How to keep email on AOL server when mirror email on Mail is deleted?

I linked my AOL account to Mail.app (on my MacBook) via IMAP protocol using the AOL Service Assistant. I understand that under this protocol, the emails on my IMAP is a mirror image of what is on the AOL server and vice versa. Hence if I delete any messages in Mail, it is also deleted on the AOL server. Is there any way that I can delete the message in Mail but have it remain on the AOL server?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi DawnMaple!
I don't use Apple Mail, so I can't directly answer your question, but even if there is a procedure to do what you want, after a certain amount of time, I think it may be about seven days, AOL will still remove the Emails from the server,
If you want to retain all of your AOL mail, you can do it with the AOL software, if it is installed.
Open AOL Preferences > Mail.
Select Save the mail I read & Save the mail I send.
Then still in AOL Preferences, use the scroll bar to navigate to Filing Cabinet, and click on that.
Checkmark Automatically delete items in my filing cabinet, and in the contextual menus, below Delete after, select Never.
Click on OK.

  • Keeping emails in mail but deleting them from .mac account?

    My mobile phone wants to download the entire .mac mailbox whenever I check my mail - is the answer then to empty the .mac mailbox everyday? I once did this and lost all the emails in Mail on my computer. I'd like to keep them on the computer, but is this possible?

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    Exactly how you use your Powerbook and phone is the key to arriving at the best way to do this. If you do not have your Mac connected at all times, or at least when needing to use the phone to check email, then you can set up your .mac account as a POP account, rather than .mac, and then remove messages from the server whenever you first download them onto your computer.
    A .mac account, like an IMAP account (it really is just an IMAP account) has its Inbox, and usually its Sent mailbox residing on the server, whereas a POP account has the Inbox, Sent, etc residing on your hard drive. While you can leave messages on the server, when using POP access, so as to download to other computers, the original concept of POP was to download and remove.
    The Mail Application has all the needed selections for instructing the server to keep or remove messages after download, when the account is set up as POP.
    The other choice is to create a New Mailbox, which will be on your Mac, and then move messages from the .mac Inbox to this new mailbox, and thus remove them from the Inbox, which should take them off the server.
    More info, please.

  • How do I configure OS X Server (Mountain Lion) to deliver mail from another domain to my mailbox?

    How do I configure OS X Server (Mountain Lion) to deliver mail from another domain to my mailbox?
    I run a personal Server at my office. It's configured under my own domain as server.mydomain.com. It's setup that it properly receives and sends e-mail for mydomain.com. I use my own mailbox [email protected] to get all my personal mail.
    I'm looking to add another domain as a secondary way for people to get to my content and information.
    I want the same address [email protected] and [email protected] to arrive in the same mailbox at my server.
    How do i do that?

    it does look like you can add virtual domains in the GUI of Server.app on at least some versions, but I don't have an OS X Server 10.8 version handy to check.
    I'd encourage spending some time to learn the command line.  In general, the payoff for learning the command line will be worth the effort expended.  You're running a mail server here and sooner or later the capabilities of the GUI will fail you.  This whether due to a configuration omission in the GUI itself, or due to the need to troubleshoot a malfunctioning mail server, a need to automate one or more of the Postfix-related sequences, or some other IT-related task.  Entirely FWIW, of course.
    Here's a cut-and-paste of the sequence just used to test the command line access to the Postfix configuration, first fetching the current value, appending example.com as the second domain, then displaying the new value, then restarting the Postfix server.  Don't enter the dollar signs; just the postconf command and following.  Adjust example.com to match your domain...
    $ postconf mydestination
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
    $ sudo postconf -e 'mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, example.com'
    Password: {your admin password here}
    $ postconf mydestination
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, example.com
    $ sudo postfix reload
    The Postfix and Postconf commands work irrespective of the OS X Server version; the tools reference the data files as needed.

  • How can I turn off computer screen, when mirroring to apple tv?

    How can I turn off computer screen, when mirroring to apple tv?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't. Mirroring is just what it says, it mirrors exactly what is on your computer screen, if there is nothing on your computer screen, that's what you will see on your TV screen.

    Contact photos assigned in your Mac's Address Book and synced to the iPhone will be thumbnails.
    Photos assigned on the phone itself will be full screen.
    You can edit the photo in your contacts on your phone to use a full-size photo.
    Go to the contact with the small photo. Tap the "Edit" button at the top right.
    Then tap the photo. From the list that pops up, choose the "Edit Photo" button.
    Move and scale as you like and tap "Choose".
    Finally, tap the "Done" button at the top right to save your change.

  • How to keep the JSP content constant when page refresh?

    Hi All,
    When I click page tabs in WLP, it will trigger a refresh event.
    The portlet has a webflow with a refresh event whose destination is
    lastContentUrl(referent-namespace is portal, cloned from portlet2.wf).
    The question is when the page changed, the jsp files which use
    request.getParameter() to get parameters will fail to fulfill what they
    need because the event provide none parameter.
    So that everytime page changed, these portlets will have quite strange
    contents.
    How to keep these content constant when page changed?
    Sincerely,
    Alan.

    The problem is still there if the jsp file is about inserting a new record
    into the database.
    If these parameters are gotten from the session, mutliple insertings will be
    attempted when the portlet is refresh.
    Maybe we can put some control flags in the session to judge the correct
    behavior, but the method results the session full of parameters(control
    flags).
    Or is there any better design?
    Alan.

    Alan,
    You could use the session to put your parameters in instead of letting itride completely
    on the request object. Although, your question is more than just makingthe content
    reappear, it’s about holding state. The project that I am working on, theusers
    decided that they want the page portlets to go back to the "normal" state,not the
    "Maximized" view. So, I put a processor in between the internal.refreshwildcard
    and the Preprocessor input processor so that all the portlets would beseen in their
    "normal" state.
    Good Luck

  • How to keep email messages on iPhone using iCloud

    I can't figure out how to keep opened email on my iPhone.  If I have previously opened message on my iMac and it is in the Inbox on my iPhone, it disappears as soon as I try to open it.    Often I want to re-read a message.   Surely there must be a way to keep them for a period of time on the iPhone.
    John

    You could just pay for backup space (if iCloud offers it). I am only familiar with MobileMe, so I am not sure. This may help.

  • How to use alias in "From" field when I send a mail with utl_smtp ?

    Hi all,
    I'm using a PL/SQL package with an Oracle 11G database to send mails. It works fine but instead of use of my mail in "From" field like "[email protected]" as sender E-mail address, I would like to have "Toto" in the sender address. I tryied to use utl_smtp.mail(l_connection, '<toto> [email protected]') but it doesn't work. The only way I can send mail is when I set utl_smtp.mail(l_connection, '<[email protected]>') directly. When I use the Alias, I have an error from smtp server telling that I use a bad syntax address.
    Does someone know how to use the alias ? Where do I do a mistake ?
    Thank you for your help.

  • How to transfer emails from Mail onto iphone?

    just got my iphone and having fun using it so far.
    i am trying to get work out how Mail works on the iphone in terms of how it syncs with Mail on my imac.
    i really want to load some old emails from Mail (on my imac) onto the iphone. i tried dragging them from Mail onto the iphone icon in itunes but it won't let me do that.
    for example i deleted some emails on the iphone by mistake, yet they are still in my inbox on the imac and wish to transfer them back onto the iphone so i can read thme on the move.
    is there a way to do so?

    Email account mailboxes and messages are not included in the iTunes sync process and you cannot drag or transfer email from your computer to your iPhone or vice-versa.
    The iPhone's Mail app is no different in this regard from using an email client on your computer.
    If you want email account mailboxes and messages to be kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account, you need an IMAP account, not a POP account. Either way there is no option to drag or transfer email from your computer to your iPhone or vice-versa just as it isn't possible to do the same between two email clients on your computer.
