How to make email client account setup automatically select inbound mail and smtp server.

I have the mail service successfully running on OS X Server 10.8.2. I am able to send and receive email as well as setup email accounts on various email clients (iphone, ipad, mac, etc). I notice that when I set up a new account that I have to specify both the inbound and smtp mail servers as well as specifying the user id for each. I am using an SSL certificate that appears to be working. The ports are selected (993/995 and 587) automatically and the default is to use SSL.
However, when I set up a Comcast account - (configured as "other") - I only have to enter Full name, email address and password - and from this it is able to determine that the incoming mail server is "mail.comcast.net" and outgoing smtp server is "smtp.comcast.net". It also fills in the userid and password for both inbound and smtp servers - as well as the ports. I have been trying to get this to work automatically when setting up accounts for my mail server - but have not been able to figure out how to do this - or if it is possible.
In googling - I have found that I can set up several different SRV records such as (_submission._tcp, _imap._tcp, _imaps._tcp, _pop3._tcp, _pop3s._tcp) and these are supposed to provide this functionality to email clients that are able to use the SRV records. I have set these up externally at my registered domain provider - and I am able to query them via nslookup, dig and host.
Is Comcast using some other special method of providing the server names to the mail client setup - or am I doing something wrong - or is this a functionality that needs to be supported on the mail server side as well. I am relatively new to mail servers and trying to work my way through the learning process.

Understand the functionality you are wanting, basically one can use Outlook / Exchange mail server as an example. It just happens.
As I understand in the background the DNS _SRV records point to a machine which serves up an XML file and that is the information which tells the client how to configure itself.
I did some research before posting my first reply and found that, in the Apple client situation, even when someone setup the the SRV records + the XML it didn't work seamlessly.

Here's some other links that give some more background.

http://www.virtuworks.com/how-to-setup-outlook-autodiscovery-for-your-domain/
If you were going to persue it you will need to find out the format for the autodiscovery XML file. Also the XML file will have to be hosted on your server, you couldn't likely put it on the public DNS server.

How do I get a field to automatically select a value and change color based on another automatic field?

Here is the situation:
I have a row on a form called Finding Risk Rating. In this row are four fields: Probability, Severity, Risk Rating, Color.
Probability is a drop down menu with the following values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Severity is a drop down menu with the following values: A, B, C, D, E
Risk Rating is a field that I have a custom calculation script:
var riskRating = this.getField("Probability").value+this.getField("Severity").value;
event.value = riskRating;
So, when I pick Probability = 1 and Severity = D, Risk Rating will automatically change to 1D, etc. This works fine on the surface as far as I can tell.
The part where I am stuck, is the fourth field Color.
Ideally, I want Color to be automatically populated depending on the value of Risk Rating. For example, for 1E I would want it to say "YELLOW" and the field to change color to yellow. For 1A it would be "GREEN" with the color green, etc.
I tried doing an if else for all cases, but it never refreshes to the correct value. I then checked using app.alert to see what fields riskRating and colorRank are (see code below), and I noticed that riskRating never changes, even though the value in Risk Rating changes. Is there a way to order script(s) so that if I execute one, the other will follow? I'm new to scripting for forms and haven't done any programming in 10+ years, so feel free to rip my code in favor or something more efficient, or direct me to a good resource I can learn from.
Here's the basis of what I have for scripting on Color. It's brief because I wanted to test it out before writing every 'if else' statement.
var colorRank;
var riskRating = this.getField("Risk Rating").value;
if (riskRating = "1E") colorRank = "YELLOW";
else if (riskRating = "1A") colorRank = "GREEN";
else if (riskRating = "5A") colorRank = "RED";
event.value = colorRank;
app.alert("colorRank = " + colorRank + ", riskRating = " + riskRating);
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

One problem is if more than one combo box item has the same number associated with it, you cannot simply set the export value to the corresponding number since they need to be unique (or the user interface behaves weird). One thing you can do is set up an object to associate a list item with a value, and look up the value in code when a list item is selected.

How to make the GL account discription possible in FAGLL03 line item display?

Dear Experts,
    Could you tell me how to make the GL account discription possible in FAGLL03 line item display?
    I checked the layout, there is no account discription.
    How should I do?
Thanks!
Xinling Zhang

Hi
One you execute FAGLL03, go to Settings>Layout>Current Header Rows
You can add some predefine characteristics here.
I am not sure why the hyperlink is not working at your end. But you can search the SDN for special fields in FAGLL03 and you can get lot of posts for this document.

How to make VPN client auto timeout when it still idle?

How to make VPN client auto disconnect when it still idle?
Hi,I found some user still connected the VPN evenif they dose not use the VPN resouse.
I try to set a "idle timeout" for the VPN configuration.
We use PIX515 8.0.3 and CISCO ACS 4.2 for the VPN's connection and authentication,and the user use cisco vpn client for the connection.
I have tried many methods,but all failured.
First,I configed "vpn-idel-timeout 5" on PIX.It can not worked.
so,I add Radius(CISCO VPN 3000/ASA/PIX 7.0+) attribute "[026/3076/050] Authenticated-User-Idle-Timeout" on CISCO ACS,It still not worked.
And I also add IETF RADIUS Attributes "[028] Idle-Timeout" on group setting on ACS,it always not worked.
i found in vpn client's statistics,it always has some byte sended or received, i thought it maybe IPsec keepalive message or Radius message.
This maybe the reason because the PIX or ACS think the vpn user is keep working.
Can someone tell me how to make a "idle time out"?
best regard.
Roger

here is the configuration on PIX,
group-policy DfltGrpPolicy attributes
wins-server value 10.0.0.67 10.0.0.68

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?
I wrote this, but it does not work:
btn_emailinfo.on (release) {
getURL("mailto:"[email protected]");
}

I am guessing you put that on a frame?
If so, the syntax is as follows:
btn_emailinfo.onRelease = function(){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
Though, if you are placing it directly on the button itself,
the syntax is:
on(release){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
}

How to make the GL accounts as CO-PA Relevant

Dear Gurus,

Regards
VSK

Hi,
Assignment of SD Condition Types to Value Fields: T Code KE4I
1. To transfer condition types for sales revenues and sales deductions to COPA, you need to make sure that the condition types and linked to an account in FI that is also defined as a cost element of the category "11" (revenue element) or "12" (sales deduction) in CO. These condition types must be assigned to a CO-PA value field. Condition types linked to FI accounts that are defined as cost elements of another category are not transferred to CO-PA, even when the condition type has been assigned to a CO-PA value field.
2. Condition types such as "VPRS" ("Cost") that are defined as statistical in SD are always transferred to CO-PA if they are assigned to a value field.
3. All condition types that you want to transfer to CO-PA must be active in the SD pricing
Thanks and Regards

How to make 2 clients on same VLAN communicate to each other when tunnel-loop-prevention is enabled?

Requirement:
How to make two clients on same VLAN communicate to each other when tunnel-loop-prevention is enabled on tunneled-node configuration at controller?
Whenever we enable tunnel-loop-prevention on controller while we configure tunneled-node, the communication between two tunneled-node client on same VLAN is blocked or dropped.
If the tunneled-node clients are of different VLANs then they can communicate between them even when the tunnel-loop-prevention is enabled on the controller.
Solution:
To make two tunneled-node client on same VLAN to communicate between them, we need to enable "local-proxy-arp" for the interface VLAN on the controller.
Once it is enabled now the tunneled-node clients on same VLAN can communicate between each other.
Configuration:
To enable "local-proxy-arp":
Get to the interface of the VLAN on the controller
Example :
(config)#interface vlan 5
(config)#ip local-proxy-arp
To enable tunnel loop prevention on controller
(config)# tunnel-loop-prevention
Verification
Show commands:
To check if tunnel-loop-prevention is enabled or disabled
#show tunneled-node config
Tunnelded node Server: Enabled
Tunnel Loop Prevention: Enabled
To check if local-proxy-ap is enabled:
#show interface vlan 5
Look for in the output "ProxyARP enable"

1. First off, which line is line 88? Line numbers would be useful. Also, indenting your code properly would make it easier to read.
2. Your 'while(!str.equalsIgnoreCase("close"))' will always fail with a NullPointerException because 'str' is initially set to null.
3. Your 'while(true)' loop worries me. How does it exit? Relying on an exception is usually very bad practise.
4. You are not handling SecurityExceptions. While it's unlikely to happen on your machine; it could easily happen on another.
5. It might be worth indicating the actual exception thrown in your "Failed to accept client" message. accept() can throw three different types of IOException.
6. All the threads you create will be called "New THREAD", which doesn't provide much value.

Hi Barry,
What do you mean "it doesn't work"? What kind of errors are you seeing? Also, you only specified the file name (data.vi) when opening a VI reference. Try specifying the whole path to the VI. Also, you might want to make sure you are able to ping your other computer from the start (to see if this is a LabVIEW issue or a network issue).
Hope this helps,

I don´t know how to make a phone call whit my ipad...and how to sent a message? is it possible?

i don´t know how to make a phone call whit my ipad...and how to senSeleneGMt a message? What do i need? or is it impossible?

You can't; not natively, anyway, since the iPad is not a phone. If you want to make a call, you'll need to use some third-party Voice-Over-IP service such as Skype.
I'm not sure what you're asking when you ask about sending a message. If you mean a text message, you can either use iMessage, which can send messages to other users also running iMessage, or you can look in the iTunes Store for SMS apps, a few of which are available. They use separate services to actually send the message and so require an Internet connection, either WiFi or 3G.

How to send email to a SMTP server over a secure channel using STARTTLS setting of a send connector (Exchange and SMTP server are in the same domain)

I’m trying to send email using exchange send connector STARTTLS setting to the SMTP server. I have read multiple documents on configuring TLS for send connector, but they talks about outbound connections to internet facing servers. My Exchange 2013 and SMTP
server is in the same domain (let’s say A.com) and I’m creating dummy domains on my SMTP server (e.g.
[email protected],
[email protected] ) and their respective send connectors on the exchange server end. In the smart host section added the IP address of the SMTP server and in the scoping section added the SMTP domain address (e.g. dummy1.local ). In the FQDN field, added
the FQDN of the exchange server 2013 which certificate is enabled with SMTP service.
Could you tell me a step by step procedure, where I’m going wrong or any extra settings needs to added?
Presently, it is giving me an error that 530 5.5.1 TLS encrypted connection is required.
Note: I’ve created the Microsoft CA certificates for the SMTP and exchange servers and imported them in the personal certificate container. In which, the exchange certificate is created with FQDN name of the server and enabled for the SMTP service.
I’m using OPENSSL certificate for making the SMTP server TLS enabled. (let me know, if I need to import the OPENSSL certificate anywhere on the exchange end)?
Thanks!

-IgnoreSTARTTLS is set to false on the send connector properties.
I'm trying to established a HTTP over TLS connection. I'm not using mutual TLS between these two server.
The send connector protocol logging is attached as below,

How do I set up a mail server and SMTP server to send messages to other mail servers at mavericks

How do I set up a mail server and SMTP server to send messages to other mail servers at mavericks

You need to get the settings for your email from your email provider and enter them in Internet Accounts (System Preferences). Many of the common systems are already available, all you need is a password and an email address to set them up.

Can same mail accounts be set up on Mail and Outlook?

After migrating PC files over to new iMac I have just about worked out where my documents are now my problem is that my two email accounts have set up in Mail and I want them in Outlook but Outlook won't recognise my passwords! Anyone out there know why this is and how I set up my email accounts on Outlook - I need all of my folders and history from the PC to transfer to Outlook too - unfortunately folders are lost in Mail. Is the problem that the accounts are already set up on Mail and can't be set up on Outlook too? Obviously I am grasphing at straws here...please help thanks .

No one got any ideas ? Have i explained my problem well ?
I guess another way of phrasing the question would be if I were to re-format my hide drive and re-install everything, what files would I need to save in order for my itunes to work in exactly the same way and have the same settings as before the re-format.

To change it on and iOS device, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your iCloud email account, tap you iCloud account at the top, tap Mail at the bottom, then enter the name you want to use in the Name field at the top.
To change the From name on your Mac Mail, go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the top right and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done. Then quit Mail on your Mac and re-open it. Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.
