How to fully sync my Earthlink email account with my Mac's Mail?

I do get the new Earthlink emails in the Mac Mail Inbox, but I would also like every action on the Earthlink, respectively Mac Mail account, to be reflected on the other. I.e. every deletion, send, etc.
As is the case between my Outlook server and client.
Is this posible, and if so how?
Also, the default setting being, unfortunately, to delete emails from the server after they have been downloaded, I'd like to put those emails back on the server.
Is this posible, and if so again how?

Not possible with an Earthlink account since an Earthlink account can be accessed as a POP account only.
This is possible with an IMAP or Exchange account.
Also, the default setting being, unfortunately, to delete emails from the server after they have been downloaded, I'd like to put those emails back on the server.
This is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences with the Mail app. The only way to put messages removed from the server after being downloaded by an email client is to send/forward the messages to yourself. Welcome to the limitations with a POP account, which orignated from the early dark ages of email account access with an email client on a computer.

    You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud.  The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

    You will need to find a third party solution for online storage in order to share things like photos with others. Some popular solutions to this are dropbox and sugarsync.
    You cannot sync non-iCloud email accounts across your iOS devices and computers unless they are IMAP accounts like iCloud. If they are IMAP accounts, you will do it in the same way as you have always done.

    On Add Account Auto Account Setup Complete the information that is being asked for, when completed select Manual setup or additional server types, then click Next

    If you have any problems let me know and i will eMail you some screen shots

    Peer-to-peer guidance like this can be very useful, but I can't help thinking why would anyone wish to set up a new email account with BTYahoo. (Or even Yahoo.) Even if it were possible, which I doubt, given that BT is quitting Yahoo, and BTYahoo is dying, who on earth would wish to create the possibility that a brand new email address will get embroiled in the email migration and SMTP problems that seem to be building?

    Does anyone know how to change my mail account on my mac to I cloud? since i have changed to Icloud on my iphone it seems that I can't access the old mailserver anymore. What do I do?
    Thanks for any advise
    Alex

    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
    Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

  • How can I sync music on my Iphone with a Mac that previously had an different Itunes account.

    Im having trouble syncing my playlist to a previously owned Mac. It keeps telling me that my Iphone is already synced to a device and will be erased in order to sync with the previously owned Macs library. Im not concerned about keeping the music already on the previously owned Mac, and would like to keep the $2000 worth of music on my Iphone, I need to be able to back it up though so if anyone could help.

    Yup. You have to update itunes first. heres what I did and I had no problems.
    1 Download newest version of iTunes.
    2 Back up phone to PC.
    3 Hook pc up in a safe place with good wifi and power supply.
    4 Start iTunes.
    5 Hook up phone via usb cable to pc.
    6 click on update button in iTunes.
    7 Let the phone and iTunes do the rest. dont touch your phone until it restarts itself and goes back to the mini tutorial when you first turn it on.

  • How do I sync my Calendar and Contacts with my Mac ?

    How do I sync my Calendar and Contacts between my iPhone4 and my Mac ?  It did until January. Now in iTunes the check box for syncing them is not present anymore. Instead I see the text "Your contacts are being synced over the air" (which doesn't happen).  Exactly the same occurs w.r.t. Calendar.  I do not understand why synchronisation was ok until January, but suddenly it doesn't work anymore.

  • How do I add a second email account to my Mac?

    I have tried looking at videos and posts about how to do it, and followed all the directions that require me to click file, add account and so on.  I have added the account I need, but it will not connect to the internet and I'm not sure why.  It is my school account, and we are required to change the password every 90 days, I dont know if that has anything to do with the activation, but it shouldn't because my friends receive their emails from the same account on their iphones.  If you can help I'd greatly appreciate it!
