Ical reminders-junk mail

I set an ical event to alarm-email. It sends the email, but it always shows up as junk mail. I'm using the mail ver 3.3. Why would a message sent from your own calendar show as junk mail? Thanks.

The filters say that anyone in my address book should not be listed as junk. My own email is in my address book, and that is the what I'm using to send the reminder. So I still don't understand why these reminders end up in junk mail. I have clicked on the "not junk" tab but that hasn't worked. Thanks anyway for the reply.

Ical alarms-junk mail

I set email alarms using Ical. They always show up as junk mail even though the sender(myself) is in my address book. Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks -
That address is indeed in my address book under my entry as the home address. Another, which is my work email address also goes to junk when I use it for alarms. I do have filter set to exclude addresses in my address book. I'm not sure how to set my card to "My Card" - could you elaborate? The entry in address book has a person icon rather than a card and there is a small "me" in the corner of my address book thumbnail pic, so I'm guessing this setting is also correct.
Thanks again

Junk Mail from Ical?

I set up email reminders in ical. These reminders always show in the mail program as "junk". I did check the junk mail filters. These reminders are being sent from someone in my address book (me). I also click "not junk" on the message. But my own calendar reminders still show up as junk mail. What is wrong with this program?

I am having the exact same issue.
I have Reset Junk filtering and have it set to 'Move it to the Junk Mailbox'. Mail still treats email reminders from myself, as junk.
Anyone have any suggestions how to fix this? Alarms/Reminders that you don't get to see are pretty useless.

Mail marks iCal email notifications as junk mail

I suppose this could be an iCal problem or a Mail problem, but email notifications that come from iCal are marked as junk mail every time. Yes, I have "Sender of message is in my Address Book" checked off in Mail preferences, and my address is listed in Address Book. If I send an email from me to me via Mail it is not marked as junk, but from iCal it is always marked as junk. I found posts about this going back many years, surely there would be a resolution by now?

Hey there,
I had the same issue and was able to find the answer in another discussion.
You just need to highlight the card in Address Book and then choose "Make This My Card" in the "Card" menu.
Best,
Tom

Junk mail appears in iCal

I was very surprised when I opened my calendar today and found that an event had been posted - and the event must definitely have originated through the mail application. It was one of those endless junk mails offering a job and fast money. What is going on?

Fulltimemom,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Open iCal>Preferences...>Advanced and make sure that "Automatically retrieve invitations from Mail" is unchecked.
Also check Mail>Preferences>General>Add invitations to iCal:>Choose "Never"

Keep receiving ical reminders on my yahoo account?

My dad got a new apple computer a year ago, and I have never used one before. I must have set the ical to remind me of important dates. Instead of staying on my dad's calendar, it has been forwarding reminders to me on my own computer in my inbox; additionally, it is messaging my dad's mail account. (I thought it would all just remain on the calendar and I was not forewarned of this.)

Just wondering if anyone else has found a resolution to this issue. I haven't been using alarms in a few months, but recently (last week) re-enabled a few and sure enough, these reminder alarm message are being filtered to my Junk Mail folder. My wife's experiencing the same problem on both her Cube and tiBook (using .Mac's syncronization between both).
Thanks,
Ian

Apple's Mail program can't handle junk mail

I've had this machine for almost two months now and I'm STILL having problems with Apple's mail program:
1. It doesn't recognize junk mail. Although I've been in "train" mode for almost two months, it STILL doesn't recognize ANYTHING as junk mail, even things that are obviously junk, and even duplicates of messages already marked as junk.
2. Although I've set my preferences to delete junk mail on exit, the program doesn't delete junk mail. It doesn't matter whether I mark the messages manually as junk and leave them in my inbox, or if I mark the messages as junk and move them to my junk mailbox, or if I just move the messages to the junk mailbox without marking them as junk. The messages sit in the junk mailbox until I delete them manually.
I'm EXTREMELY disappointed with Apple and Apple software and the fact that almost NOTHING works as expected or advertised. I have problems with Mail, Safari and iCal to name just a few...

I am not understanding any of these problems, as Mail marks Junk quite reliably for me (and I think many others). Also, no problems with Safari nor iCal here.
If you have Junk in Training, as you report, then this would explain some of the behavior. While in Training vs Automatic Mail does not create a Junk mailbox in the the account folder, and thus the setting to delete messages from the Junk mailbox would not do anything. If you have yourself created a mailbox named Junk, Mail would not use it for its own purposes.
I think there are a number of misunderstandings on your part (Junk filtering with Mail's own procedure vs manually created Rules for one), and thus I cannot easily tell what may do the most good to correct things.
More info, please.

Junk mail filter not working properly

About two weeks ago mail started marking lots of messages as "Junk". Even messages (reminders) I send myself are marked as junk. This is entirely new and I don´t have a clue of what triggered the change in behavior.
I have turned off the junk mail filtering, but that is not my preferred solution.
Any hints on what might be going on?

I too have a problem with junk mail, but it is a little different. Every time I click junk mail for a mail message that is junk, nothing happens. What I mean by this is that the same emails from the same sources continue to come into my inbox without being filtered out. Is there some setting that I need to check to have mail filter out my junk?

Junk Mail filters

I have been having a problem with the Junk mail filters in Mail. When I send myself an e-mail, such as when an iCal event reminder is in the form of an e-mail, the message gets pushed into my junk mail folder. Every time it has happened, I click on the "Not Junk" button, but the next time I send one, it goes into the Junk folder again. This happened with OS 10.4, and I thought the upgrade to 10.5 would fix it, but it's still happening.
Has anyone else had this experience? If so, did you find a solution to the problem?
Thanks
Kevin

if so, I'd love to hear it as well. I made a big effort to convert my old email life from my pc to the new mac, and figured imail would serve me. Small as it is, this unreliable junk filter may force me to switch again. I hate that.

Junk mail just does not work as it should

I've had this for ages and just put up with it.
I have my jumk mail settings set for
Enable: the following types of messages are exempt from junk mail filtering: sender of message is in my address book (and in previouos recipients).
I assume that this means that anyone sending a message who is in my address book will not then appear as junk. This does not happen and despite repeated attempts to assign each one as not being junk it never learns as I thnk it is supposed to. A very few of my incoming messages of people who are in my address book do not appear as junk but I can't see a pattern.
Over time I have tried all kinds of ways to set the various settings but to no avail and now I really think that I should try and sort it as it is low grade annoying. I would appreciate any help anoyne could give.

hey are you still having trouble with your ical publishing? it looks like it needs more testing...but try this format of the web address.
http://ical.me.com/USERNAME/CALENDARNAME
It looks like iCal hasn't updated when you updated your operating system if it's still writing to a .mac address like you suspected. The most recent version is 4.0.1. If you need to update your actual application you can try copying from another computer with snow leopard installed (I've tested this), or reinstalling Snow Leopard. (not a fun option for such a small issue I know)

How do I set the account used for ical reminders?

Hello folks,
On my wife's computer we have OS X Lion.
She has two email accounts loaded on Mail, using IMAP. These are Gmail accounts. I will refer to them as account #1 and #2
In iCal she has calendars loaded from Gmail account #1.
We have noticed that all her iCal event reminders are being sen to account #1 using account #2 for the sending. Even though the event is on a Gmail Calendar on account #1.
She has no calendars loaded from account #2 (as she does not use calendars on that Gmail account).
Neither of us can figure out why or who iCal is sending out reminders via her second gmail account, for appointments set in the calendar of her #1 email account. We can not see why logically iCal and/or Mail is linking these accounts in this way.
We'd like to have it so that the reminders are only sent using account #1.
Can anyone tell me how or why this is occurring, and what I can do about it?
Thank you so much,
Jonathan

If you are referring to your "iCloud account", then simply tap "settings / iCloud" - delete the account you are currently logged in with, and add the correct one.

Client doesn't activate junk mail handling

Hi All
This started in the GWIA forum, but there we found out that this was not the GWIA not doing things correctly.
I have a spam filter set up in front of the GWIA (ScrollOut F1).
That together with GWIA tags mails as spam, but when it arrives in the client the properties shows
Junk Mail Handling Evaluation Results
Message is eligible for Junk Mail handling
x-spam-flag was set for this message
So it seems that the GWIA does it correctly, and marks the mail.
Then below I see this:
Junk Mail settings when this message was delivered
Junk Mail handling disabled by User
Junk List is not enabled
Junk Mail using personal address books is not enabled
Junk iCal Mail using personal address books is not enabled
Block List is not enabled
If I look in the Administration Console Client Options I see this:
Enable Junk Mail Handling (X)
Enable Junk Mail using Junk Mail Lists ( )
Enable Junk Mail using Personal Address Book ( )
Enable Junk Calendaring using Personal Address Book ( )
Auto-Delete after: (31) days (X)
Enable Blocked Mail using Block Mail Lists ( )
The client is version 14.0.1 13-11-2014. PO GroupWise Agent Build Version 14.0.1 -118418, GroupWise Agent Build Date 11-12-14, GroupWise Resource Build Date 04-07-14.
I've also tried locking the settings on domain and on user in client settings, but that didn't help.

Hi,
Are you in a position to open a Service Request with Novell Technical Support?
I have picked up that this "bug" has been reported previously to Novell, but I can't see the details of it. I'm going to ask around in the backrooms to see if I can get this tested for you. I'll let you know if I get any information back from the kind folk that I'm asking.
In the interim, test with "Enable Junk Mail using Junk Mail Lists" and see if it makes any difference. I know that in the GWIA thread I asked you to turn this off, but I was just testing something.
Keep us up to date with your testing progress.
Cheers,

Junk mail appears in Home calendar

When Mail processes incoming e-mails as 'junk' they appear as Events and ToDo's in iCal's Home calendar. I can delete this folder but it is recreated and repopulated as soon as new junk mail exists. I would appreciate any help stopping this behaviour.
Thanks

That's not an easy question to answer.
In today's batch, the ToDo's are all 02-Mar-07. The dates for the events correspond to the dates on which the emails were sent (26-FEb-07 and 27-Feb-07 for today's lot). With one exception, all the events are one minute long.
Both the ToDo's and the events are assigned to a new 'Home' calendar. This is the one that I can delete.

Thunderbird fails to send email when "Scan email for junk mail" option is checked in Server Admin

I have 2 clients that need to send mail through my server, one Mac and one Windows. The Mac uses apple mail and the Windows machine uses Thunderbird.
Apple Mail will send fine, it is set up for "Use Default ports 25, 465, 587" and "Use SSL" and "Authentication: MD5 Challenge-response".
Thunderbird refuses to send and I don't even see any errors showing up in the Console on the OS X server under smtpd entries.
If I uncheck the "Scan email for junk mail" option on the server, then Thunderbird will send fine.
Thunderbird is set up as: "smtp port 587 (default)" "connection security: STARTTLS" "Authentication method: Encrypted Password"
May or may not be relevant: I use virtual domains as well as aliases.
Server: Mac OS X Server version 10.5.8

Solved it, looks like maybe the smtpd settings for sasl authentication may not have been correct. I followed everything in http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/41/ the "Frontline Spam Defense for OS X server" guide and now can send mail just fine from Thunderbird Winodws and from Apple Mail.

How can I migrate my junk-mail settings from one Mac to another?

I would like to move my junk mail settings from one Mac to another. I found this article (https://kb.siteground.com/how_to_synchronize_the_junk_email_settings_in_mac_mail /), but can't locate the file indicated in the article, so I suspect that the article is out of date (though it's not dated).
Both machines - MacOS 10.9.5; Mail 7.3.
Any insights much appreciated!
Best,
Doug

Make your user library visible and see if you can find it.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library.
