Is there a way to limit the frequency of the "autosaving drafts" feature in Mac Mail on Lion?

Using Mail Version 5.0 (1244.2/1244.3)
On MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.1
Wondering if Is there a way to limit the frequency of the "autosaving drafts" feature in Mac Mail on Lion?
Looked all thru preferences and googled the crap out of this and can't seem to find the answer I want.
Basically, I have my mailbox behaviors set up exactly the way I want them. (ie deleted messages get saved to my "Trash" folder on the server) I do not think I should have to change them, but because of the autosave feature saving almost every 3 characters typed, I have an over abundance of versions saved in my Trash folder. This problem would be solved were there a preference somewhere I could select to save drafts "manually only" or "opened messages save when quitting" or something along those lines.
Is this a preference setting already that I am missing?
I would settle for a rule, just not sure what perameters should be set for this to work.

Typically a server has a settable parameter to limit concurrent connections. Check the server's documentation.

    Hi.
    Is there a way to limit the size of the emails I receive?   Can I set my iPhone4s to only download headers or set a limit to the size?   I can't see anything in the settings.

    My Gmail downloads only small embedded pictures. For videos and other big files I have to tap to download and this is a temp download. So you don't have any problem I thing. You can Delete the account-restart-add account back from time to time.

  • Is there a way to limit the size of the page preview cache?

    Overall I think that the page preview function of Safari is really great. But I noticed today that Safari was becoming slow to close down, and I cleared the page previews with the "Reset Safari" function, and over 1 GB of cache was cleared up. I had no idea that that much disk space could be taken up by the page previews.
    Is there a way to limit the size of the Safari Page Preview cache to, say, 500MB?

    Sorry, you can't limit the size of that item; you can either delete it, or disable it completely (which will also disable Top Sites and Cover Flow for Safari).

  • *Is there any way to limit the Chart Bar size dynamically?*

    Hi
    I have selected the Marker size as Medium for my Bar chart.
    Bar chart bar showing too big when there is only one bar.
    Is there any way to limit the bar size dynamically?
    Thank you

    hi Ruwan,
    Don is correct in that there is no option in the chart design component to do this.
    what you can do though (i know it is a pain) is to
    1) create a new chart in a new section with a narrower bar using the chart options dialogue
    2) create a conditional suppression formula for the new section and the old chart section based on the value returned in the Show Value for the chart
    i have created a request for a charting overhaul [here |https://ideas.sap.com/community/products_and_solutions/crystalreports;jsessionid=B3E2E9F6A6CC9C9F5321659382A91855.node0]in the ideas place which includes a solution for this particular issue. please feel free to give it the thumbs up if you think that this is a worthwhile idea.

  • Is there any way to limit the number of Threads running in Application(JVM)

    Hello all,
    is there any way to limit the number of Threads running in Application(JVM)?
    how to ensure that only 100 Threads are running in an Application?
    Thanks
    Mohamed Javeed

    You should definitely use a thread pool for this. You can specify maximum number of threads that can be run. Be note that the thread pool will only limit the number of threads that are submitted to it. So donot call "Thread"s start() method to start thread on your own. Submit it to the pool. To know more, study about executor service and thread pool creation. Actually it will not be more than 20 line code for a class and you might need maximum of 2 such classes, one for threadPool and other one for rejection handler (if you want).
    Just choose the queue used carefully, you just have to pass it as a parameter to the pool.
    You should use "Bounded" queue for limiting threads, but also be careful in using queues like SynchronizedQueue as the queue will execute immediately the threads submitted to it if maximum number of threads have not been running. Otherwise it will reject it and you should use rejection handler. So if your pool has a synchronized queue of size 100, if you submit 101th thread, it will be rejected and is not executed.
    If you want some kind of waiting mechanism, use something like LinkedBlockingQueue. What this will do is even if you want 100 threads, you can specify the queue's size to be 1000, so that you can submit 1000 threads, only 100 will run at a time and the remaining will wait in the queue. They will be executed when each thread already executing will complete. Rejection occurs only when the queue oveflows.

  • HT1349 Apparently you can have 5 computers registered for iTunes.  I have 3 active computers but I guess I have other computers that are still activated that I no longer use.  Is there a way to delete or see what the others are?  Please help!

    Apparently you can have 5 computers registered for iTunes.  I have 3 active computers but I guess I have other computers that are still activated that I no longer use and I no longer have as they crashed.  Is there a way to delete or see what the other computers are so that I can go in and delete them?  I've tried to email Apple directly but apparently I need my hardware # and obviously I do not have that # since I don't have the equipment any longer.  Any help is greatly appreicated.  I am trying to add another computer and it won't allow me to as they say I'm at my limit.  Please help!

    Sure.
    Just open up iTunes on your computer -> Go to the iTunes Store -> Click your e- maill address (top right corner of the window) -> Type in your password for your Apple ID -> Under Computer Authorisations (underneath your Apple ID account balance and address) -> Press 'Deauthorise All'
    -> This will deauthorise all computers and devices from your iTunes account -> you then need to re- authorise any computers/ devices you would like to use with your Apple ID for iTunes content -> to do this, select the Store tab along the menu at the top (where 'File', 'Edit', 'View' etc..... are) -> Then click 'Authorise this Computer' -> Type in your Apple ID -> Voila!
    For any iOS devices (non- computers) you wish to re- authorise, these will automatically do so when you go to play iTunes content, download an app or anything like that on those devices!
    Hope this helps!

  • Is there any way to limit purchases on my iPad

    Hello world
    MY question is simple: Is there any way to limit ALL purhases (not only in-app purchases) on my iPad.
    I've tried to assign a debit card with a small amount of money but it did not help. I'm still able to make purchases, their cost is in "pending" state(a red sum in iTunes with info that my card could not been authorized) and thay will be debited from the account as soon as i refill my account

    Remov the card details and credit your account with a small amount by means of an iTunes gift card.

  • Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError -- Is there a way to limit BPEL instances number

    Hi All,
    My BPEL process is using JMS adapter to read the JMS queue. Whenever a new message arrives, a new BPEL instance is created. However, when the message gets bigger and multiple messages arrive at queue at the same time, the OC4J gets java OutOfMemory (heap space) error and was forced shutdown. I'm wondering if there's any way to limit the BPEL instance created, say, only one at a time, and the messages would be processed in sequence. Would this be a good way to not use so much heap at one time? Is there a way to limit the BPEL instance created?
    Thanks for your help!
    Michelle

    Take a look at how to configure Jms polling interval (talks about a property that you can set to introduce a delay in between dequeues). That might be of some help to start with.
    It is supposed to work exactly the way you want it i.e the activation agent does a dequeue and hand off to bpel engine (which creates an instance and uses the same thread to run as much of that instance as possible i.e till the first dehydration point). So, if your process has a dehydration point right at the beginning (which could be due to invocation of another async process, or wait or ...), you could very well see this thread go right back and process the next available message.
    I believe this is a generic problem that is not necessarily jms adapter specific. One way would be to split up your process into three processes:
    1. "Kickoff" process which contains just a "receive" associated with the activation agent followed by an invocation of a "Controller" process
    2. "Controller" process which checks for the provided input as to which process it needs to invoke, and then goes on to check how many instances of that process are currently running; if this number is below a certain threshold, kick off the main process providing it the necessary payload gotten from the "KickOff" process
    3. "Main" process which is same as your current process except that it is a typical async process without the adapter "receive" partner link
    So, the idea being that for any process where you want to introduce a control-flow mechanism, you would split it into #1 and #3 above. Have one generic Controller process, which caters to all of the processes.
    Would be interested in learning if others have solved this in a generic way.

  • HT4489 Is there a way to limit (specify) what is shared when you share a contact?

    I noticed when I share a contact that most information in the contact is shared.  This is not what I want.  I would only like to share the basic information like telephone numbers and addresses.  I do not want to share my notes and additional information that I have accumulated.  Is there a way to limit or specify exactly what you want to share?

    This isn't a way to limit what is shared, except to create a new contact to share that excludes this information.

  • I have an Apple TV 2, is there a way to limit use time?

    I have an Apple TV 2, is there a way to limit use time?

    Since the cable company will always tell you that the "connection looks good", it is a good idea to verify that for yourself, if you have not already done so.
    Just connect your Mac directly to the modem, check the download speed that way, and note the results. If you do not have an application to test the connection speed, you can use something like this:
    http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
    Then, connect the modem to your router normally, and then connect the Mac to one of the LAN <-> Ethernet ports and check that way, and note the results. This should be about the same speed, or a bit less than the direct connection to the modem.
    Then, power off the router and power it back up and try a wireless connection with the Mac relatively close to the router. You should see about 80-90% of the speed that you noted when the Mac was connected directly to the modem and the router using an Ethernet connection.
    Make sure that there are no cordless phones anywhere near the router or Mac when you test the wireless connection.
    Post back on your results.

  • Is there a way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my iphone has been connected to?   My Bluetooth car speaker phone was recently stolen from my car and appears to be on Craigslist.

    Is there any way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my Iphone has been connected to?  I recenly had my Bluetooth Jabra stolen from my car and now a simliar one is on Craigslist.  I'd like to give my connection log to the police before I go and see if my Iphone recognizes the device in question.  Any way to get any type of bluetooth device connection log out of my iphone?

    Your contacts should still be on whatever program you sync your iphone to (i.e. Outlook, address book).
    The iphone is not a stand alone device. It is designed to be synced with a computer. If you have not been syncing with a compatible program, then you are out of luck. Your contacts are not included in the back-up because it is meant to be synced with your computer.
    "Although iTunes backs up most of your iPhone and iPod touch settings, downloaded applications, and other information (Contacts, calendars, notes, images in the Camera Roll), your audio, video, and photo content are not included in the backup."

  • I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?

    I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?
    For example so that I can just press shift or another key to get the German character.

    Some may already exist, but you will have to learn them.  On my old system these can be found through keyviewer.app  For example, if I press option+s I get ß   Umlaut is a bit cumbersome as option+u then the actual letter.  It may be possible to bind a key to do this function, possibly through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts
    I have old, old references for utilities that let you rebind keys to other functions, and you would have to see if they have modern equivalents.
    Ukelele Mac OS X Keyboard Layout Editor - http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=ukelele - mostly useful for character, not function mapping.
