Mail Check Flow

Hello all, is there someone able to clarify the workflow that an email message takes when it goes through an IronPort Appliance?
I have looked at documentation, and i can see how the features works and their functions, but, i did not find a kind of correlation about them. For example:
We have HAT, RAT, Mail Policy, Message Filter, Content Filter and so on...which one is the first and what are the process on inbound and outbound messages? How is it checked and in which order along all these "steps" ?
I have to create an internal procedure in my company, but first, i need to understand this to transfer better explanations to our papers.
Any help will be very apreciable.
Thanks a lot.

Mauro,
On the ESA, go to the upper right, click on "Help and Support > Online Help" Once it opens up the help, click on the Contents tab, select Configuration Guide, you should see a listing for "Understanding the Email Pipeline". Basically it flows from top to bottom in that table.
Or this doc, chapter 4, (pg 77).

Second display control & E-mail checking

Anyone got this feature to work. If I try to initiate mail checking from the start menu, all programs, second display control, mail checking after filling in the panel it fails with a "failed to connect" message. Can find no help info for this feature. Anyone tried it with any success?

Fair enough, then how do I close out that last E-Mail from being displayed, without closing out the program?

No Mailed Check received for My Return

I returned 3 iphone 6 to the Apple Store at Los Gatos, CA
on Oct 1, 2014 and I was promised to receive 3 mail checks before Oct 7th by the manager.
However, I still have not received my checks today and since I have been relocated to another country, it’s extremely difficult and inconvenient for me to call the store. I told the manager specifically that I will be out of states by Oct 17th and he said “ it won’t be a problem”.I don’t know what happened and why it takes so long. I generally feel satisfied about the customer service of Apple but this time I’m very disappointed.
I tried to contact apple but there is no way for me to use email. I'm not sure if posting question here helps but it seems I have no other choices.
My email is [email protected], if anyone (maybe apple?) can help, email me, thank you.

It's not easy for me to call from another country. Plus, I had my friends call the store and after many transfers, they said " I do not have access to this information and I'll check and see what I can do". Then my friends left theirs phone numbers and never hear back from the store. They have been checking for 2 weeks after my friends called.

Looking for a POP mail checker for xfce4?

Hi,
Is there any pop mail checker for xfce4? Something like mail notification ( http://www.nongnu.org/mailnotify/ )?
Oh, and I don't want to install gnome or kde stuff!
Thanks.

yes, for your proc-mail ^_^

How to disable login mail checking?

I would like to disable the mail checking on each login: I am not interested in seeing "No new mail" or else each time I login in a console. In other distributions, there was a specific setting in /etc/login.defs:
MAIL_CHECK_ENAB = no
I do not find this option in the arch /etc/login.defs, nor it is mentioned in man login or man login.defs; trying to set it anyway results in login complianing about badformed configuration file.
I also tried to comment out both MAIL_DIR and QMAIL_DIR, but without success.
Is there an other method to get this result? Thanks in advance for your help.

I have finally solved this issue, after only 4 months (it was my first issue using archlinux). Since the most part of shadow functionality is managed by pam, /etc/login.defs is not used at all. I had to edit /etc/pam.d/login. I had to comment out this line in that file:
# session optional pam_mail.so dir=/var/spool/mail standard
I am very satisfied, I hated those unuseful "No new mail"

C3 - automatic e-mail checks fail

My C3 is supposed to check my e-mail automatically, and send me a notification if there is any mail. However, this doesn't work. No automatic checking, no notifications. I tried everything: sounds are on, battery is fully loaded, memory is available, settings for e-mail checks are 00:00 to 00:00, very fast loading of e-mails...
Manual loading works OK, but I want automatic loading!
I did a hardware reset, reloaded the software, no effect. What else can I do? Please help!
Solved!

Hi,
I think you need to check your account settings :
option - > More -> Account settings ->
-update my inbox =manually /FAst / Very fast
-Alert me for new mail = on/off
_alert me only during 00.00-00.00 Better on midnight to midnight
I hope this helps

Mail checking interval through the day and weekends?

I'm used of working with Windows mobile, I synced my mail with the exchange server from the office, it checked during weekdays from 8 am till 10 pm, the other hours it was on manual. I'm now a very happy iphone user, but I'm really missing this feature, I get mail all the time, so also during the night :\ I really don't want to wake up for some stupid spam mail. Is there a solution for getting the mail check interval planned?

Hi,
I believe the mail alert is on . So please change it.
Below is the usual settings for Gmail account:
option - > More -> Account settings ->
- Update my inbox =manually /FAst / Very fast
- Alert me for new mail = on/off
- Alert me only during 00.00-00.00 Better on midnight to midnight
I hope this helps.

Apple mail will not recieve emails without delay. Going offline is not working. Connection Doctor is successfull. Mail check set to every minute.

I am using Apple mail on my Imac. My emails are coming in but always late...the delay varies from 15 minutes to over an hour.
Im using imap...email hosting is via Godaddy. (imap.secureserver.net) I would normally blame Godaddy, but I use the same account on my Iphone... yet their is no problems whatsoever. I set them up using the exact same information.
- Mail check is set to every minute.
- Connection Doctor successfully connects right away for both incoming and outgoing.
- Closing the program and reopening does not work... Nor does going offline and checking for mail.
- Check mail button does nothing...literally nothing.
Currently using Yosemite 10.10.2
Any help would be greatly appreciated!:)

Delete the GoDaddy account from Internet Accounts (make sure to select Remove All)
Locate the Cached folder, after you find the com.apple.mail folder, delete everything inside the cache (all folders and files)
Restart your machine
Re-add your email account from within Apple Mail: Mail - Accounts... - Add Other Account
Fill out your account info fully, re-launch Mail

Turn off e-mail checking?

Is there a way to turn off the e-mail checking on the BB? I sit at my desk 90% of the time, right in front Outlook, so if an e-mail comes in I know it pretty quickly. There is really no need for my BB to receive the e-mail as well unless I leave my office. So, is there a way to turn off e-mail checking, then turn it back on when I leave my office (and shut down Outlook)?
Jesse

Again, an imperfect suggestion, but I just open my sound profile and turn off email notifications while I'm at work. Then back on again when I'm away from my computer. Messages still get delivered but it doesn't ring. To be honest, I always forget to turn the sound back on but I still seem to notice emails when I'm doing other things (phone calls, SMS, etc.).
Rgrds,
Aaron
Washing machines are a great way to find out it's time for a new phone.

XP Productivity Centre/Message Centre's Mail Checker

Been using Thinkpad for some time now and recently I been going through stuff in Program Files and for the first time found a neat thing called a Mail Checker in the Producitivity Center folder (never knew it existed). Went about some experiment and research only to found out it only "works" if you have a backdrop keboard LED, which I don't have. Well I did get it to highlight blue in the Productivity Center's Message Center area but obviously I won't have any clue when.
Some confusion: I also have the separate Message Center installed so I was wondering what relationship does that have to the Productivity Center? Because I was thinking since I can't notified through the Prod. Center's Message Center maybe I can get it to pop up a bubble from the system tray... (I didn't upgrade it with Plus yet). But I have doubt that kind of relationship doesn't really exist between the two program. Any idea? Or is it really not feasible?
Thanks.

if you open prod. cen. then click view all messages that will open this then click on preferences then uncheck the box hide bubble mess. the messages will popup from the tray on the right they also show in thinkvantage toolbox

Manual mail check preference ignored

I set a preference for Mail in Mavericks to check mail manually, but Mail checks automatically anyway. How can I get it to stop?

Apple support and they say that normal behavior for the mail app is to automatically check for mail when the app is started and waking from sleep is somehow the same as starting the app.
Mine doesn't do that, so I guess my Mail is broken according to Apple support.
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.

Mail-check indicator?

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I have noticed that the mail-check indicator in the Mail Activity area (under the mailboxes) no longer comes on.
It still shows a status bar when mail comes in or goes out; I'm talking about the indicator that Mail is checking for new mail.
I kind of like to see it. Has it been discarded or is there a way to make it viewable?

There are no indications of that anymore, and I don't know of a way to change that. If it fails, it will display an error message.

Random iphone 3g battery drain ... appears to be a background mail check

Phone Info: Model: 16GB/Black, 3g ON, OS 2.0.1, Mail: Push On and Manual Fetch, Location SVCs ON, LCD auto bright, Own this phone for 20 days.
I noticed (twice) that my phone battery drained up overnight after a full charge 5 hours earlier. It happened once with OS 2.0 and other time with OS 2.0.1. I started suspecting background apps (while the phone is in standby - blank screen) probably doing some unnecessary work and draining the battery juice.
I did some investigation during last week to turn on/off various parameters to close on which app is causing trouble. It appears to be Apple mail program! If I turn off all mail accounts, phone "Settings->General->usage meter" goes up by approx. 1min/hour when the phone is in standby. With my 3 mail accounts (2 yahoo and 1 gmail) on, usage meter goes up anywhere from 4-12 mins/hour or lot longer in some cases. This translates to about 100-250 mins of phone usage time/day without really opening up the phone. On 3G phone, 4 hrs of usage is where battery goes from full to 10% charge.
Details: The above problem doesn't happen always! This happens only when mail application spins in the background for a *long time* to fetch or sync mail. When it happens you see a rapid battery drain in standby. This is a most common scenario when you have a network connection (web browsing OK) but somehow the mail sync up (thru' SSL POP) takes forever. This is what I tried to reproduce: Goto mail->open account1->open inbox .. when it is spinning to fetch mail manually.. 30-45sec later give up and try another mail account..repeat above and press home button finally(at this point as a typical user you waited 1-2 mins to get mail on Wifi and gave up.. we are talking about your inbox having zero new in/out mails!. This is just for syncing your phone with the server). You can press standby and turn off the phone screen. Check couple hours later and usage meter goes up by how long the mail was spinning in the background.
I think the right implementation is Apple Mail should turn off background check when the user closes the app! OR at the least detect the phone is in standby and stop spinning after a small timeout.
Mail Push on or off has no effect on the problem. No other settings (3g on/off, GPS...) have any effect.. they don't increase background battery usage!
Appreciate your posts on any workarounds or fixes to this problem.

I'm flying blind here, a little, because I'm not currently using a 3G iPhone. However, I use MobileMe on my iMac, MacBook Pro and a Windows Vista laptop. Keep in mind that MobileMe syncs not only your email, but your calendar, contacts, bookmarks, etc. If possible, turn off MobileMe at night when you don't need to sync. See if that stops the spinning globe. When Apple changed from dotmac to MobileMe--offering "push" email, calendar updates, etc.--battery drain on the iPhone was bound to happen, because it takes battery power to connect to the MobileMe server. That's true of BlackBery's as well as any other mobile device using "push" technology.
Turning your POP and other email accounts off probably doesn't change MobileMe's synching with calendar, contacts, bookmarks, etc. I've noticed when I make a change on my MacBook Pro or iMac that the change does not take place immediately, unlike a BlackBerry connected to an Enterprise server. I'm assuming you're not using ActivSync with an Enterprise server. Neither do I since I use the BlackBerry Internet Service (BES). Emails, using BES, usually hit my BlackBerry before hitting Apple Mail on my Macs, but BEST is only pushing email.
Best answer to problem? Turn off your iPhone at night and save battery power. Not a perfect solution if you want to take phone calls at night. But until AT&T improves its 3G network (more towers, more 3G radios, etc.), that's the easiest way to keep your battery powered.
I explain the battery power situation in my V1 iPhone review. Google "Mobile Telephony Innovations iPhone" and you'll see the review listing.

How frequent is mail checking?

I am trying to decide which email service to use on my iPhone
So far I have setup Yahoo (which is my real email service), a gMail account and a trial .mac account.
None of the settings seems to allow you to say how often the phone should check your email system for new messages.
Yahoo has the push technology, which by reading the forums you learn is very sporadic at the moment.
What about gmail and .mac? When I send test emails to them from my Mac they sometimes arrive in a minute, other times it can take over an hour.
If I go into mail on the iPhone I can ask it to refresh, which retrieves the emails but surely the point is that it should periodically check for you

You know something, I was in the middle of replying to this email with the response...
"Where? I can not see that option"
then I found it -- thanks for that, I totally missed it
