Is there a way of sharing received emails in the LAN? I mean, like the local folders but pointing to shared SAMBA folders.

I work in a small company where every receive email is classified, stored and shared with everyone. This is implemented with M.S. Exchange shared folders. However, I am trying to get rid of the Exchange Server, install Ubuntu in every terminal and just use google as email server. What I did so far is to share some folders with SAMBA and point everyone's Thunderbird "Local Folders" to them, and this seems to be working well, but the problem is that Thunderbird Local Folders weren't meant to be shared. Actually, if someone adds any email to the folders the other people won't see any changes unless they restart Thunderbird. Also, as Thunderbird stores emails in mbox, when someone is seeing any email belonging to some folder, that folder gets blocked and other people are not allowed to see it.
Is there a way in Thunderbird of sharing emails in realtime in the LAN? That would be a very useful tool for teamwork.

Your coming at this from the wrong end.
It is implemented by Exchange. In Outlook.
So you need
It is implemented by XXX. In Thunderbird.
That is you need a server solution to the issue. You could get some if it using IMAP mail accounts but a real solution is probably a far better solution and shared calendars are a real boon I think.
One that I think has some merit is http://www.sogo.nu/ but Zimbra is also worth a look http://www.zimbra.com/products/ I know very little about either product, so do your own due diligence.
Those are certainly not the only exchange replacement packages available as this google search demonstrates http://www.google.com.au/webhp?nord=1#newwindow=1&nord=1&q=exchange+replacement&safe=off

Is there a way to set an email mailbox so that mail from many months are stored, but the general default for the other mailboxes is a few days?

Is there a way to set an email mailbox so that mail from many months are stored, but the general default for the other mailboxes is a few days?

The only thing I can think of is to set the number of days to sync messages, shown below. But I'm not sure if this is what you're after. If it is go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars select the email account you wish to change.
This will then only sync emails from the last week for example. In the screenshot all email messages would be synced to the iPhone.

HT204053 Is there a way to only receive emails from my secondary email address on my Apple ID and not my primary. I dont want to see that one on my phone all the time.

I had only an ipod and created an apple ID to access itunes. Then I got an iphone and when setting it up I forgot my apple ID info. So I used my mom's email address to set up another ID. Now I have two and I only get her email messages on my phone. I know the sign in for both IDs but I want to change my ID associated with my iphone to the one I orginally set up for my ipod. How can I do ths?

Go to Settings>iCloud and sign out. Then sign in with the required ID.

Is there a way to delete multiple emails ipad ios7

Is there a way to delete multiple emails on my ipad with ios7?
The manual says,
"Delete, move, or mark multiple messages. While viewing a list of messages, tap Edit. Select
some messages or tap Mark All, then choose an action. If you make a mistake, shake iPad
immediately to undo"
Unfortunately, there is no "Mark All".

This is an ios7 issue - from what I can tell...

How to use this forum - is there a way i an receive an email alert ?

Hi Everyone,
Is there a way I can receive an email alert when I post,
or when I want to follow another's post?
Is there a way to receive an email digest of the day's posting actiivity?
pls advise, tx, sandra

Hi Sandra
You can flag a thread to be watched and you can flag that all threads that you post to can be watched. To set this up click on the Watch this Thread link and then click on the Watch Options link alongside. You can unwatch at any time.
Your watched threads will have an icon of a small pair of binoculars to the left.
From the master list of all threads in the forum there is also a link called Watch Forum. I haven't tried it but presumably checking that means you get emails on everything. As suggested by Nancy below you may well get inundated. I don't think I would like to be informed of all threads as I like to visit in my own time, something that I do several times a day.
Best wishes

Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email. I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1

Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email. I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1 (902.17) OS is Mavericks 10.9.1.

Your question and description is not very clear to me, so hopefully something here will help:
1. Gmail is a service not an app or a place. So you need to access the service with an app - that can be iPhoto, Mail, Outlook or any other mail client, or even a Web Browser like Safari or Firefox.
So you can't "go to GMail" as you write, but instead you go to an application set up to use the GMail service.
2. iPhoto is not a mail client. It's a handy way to email pics to Grandma, but for what you're doing you need to use an app that supports all of the Gmail service. iPhoto doesn't. There is no way around that.
3. How to send to groups will vary depending on what app you use to access the GMail service. All of these apps can receive photos from iPhoto, either - as in the case of Mail and Outlook, via the Share function - or, in the case of all the rest - via a Media Browser.
For help sending to Groups using any of these other apps you need to ask omn their respective forums. But the workflow is quite simple:
Using Mail or Outlook set in the iPhoto Prefereneces:
1. Select the pic(s) you want to share.
2. Choose email from the Share function
3. Make your selections re size etc
4. The email opens up in Mail or Outlook
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
Using any other app:
1. In the mail app create a new email
2. Click on the Attach button or link
3. Use the Media browser to select the pic(s) you want to send
4. Attach them
- from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc?

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

Nope.
You might be able to find another calendar app that can do that in the App Store.

Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone?

Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone? IOS 7.1. Every other phone in the market allows you to 'select all' then delete.
This trick of selecting one, then holding move, then unchecking (and subsequently moving all the emails to trash) doesn't work. I've read these suggestions and while it appears to work the emails just show up again once you leave and return to the inbox. Perhaps it worked on an older version of IOS.
It blows my mind this is not a standard function. I get a few hundred emails at work every day, and most of the time I just want to delete all of them from the phone as I've read them already. Currently it seems i can only click edit and then have to check each email individually to be able to delete them at the same time; this is the definition of tedious. I would think there are millions of other iphone users who get their company email on their phones that must experience the same thing. It seems now i either spend 20 minutes a day deleting emails, or just let thousands of emails accumulate on the phone (taking up space and also making it hard to just review the most recent emails which is all I want to be able to do when checking email on my phone).
I am hoping I am just missing some simple solution here that everyone else uses. Please help!!

Only Apple could answer as to why there is no "select all/"delete all" function in the iOS mail app. Users have been bemoaning this lack of functionality for years now. Like everyone else, you can submit feedback to. Apple here.

While I understand the whole idea of being able to use the phone on the run, if you have an IMAP email account, and if you have access to a computer at work during the day, use your "select all" function on the server and delete all of the unwanted email there and it will be removed from the phone as well.
That doesn't solve the problem on the phone, but it gets rid of the email which is your ultimate goal anyway.

Is there a way to select all emails at once on the iPad and then delete them at one time?

Is there a way to select all emails at once on the iPad and then delete them at one time?

Tap on the edit button at the top right of the email list. This will let you select the emails to delete, once all are selected, tap on the bottom right button that says delete to delete them all at once.

Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list?

Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list? I do not delet email after it's read so I end up with many 'read' email between the un-read email. Is there a way to cluster the un-read email at the top of the list?
Thank you,
Patrick

Just make a smart mailbox (unread mail) and leave it in the sidebar.

Is there a way to remove all email at once on iPad first generation?

Is there a way to remove all email at once on iPad first generation?

Issue does not apply to just first gen iPads, but all iOS devices. The only place in the native mail app that permits deleting en mass is the trash folder. In all other folders you must tap each message to select it before deleting. There may be alternate mail apps that include this function in the app store, but I have yet to find one.

Is there a way to delete multiple emails at one time?

I did a search but didn't find anything on this.
I just got the new 3G and when I setup one of my email accounts (not .mac) it downloaded 700 emails from that account even though about 600 had been previously deleted.
Is there a way to select multiple emails for deletion? Deleting that many one at a time would be tedious to say the least.

These messages may have been deleted from the email client used on your computer for accessing the account but they weren't deleted at the incoming mail server for the account. If so, the iPhone's Mail client would not have downloaded these messages.
With the mailbox selected, select edit. Each message that you want to delete must be selected which will place a check in the circle to the left of the message.
Select Delete at the bottom.
