Mail 6.0

I've upgraded to 10.8
Mail is set to open on launch - which it does - sort of!
Mail launches and checks mail but for the life of me I cant get it to automatically open a "mail" window.
It sits there collecting mail on the dock, but doesn't open a mail window... unless I click the mail icon.
In lion it launched and opened the in-box window.
Any idea how to fix this?
Peter

No problems,
Its caught me out before too.

How can I disable sending from one Mail account?

Hello. I have a gmail account that I use to subscribe to various newsletters and accounts. So it's essentially a read-only account for me. But I too frequently accidently send mail from that account. Is there a way to prevent mail from being sent from that account?

I want to do the same thing as the OP. I have tried making outgoing server none. And checking "always use this server so it prompts me to edit the message so that I manually select a different address to send from inthe drop down list. And selecting a different account for composing. Actually, all my outgoing emails keep coming from the one account I am attempting to disable. Got any other ideas?

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?
Have an Exchange mail account setup and accessible in my mail on iPad... however my kids use it and i would like to restrict them from accessing this specific portion of the device. I tried viewing restriction options and do not see that i can apply a restriction specifically to Mail. Thanks for your help.

Not a feature of iOS. Check the AppStore to see if there are other
mail apps that allow passcode protection.
Or use Safari to log onto your email via a web-based interface and
enter your credentials each time. A bit slower, but the kids will
not know the details to login.

How can I move an e mail account from one family pack to another

I have an e mail address (not main family pack e mail address) and I would like to move it to another family pack. Is this possible and if so how?
Thanks

Caroline12, Welcome to the discussion area!
I believe that your question is about a Mobile Me family pack account. If that is true, I believe that the answer is no.
But your probably should post your question in the Apple.com > Support > Discussions > MobileMe discussion area.

How can I display not only one account's mail but all in the central inbox?

I am changing from OSX (machines with OSX 1.8.5 and Mavericks) mail to Thunderbird.
However, one feature of OSX Mail I can't find in Thunderbird or have overseen it:
I use several mail accounts, that OSX Mail is showing me on top level in one general inbox.
Below that level, I can of course jump into the different accounts if needed to read mails only related to that account.
Is there a similar view in Thunderbird?
Thanks for any help

Filename in sender Mail Adapter

Hi Experts,
Brief about Scenario:
Invoice generated with PDF format in R/3 system and send to mail box. XI pick that file from mail box and deposited in SFTP Server.
Landscape in XI end.
Mailbox - - - XI 7.0 - - - SFTP
The file name generated with CompanyCode_InvoiceType_InvoiceNumber.PDF from R/3 system. So that Same file name should be deposited in SFTP Server . Here CompanyCode and InvoiceType are static and invoiceNumber generated dynamically with PDF format.
My question is How to get file name from mail box.
Thanks in advance.

Hups. I forgot what was your main problem
To get attachment file name you can try to implement you own adapter module as described [here|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/Adapter%20Module%20PI%207.0%20Get%20Attachment%20Name?bc=true]:
I found it in this [thread|Need to get the Mail attachment name as it is to the receiver file adapter;.
Please check that thread. The question is "not answered" but the last post states it was solved that way.

Cannot send email from yahoo mail client

I cannot open or send or attach anything to my email in the yahoo mail. I know there's nothing wrong with the email because it works on my laptop, just not on my computer. Could there be a setting problem, or a cookie problem or something?
I also cannot open Bonjour to see my printer settings. Everything was working fine yesterday.

outgoing mail server
SMTP - Yahoo! SMTP Server
primary server
Yahoo! SMTP server - ON
server port 465
That's what I have for my yahoo account.

Cannot send email from Mail through .mac account

I have recently opened a .mac account and started using the email service. It works fine online however I am having difficulty sending messages through the Mail application in Tiger.
Whenever I attempt to send a message, a dialog box appears saying "Cannot send message using the server smtp.mac.com".
I have tried looking at the setting in preferences. I have deleted and .mac a/c setting in Mail and re-set them up, all the problem persists.
Please help!

Hello David.
Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet and are you accessing an email account snd SMTP server in Mail provided by your ISP?
If so, can you send messages with the email account and SMTP server provided by your ISP?
Most, if not all ISPs now block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network (or not provided by the ISP used for connecting to the internet) on Port 25 which is the standard port used for SMTP servers. Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) that is outside of their network on Port 25 but some block its use regardless.
These restrictions are part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
Something to try.
Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings below for the .Mac SMTP server.
Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
Test if this resolves the problem.
If not and you are accessing an email account and SMTP server in Mail that is provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet, select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send mail with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.

Cannot send email from the Mail App?

I've had an izymail subscription for 1 year and just renewed it last week. I could never send an email from my Mail App without a window popping up stating "izymail cannot connect to the server" and the sending bar (along the bottom of the screen) just freezes and will not send.
I've a Hotmail account linked up to izymail. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

I fixed my problem - I deleted my email account on my iPhone, then tried to setup a new account. I had a few problems setting it up. It wouldn't recognize the incoming or outgoing servers and I lost my email altogether for a few hours. Then I changed every setting possible and finally figured out that I had 2-3 "Other SMTP Servers" as well as my "Primary Server". Once I deleted the Other SMTP Servers, my email worked and i'm able to send emails now!
I also think changing the "Server Port" number helped solve my problem also, and making sure "Use SSL" was turned off.

Cannot send email from outlook 2011 (Mac) on public networks but can send via Mac Mail

I cannot send mail with Outlook from anywhere other than my work or home network, will not work even when accessing 4g with my phone hotspot; very frustrating. I am using Yosemite & Macbook Pro (2012). if i use the Apple Mail everything works fine so I can only assume it is a setting on Outlook?

Update - I now have it working.
am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
outgoing server - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked - port now 587
on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

Mail rules sending mail to wrong folder

I'm downloading all my multi-account Gmail (thousands) into Mail app with rules set up to reroute gmails into their proper account inboxes/sent folders/etc. However, Mail seems to be ignoring everything I want it to do and moves ALL mail into Account 1 of my 3 inboxes. Example:
If From is equal to "[email protected]" then move message to Account 1 sent folder.
If To is equal to "[email protected]" and it's in Account 1 or Account 3, then move message to Account 2 inbox.
etc.
Could it be message overload?

This is not working for me either, as of a week or two ago. Junk mail is marked as junk, but stays in my inbox, regardless of my junk mail settings. I have it set to move junk to the junk folder, but Mail simply refuses to do so. I tried changing the setting, closing preferences, opening prefs and changing it back, but that does not help either.
Sadly this is the least of my problems with Mail in Leopard. I've had nothing but problems with it so far and I'm getting really frustrated. I'm running out of patience and ideas and it may simply be time to wipe out all my mailboxes and preferences, reimport all my old mail and start over from scratch again.

TS3899 Mail going to wrong folder

I have contact emails in my phone that are sending to my junk mail folder instead of my inbox. One contact is even marked as VIP. Can you help with this?

Jeff:
I have gotten hostname as you suggested, and thus far seen one Helo failure prior to that, so thanks for the tip.
The queue is running like 150k to 170k, I've got content filter off right in order to isolate problems.
This wrong account issue is causing some severe creditability issues with this server as you can imagine.
Thanks for the help.

Mail.app keeps saving downloads to Mail Downloads rather than ~/Downloads

I've modified Mail.app preferences to save downloads in the main downloads folder, ~/Downloads. But every time I double click an attachment, it still downloads to the wrong folder, Mail Downloads, in a terribly nested directory, ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Mail Downloads.
I've tried restarting Mail.app, I've tried restarting Mac OS X, to no avail. This is starting to smell like a constant's set somewhere, instead of referring to the current application preference.

When you get an email with attachments, mail automatically unpacks attachments into those funky nested folders. If you open the attachment directly that's what it opens, because it assumes that you just want to look at the attachment, not save it. on the other hand, if you right-click and explicitly choose download it will download a copy into the downloads folder where you expect it.
