Limit address mail can be sent to
Is there a way to limit the addresses email can be sent to from Mail?
I want to set up Mail on some school computers so students can email photos to a web gallery, but I only want them to be able to send to that address. They will be sending from a .mac account and I don't want the account being used to send other emails.
Hope that makes sense.
Any guess at how to fix it or is a reinstall in my future?
Start by looking at the logs for an example. There will be some indication in the logs as to what happened to the message.
Depending on how busy your server is, this might be as simple as tail -f /var/log/mail.log while you send such a message from your mail client.

What is the maximum number of addresses that can be sent in a group mailing
Can anyone tell me the maximum number of addresses that can be sent as a group mailing?
Thanks."Does Mail complain when you try to send a message to several recipients at once? You might be surprised to know that Mail actually has no limit on the number of recipients to whom you can send a message! So, what's going on here?
Chances are it's your Internet Service Provider (ISP) that's preventing your message from being sent. Your ISP might do this, for example, to deter folks who send unsolicited bulk commercial email (such as "spam" or "Junk mail") to a large number of addresses.
If this happens to you, contact your ISP and ask them if they enforce a limit on how many recipients each email message can have. If there is a limit, you can either send your message to fewer people, or divide your recipient list into multiple sets and send the same message in batches (each time to a different set of recipients).

Brilliant! Thanks. -
Help - since 15:00 this afternoon Port 25 timed out and no mail can be sent
Have been sending and receiving mail all day - suddenly with no warning or reason mail cannot be sent from either my account or my wife's (on the same computer using the same ADSL line. The message is that "This message could not be delivered......The connection "smtp.mac.com" on port 25 timed out. All outgoing mail is blocked.
Read the following article, which applies to all versions of Mac OS X (not just Mac OS X 10.4.2 and earlier as the article states) and can be useful for other mail accounts as well (not just .Mac):

Mail Can be sent but is never delivered
Hi,
I was following the steps below to make it so a message can be received without a subject. After completing those steps I am running into an issue with my messages not getting to the recipient. If I send a message it acts as if it's been sent but the person getting the message doesn't and I get no message saying it could not be delivered. On the other end, if someone send me a message, I never get it and they get no message that tells them the message could not be delivered. This happens will all users of the server (any email address for the server). Any guess at how to fix it or is a reinstall in my future?
Thanks.
Yes, this is a default in Snow Leopard's Postfix configuration (which is the provided MTA).
If you really, truly, don't want that, then see:
http://www.icoretech.org/2009/09/reminder-empty-email-subjects-in-snow-leopards- postfix/
For the record, the change needed is:
edit
/etc/postfix/customheaderchecks
by commenting out the line:
/^subject: *$/ REJECT empty subject header
which is done by putting a "#" at the beginning of that line (no actual quotes) like so:
#/^subject: *$/ REJECT empty subject header
After which you should use the Terminal to issue:
sudo postfix reload
And check your logs (mail.log, system.log) for any errors in case you made a typo.
Please, do NOT use a GUI editor or if you must use TextWrangler (shareware) which will at least let you authenticate as admin and not botch the permissions on that file.
However it really is better to learn to use an editor like nano or better yet vi ...
whatever happens, use the Terminal to check and to verify that the permissions of all files are preserved or things will break.Any guess at how to fix it or is a reinstall in my future?

Any ideas?You propably got the SMTP-server wrong. Every wifi-distributor, and every country has a different SMTP-server. Are you on vaccation in a different country? Try to look at your distributors homepage and see if you got the right settings.

Mail can be sent but not received
We have three email addresses (POP) on the same ISP account and the other two can send and receive.
When I tried to send an email to the faulty address, the following reply came seconds later:
+Delivery to the following recipients failed.+
[email protected]
+Final-Recipient: rfc822;[email protected]+
+Action: failed+
+Status: 5.2.2+
+X-Display-Name: [email protected]+
+---------- Forwarded message ----------+
+From: Sender <[email protected]>+
+To: Addressee <[email protected]>+
+Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2009 12:03:30 0000
+Subject: This is the Sunday morning test+
+This is the Sunday morning test+OK, Keychain Access has three Keychains, two of which appear identical right down to Date Modified for each password) and a third called X509 Anchors.
Within each of the two apparently identical Keychains is a single POP3 password for my ISP with my email account number in the info box at the top (when I view the other two users's accounts in Mail preferences, their account numbers are the same as this but suffixed by _2 and _3. But, as I say, the only POP password appearing in Keychain Access is mine. Do you mean I should delete it? -
Why do I get the message "Cannot send mail, the user name and or password for my email outgoing server is incorrect"? I use the same account, etc. on my iPhone and haven't any trouble sending mail.
If your email requires a password for the SMTP server you can set it up in the settings in the General mail setup. Some i.e Gmail require a password for SMTP.
Otherwise you will probably get better answers in the iPad forum.

Sankar M http://messagingdevelopment.blogspot.in/Hi Munirathinam,
We can use transport rule and content filtering to implement this function, for example "SubjectOrBodyContains" or "
FromAddressContains". More details about it, please refer to:

I have two IMAP accounts set up in Mail, one work and one personal. The personal account also receives emails from a third account (but I have that set up through gmail's forwarding, not Mail). I am sending emails from my work account and replies are coming to this third account, which I don't want to happen.
How do I make it so that replies to me are sent to the email address from which I sent my original message?
Thanks for your help!Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Just got a new iphone5. Why are addresses for every e-mail I've sent for the past 2 days added to my contact list -- not just once, but twice!? How can I stop this from happening?
Firefox doesn't store email addresses except as form data; data that you typed previously into Firefox.
See if clearing form history solves that problem: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/control-firefox-automatically-fills-in-forms?esab=a&s=clear+form+data&r=5&as=s#w_clearing-form-history Clearing form history] -
I'm a mac.com acount user. for a long time.
This changed to me.com and later to Icloud.com.
Since my storage has been set lower on 5GB on 30 sept 2013 its not possible anymore to sent mail from outlook.
On the 30 sept we got a message to delete some files in the icloud because our memory was to high.
But after changing to enough space the problems did not go away.
error: 0x80004005 de bewerking mislukt.
I can receive all mails from all my .mac and .me accounts.
And I can sent mails from outlook .com, but I don't want to use that
Can someone explain what happened and how to make it work
Thx
JohnAllan - Here's the other odd thing. Currently, I have my old mail account AND my new MM account both feeding into and out of Outlook. But since adding my MM acct. - even though I set it as my default mail acct. - the hierarchy tree of Outlook folders is still treating my old acct. as king and my new MM acct. as second class. I know, what's that mean? I have my overriding "Personal Folders" folder, with the sub-folders (in addition to customized ones I added) - all of these at the same level - 'Deleted Items'; 'Inbox' (for my old account); 'Junk E-mail'; 'RSS Feeds'; 'Sent Items' and "Search Folders". Then, below that, but at the same hierarchy level as "Personal Folders", I have my MM's root of an IMAP store folder that has as its name my email address, including the "@me.com". Under that, at the same level of importance as my 'Deleted Items', etc. for my old account is my MM account's "Inbox", "Junk E-mail", "Sent" (which, like I said, I created when I sent the first email from my newly created MM account), and "Search Folders"... that's it. If I delete an email from my MM acct., or am in the process of creating an email in my MM acct., I can only find it in the aforementioned "Deleted Items" or "Draft" folders, as my MM acct. doesn't have these. Is this perhaps one indicator of my sent mail synching problem? Or does one have nothing to do with the other? Does Outlook only provide one each of "Drafts", "Deleted Items" and "Outbox" that all accounts share?
