How Do I Tell Mail Not To Send Emails To Junk?

I upgraded to 10.9 recently and am working through a few hiccups. For example:
My Mail sends some incoming emails to the Junk folder.
The ones I'd like to see I add the sender to my Contacts but some keep ending up in Junk.
Any idea how to tell Mail that a specific sender is okay and those messages should go to the Inbox not Junk?
I'm running:
OSX 10.9.4
Mail 7.3
Contacts 8.0
Thanks

Thanks Eric.
One newsletter in question came through unmolested today so maybe, as you say, Mail learns.
I had to laugh. The email notifying me of your help ended up -- where else? -- my junk folder!
Thanks again.

Why did Mail randomly start sending emails to junk folder?

My mail app suddenly started sending important emails to my junk folder. I have been using mail on all of my devices for some time and have never changed any settings since I started. With the exception of some emails here and there, I have never had any issue with it. For whatever reason this week it just started sending almost everything to my junk folder. Does anyone know if theres any way I can fix this? It seems to only be my gmail account that this occurs.

This is not working for me either, as of a week or two ago. Junk mail is marked as junk, but stays in my inbox, regardless of my junk mail settings. I have it set to move junk to the junk folder, but Mail simply refuses to do so. I tried changing the setting, closing preferences, opening prefs and changing it back, but that does not help either.
Sadly this is the least of my problems with Mail in Leopard. I've had nothing but problems with it so far and I'm getting really frustrated. I'm running out of patience and ideas and it may simply be time to wipe out all my mailboxes and preferences, reimport all my old mail and start over from scratch again.

How do I tell Mail that it has incorrectly grouped messages as a conversation?

I like the Conversations feature of Mail, but apparently using the same subject line in 2 emails sent 6 months apart is enough to have the grouped. Can someone please tell me how I can tell Mail that it's wrong and not to group those particular messages. As far as I can tell I need to either turn the entire feature off or just accept that apparently Mail knows better than I do....

I had this problem too. Try filing the two messages into separate folders. I hope that helps.

More details on the particular "adjustments", please?
AFAIK, there's no documented to insinuate a change into an outbound SMTP message (if that's what you're up to here) within Apple Mail.
Most commonly, these sorts of header adjustments arise at an intermediate mail server. Usually spam filters have something similar.
If these particular "adjustments" are possible within Mail, then it's likely via the undocumented plugins API underneath Apple Mail. And, well, that API is not documented. And the plugins API has changed at various Apple Mail updates, too; it's clearly not a stable API.

How do I tell iphoto NOT to load ALL images from camea and iphone, only new images?

I've bee using my MacBook Pro, iphoto and Nikon for many years. I travel alot and take many pictures, and like to keep them on the memory cards as an extra backup. All was going great on a recent trip, until one day, suddenly, when I plug camera into computer, iphoto opens (as usual) but it starts downloading ALL of the old images on the memory card instead of just the ones that have not already been imported! It takes forever when you are using a 16GB card!! Is this due to some update I installed? How do I tell iphoto not to do this?! I only want to see images not yet imported, as it used to be. I am using OS X 10.6.8 and iphoto '09 - 8.1.2 And, this same thing is happening with my iphone, and my other camera.

iPhoto does read all images (how else can it know if it has already imported them or not) and then gives your oppertunity to import new, all or selected
Yes it does take a bit to get all images and see what needs to be imported - I use 32 GB cards - and the other issue is that if you delete impoprted photos next time you use the card the deleted ones will be in the new list so you have to select the rest and import selected - I've found no solution to this

How can you tell who the original sender of a group text is on an iPhone 5, when all that appears is a list of recipients in no particular order

how can you tell who the original sender of a group text is on an iPhone 5, when all that appears is a list of recipients in no particular order? I can't seem to identify the sender in the details list.

Start a separate thread to the original sender.

How do I tell iTunes not to install on sync apps that I downloaded?

I upgraded my SSD on my Mac and I thought I'd download all my apps so they were backed up on my computer. However, now iTunes tries to install them all on my iPhone whenever I try to sync it. I don't have nearly enough space on my iPhone so I always get a bunch of "ghost" apps and an error message that my iPhone is out of space every time I sync. How do I tell iTunes not to attempt to install these on my iPhone on sync? The only options to choose from are "Install" and "Will Install".
Thanks.
I have OS X 10.9.3, iTunes 11.2.2 (3), and iOS 7.1.1.

The easiest way is to simply remove the previous apps from your account, then sync all your apps. You can remove unwanted apps via iTunes. If you want a step by step instructions go to: http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-delete-unwanted-ios-apps-from-itunes/

It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things. By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files. I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule. The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac. That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.
By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your message into the field intended for the subject. In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

How do I tell Lightroom not to boot automatically?

When I load photos from my camera to my computer, Lightroom boots automatically and interferes with my loading. How do I tell Lightroom not to boot automatically under any circumstances? I cannot find that option in any menu.

Do one or more of the following solutions:
Solution 1: Turn off the Adobe Photo Downloader start-up item.
1. Right-click the Adobe Photo Downloader located on the far right of the Windows Task Bar.
2. Choose Exit.
Note: This turns off the Photo Downloader for your current Windows session, only.
Solution 2: Turn off the Adobe Photo Downloader permanently.
1. Choose Start > Run, and type in msconfig. Click OK.
2. Choose the Startup tab.
3. Uncheck apdproxy. Click Apply, and then click OK. Restart Windows.

HT5361 Mac OS X Mail 4.6 sends emails that other email clients don't recognize as attachments, but as embedded pictures. Mail 6.6 does not have this problem.

My Mac OS X (with 10.6.8 software) Mail 4.6 sends emails that other email clients don’t recognize as attachments, but as embedded pictures. When I receive emails from others, I do not see whole image either. I did change "rich text" to "plain text" in message format - no results.
My daughter has Mac (10.8.5) with Mail 6.6, which does not have this problem. Can I install 6.6 instead of 4.6 or do you know other fix?
Help, please?
Thanks,
Andrew

I've been having the same problem now for several months (at least 3-4 if not more). And the frequency of Mail quitting is increasing, several times in a few hours. And as with you, no particular message pops up before hand or not even the beach-ball spinning first and then quitting.
I too have been sending Apple the crash reports. However, I have not contacted Apple Support yet. Hoping to find the answer in this forum, but again, no luck.
If you have found a solution since then, please advise. Or if anyone else out there knows of this issue and can help, that would be greatly appreciated.

How do I tell Leopard NOT to connect to a particular local drive?

How do I tell Leopard NOT to connect to a particular local drive?

I don't want my Leopard computer to automatically connect as guest to the Tiger computer.
Leopard does not automatically connect to it. If it shows in the sidebar you are not connected to it. The sidebar is just showing what computers on the network are available to connect to. To connect to it you still have to click on the connect button.
To stop it showing the sidebar you have to turn off file sharing on that mac.

Mail can't send email from 123-reg accounts

Hi all,
I've got an issue with Mac Mail can’t send email from 123-reg accounts.
I know there is a lot of articles on simular matters and some I have tried out with no luck, others are just speaking a whole other language.
Any help would be greatly recived, here's my situation below:
Running a iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core i5 on OS X 10.8.3
I’m using 3 accounts on Macs Mail client, one is my iCloud account that is working fine and the other two are my 123-reg accounts that I use for business purposes. I’ve been working like this for a couple of years now and about 6 months ago I upgrade my operating system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
2 or 3 months ago I randomly got a problem where I was unable to send any emails from my 123-reg account, I could only receive emails. I checked my settings and they were all correct and unchanged so I attempted to delete them and recreate the account but with no such luck.
I then decided to check if it was a problem at 123-regs end and attempted to log into web mail. This worked and was able to both send and receive emails so eliminated that possibility.
I also have these accounts set up on my iPhone, so checked if there was any issues and everything was working fine. I then checked my iphone details and made sure the same was on my desktop and still no such luck.
I’ve tried out some of the articles I’ve found on here (the ones written in plain English) still no results. I’m not very IT illiterate and just wondered if anyone else has got any ideas, whether there is something specific with 123-reg accounts and Mac Mail?
Many thanks.

Thanks
I just had another hunt around looking at posts and discovered that it was because I recently changed to BT Infinity and they had a block on.
I didn't even think to question the ISP.

TS3276 Mac Mail won't send emails with signatures

My Mac Mail won't send emails with signatures. I get the "whoosh" sound and they show in sent mail, but the recipient doesn't receive them until I take off the signature and resend the email. Without a signature, it is received. It never used to be a problem, but started this past month. Please advise!

Did Earthlink have you try using their authenticated SMTP server?
If not, try changing Earthlink's SMTP server settings to the following:
SMTP Server: smtpauth.earthlink.net
Server Port: 25 or 587. Assuming Earthlink is your ISP, 25 should work.
Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): Off or not selected.
Authentication Type: MD5 Challenge-Response. Not sure if this authentication type is available with 10.2 and if not, select Password.
User Name: Your entire Earthlink email address.
Password: The password for your Earthlink email account - the same password used to check the incoming mail server for new messages.

IBook. Mac Mail. Can send email.

iBook running OS 10.4.11. Mac Mail. Can send email, but not receive. Slow to send, goes to Outbox first. Can send and receive email via WebMail. Any ideas please.

Is your Mail set up properly? It is possible that you have set up the wrong SMTP & POP3 servers.

How do I stop my computer from sending emails to everyone in my address book

How do I stop my computer from sending emails to everyone in my address book? This is happening when I am not on my computer.

I've been using a local isp and have recently gotten my mac email up and running. I think you are correct about the limitation being from the local isp as I was able to right click and send to all 67 via the Bcc. Good info, thanks.
I promote the use of Bcc any chance I get. Seems so many out there just don't understand the forward/reply issue where names are scanned from nearly infinite lists of forwarded emails.
