Is it safe to disable outgoing mail from one of my accounts?I

I have two e-mail accounts, but want to eventually stop using one of the accounts and use my gmail account full time.
Sometimes when I send e-mail it will use my old e-mail address as the sending address. I want to cease using the old e-mail address to send mail so it will decrease people replying to and using the old address.
How can I stop that address from being used for outgoing mails? Can I change to "None" for Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), or will that create problems for me?

Hi & welcome to the forums!
See if this from Mail>Help... helps...
"Setting the account your email is sent from
If you have multiple email accounts, *you can choose to send all messages from the same account*, or you can select a different account for each message you send.
To choose an account from which to send all messages, choose Mail > Preferences. Click Composing and choose the account from the "Send new mail from" pop-up menu. By default, messages are sent from the account of the last viewed mailbox.
To choose an account for a message you're composing, click the Account pop-up menu and choose an account.
If the Account pop-up menu is not displayed, click the Customize Header pop-up menu in the header area and choose Customize. Select the checkbox next to Account and then click OK.
To change the order in which accounts are listed in the mailbox list, drag the account mailboxes into the order you want in your Inbox. You can also rearrange the account order in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences."

  • Cant receive e-mails from one of two accounts set up o iphone

    Recently returned from holiday where I connected to an open wifi network and now cannot connect to e-mail server on the main e-mail account on phone. From "settings" wi fi shows not connected and doesn't offer my own home wifi network but does offer a nearby secure one. Any advice?

    This is a wi-fi network connection problem - not a problem with an email account.
    Do you have cellular reception at home? If so, you should be able to receive email with both email accounts as long as you have an internet connection with the cellular network.
    On your iPhone go to Settings > General > Reset and select Reset Network Settings.
    This will delete all wi-fi network settings from your iPhone for every wi-fi network you have successfully connected your iPhone with.
    After doing so check if your wi-fi network is available again to re-join.

  • How do I specify the gmail outgoing server if I have multiple gmail accounts in my mail? I have 2 business accounts and when I send mail from one account, it is sent from the other account and the sending email is not from the correct account.

    I love my apple email and do not want to use google mail on safari. However, I have 2 gmail accounts set up on apple mail, but when I send mail from one of my gmail accounts (I choose the specific gmail account in the drop down window), it actually goes out as if it is from the other gmail account. I can't have that happen because one is my job, the other is a personal business account and unfortunately, the mail from both gmail accounts want to send through the personal business account. How do I make it send from a specific gmail account? I even tried deleting the accounts and setting them up again hoping I set it up wrong in the first place, but to no avail, it is still doing the same thing except this time I set the job account up first and then the personal business account and now everything goes from the job account! The only good thing is that the incoming messages work properly and they go into the correct inbox. Somebody please fix my outbox!

    In Mail Preferences/Accounts/each GMail account, set up the SMTP Outgoing Server for each account separately, going into SMTP name/edit/Advanced and specify the Username of each account.  The Outgoing servers must be two different servers, authenticated by the Username and Password of each.
    Otherwise, the GMail SMTP server will change the from address to that of the account where the SMTP server was setup.

  • Is there a way to disable push mail from Yahoo? It's draining my battery

    I'm on the prepaid plan and every 10-15 minutes my iphone turns on with a "The last transaction cost $0.00" message. I don't mind the message (although it is a bit annoying) but my problem is that this turns the LCD on for about 2 minutes at a time.
    I charged my battery to 100% last night, haven't used it at all today and after just turning it on a few minutes ago I had the "Your battery life is at 10%" message followed by a 5% remaining message a few minutes later.
    I've heard that it's the yahoo push mail service thats causing the phone to give the message (since it connects to the internet). My Yahoo account is my main one and I'd hate to have to login to yahoo's site each time to check it (the email functionality was a big selling point for me with the iphone). ATT/Apple don't seem to want to disable this message/"Feature", so I'm guessing I would need to step in and do something on my end.
    Is there any way to disable yahoo mail from "pushing" messages to my phone? I can hit the Check Mail button if I have to.

    Hi Everyone,
    To give an update on the situation: I disabled the Yahoo account and it seems to make a VERY NOTICEABLE difference in battery life - prior to this my battery would drain quite rapidly but since disabling it it's only lost about 15-20% over the past 24 hours (and thats with using the video/music/internet functions for about an hour and a half).. Prior to this it would have been close to drained under the same circumstances.
    Also, to confirm, the "Your last transaction cost 0.00" messages only appear when accessing the internet manually now. before they appeared every 10-15 minutes with no interaction from myself at all (while it was sitting idle, while watching videos, while charging, while in my pocket, etc..)
    I do have it set to only check Manually but Yahoo would seem to check on it's own even though this setting is checked (I'm guessing it has to do with the Push setting). Aside from draining the battery, it was quite annoying having 30 or so "Your transaction cost $0.00" messages to click through whenever I turned on the phone.
    I did have the screen set to shut off after 1 min, but the 'your transaction cost..' messages would first wake the iphone up, the screen would stay bright for about 30 seconds, dim for about 30 seconds, then turn on bright again for 1 minute until it shut off. I'm guessing the screen (being on for about 10-15 minutes per hour due to this) and the fact that yahoo accesses the internet on such a frequent basis are what cut the battery life down.
    I really wish I could make Yahoo work more like Gmail and have it manually search for new mail

    My mail application on my imac will not download mail from my verizon/yahoo account.  I contacted verizon and confirmed my settings to be correct.  I don't get any error messages, I can send mail but I can't retrieve it from V/Y.  Connection doctor shows all connections with a green light.

  • Problem with outgoing mail server since getting .mac account

    I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me out.
    I've been using Mail for a few years now with several mail accounts. (Yahoo!, gmail, and my own domain mail). I have always been able to choose which account to send my outgoing mail FROM. That is, until I purchased a .mac account.
    Since signing up for .mac all my settings are still there for my other accounts, but I have not been able to send even ONE email from any account except the .mac account.
    I have tried setting up the outgoing mail servers and resetting them, but nothing works. Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?
    I'm starting to consider using Yahoo! mail online for all my mail, but I would prefer to be able to click mailto links and sent right from Mail.
    Thanks.

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    Where and how are you connected to the internet with the laptop, vs the desk top -- same venue -- wireless, etc?
    Is the account you have set up, the same primary account with Charter that you use on the Desktop?
    On the desktop Mac, in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information, when listed as the Outgoing Server, does smtp.charter.net have any Username appended to the name?
    Not sure if it could be case sensitive, but have you tried lower case letters for smtp?
    More info, please.

    i have four accounts on my mail application. but whenever i send a mail from one account, it goes through other account.

    Look at Mail / Accounts, then choose the Account icon. See if the Outgoing server box is set to the correct entry for each of your accounts.

  • Disable Junk Mail Filtering on a Specific Account

    Is there a way to disable junk mail filtering on a specific account?
    My Mac at home is always running Mail, which checks my work email. When I am at work, Mail (at home) sometimes marks a message as junk, and therefore my work mail program (Thunderbird) never gets it.
    I know I could just close Mail when I leave home, but then I'd have to open it again when I get home and that's too much trouble.
    Thanks!
    Powermac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.2)   Mail 2.1

    You're welcome.
    I'm still interested though if this is possible...
    I am almost 100% certain there is not a way to enaable/disable junk mail filtering by account with the Mail.app.
    For now, I've disabled moving junk mail to a different folder,
    so it just marks it as junk and doesn't move it.
    There is no selection to move messages marked as junk to a different mailbox. When Junk Mail is set to Automatic, messages automatically or manually marked as junk are moved to the account's Junk mailbox automatically. When Junk Mail is set to Training, messages automatically or manually marked as junk remain in the account's Inbox mailbox.
    You don't have Junk Mail set to Automatic with the Mail.app?
    If not set to Automatic, messages marked as junk by the Mail.app will remain in the account's Inbox mailbox and will not removed from the server.
    If set to Automatic, you can select "Store junk messages on the server" under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences. This way, any messages automatically marked as junk by the Mail.app will be stored on the server when the message is automatically moved to the account's Junk mailbox which will allow access to the same message when using another email client on a different computer at work.
    This is a benefit of an IMAP type account over a POP type account so you have two options here.
    Set Junk Mail to Automatic and store Junk messages on the server with the Mail.app or quit the Mail.app when leaving home.

  • Is there a way to automatically move mail from one folder to another?

    Is there a way to periodically, automatically, move mail from one folder to another?
    For example, I'd like to move mail from one of my IMAP/Archives folders to my MyMac/Archive folder and I'd like this to happen without intervention.
    Can this be done?

    I'll try to be more specific.
    When I'm done with an email, I archive it.
    Because I have multiple email accounts, this results in emails in multiple Archive folders (one per account). 
    I'd like to have these automatically all moved into one (on my Mac).

    It does not make sense that your ssh does not have a dash capital Y (-Y) option. It is in "man ssh", and my 10.6.6 has the -Y option, and I've had a -Y option since at least Tiger (10.4) days.
    My ssh is in /usr/bin/ssh
    I'm not very good at X11 issues, so I'm just throwing ideas out there.
    Does your broken account have a $HOME/.ssh/config file, and if so, what is in it?
    Does the broken account have any $HOME/.x* or $HOME/.X* files that X11 might be reading to configure your X11 behavior differently from the new test account?
    $HOME/.Xauthority
    $HOME/.Xdefaults-<hostname>
    $HOME/.Xresources
    $HOME/.ICEauthority
    $HOME/.keymap.km
    The above are a few names I found looking through "man X"
    While I'm thinking about it, I assume that when going to the server, you are using the exact same user account on the server, so that you have a constant at least at that end.
    Have you tried trashing your
    $HOME/Library/Preferences/org.x.X11.plist
    file, to see if that is affecting the broken account?
    Again, I am just throwing out ideas to see if anything sticks.

  • How do I force smart mailbox to only show me mail from one mailbox while also showing multiple senders?

    How do I force smart mailbox to only show me mail from one mailbox while also showing multiple senders?

    It would help to post what you've tried. It does, indeed, appear that -h is the switch, and the man includes several examples, so if you've followed the examples and it's not working then that hints that you should pass it back to Apple.
    You also don't say how you're implementing your change. Are you invoking slapd manually, or are you editing /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openldap.slapd.plist ?
    You should be doing the latter, and I'd expect to see something like this:
    <array>
      <string>/usr/libexec/slapd</string>
      <string>-d</string>
      <string>0</string>
      <string>-h</string>
      <string>ldap://x.x.x.20/ ldap://127.0.0.1/ ldapi://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fldapi</string>
    </array>
    (note the inclusion of ldap://127.0.0.1/ as an entry - you'll need to run on localhost as well the .20 address since all the local services will look to localhost)
    You might also need an ldaps URL if you're using SSL but let's walk before we try to run
