How to move e-mail messages between folders?

Coming form the iPhone to Nokia I find it difficult to move messages from inbox to another folder which I have created. Moreover, I cannot create a new folder on my Nokia n97 mini. Please tell me if there is a way to do this. Thanks in advance!

Moving email messages to another file location is not supported. But I don't see a need for it. Creating folders as part of Messaging function is still the same routine, go to My Folders.

How Can I Move Individual Mail Messages to Folders Without Dragging Each One?

In my business, I get a lot of client email. I also create and store a lot of client documents. To manage everything, I have created a main folder named "Clients" on my Mac, and have also created a separate subfolder for each individual client to hold both documents and correspondence pertaining to that specific client. When I want to save an email to that folder, I drag that message to the desktop to then be filed in the individual client's folder. It's a two step process, but one I've been using successfully for some time.
This was not such a big deal before Mail became a beautiful full-screen app. But now, in order to take advantage of Mail's full-screen capabilities, I have to first exit full screen each time I wish to drag a message out of Mail to my desktop. Then once the message or messages have been dragged out, I have to reenable full-screen. That's a couple of additional steps and a real nusiance. I've considered creating a mailbox for each client in Mail, but with hundreds of clients that's really not an option.
My question is as follows: Is anyone aware of any app, script, or add on available for Mail, that would allow me to either move or copy individual email messages directly to my desktop or to a folder without having to go through exiting and enabling full screen each time? Perhaps an app or script that offers a dedicated right-click in the context menu? Or one that offers the "Desktop" as a location in the current right click "Move To" menu? Or that would create a keyboard shortcut that would accomplish that task? I've searched online, but have been unable to come up with anything.
Thanks in advance for your help. Any advice or suggestions you could give would be most appreciated!

Have you tried dragging the mail from the inbox and dropping it where you want to save it - all in the MAILBOXES sidebar? If you make the sub folders visible, you should be able to deposit the mail wherever you like.

It stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Recently, Thunderbird stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Further notes (different user, same problem):
* This is a problem that started in Thunderbird 32
* This involves both automatic (filter) moves and manual moves
* This includes use of keys and hotkeys (the delete key, for example)
* Restarting Thunderbird does seem to "reset" the problem... for a while. I notice the problem most when either I've been away from the computer/program for a while or when waking a laptop computer from a sleep or hibernation state.

How do I transfer Mail Message Rules between Macs?

How do I transfer Mail Message rules from an iMac running OS X 10.6.8 to an iMac running OS X 10.8.5? The names of the plist files don't match.

The easiest way to accomplish this is to *create a new admin account* in the System Preferences/Accounts Pref Pane. Once the new admin account *(make sure the Allow user to administer this computer is checked in the new account)* is set up and performing like it should (by logging into it and verifying that you can actually administer the computer), change your primary account (the account that owns your emails) to a standard account by un-checking the *Allow user to administer this computer* in the Accounts Pref Pane. You can still administer the computer with your standard account, you will have to provide your admin login and password in the Authentication dialog boxes.
Hope this helps.

E-mail messages into folders

I created two folders and now would like to move e-mail messages into them - I can't seem to accomplish this . . . is it possible? Thanks in advance.

Ah...OK...so what you are asking to do is not possible...a folder on your homescreen is not a destination for an email that you want to file. Rather, there is the capability to file messages away within the Messages folder hierarchy. With a message list displayed, press the BBKey and select View Folders...now you will see all of the folders that presently exist. I'm not sure if you even can create any new ones, but these are there. It may be that you must create the folder elsewhere (BES if you have it, perhaps the Desktop Software can help for non-BES, but definitely not BIS I think). See these public KB articles for more information:

How to move contacts and messages from Samsung Galaxy S3 to iPhone5?

How to move contacts and messages from Samsung Galaxy S3 to iPhone5?

As long as you had the Android data synced with your Google account, they should be there when you sync it on your new phone. That is by far the easiest way.
I think there is also an import/export option when you hit the menu button in the contacts app. and you could export them to SD card and import them on the new phone using the same SD card.
Or you can use Mobile Transfer to transfer data between Android smartphone. It is really simple, follow this guide to move contacts from Samsung S3 to iPhone 5.

Mail app dies when moving message between folders

Hi all -
I have had this problem for quite a while, both on an iPad and iphone so it is IOS related. It was in version 3.x and also in the current 4.2.1 version we are using now. Here is the case:
1. Email accounts are all gmail accounts in our case.
2. the task is moving an email from a folder I created in one account, to another folder I created in the same account. I have several gmail accounts..
3. I have yet to do this successfully. I select the email, select move, choose the target folder and wit in two seconds, I am returned to the home screen. Mail is still running in the background but the message goes nowhere. I am able to place messages in folders from the inbox, from spam but not from another folder.
Here are my questions: Does anyone else esperience this bug? What is the reporting site for IOS bugs with Apple, since they are not subscribers to this user forum?
Thanks for your attention

Okay, but first a few things:
A. It won't, in most cases, do a thing for freeing up any significant amount of memory. Very few apps that you quit from the MT Tray/Recents List will be running in the background. In the specific case of Mail, you won't do much of anything at all, as it will be cranking itself up again in the background pretty quickly. It's just what it does.
B. As I stated, the force quit is just the first of a whole series of recommended steps, all of which are laid out in the User Guide and all of which are described, discussed, recommended, etc., dozens of times per day in these and related forums. The sequence is summarized in the following boilerplate:
From the Tips & Troubleshooting section of the User Guide:
*Restarting and Resetting iPad*
If something isn’t working right, try restarting iPad, force quitting an app, or resetting iPad.
*Restart iPad* Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
*Force quit an app* Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the app quits.
+If you can’t turn off iPad or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPad. This should be done only if turning iPad off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.+
*Reset iPad* Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
*iPad Still Doesn’t Respond After Reset*
+Reset iPad settings.+ From the Home screen choose Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. All your settings are reset, but your data and media aren’t deleted.
If that doesn’t work, +erase all content on iPad+. See Resetting iPad.
If that doesn’t work, +restore the iPad software.+ See Removing a Backup.
You can call AppleCare if you like, but will wind up working through some or all of these same steps. The same is true of taking it into a Genius Bar.

How can i move a mail message from INBOX to other Folder

How can I sync Mail database between MAC computers without using IMAP

All, I know this has been asked several times in several forums but I wish to ask it again with a slight twist. The normal question is can I sync Apple mail database (folders) between two MAC computers. The answer is always use IMAP, but unfortunately IMAP is limited on space to store historical emails. I keep mailboxes (on_my_mac) with thousands of emails and attachments that take up a massive amount of space, well beyond any IMAP server allowances. I keep these in order to search conversations that span over many months and sometimes years.
I use GoodSync to sync my normal folders from my MAC Book Pro and my Mac Pro desktop so that I can have the same information (in real time) when working from home on my big machine or at the office using the laptop. This is great except I can not sync the email. I use Outlook 2011 but would prefer to use apple mail if I can sync the two computers (Sync'ing Outlook 2011 is even more impossible).
I also do not want to start and stop my email clients to make this happen and worry about which MAC is running mail and what direction to copy the entire folder structure just to have to follow that up with a new re-build of the index.
Has anyone came up with a viable solution this this problem. Also keep in mind the amount of data - Cloud based solutions are dependent on Internet connection speed (days of initial transfer time and hours to sync) and if I am on my laptop without internet connection, say on an airplane, I would be out of luck so I need the information local on each computer.
Hopefully someone has some ideas, or maybe Apple can take a request for enhancement to Mail to support syncing multiple computers.

I assume that this is a POP system then.
There is no reliable method of syncing the Mail database between 2 Macs. Just how many Gigabytes of Mail do you have?

In search of assistance learning how to modify the mail message from an out of the box SP2010 approval workflow.

So, I have found the article
http://punaro.com/2012/01/derek/modifying-a-sharepoint-2010-workflow-email/comment-page-1/ which appears to walk through the process of modifying an out of the box workflow's mail message.
However, there is a basic problem that I run into before I get started.
I am logged into the system as a regular user (ie not a farm admin, etc.).
I do, however, have full control on the site on which I am working.
I create a custom list.
I create a simple one step approval - sharepoint 2010 out of the box workflow.
I start SharePoint designer and give it the URL of the list. It opens up and I see the various objects on the left side of the screen.
I click right on the Workflows object - which is where the article says I will find the ability to copy and modify the workflow.
All I see is "open", "open in a new tab" and "Pin".
I selecdt open in a new tab - and I get a blank screen labeled workflows that says "There are no items to show in this view".
So, I click on Lists and Libraries, then on the name of my custom list.
When the list displays, the Workflows section of the page has a "Modified Workflow" displayed.
When I right click on it, no menu is shown. When I click on the modified workflow, I get the workflow settings page for that workflow.
I am trying to figure out how to create the copy of the workflow so that I can modify one of the mail messages in SharePoint designer.
Is there someone who has some advice on how to find this copy and modify option? Or perhaps a web site, web forum, article series, or book covering the topic?
Thank you!

Hi lwvirden,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to modify the OOB approval workflow in SharePoint Designer.
After opening the site in SharePoint Designer, just click Workflows in the left panel and then the workflows in the site will load in the right part.
If you want to copy and modify the OOB approval workflow, then you need to right the approval workflow
Approval – SharePoint 2010 under Globally Reusable Workflow. After that you will see the
Copy and Modify button.
Best regards.
Thanks

How can I save mail messages to my computer and not my mail program

My mail program seems to be slow. I'm not sure why. I get the spinning ball frequently. I need to save mail messages sometimes for a few years and there are hundreds of emails. Is it better to save them on my computer than my mail program? I may need to retrieve them at some other time so they need to be readable. Is that possible?
I'm using OS X 10.9.4. I have a 3.06 GHz processor and 12 GB of memory. Thanks

You can select to export a folder to save as a .mbox file. This file would need to be imported if you wanted to view the messages.
Select mailbox (folder)
Under Mailbox in the Menu bar select Export Mailbox...
You might also want to check out the demo for EagleFiler by the author for SpamSieve. You could view and search the messages archived in EagleFiler.

Regarding Mail being slow....
Is it only Mail that is slow? How much free space on your drive? Use Disk Utility to find available space.

How do I delete mail messages without opening?

I'm using Mountain Lion...before ML, when I had a mail message in my Inbox that I suspected might contain malicious content I could use multiple selection to delete it along with another email that was currently in the reading pane but no longer wanted. Mail would not show the malicious email in the reading pane after selection. Now whenever I select a message it's always opened in the reading pane. How do I select a message and delete it without opening it? This is a dangerous omission. Thanks.

James,
