java GetMessageExample mail.wlfdle1.on.home.com (Mail Server Name) <username> <password>
I should be prompted to read the messages in your INBOX. Enter YES to see the message content.

How to get mail from Outlook to SAP GUI (workflow)

Hi All ,
How can we get a mail from outlook or personal mail into SAP GUI .
can it be used as an event for 'wait for event step ' in workflow . ?
Thanks ,
Naval bhatt

Hi Naval,
I just want to clarify some areas from your question:
1. Will a workflow be triggered because of the email from Outlook to SAP? Does it always have to start from the Outlook side?
The integration of SAP Workplace (thru Workflow) and Outlook is possible using the Extended Notification (tcode SWNCONFIG). Here, you can send an email from SAP to Outlook then execute a function from your Outlook message and then you will be directed to the tcode of SAP side (SAP GUI).
Regards,
Reymar

Any one know how to retrieve mail from entourage in Lion?

Entourage is not supported in Lion. I am looking for a solution to import mail from entourage into Mail without going back to Snow Leopard. Any suggestions?

Okay, I am going to try downloading the trial version of Office for Mac with Outlook and see if it will find my Entourage 2004 emails/contacts. Then I will move them to Mail. I will report back if it works. (Not sure if Lion already ate all my email though!)

How to retrieve appoinments from outlook calendar efficiently

I can now successfully retrieve different appointments/meetings from different outlook calendars thanks to the documentation provided online. The only issue I have with is its efficiency. The application could handle 100 users and I believe
that the application would run slow. See the sample code below.
service.AutodiscoverUrl("USER EMAIL", RedirectionUrlValidationCallback);
FindItemsResults<Appointment> appointments = service.FindAppointments(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, new CalendarView("START DATE", "END DATE"));
//check each appointment
foreach (Appointment app in appointments)
"DO SOMETTHING WITH THE APPOINTMENT"
If you need more details please let me know.
Thank you in advance

Another option would be to use the GetUserAvailiblity operation
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/hh532567(v=exchg.80).aspx this won't give you the same level of access to the calendar appointments as FindItems but it will return basic calendaring information for 100 users at a time in one op.
Cheers
Glen

HT204053 How do I set up my Mac to auto retrieve mail from icloud?

How do I set up my Mac to auto retrieve mail from icloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you can't get your mail to work on Snow Leopard after June 30, you might want to try one of these approaches
1. Configuring Mail in Snow Leopard
2. 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

HT201250 How to recover mails of outlook from time machine

How to recover mails of outlook from time machine

This worked for me:
From Time Machine, restore a good backup of the entire "/Users/james/Library/Application Support/Address Book" folder to a different location, like to a folder on your desktop.
(note: the Library folder typically won't show up in Finder. To make it visible, in Terminal, issue this command:
        defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
        then restart Finder: killall Finder )
Go offline. Do whatever you need to do to get completely disconnected from the internet (turn off Wireless, unplug the ethernet cable, etc.). Otherwise, iCloud will immediately overwrite your restore.
Delete the real folder: /Users/james/Library/Application Support/Address Book
Copy your restore (at the different location), to the real location ( /Users/james/Library/Application Support/Address Book )
Restart Contacts. Your restored data you want should be there. Before going online again, Export all these contacts (File - Export - etc...)
Go online again. iCloud will wipe out your Address Book with what's on iCloud. Re-import contacts as needed from your Export.

Export mail from outlook 2002 for Entourage 2004 - how to?

Hi.
I've tried for some time now to export my mail from outlook 2002 for Entourage.. Can't say it's been easy, and I still haven't figured it out.
Can anyone help me with this..
and .. oh yes.. I'm a newbie at mac.. got it for only about a week or so now..
please bare with me..

I don't use contacts but I found this document that should help:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302268
However it does specify Outlook 2003 or later is required to sync contacts so that will be an issue for you.

How to exchange E-mail from Outlook?

After an update of the software of the N97 to version 12, I had to install again the exchange option with Outlook. Contacts, Agenda, Tasks, ... works fine, but I can't get the mail exchange working again.
My purpose is just to load the mails of say 5 days from Outlook into the N97. In the Ovi Suite I have chosen:
Nokia PC sync instellingen: I have chosen E-mail, too; folder: Inbox; exclusief e-mails bigger than 200 kb.
I think I do something wrong on the N97-side (and can't remember what I did right the very first time).
Is it right to chose a mailbox: @home
use as a usernaam the name I use in Outlook
use as a password the password I use in Outlook
use the same server for incoming mails as I use in Outlook
use a standardconnection
Mailboxname: the name after @Home
use as Mailboxtype the same I use in Outlook: POP3
use as port: standard?
First I would like to have this working.
Even better would be if I could use two mailboxes: 1 for e-mails from Outlook; 2 for e-mails from a different source via internet.
Message Edited by loriot on 22-Sep-2009 05:08 PM

As I can't believe that no one here knows the anwser, I think my description and/or title is unclear.
It's about synchronization between the N97 and Outlook, but the problem I have only with synchronizing E-mails between the N97 and Outlook; synchronizing agenda, contacts, tasks, ... works well.

How do I import mail from Outlook 2010?

When I try to import my emails from Outlook 2010 I get the following message:
"An error occurred importing mail from Outlook
Unable to find mail to import. Check to make sure the mail application is correctly installed on this machine."

You'll need to do it from a 32bit version - Mail/Live mail do not recongise outlook 2010 64 bit. Dropping EML files into Outlook folder has always created new messages with attachments - this is nothing new.
ETA: if you can email the messages as attachments, you can drag them from the message and drop them in the Inbox. This obviously works best if there aren't hundreds of messages to convert. :)
There are 3rd party utilties that can make the conversion but they may not work with the 64bit version. See http://www.slipstick.com/config/convmsg.htm for a list of programs that can make the conversion but i don't know if any of them work with 64bit outlook.

I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.
I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:

<Folder path = "Misc">
<Property Name = "Inbox/Misc"/>
</Folder>
<Folder path = "Priority">

</Folder>
</FolderMappings>
Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
Tools console.
Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario. With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc. Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.
