Is .mac mail meant to sync to the mail server ?

Although I am a full .mac member my mail account does not sync! If I delete mails in my mail account on my mac they are not deleted from my .mac account therefore I am finding myself administrating two accounts. Any clues ?
Also, I can only see mails from my in-box in .mac. None of the other folders that I have created in my mail account appear in .mac.
iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

I've noticed some of the same things. First of all, any changes (send mail, delete, etc) done from .mac are reflected in Mail. However, if you want for instance to update the inbox (in Mail) you have to select any other folder then select the Inbox again. This causes that folder to update and reflect changes made from .Mac mail.
Having changes made in Mail be reflected on the .Mac side is a little quirky but I've noticed that the changes are eventually made. If you do something in Mail then go immediately to .Mac the change won't be reflected right away.
I'm still playing with this but it isn't perfect.

    Thanks. Where could I possibly look for a firewall rule. I knowingly did not creat any. My system has internet coming to a Modem which then is connected to a wireless router. I have computers connecting to the router through cable as well as wireless. One of these computers has been our  mailserver using Mercury and Pegasus and that computer has a static IP address. The Mac Mini also has been assigned a different srtatic IP address. I have only set up user account, none of them an email account as I initially expect them to receive only internal mails. Is it necessary that I must set up an email id for each user while setting up the user account. My server id is server.local. So would the email id for local users be [email protected]?

  • How do I delete an iPad from my Mac, like I never sync in the first place?

    How do I delete an iPad from my Mac, like I never sync in the first place?

    I have a pc, rather than a mac, but the process is the same from what i have read on the Apple website. 
    You can restore to original factory settings as ifyou never synced the ipad with a computer by going to settings >reset (last option on the menu) > erase all content and settings. 
    Youcan also do it by connecting your ipad to your computer and choosing toRestore it from the 'summary' menu (below the Update option).  I wasnot able to do it this way because it kept timing out with the iPadsoftware update, but it might work for you.
    These options may take a while if you have lots ofcontent but once it is done it will just as it was when you bought it,with factory settings.
    NB: Note that this process will erase all content, so if you have purchased apps, music etc, be sure to transfer your purchases first!
    This process has worked for me and I am now just syncing my ipad with my desktop instead of my laptop.
    Hope this helps.

  • I have two personal e-mail accounts and a general account that I have synced to my Mail app, but I keep getting emails sent to the non-personal e-mail because they're on the same server. How can I change that?

    I have two personal e-mail accounts and a general account that I have synced to my Mail app, but I keep getting emails sent to the non-personal e-mail because they're on the same server. How can I change that?

    The only ways I know of for email to get sent to an account are:
    1. It was addressed to that account. Someone used that email address to send you the email.
    2. It was forwarded to that account by the account to which it had been addressed. I am not aware of Mail having this feature but it is often a feature provided by your ISP that you can turn on by logging into your account via the Internet and setting it up.  I assume you have not done this, though.
    With several email addresses in the same Mail client, you have to be careful which one you are sending from. If you send from the wrong address, any replies will come back to that same address. I make this mistake all too often.

  • I am trying to create another email account with talk talk. and I keep getting a failed message saying 'mail could not log into the mail server talk talk. Yet I already have another email account with talk talk. Not sure what I am doing wrong

    I am trying to create another email account with Talktalk. I already have one account.
    I try to input the new email address and password and get a failed message
    'Mail could not lot into the mail server talktalk.net.
    I have tried several times and keep getting the same message.
    Any ideas

    Accessing your emails from any computer connected to the Internet or from a Smart phone should be straightforward.
    For help on how to set up your e-mail on some of the most common software applications and devices, see How do I set up my TalkTalk email?
    If your software application or device isn't listed, all you need to connect to your TalkTalk e-mail mailbox are the TalkTalk e-mail settings. Make sure you use the right email settings for your specific email address.

  • Cisco SPA525g2 Date and time Not Synced with the PBX server

    Hello,
    We have a couple of SPA525g2 phone connected and registered to our PBX server. We were able to configure 3 extensions on different lines of the phone. However, at times we were encountering issues with the other lines configured on the phone. There are times wherein 1  extension configured on the phone is having one way audio issue, but the other extensions configured on the same phone is working fine. and we have to reboot/reset the phone several times for all the extesions configured on the phone to work.
    Also, whenever we reset the phone, the date and time will be way way behind the current date and time, eventhough we have already set the correct date and time before we reset the phone.
    How can we resolve the one way audio issue on 1 or 2 extensions of the phone, while the other extensions configured to it is working fine?
    How can we make the phone sync the date and time with the PBx server?
    Any input and help regarding this issue is greatly appreciated...
    Btw, date and time  issue not sync with the PBX server is just happening on SPA525g2, we have other phones like SPA303, SPA504, and SPA232D/SPA302D. All other phones' date and time is in sync with the server even though we reset them except SPA525g2.
    Thank you very much,

  • Since upgrading to OS5 I know longer receive notice of incoming mail unless I actually click the mail icon.

    Since upgrading to OS5, I no longer receive notificatios of incoming mail unless I actually click the mail icon. Then it connects to the server and loads mail. Any answers?

    Go to System Preferences > iCloud and make sure your account info is correct, delete the password and reenter to be sure it is clean.  Go to Mail and then open Preferences and check the account informaiton for the iCloud account and again, delete and reenter the password for the account.  Sometimes the passwords get garbled during an upgrade.

    2009 MacBook Pro eh? It looks like your hard drive has failed. Three years is pretty standard. Often, then only hint you have is catastrophic failure.
    If you put the old hard drive into an external enclosure or similar device, you may still be able to migrate your data from it. Just because it won't boot doesn't mean you can't still read from it. Still, I wouldn't keep trying it. As long as you are buying a new hard drive, may as well get sometime to use with Time Machine too.

  • Mac Mail doesn't sync changes to imap server, anyway to change this ?

    It appears that mac mail does not sync any changes to the mailbox back to the imap server until mac mail quits. This is a drag, since I almost never quit mac mail and I like to see my changes reflected properly on my iphone/ipad and good old fashioned text based email. Is there anyway to tell Mac Mail to update the server on all changes (so delete the message when I delete it, or at least mark it deleted, etc..)
    Thanks!

    I have experienced the same problem for a long time and it drives me nuts.
    However, when I upgraded to 10.6.5, things seemed to get a lot better, although I still have occasional problems with this. So, if you haven't yet upgraded, I'd suggest doing so.

  • I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

    I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

    Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder?  I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
    You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder.  Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks.  I suspect that will work.
    With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages.  If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

    Correct, USB local sync was taken away from iphones and ipads with 10.9.1 and 2. We are not allowed to speculate on rumours it might come back in 10.9.3 plus new iTunes. Either wait and see or explore Syncmate 5 beta free trial.
    icloud still works.

  • How to limit the number of emails synced through the Mail app?

    The Mail app is syncing all of my emails... even those that are like from than a year ago and older... I don't need them, I'd rather get rid of them and free up some storage space if possible.. The Mail app is currently taking around 5GB of my storage space!!! please help?!

    You can't limit it to the last 50 messages, but you can limit it to the last 1000 messages in each "folder" (label).
    Go to the Gmail website and click on the gear icon to the top-right side.
    Click on Settings.
    Click on the "Forwarding and IMAP/POP" tab across the top of the Settings area.
    Towards the bottom of the IMAP section, change the "Folder Size Limit" setting to "Limit IMAP folders to contain no more than this many messages". By default 1000 is selected, though you can also choose 2000, 5000, or 10000.
    Click Save Changes at the bottom.
