Mac Mail message windows

I am using Mac Mail 5.2 on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.7.4.  If I open a  folder in On My Mac, it shows the mail under the headings From  Subject   Date Received.  Is there any way I can insert To into the headings,so I know to whom the e-mails were sent?

Sounds to me like it is.  The mail apps on any OS are just slaves to the delivery by the mail servers they are configured to use.  When the servers deliver the stuff the mail apps just receive the stuff and tell their user about it.  Sure it's buffered somewhere, but not for a day, unless of course, you configure you mail program to only check mail once a day or the servers themselves are broken and can't deliver the stuff (it happens).

  • .MAC Mail on Windows Mail

    Hello All,
    I just got a new laptop from work, it has Vista and ''Windows Mail'', how do I import .mac mail on there? My work uses my .mac email address and I have to go to mac.com to get mail. HELP PLEASE!
    P.S. Windows=Devil

    I quote from Apple's Help on the subject:
    'You can use any standard email program to read your .Mac Mail messages.
    Open your email program and set up an account that uses your .Mac member name for the account name, your .Mac password for the mail password, mail.mac.com for the POP or IMAP server, and your ISP's SMTP server for the outgoing mail server.
    If your email program supports SMTP authentication, you can use smtp.mac.com instead of your ISP's SMTP server.'
    You may be able to set Windows Mail to use IMAP, which would leave messages on the server to be read by other machines if required: or you can use it as a POP account meaning that messages would be downloaded to your Windows machine (though you should have the option to leave mail on the server if you want).
    To send via .mac, enter smtp.mac.com as the server, enable 'Use Authentication' (or set 'Authentication' to 'Password', depending on how it's worded in the the program) and enter your .mac username and password.

  • Hard Drive Crash and Mac Mail Messages

    The 160GB hard drive in my 17" Mac Book Pro blew up. I was able to get all my files off before it would not reboot in any mode...except for my mac mail messages, which I forgot about until it was too late. I have logged on to the web and can see them there, but my question is, when I get my laptop back with a new blank hard drive and set up mac mail again, will it pull in my messages from the mac server, or will the server delete them (and then I lose them forever) when it doesn't see them on my laptop?

    Setting up an email client with a new computer won't erase the copies of the email on the web; they are only deleted if you explicitly delete them, or if the client is set to use the POP protocol and the option to delete them on the server when they are transferred to the computer is chosen. If the IMAP protocol is used, the messages are not automatically downloaded to the computer upon receipt, and are available only on the web unless saved manually.

  • HT201342 Where is the from field in a Mac mail message?

    From an Apple information document:
    You can send email from your @icloud.com address by following these instructions:
    Begin composing a new email on the device of your choice.
    Select the From: field in your message.
    Choose your @icloud.com address from the list of addresses.
    Compose your message and send it.

  • Embedding a hyperlink in a New Mac Mail message

    I know about Edit -> Add Hyperlink. But I'm astonished that dragging a favicon from a browser into the text area of a new message just drags the "dead" text --- furthermore, under certain circumstances, if you select the dead text, then Edit Hyperlink, an old, stale, inappropriate URL may be still be in the Edit Hyperlink box.
    This is a recipe for creating misleading/phishing links.
    Am I missing something? Is there an easier way to get a live URL into a Mac Mail message?
    Thanks .. cb

    Gentoo, that does the trick nicely! A simple double click of the folder name does indeed bring up the text box for editing.
    A big thank you for pointing that out, and i am sure there will be others wondering the same thing, so hopefully they will see your answer.
    Sorry for delay in answering, i had not subscribed to the thread thinking that there was no way of doing it, so another thanks for sending me the pm letting me know you had answered.
    Cheers,
    Steve.

  • Does anyone know how to highlight text within a mac mail message?

    Does anyone know how to highlight text within a mac mail message?

    I can't find that option in Mac Mail's editor.  You can use a more feature rich editor like OpenOffice or Pages to create your message.  Then copy/paste into mail.

  • Quota limit reached?  Delete Mac Mail messages?

    I'm a bit confused (make that VERY confused).  I keep getting this "Quota limit reached" message.   Apple iPhone rep tells me that I have to start deleting my 25,000 Mac Mail messages.
    Thing is, I don't have time to delete even half those messages.  If I have to, I will but is there another easier way?
    I don't really need Mac Mail on my iPhone anyway.  I'd like to just delete it all together buy iPhone Apple rep said that I can't because it's synced?
    I don't get it.
    Please help!  Whatever answer anyone gives me, please don't make it too "techie" --as in assuming I know more than I do.
    BTW, I am still using 10.5.8 on m Mac Book Pro.  Making an appointment today with Apple store to get this done.  Can't do it myself as I have some tech glitches that may cause problems if I try to do do this--so I need professonal "Genius Bar" help.
    Just thought I would add that in case it's relevant to this process.   

    Go to iCloud.com and click on mail. Then you can delete multiple messages quickly. All you have to do is hold your shift key and your up or down arrow keys to select multiple messages. If you have important ones, you can select up to those ones and delete the junk.
    Or, you can buy iCloud storage. Which is 20 bucks for 10 gigabytes.

  • Mail messages window disappear when searching

    Hello,
    I'm using Mail 8.0 on OS X 10.10 (14A389). With French language and localisation. This is something I already noticed in Public Beta.
    I have my Sent folder selected (maybe it would happen with another). I start typing something in the search box. Then the whole main messages window disappear immediately. But Mail thinks it's still visible. Even search suggestions continues to show. Typing cmd+0 to hide/show the messages window does not help.
    I have to restart Mail to get my messages window back.
    This happens randomly. After restarting Mail I can search as usual without the window disappearing. But sometimes later it will happen again.
    Anyone encounters this too? Is this known from Apple? Any better temporary workaround than restarting Mail?

    It still happens and it really gets boring. I have Mail 8.0 (1990.1). It happens from any folder selected: Inbox, Sent, Smart Inboxes...
    How could such a bug remain undetected and not fixed asap? Maybe it's a plot from Apple to get us to ditch Mail and instead buy Unibox, Sparrow or Airmail from the Mac App Store so they get more $$$ commissions?

  • Mac Mail Message Count (Not New Messages) Missing

    I do not know if I did something yesterday, but today I do not see the count of messages in a mailbox in the header of the application when I select a mailbox.
    Did I click something somewhere and now I can't find it?
    TIA

    William - indeed and thanks.
    I come from a Windows history that goes back to the late 1980's and used to be quite familiar with rebooting my laptop 7-30 times a week. When I moved to the Apple ecosystem, I forgot completely about having to reboot periodically - something I have discovered is necessary with Mac's, too. It is especially necessary with applications that get a lot of use - I cycle through a couple thousand e-mail messages every week.
    I restarted Mail because it started acting up in other ways, too. Voila! Problem solved.

  • Mail sees the number of .Mac mail messages, but not anything else about 'em

    Pretty straight forward problem.
    Mail says I have .Mac mail on all of my .Mac accounts yet when I click on them in Mail they cannot be seen in the list.
    ALL SOFTWARE IS UP TO DATE/LATEST AVAILABLE.
    Do ports have to be opened up for Mail to work? If so, how do people like me with five computers in their house each use Mail?
    In the left pane under the INBOX, I see all of my accounts.
    For one/my/main .Mac account, I hear the chime of NEW MAIL and see the red circle/dot with the number of new mails.
    When I click on the .Mac account, the right/upper pane shows nothing - it is blank.
    All of my other myriad of pop/imap accounts defined in the mail.app work perfectly well.
    .Mac mail accounts.
    email accounts from .Mac.
    Family pack gives a person five accounts. I mentioned that so that it the fact it happens with all the subaccounts and all my computers would eliminate any individual account and any individual computer from being significantly different than any other typical setup and thus eliminate them from being the focus on any suggested fix.

    I'd suggest creating a new test user account from the system preferences. Log in, open Mail, enter your .Mac settings and see how it goes.
    Alternatively, you can try to reset Mail.app by renaming (for backup purposes) the following files: (This will affect your other mailboxes as well!)
    Preferences: your_name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    & Mail folder: your_name/Library/Mail/
    Assuming a new Mail setup actually works, post back in case you need help on importing your old POP3 messages.
    If not, I've no idea what to do... Your firewall should not affect .Mac behavior. (I got to admit, I don't particularly like Mail.app's buggy IMAP implementation.)
    Good luck!

  • Can i use mac mail in windows. from where can i download it

    Hi Apple,
       I would like to use mail.app (Mac mail client) in windows. Could you people please help me out in this. from where i can download this for windows.
    Thanks,

    Apple doesn't make any email software for Windows. The only current software it does is iTunes, Safari, QuickTime, a limited version of Software Update, and a couple of hardware-specific products.

  • Export Mac Mail message list as XLS, Numbers, CSV file?

    I'm wondering if there's a practical way to export the message list in my Mac Mail inbox as a spreadsheet (e.g., XLS, Numbers, CSV &c)? I figured there must be a file of this sort in my mail library somewhere, but wasn't sure where to look. Any ideas, shortcuts, quick & easy answers? Thanks!

    export bookmarks to a file, open this file in safari and enter command+I. You can of course simply attach the file to your message.

  • Moving mac mail messages to gmail through imap

    Newbie question so be gentle
    Looking to move my Mac Mail to Gmail through IMAP - this is to ensure I can access my mail from any machine whilst I'm on the road working plus if my hard drive dies (which it did a year ago) I won't loose any messages/folders.
    Currently have a couple of email addresses coming straight into Mac Mail and have numerous folders set up. Want to know if I link the Mac Mail to my Gmail account using IMAP will all my messages plus folders simply sync online with no issues? Will the folders remain intact (I understand Gmail uses 'labels' as folders)?
    Looking forward to hearing from you and thanks in advance for your time.
    Peace
    DK

    you can configure your gmail account as an imap account in mac mail. Then you can drag and drop either way between the 2 accounts. Once you have done that when you login to gmail webmail the mail will have been added there.
    If you want to configure gmail webmail to recieve mail from a different mail account other than your gmail then you need to goto the gmail website for answers as this is not related to apple.
