Hi,
Can anyone help me? I've just bought a new Intel iMac and want to be able to receive my hotmail e-mails to mac mail programme.
Is this possible and if so how do I do it?

How can I download my address book from other e-mail accounts of mine?

I left yahoo as my default e-mail because the contact address book no longer functions. I can only get my list as I compose a message and begin typing the name. I have other e-mail accounts such as Comcast and g-mail. How can I import them into my new default Thunderbird address book?

Export the address books from your providers as a comma separated file. Type .CSV file.
Then open the address book window in Thunderbird and use Tools-Import to bring them into Thunderbird.

How do I use an "Other" e-mail account on the iPhone?

I have a Bellsouth/AT&T e-mail account, and I want to use that as my e-mail, but I don't really understand how. Please help me out.

Hey sk8nroll,
After you choose Other, You'll just enter the information provided by your Internet Service Provider(Bellsouth.)
You can use this article to help you find the information.

My "other" e-mail account - not fully accessible?

I am a 2 week old iMac user. I signed on to my internet service provider e-mail account and I can read my e-mail and delete it but I cannot access the address book nor other features. I'm not receiving any error messages. Cookies are ON. I did install Norton Internet for Mac. This is a new problem and I wonder if it's some feature of my iMac or the Norton. Any suggestions?

Since there are no active virus attacks that Norton will protect you from you should get rid of it, at least until you understand your Mac a little better. Norton has been crap on PC's for years, and is unnecessary on Macs.
The symptoms you mention are not normal for a Mac, but all kinds of crazy things happen with Norton (it will protect you even if you don't need protection).

Can no longer see my inbox or my other e-mail accounts

I have 3 e-mail accounts on my iphone 4....I've got my work e-mail, my gmail and my icloud mail. I used to be able to click on the Mail app and it would go straight into the list of mailboxes that I have. I could click on a mailbox and it would go straight into the Inbox of that mail account. But for some reason when I picked it up a little while ago and clicked on the mail app, it went straight into an e-mail from one of my mail accounts instead of to the screen that lists all of my mail accounts. It doesn't give me an option in the top left corner to go into the Inbox of that mail account anymore. The only thing it will let me do now is Edit this one e-mail or move it. The mail app says I have 4 new e-mails but I"m not able to check them since I can't get into the Inbox for that mail account because it keeps going straight into an e-mail instead with no option to back out of it. I don't know how to get it to go back into the main screen so I can choose which mail account I want to look at it. Can anyone help????

When I held down the mail app, I didn't get a minus sign. The apps just shook instead. But I powered off the phone and turned it back on and now it is working so maybe it was just stuck? Not sure what it was that fixed it but it appears to be working now. Thanks for the quick response!

Firefox will not let me open one of my yahoo e-mail accounts. can open it on internet explorer. the account is linked with another e-mail account.

I can open the account, but can't select any items to open. problem first started Friday, when the e-mail account would not stay open. Now will stay open but will not open e-mails or allow selection of tabs. contacted yahoo but they said it was a firefox issue due to the fact I can open e-mails using internet explorer.
says Yahoo!Mail, null currently.

Thank you! I did all three of those things and it works now. I was using a bookmark for the att.net Mail page like you said. I think that's probably what the problem was. It used to work fine. Now I know.

Hi cannot link up my e mail account i am with virgin just will not link up any ideas please?

Hi unable to link up my e mail address i have contacted Virgin my provider and tried everything any ideas PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!

Tell us what you have done, how far you get and what message you receive? Is your email (do not quote it here) working OK on another device/computer?

.Mac works fine, other e-mails account can't connect

Since I install my Airport Express I can't receive e-mails from my domain accounts. Internet works fine, Mac accounts have no issue and my host told me that everything work fine for him. Indeed I can access my Webmail page.
This happen with all the computers and all the accounts of my domain account.
Any clues?
Thanks!

i had a phantom cox pop3 outlook express email account that worked both sending/receiving.
this is what i did.
changed the password into outlook on a pc, which threw an error message on the phone that allowed me to get into email settings & delete, then recreate the account.
what app are you using unless you meant the email icon?
in the future, just stop the etching (set to manual) & the account won't be disabled.
hope this helps

Messages imported from other Mac Mail accounts are empty

I took great care in making sure my business mail over the past several years was preserved on my G4. A separate folder was created for incoming and sent messages for each year, and each year I kept the folders from the previous year online in Mail for easy access. I moved the folders from past years into an 'archive' folder inside User/Library/Mail, but not within /Mailboxes. If I had a need to refer to messages from another year, all I had to do was move the appropriate folder back into /Mailboxes, and Mail would open it and there my messages would be, completely intact. The entire Mail folder was backed up every night onto an external Firewire drive.
And everything was just fine. Or so I thought. After the power supply in my G4 fried last week, I had to migrate everything over to my MacBook. While the Mail import of over 5GB worth of messages went without a problem, I just now had a need to refer to messages from earlier this year. The mailbox lists all of them, including sender, date and time, but the message pane is EMPTY, completely void of any text whatsoever. Every message that was imported... over the past FIVE YEARS is now GONE. Finder still claims the Mailbox folder contains 5.28GB of content, but if the message panes are without text, what's taking up 5.28GB of space?
Anyone?

My panicked and frustrated posting was due to the fact that under OS 10.4.11, Mail Help was as empty as the mail messages I described. There was no content.
But I was pleasantly surprised to find that under OS 10.5.8, Mail Help provided the answer by explaining how to get Mail to reindex the messages. This solved the problem.

In the list of my e-mail accounts, there is a lock next to the gmail account, yet not to any of my other accounts. What does this mean?

I'm just wondering what that lock icon on the envelope icon for my lone gmail account is, in the list of email accounts under the Get Mail listing. None of my other e-mail account icons in the Get Mail listing have that. Can you help?

It means the account uses a secure connection.

Can I have a blackberry e-mail account and still get my Outlook e-mails redirected to me

I am using the redirector now to get my work e-mails and I am wondering if you can have a blackberry or other e-mail account on the same phone. So I would recieve my work e-mails via the redirector and maybe have personal blackberry e-mail account that would go to the same phone?

Yes, as long as you have the proper service plan from your carrier. You must have what is often called The Blackberry Data Plan -- a generic data plan is usually insufficient. Contact your carrier to be sure that you have a plan that provides you with access to their Blackberry Internet Service. Then, use these instructions to configure personal email accounts:

T-Bird requires new install but can't find original mail account - help!

I've been running ThunderbirdPortable for about 3 months and now, all of a sudden the executable won't start. The message recommends that I re-install which I did in the same directory as the original (as recommended) but when I start the new executable it does not link to my original mail account.
How can I "tell" my new installation where my original account data can be found.

How do I synchronize my e-mail accounts and folders

Hi everybody on this line...
I am using a Powerbook + a Mini mac and I would very much like to read/delete/save all my incoming e-mail on both machines without doing the work twice (on each machine). So how do I synchronize my e-mail accounts and folders (when I delete on e-mail on one of the mac it will also be deleted on the other machine or if I move an e-mail to a folder, it would also me moved to the same folder on the other machine).
I am award of the possibilities that .mac give me but as far as I know I can only use .mac for my mac e-mail account ([email protected]) and not for my other accounts that I have from my internet provider ([email protected]) which is a pop account.
I hope you understand my question.
Thanks in advance

You're welcome.
Could you please make a totally run down (step by step) of
how to synchronize one mail account between to machines.
There is nothing else to say, really. Locally stored mailboxes cannot be synchronized, period. Mailboxes stored on the server are synchronized automatically without you having to do anything else. If there is something you don't understand, you'll have to ask specific questions.
The only way to have an exact copy of all your mail in both computers for locally stored mailboxes is to copy the entire ~/Library/Mail folder between them every time. Mail shouldn't be running on either computer while you do this, and it would be a good idea to copy ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist as well.
right now the inbox of my Imap account is showed
together with my other e-mail accounts inboxex
As it should be. Mail organizes the standard mailboxes by type instead of by account, so that you can look at them both individually and combined as if you had just one of each type.
ut it is also showed futher down in my "menu" wtihin
the mail program, with a logo as a black ball,
together with two folders that I have made (Prut
mappe) and (choir OF young believers).
This is also normal. I assume the "menu" you're talking about is the mailboxes list. Since Mail organizes standard mailboxes by type, the rest of mailboxes must be shown separately. In Mail 2.x, local custom "On My Mac" mailboxes are shown ungrouped at the root level of the mailboxes list, and an account group is displayed for each IMAP account to organize custom mailboxes stored on the server.

More than one e-mail account

I currently have a gmail account set-up on my iPhone that pulls in two other e-mail accounts via gmail.
I want to add a secondary e-mail account which is my work e-mail (probably a MS Exchange account). Is there anyway to do this as I believe that the gmail account is hooked up via MS Exchange and I believe that you can only configure one at any time.
Therefore can I move my gmail configuration to something else to allow me to access my work e-mail through a MS Exchange configuration? I don't want my work e-mails in the same inbox as my gmail account.
Thanks

You're welcome.
You indicated you created your Gmail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail application. If so, this provides Push access for received messages and over the air syncing for your Google or Gmail contacts and calendar events.
Before creating your company Exchange account on your iPhone, you will need to delete your Gmail account on your iPhone that is being accessed as an Exchange account followed by recreating the account as an IMAP account. When using the Gmail account preset when creating a Gmail account with the iPhone's Mail application, the account is created as an IMAP account.

Is there a way to default send from one mail account across multiple mail accounts?

I have a user who has her own Exchange mailbox account. I have added two separate Exchange mail accounts. I want to be able to force her (even if she is in one of the other two mail accounts) to send from her own Exchange account. I know you can manually change it every time, but is there a way to force it automatically? Thanks.

Nope. There is no universal mailbox on the iPhone.
