to connect to a corporate account any more.

  • How do I set up an IMAP Yahoo! Beta mail account in MAIL app?

    Hi there!
    I would like to know how do I set up an IMAP mail account from Yahoo! Mail Beta in Mail app. Can someone help me?
    THX!

    Please disregard my post above. It appears that Yahoo does now indeed have IMAP access. From Wikipedia:
    "Free IMAP and SMTPs access
    It is possible to get direct IMAP access. Yahoo! operates IMAP and secure IMAP servers (imap.mail.yahoo.com in particular), which are globally accessible. However they require a specific, non-standard IMAP command to be sent before login is done, namely: “ID ("GUID" "1")”. This non standard command is not required if accessed from mobile networks, typically those used by smart phones on mobile carriers such as AT&T, T-Mobile, etc... For regular internet users, it is feasible to modify an open-source e-mail client to send the ID command, and there are modified versions of Mutt and Mozilla Thunderbird available to download.[25] Alternatively, one can connect an unmodified e-mail client through an IMAP proxy that adds the ID command. A commercial software package that accomplishes this is called 'Yahoo IMAP Connector',[26] available here. Mutt-dev (1.5) works without any modifications.
    It is also possible to send mail through mail clients as Yahoo! also operates an SMTP server (smtp.mail.yahoo.com). It is necessary to enable SSL through port 465. For IMAP and SMTPS access the username is the user's Yahoo! Mail address and the password is the same as for webmail access.
    Mac OS X users can directly set up an IMAP account in Apple Mail 4.4. After entering a full name, email address and password, hold down the Option key. The Create button will change to Continue, allowing one to manually configure the account settings."

    If I remember correctly, you can't check it with Mail--it's iPhone only. As far as I'm aware, the only way you can check your Yahoo mail in Mail.app is if you have a Yahoo Mail Plus account (and that's POP-only according to the site):
    http://mailplus.mail.yahoo.com/
    Alternatively, you could sign up for a Gmail account, set that up to pull in your Yahoo mail, and then configure Gmail IMAP in Mail.

  • How do I set up an IMAP account in mail

    I've tried several times to set up a new account in Mail in Mavericks but it always defaults to a POP account. I can't see any way of setting up an IMAP account. Please help.

    Thanks Barney-15E:  I've tried holding down the Option key at every option to Continue and I never get the option to configure the account manually, it just always sets up a POP account.
    Thanks Donald Morgan: that support article does not help. it has step 4 "Deselect "Automatically set up account" if it is enabled. Click Continue to proceed." but I cannot find any checkbox or other way to deselect Automatically set up account.
    I've set this account up as IMAP in every system since OSX came out and I've never had this problem.
    Does anybody know how to set up an IMAP account in Mail in Mavericks !?!

  • How do I set up shared IMAP folders?

    Does anyone know how to add a shared IMAP folder on a client machine so that it appears in their Mail account? I'm doing some support for a small company that has its own 10.5 Mail server in-house. Three of the users in the office are able to access a shared IMAP folder (it's just the sent mail from another user's account). Now the owner wants me to set up the other two clients in the same way but i don't know how the original three were set up. The icon on the correctly configured client machines shows a gray folder instead of the usual blue. I thought it might be a subscription, but the folder I want to subscribe to doesn't show up as an option when I go to the Subscription List (by right-clicking on any IMAP folder on any given client account). Do I have to delegate who has authorization by adding permissions to the account that is doing the sharing? I poked around in the WGM and the Mail service but didn't see anything relevant...

    well, you can use cyradmin to take a look at the other shared folders on the server side without changing anything. i'm going to guess that's the way the shared folder was setup in the first place.
    of course, this begs the question: why does this client/company share 45 gb of sent mail in this fashion, and how could they better use technology and/or resources for their needs?
    it sounds like yet another gross misuse of mail standards. just because you can share that huge pile of mail data doesn't mean you should.

  • How can I set CameraRAWOpenOptions using Javascripts in Photoshop CS6?

    I have been unable to set CameraRAWOpenOptions in scripts that worked fine for me in Photoshop CS5 but now do not work in Photoshop CS6.  There are no error messages when I run the scripts, and they appear to finish okay, but the images come out unadjusted.  Below is the essence of how I'm trying to do it.  When I run these scripts in Extendscript (CS5 or CS6 does not make a difference), Photoshop CS6 simply uses its own default (saved) settings, but CS5 would allow the overrides.  I did change the default settings in CameraRAW in CS6 to use the default lens correction profiles available from the EXIF data, and I'm wondering if that rendered the script unable to change any of the rest of the settings.
    Here's how I have the code:
    var RawOptions = new CameraRAWOpenOptions;
    RawOptions.settings=CameraRAWSettingsType.CUSTOM;
    RawOptions.exposure=+2.00;
    RawOptions.vignettingAmount = 0;
    RawOptions.vignettingMidpoint = 0;
    RawOptions.contrast = 50;
    RawOptions.saturation = 0;
    RawOptions.shadows = 0;
    RawOptions.luminanceSmoothing = 0;
    var JPGopts = new JPEGSaveOptions;
    JPGopts.quality = JPEGquality;
    //Perform the loop through the files
    app.open(testListing[0], RawOptions, false);
    app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
    for (var nfile = nstart; nfile < nstop; nfile++)
        app.open(testListing[nfile], RawOptions, false);
        FnameSave = new File(SavePath+"/"+testListing[nfile].name);
        app.activeDocument.saveAs(FnameSave, JPGopts, false, Extension.UPPERCASE);
        app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

    I would collapse and expand the toolbar windows by using the double arrow icon?
    Doing this will almost give you your full screen?
    Or you can hit 'Tab' and it hides your tools when you don't need them?

  • How do I set up using icloud on multiple pcs?

    I set up icloud on my home computer which was linked through Plaxo to my work PC so that everything I put into one would synce with the other.

The calendar is my biggest issuse since people at work put things on my work PC, but icloud is not picking it up and putting it on my home PC. Any help would be appreciated.

  • How do I set and use a custom time zone?

    We're developing a mixed HTML, javascript and Flex application.
    In our HTML/Flex application, one of user's settings is the time zone he wishes to use. Since this can be different from the local time zone of the computer he happens to be using, we need to tell flex to interpret all dates as being in a foreign time zone e.g. force it to America/Los_Angeles.
    I'm hoping there is a way to specify this in flex, so we don't have to do offset calculations on every single Date object. This would be very complicated, as I'm sure you know (and no, it is not simply UTC + x, where x is a constant, or x is an integer number of hours...)
    Is there a way to do this in flex?

    P.S: I've found these related things so far:
    asTimeZone: The svn repository is 404, and there seems to be no activity, but looks interesting...
    A reference to the system class, but I couldn't find anything interested in the system class.
    A comment that player 10 should have something useful, but I didn't find any thing about it elsewhere.

  • How to get folders from your server using IMAP and push, 3G.

    After looking all over this forum looking for an answer, I found out on my own. here's how:
    Step 1: Login to your email server.
    - If you can, log into your email server via webmail. This ensures that you are in fact connected to your email server and your folders are being created. If your email server doesn't have webmail, then create the folders using whatever email app you have on your PC or Mac.
    Step 2: Creating the folders.
    - All the folders you want to have show up on your iphone must be created as sub-folders under your Inbox folder on the server. Here's what mine looks like for example.
    Mailbox
    -Inbox
    ++-Sent Messages
    ++-Deleted Messages
    ++-Friends
    ++-Work
    ++-Others
    -Drafts
    -Sent
    -Deleted
    -Junk Email
    *you may be wondering why I have 2 sent and Deleted folders. I have it set up so that the folders in the inbox are for the iphone, and the ones outside are from Outlook.
    Step 3: Getting the folders to show up on the iphone.
    - Once you set up your IMAP account on the iphone 3g, simply log into the account, wait for it to finish checking for emails, then tap the Inbox button. Give it a few seconds to load if it's loading something. After it finishes, back out by tapping the 'Mailboxes' in the top-left corner, and your folders should be there.
