How to migrate addresses Mail remembers, into Address Book?

So I just discovered I could make mailing lists using Address Book, but that leaves me with a giant task. Since I started using Apple Mail, I've entered many addresses which Mail now remembers, but ... Mail does not automatically migrate the remembered addresses I've entered in its To/Cc/Bcc header lines, into Address Book. So, I will have to enter the addresses I want to put in a group, into Address Book manually, unless ... someone knows how to transfer Mail's remembered addresses (i.e. the dropdown choices Mail gives you when you start typing a name/address it has seen before) into the Address Book application.
Also I've never been able to determine if there is any way to delete or change the addresses which Mail remembers. I now have a bunch of addresses for people who have changed their email address, and their past addresses appear in the dropdown list when I start typing their name. Anyone know how to manage Mail's remembered addresses?

This didn't work for me. I highlighted a bunch of addresses in the 'previous recipients' list, clicked 'Add to Address Book' then closed out and looked in the address book. None of the names were to be found. Noting that the functionality of the 'add [address] to Address Book' dropdown is also missing, is there currently some incompatibility between Mail (v4.4) and Address Book (v5.0.3) that needs to be remedied?

How do I import addresses from Word into Address Book?

I have all my addresses formatted as a label document in Word (so I can print on Avery labels). How can I import this information into Address Book?

You will need to convert the file so it appears something like this:
LastName<tab>FirstName<tab>Address<tab>City<tab>State<tab>Zip
Aalberg<tab>The<tab>3451 Avon Way<tab>Burbank<tab>CA<tab>91564
Jones<tab>Sam<tab>11112 First Ave. NW<tab>Atlanta<tab>GA<tab>30022
The above is the general format required. The typical way of doing address labels in Word is to create a mailmerge database that would be formatted like the above. Then you create a mailmerge document in which the fieldnames on the top line of the database are inserted in the desired format. You then create the output file by doing a mailmerge. Apparently you are doing it the brute-force way.
I hope this makes it clearer for you.

How can I import multiple email addresses in cc field of MAIL email into Address Book or Contacts?

Hello...Mail and Address Book used to have a great feature where when you received an email (in Mac MAIL program), if there were multiple emails I'm the "to" or "cc" fields, you could select them all as a batch and drag them into Address Book and it would add them all to Address Book. Now it doesn't seem to let you do it as a batch...you have to click each email address and select "add to address book".
Does anyone know of a workaround, or an AppleScript, or third party app that would allow users to add email addresses to AB in a batch from a MAIL email?
Thanks!

Try this.. Click the first in the CC field hold Shift, Click the Second Third, Fouth, Fifth and so on... click right Mouse select add to Contacts.

How to :Migration from existing 595 into new 595 in RAC?

Hi all,
This is the bit complicated task for me(i.e) first let me explain our environment
We are having 595 two instances (RAC) and 8300 is our storage due to the position we are not able to enhance the memory and CPU in this existing 595 Server.So what we are planning to make another 595 servers with some high configuration?
Since this is new area for me dont know any idea of how to migrate these into new 595 Servers.
fy.i storage will not get any change it will be as it is.
I need any docs or anyone pls share their ideas and steps how they did(suppose if anyone did this already)
Waiting For your reply.
Thanks & Regards
M.Murali..

If your objective is to replace the exiting 595's with new one's then follow the steps below :-
1. configure both the new servers (595) for RAC installation - follow the pre-install steps required for installing clusterware etc. e.g. storage, network, ssh etc..
2. add both the new servers as a "node3" and "node4" into the existing 2-node cluster - follow the "node add" procedure in the documentation
3. turn-off the first 2 nodes on old servers (node1 and node2)
4. test your application with only the nodes...
5. remove the old nodes using "node delete" procedure given in the documentation

How can I copy a mailing list into address book without having to type them individualy

Hi
I have a mailing list and I would like to send emails to everyone on the list in one go, I copied and pasted the list into my email, but can I have this group somewhere so that I can just call it up like an ordinary address from the address book, preferably without having to type every name individualy into the address book. I tried making a group in the address book and pasting the list in without success,if this is possible can some explain how I can acheive this
Thankyou
Richard

Richard,
Unfortunately, you have to add them one at a time - wait a sec... oh, yeah, if the contact is in your contact list it will 'auto-fill' as you begin to type. So if I want Wendy Whatshername, all I have to do is type Wen and the contacts will show up for you to select and auto-fill the name and email address.
Hope this helps,
Clinton

How to turn mailing lists into address book groups

I'm looking for better ways to manage groups in the address book.
I especially need a way add recipients on distribution list for a particular piece of email to a particular group. I have a bunch of implicit groups I've created that way in gmail and I'd like create explicit address book groups out of my (informal) email distribution lists. Mail.app does a good job of downloading the mails via imap or pop, but now I want to select a message and say "Add everyone who received this mail to my alumni [or whatever] group in the address book."
I'm also looking for other ideas, tips, scripts for managing groups in my address book.

OK, how about you open your csv file in Excel and put a tag identifying the custom label in front of each of the items (so eg 05991444555 with label special becomes sp-05991444555), then do your import. Then after the import run an AppleScript to strip the tag and reset the label.

How to define a mail group email address?

Hi,
I have defined several groups and would like to use them as a mail group. By the default the address is [email protected]
I have defined several virtual domains on my server that can accept mails for individual user. I would like to have the following address working [email protected]
How can I set it up as the email cannot be set for groups in the workgroup manager (It is only working for users).
I also tried with the directory utility but I can create an Emailaddress key for a group or an user but it is not taken into account by the mail server. (workgroup manager probably does more than just creating an entry on the open directory :-( )
Thanks for you help !
Frédéric

group addresses have been broken for some time.
I've used scripts to create aliases based on a group name and its members.
Below is a script that I've used on 10.7 with users in LDAP.
Any group which has a comment of 'mail' will be turned into an alias with the proper recipients.
You'll need to run it on a schedule (unless you want to run it manually) and you'll need to modify it for 10.8 and your specific environment.
I'll try to put together a 10.8 version sometime soon...
cd /etc/postfix
# clear current aliases
echo "" > group_aliases.tmp
# Get list of groups with 'mail' in the comment field
gr=`dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -list /Groups Comment | grep mail | awk '{print $1}'`
for group in $gr
   do
      echo $group: `dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -read /Groups/$group dsAttrTypeNative:memberUid | cut -d : -f 3 | grep -v "No such key"` >> group_aliases.tmp
   done
cmp -s group_aliases.tmp group_aliases > /dev/null
   if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
      echo different
      cp group_aliases.tmp group_aliases
      /usr/sbin/postalias /etc/postfix/group_aliases
      /usr/bin/newaliases
   else
      echo same
   fi
exit

How to print editable mailing labels from Address Book?

I am once again working on Holiday Mailing Labels (450 pple) and needing to export editable mailing labels from a smart group in my Address Book. but I can only print out non-editable pdf labels. Is there a way around this? Editable labels are vital!! Can I export my contacts to a file that can be imported into Microsoft Word Labels Mail Merge?

I have the same problem. After much searching for easy solutions, I just added a user account on my mac, and use the address book/contacts for the end of year mailings. This meant copying, manually, a lot of contacts! At the same time as they were entered the edits were made. I can make edits ongoing within these lists without changing the contacts in my personal user account. There oughta be a better way!!!

You could however write a script to convert the sendmail format to the appropriate Sun LDIF format and import the information manually.
It is trivial to reverse-engineer the Sun PAB format/structure.
You may also want to see if this user created any tools to achieve your goal:

Created my own subscription box in animate, how to embed the mail code into the symbols?

So i think I am on the right track, I am trying to embed my mailchimp code into my animate site, and I decided to build my own text box and button in animate and convert them into symbols. Both text box and button or inside of a bigger symbol so that they stay in a responisive design. however when I tryin and plug in the mail code it just puts the subscription box behind my symbols. Is this because html code doesnt work in animate or am I just really stupid and am doing it all wrong? Ha probably the second part, . Any help would be great!.

Hi, Kyle-
What's happening is that you're inserting static HTML into the base HTML of your current project. We treat any third party static HTML as underneath all managed elements. You can find out whether or not it's being treated as static by hovering over the element in the elements panel:
One thing you can do is to dynamically insert your mailchimp code into a div by changing the html() property of that div using jQuery. So, something like this:
In compositionReady:
sym.$("myDiv").html("INSERT MY FORM CODE HERE");
Hope that points you in the right direction!

How to Migrate Apple Mail to Opera Mail?

I'm trying to migrate all my mail from Apple Mail to Opera Mail. Opera allows for this but you have to give it the file/directory. I used their initial suggestions to get ~/library/preferences/com.apple.mail and that got the most recent inbox things, but didn't move things in my folders or any of the sent mail.
Has anyone done this? If so, can you please share how you accomplished it?
Thanks,
kork

Actually I did find a way to do this. While tedious and laborious it works like a champ.
Step 1. In Apple Mail, for every folder you want to save in Opera, you highlight that folder, then right click and choose "Archive Mailbox" then save it to your desktop or whatever. Rename that desktop folder to whatever you want to import as. Repeat this for each mail folder you want to migrate.
Step 2. Go to Opera and select File->Import and Export->Import Mail. From the next dialog, choose Import generic mbox file and click Next.
Then click the "Add Folder" button and select a folder from the exported mail you selected in step 1. Repeat the add folder and selection for the folders you are importing. For "import into" you can either choose a "new account" (in which case it will attach the messages to an already existing account you have) or you can choose "new account" which will attach them to "localhost". If you do import most than once, be sure to select the right account each time. If you select new account every time it will just create another account and you won't be able to change it.
That's it. As I said, it's laborious, but its the only way I could find to do this without using some third party program.
Cheers,
Kork

How to make my mail go into the trash when I select the trash can icon

Nonsensically the default behavior for mail from google (setup either as push or fetch) is for the trash can icon to archive the mail (drop it into all mail) rather trash it. I was able to correct this behavior for the fetch mail account but for the mail setup as push I see no option. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
What kind of drugs were the designers on where they thought I would like to either archive all my junk mail or better yet have to login from my desktop and re-review it and then delete it again. That sounds GREAT for productivity! ***?

tikvenik wrote:
This is definitely an apple problem and not a google issue as plainly demonstrated by the fact that there is a setting located at:
settings -> mail, contacts, calenders -> "account name" -> Advanced -> Deleted Mailbox
It defaults to "all mail" but you can correct it to "Trash"
The option simply isn't there for accounts setup as push. I am absolutely dumbfounded by this. How can they not fix such a simple yet ridiculous problem? There is no functionality to delete mail from my iphone.
An option that's there when the account is IMAP but not there when the account is Exchange, and somehow that must be the iPhone's fault? When creating a calendar event for a 'local' calendar on the iPhone, I can set two alerts, but when I create a calendar event for an Exchange calendar, I don't have that option and am limited to just one. You might think that's plainly an Apple problem, but you'd be wrong since Exchange calendar events don't support multiple alerts.
Point is, this is more likely a Google issue than an Apple one. Note that Google Sync and Gmail push email are beta products. There are a whole bunch of known issues that pertain to Google Sync and different mobile devices.
But, you cam blame it on Apple if it makes you feel better...
