Mail Client Switch (Email Migration Issue)

I am having mail migration issues.
I am not able to import mails, calender and address data from windows outlook to my mac entourage.
It seems entourage import function is not supporting this feature.
Is there any other way I can Import all my data?

For migrating from MS outlook to Entourage you need to get your pst files in mbox format & that can be done by importing pst files in thunderbird, it will convert your existing pst files to mbox format. This can be done only you have access to Machine Outlook Installed with.
Else You can give a try to an application here:
Pst Converter Pro
hope this helps.

Emails automatically opens when mail client is launched

When my wife launches her mail client, the emails in her inbox are opened automatically one after another. The only to stop it is to do a force quit. It does not happen on my mail client in my profile on the same computer.
Tried rebooting the iMac but it doesnt help.
Would appreciate any help I can get. thanks,
Venu

I temporarily fixed the problem by using a simple applescript that plays the notification sound if there are unread mails:
tell application "Mail" to if (count of (every message of inbox whose read status is false)) is greater than 0 then do shell script "afplay '/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Resources/New Mail.aiff'"
but I hope that in the next update they will fix this strange bug.

Users Having Troubling Sending Email with Mac Mail Client with Godaddy

Hello,
I recently had issues' with my mail and my new Mac Pro and sending emails from www.godaddy.com. I tried 4 email clients and could retrieve my emails but the outgoing mail server keep rejecting my password. After I almost switch email companies I called one last person from godaddy. The support person James M suggested deleting the account in my email manager on godaddy system and re-created the account and everything works fine. Please note, to back up emails before doing this. I think something is corrupting something in the server that requires the deletion of the email account that is only effecting 10.64 users.
Best of luck,
M

Have GoDaddy reset the SMTP relays to 0 (zero), then back up to 250 (or whatever your limit is). This reset the password authentication and emails were sent fine afterwards. Good luck.

Migrating for outlook to t-bird, trying to import mail, error "either there is no default mail client...", I have confirmed that outlook is default, ?

I am migrating from Outlook to Thunderbird.
I have purchased a new computer running windows 8.
I have copied the outlook data file from my old computer to he new computer.
I have installed Thunderbird on my new computer.
I try to import existing email stored in Outlook to Thunderbird.
I get the message "either there is no default mail client..." I have made Outlook the default mail client and have rebooted the computer.
Any way to get thunderbird to recognize the Outlook file?
Tom

The automatic import routine only works if you have TB and the old program installed on the same machine. If possible, I suggest you install TB on the old computer that currently has Outlook, run the auto-import, and then transfer the TB profile from the old computer to TB on the new machine.

The method I've found that is the simplest and most reliable is to copy the Thunderbird folder from the old machine to the new one:

"Attach to Email" option launches outlook rather than default mail client

The "Attach to Email" option luanches outlook rather than Seamonkey, which is set to be the default mail client. Any ideas regrding fixing this would be most appreciated. This is Adobe Acrobat 9 PRO v. 9.0.0 running on a 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium 4.0 GB machine.
Thanks,

Not sure but this might be a Windows Control Panel Issue.

Submit By Email Doesn't Launch Outlook 2010 as Default Mail Client, though Outlook is properly set a

A form designed in LiveCycle Designer with a Submit By Email button, doesn't launch Outlook 2010 (Standard Edition) when clicked, although Outlook is properly configured as Default Mail Client. Checked with Microsoft and followed all proper steps yet the button doesn't invoke Outlook onClick. However, Outlook is launched if a link or html button, set to the mailto syntax is clicked. Is this a PDF form issue for LiveCycle or is there something I am missing? Please any ideas?

I have this problem on Win7 64bit, but it seems to work fine with XP and Vista. Not sure about Win7 32bit.
I've also seen the problem in the past with programs like Thunderbird set to be the default email client (on XP).
I've never been able to figure out if it's an Adobe or Microsoft problem. Adobe uses the MAPI settings to find the email client.

Email sent from Nexus 4 not showing in Mail client

Going from an iPhone to an Android device has it's own issues, but one that shouldn't be an issue is that of IMAP emails.
In replying to any email from the Nexus 4, it will not be available to view in Apple's Mail client, which I use for all 5 of my email accounts. It will show in Mail that the email has been replied to with the arrow on the left of the email, but it will not allow me to click on the arrow to see the email I sent. It gives me an error message, 'Mail was unable to find your reply to the message "email subject title". You may have deleted the message'. Nope, I didn't delete the message, but now I can't see it. This is a very crucial missing element for business reply emails. My compnay uses GMail servers for all it's mail, so it's not a me.com email issue specifically. Funny enough, that email account set up the easiest. It doesn't show messages sent from the Nexus 4 either, but I'm sure it's all part of the same problem.
Is anyone else having this same/similar issue?
Thanks for the help, Bruce.

For Exchange GMail there is a way to set your iOS device to use a different "Send As" name than when using a computer. Unfortunately in your case, you can set your computer to send an alternate name but the iOS device can only send the default GMail name, which is the name associated with your account. Ideally, you would like your iOS device to use the alternate and let your computer use the default.
But if you want to play around with this ...
1- On the iOS device itself, use Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync. You will have to log in at the prompt with your GMail account info.
2- Select the iOS device name (in case you have multiple iOS devices using Google sync).
3- Select "Enable 'Send Mail As' for this device" and Save the changes.
4- Using a computer, log into your GMail account and select Settings/ Accounts and Import, then at the "Send mail as" prompt select "edit info" (off to the right).
5- Change your outgoing name.
The name you specify in #5 will be used by your computer, but the iOS device will continue using the original (default) outgoing name. You can see why you need the opposite in your case, so unless you can change the default to be your wife's name and then set the alternate to be your name, I think you're out of luck.

Apple Mail clients not retrieving emails properly over IMAP

I posted this in Tiger Mail but no responses; hopefully someone here has some knowledge of this issue.
I'm testing an email server on 10.5 with IMAP.
Here's my setup all using the same user IMAP account.
1 Outlook 2007
1 Thunderbird (on Vista Business)
2 Mail 2.1.3 on 2 different 10.4.11 Apples (one Mac Mini and one MacBook Pro 17")
1 iPhone
When sending emails to this user account, all the non-Apple Mail clients receive them instantly or after I force a 'Send/Receive' command without any problems.
The 2 Apple Mail clients do not receive the new emails on their own OR with 'Get Mail' command OR the 'Synchronize' command. They flat out refuse to receive new emails.
When I close and reopen the Apple mail clients, they do receive the new emails immediately. OR if I select an existing mail message in the view, then they receive the new emails.
Totally weird but definitely an Apple Mail issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

After trying to isolate every variable, I created a new test account and deleted the existing one I had been using. Problem solved - it works great now!
For some reason, the original user account had some type of corruption.

Unable to acces Email (web, online, mail client) password ok

Since this morning I had been unable to acces my emails from my Icloud account.
From Apple mail client I get the error message: "The iCloud IMAP server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password"
However I am able to log on Icloud from any browser (safari, firefox, chrome) and acces calendar, contacts, etc. However I get an error message when I want to access emails and get the "option" to send an error report to apple (thing that I did several times).
Changed my Apple Id password, just in case with no success.
Also I called support where they told me it could be a "server issue" and now the case shows "closed" when I check it.
Does any one had any idea what could be happening?

I called Applecare, and open case # 331263318 however since seems to be a "server issue" they cannot help and "closed the case". Aparently I have to wait... (till when is the question).

Receive email delay one hour using Mac Mail client (Mountain Lion) connect Exchange Server 2010

Hi all,
My boss use iPhone, iPad, MacBook Air (Mac Mail client), MacPro (Mac Mail client) connect Exchange Serve 2010 to receive emails. All clients are okay except MacBook Air, the Mac Mail client cannot receive the latest emails from Exchange Server, but it can receive (sync) the emails after one hour. The other clients can receive the latest email after Exchange Server receive new emails immediately.
In this period, the MacBook Air can receive the other IMAP, POP3 and webmail from ISP normally. I tried to set 5 mins to check emails or manual check email from Exchange Server. However, the latest email still delay one hour.......... .
I dumped a screenshot for Mac Mail setting for Exchange Server and a Log file.
could anyone help me to solve this issue?
Thanks

I am not sure what the user has the check for new messages set for but mail does arrive as short as 2 minutes. It does however arrive on his iphone immediately first.

No email access from Mail clients or iPad

I have been using the same email account for years with no issues.
I can access email through web browser, and can even forward e-mails to my blackberry.
Mac Mail, Mac Outlook, IPAD thunderbird etc. Can no longer access my Verizon yahoo email account. I have tried every suggestion to date. Tried every port combination suggested with SSL on and off. Deleted all accounts and started from scratch.. Reset IPAD from scratch. The last email I received through Mail was Feb. 3. Downloaded the automated program which didn't work, I tried online chat with Verizon tech, but they claimed that since I could still access email through the web, its an Apple software issue. The Apple store is blaming Verizon for not providing the appropriate port info etc to access. And truthfully, with all of the information on the Verizon website to set up mail client software, there is no set of rules that seems to apply.
On this message board it states verizon.net, or the webpage doesn't exist. On other pages it suggests yahoo.verizon.net. Fios comes up with different info from DSL, and old port info (25) is still out there
It seems there is no solution, just hit or miss attempts. As Apple marketshare increases, the support provided is somehow getting to be less than it already was.
Sorry to ramble on, but this is really frustrating
Mac 10.7.3
Mail 5.2
Outlook 14.1.4
Verizon Yahoo email account
Please help

I was able to get email to work using the following settings:
Incoming Mail Server:
     Name=incoming.yahoo.verizon.net
     SSL=no
     Port=110
Outgoing Mail Server
     Name=outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
     SSL=no
     Port=587

Vonage email notifications and Apple Mail client

Vonage provides a very nice feature in which, as soon as someone leaves a voice mail message, Vonage sends out an email notification to up to five different email addresses, in addition to sending a text message to a cell phone alerting you that someone has left you a voice message on your Vonage phone. Besides getting just a text-based email notification, you can also opt to have Vonage attach a .WAV file to the email it sends to those email accounts you list in your account settings page on the Vonage web site. I think this is a great feature, because I have my iPhone set up to receive the text message, and I also configured my email accounts to receive the email notifications together with the attached .WAV file, so I can listen to the recorded voice mail messages right on the iPhone, without having to dial in to a Vonage number, or go to the Vonage web site to listen to the voice mail via a computer.
While the Vonage email notifications with the attached .WAV files arrive just fine in my mac.com and my aol.com email accounts, those same email messages are NOT being sent to my the roadrunner.com email account provided by Time-Warner cable, my Internet Service Provider.
When I brought this matter up the tech support people at Vonage, they theorized that the roadunner server might be blocking receipt of the emails sent by the Vonage server. However, the problem does not seem to be related to roadrunner.com, because those email messages actually do reside on the roadrunner server. I can see them all right, but only if I use a browser and check my messages via their Web Mail application. For some mysterious reason, my Apple Mail client is NOT receiving those messages, and I have no clue why that would be so.
Does anybody know what is going on here? Shouldn't Apple Mail be able to retrieve all the messages on the roadruner server? What could prevent Apple Mail from being able to do that? And, is there anything I can do to make those email notifications —with their attached .WAV files—show up in my Inbox in Apple Mail?
Since I thankfully receiving those email notifications at my mac.com and my aol.com accounts, this is not a mission-critical issue for me. It is merely one of one technical curiosity.

To close out this thread, about all I can say is that the issue does not seem to be related to Apple software or to my Internet Service Provider. It is a Vonage issue that can only be fixed by calling Vonage tech support and getting their programmer/technicians to do whatever it is that they to do on their end to configure their Vonage email notifications to function correctly. If something sneezes, as it did in regards to my account, then Vonage tech support is the first place to call.
I'll consider this issue "answered" now.

Share pages doc via email with chrome mail client

When choosing to share via email I see my mail client listed (chrome webmail) however when I select the format I want to email and select it nothing happens!
Any thoughts or solutions (using native mail app is not an option at work - need to use the chrome browser and email due to working practice).
Also sharing iCloud link via mail doesn't seem to work either!
I am using the latest Yosemite update, latest Pages 5 version.
Thanks in advance.
Allen

Pages v5.5 for Yosemitie saved its documents in one format type: package (folder). Unless these are purposely compressed into a .zip (single file solution), they are incompatible with non-Apple user mail agents. By default, Pages v5.5.1 will save in single file (Apple terminology) format which is this compressed zip format, but with the .pages file extension. Just like the default in Pages ’09. It is compatible with non-Apple mail and storage solutions.
I mention this because your issues may be related to using Pages v5.5, instead of Pages v5.5.1.
Pages v5.5.1 has a File > Advanced > Change File Type > Single File menu item that should allow you to convert (in place) Pages v5.5 documents originally written in the incompatible package format. It you choose the Package style on this submenu, it can be opened by Pages v5.2.2 on Mavericks — something that didn't work with Pages v5.5.

Sending email using system default mail client

I'm working on a project right now, and I have no desire to develop a new mailing system. What would be very convienient for me is to have a call, opening the systems default mail client. Preferrably with some of the fields, like "to" and "Subject" being specifed by me.
I'm not really aware of how the JavaMail system works, but it seems to me like a backend API, able to transmit the mail, but not much else.
Could anyone give some hints on how to open the system default mailer?

I found this example here. Seems pretty good - just what I was looking for too!
from https://jdic.dev.java.net/documentation/Examples.html
Case# 6: Launch the system default mailer and send the constructed message with UI or without UI.
import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Desktop;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.DesktopException;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Message;
public class MailTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Message msg = new Message();
        List toList = new ArrayList();
        toList.add("[email protected]");
        msg.setToList(toList);
        List ccList = new ArrayList();
        ccList.add("[email protected]");
        ccList.add("[email protected]");
        msg.setCcList(ccList);
        msg.setSubject("Hello");
        msg.setBody("Test");
        List attachList = new ArrayList();
        attachList.add("C:\\test\\test.txt");
        msg.setAttachmentList(attachList);
        try {
            // Send mail in UI mode.
            Desktop.mail(msg);
        } catch (DesktopException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
}
