Mail - how to create follow-up reminder?

Hello, I'm using apple Mail for email. Can anyone please tell me how to tag an email message with a reminder or alert to follow up on a specific future date? I get a lot of emails that require action by a date in the future. Unlike the flag feature in outlook, the flag in Mail doesn't appear to offer this.
Thanks for your help...

Hi Dapod,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Using Mountain Lion, you can drag an email message to the Reminders application on the dock to launch it.
Apple - OS X - So many powerful apps. Built right in.

How to create a reminder from Mail?

Hello, is there any way how to quickly create a reminder in Reminders application directly from Mail application?
I have found a guide how to do that in Mountain Lion (http://www.cnet.com/how-to/add-an-e-mail-to-the-os-x-reminders-app-for-easy-foll ow-up/), but it seems that this procedure is no longer working in Yosemite. Could it be caused by the fact that I am trying to create an iCloud reminder for an e-mail message coming from Exchange?
Thank you for any hints.

You cannot drop something onto an app window that was still in Exposé mode (only window on a dark background). After hovering over the app icon, and when the app window appears in Exposé, hover over that until the app comes into the foreground. Then, you should get a green + badge on the drag icon.
If you start dragging and cmd-tab to Reminders, the window should be an active drop zone immediately.

How to create lead follow up opportunity....

Hello,
How to create lead follow up opportunity automatically... Also my clients need is when we change the status of Lead from Open or In-Process or Won to Completed then an automatic email should go to the employee responsible in the lead.
Please help me in this.... I tried doing this by creating Action profile & assigning that action profile to transaction type but didn't get the expected result.
I would really appreciate some one help on this.... Please describe it in steps for automatic Opportunity creation & also for email.
Thanks,
Ajeet

Using action is correct approach. You just have to configure action properly. For follow-up use in action 'method call' and use method 'copy_document' and as parameter specify transaction type that you want to be created as follow-up.
For mail, you can use in action trigger_alert method.

How to create procedure to mail ORA-error

hi all,
anyone please tell me how to create a procedure to mail the ORA-error when ORA- error comes in alert.log

Ok, I can't really do this for you. It's not hard, just a lot of back-and-forth testing needs to be done. To do it solely in PL/SQL you need to monitor the alter_<sid>.log file for changes and filter the changed records for ORA- errors.. So, first step is to create, or get the dba to create a directory for that bdump directory. This will allow you to open the file for reading in PL/SQL
This is on an XE 10g database as SYSTEM user, with poly being the database user that is monitoring the file.
select value from v$parameter where name like 'background_dump_dest';
/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/admin/XE/bdump
SQL> CREATE DIRECTORY BDUMP_DIR AS '/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/admin/XE/bdump';
create directory succeeded.
SQL> grant read on directory alert_dir to poly;
grant read succeeded.After this, you need to read the file and search for ORA- messages. You use the UTL_FILE package to do this. The following subprograms in UTL_FILE will be useful to you.
Function: UTL_FILE.FOPEN You use this to open the file in readonly mode. Please look at the UTL_FILE documentation examples.
Procedure: UTL_FILE.GET_LINE You use this to read lines into PL/SQL
Procedure: UTL_FILE.GETATTR You use this to get the filelength. If the filelength is different from your previous call, you know some writes occurred.
Procedure UTL_FILE.FSEEK You use this to position the reading stream to the first byte of new data read. You've detected the file has grown in size and do something like utl_file.fseek(file_desc,last_file_length+1)
Procedure UTL_FILE.FCLOSE Close file when done.
Pseudologic:
This logic assumes you have a table which stores the filelength from the last time you executed the procedure. This allows you to only process records that have not already been processed.
1. Read last file length from persistent storage such as a table. Default to zero if no value.
2. Get filelength using UTL_FILE.GETATTR
3. Compare filelength. If equal to prior value, exit. If greater, than more lines added. If less, then dba must have rolled the log, reset prior filelength to zero to process entire new file.
4. Use UTL_FILE.FSEEK to position reader to one byte past last file length. This is why we default it to zero, 0+1=1.
5. Open file using UTL_FILE.FOPEN
6. Loop while data is avaliable, read each line, use instr or whatever to detect ORA- messages, call SMTP mailer as needed. You may want to log each email into a log table.
7. After loop, set persisted last file length (update a table and commit maybe) to value returned from UTL_FILE.FGETPOS.
8. Sleep for some interval of time. Start back at step 1.
You should consider using DBMS_SCHEDULER to set up this job.
There are lots of other ways of doing this. Remember that it's possible for your database to crash and your procedure might not be able to send an email. If someone edits the alter file and adds lines anywhere other than at the end, your program may resend some messages.

Mail how to save an email address from new message created?

Hi, I create a new message, type in the address, but i want to save the address in the address book. How the heck is this possible?
If i select the email address i control click it, there is NO menu and no options to save the address.
If i click on the AddressBook button in the tool bar, there is no add button, and i can't drag it to across either, or copy/paste.
The Help says "In a message that you are sending, click the arrow in a Smart Address you have entered and choose "Add to Address Book" from the pop-up menu." There is absolutely NO arrow and NO menu. Even when i turn ON 'Use Smart Addresses' There is absolutely Nothing in ANY menu that lets me save the address.
So how the frell is it even possible to save an address? So what, i have to send the email first then wait for someone to reply before i can select 'Add sender to AddressBook' from the message menu? This is madness and certainly not easy or intuitive. And what is the point of the AddressBook button in new messages toolbar?It does nothing. It opens a window and has no options to add an address or enter any details, only has 'TO' But i already know the address!!! Even if i create a new mail , I click the Address book button highlight the address in the list then click the 'TO' button, it does absolutely nothing, im expecting it to just add this address to the address field in the new mail i just created. I then closed the new mail, instead i click the AddressBook button in the main Mail app toolbar, i select an address in the resulting window, hit the 'TO" button, and mail creates a new message, but it doesn't add the address to the new mail's address field, nor does it close it self behind. What a disaster. I thought this was supposed to be simple and eazy, its a nightmare of a design.
I tried 10.4.5 and now just upgraded to 10.4.6 same problem.
Frustrated at the lack of intuitiveness.

Simplest I find is to send the message then look at it in your Sent mailbox. Move the mouse over the To: address and the address will get a blue bubble background with a drop-down arrow at the right end; click this and one of the options should be "add to address book".
When you start a new message, and click the Address book icon on its toolbar, an address book window should appear with all the entries (individual and group) from your address book. Selecting one (or several) of the entries and clicking to will add them to the To header in your new mail. Alternatively you can drag them. If this is not the behaviour you are seeing, please repost with a more descriptive subject. (It is better for both those trying to help, and those seeking solutions, if the problem described matches the subject!)
Once you have brought up the little address book window its design behaviour is to stay until you dismiss it; as you say, it does not close when you close the new email. At this stage, selecting an entry and clicking To should start a new email with the To header containing the selected email address. If this is not happening I suspect it is related to your previous problem, so I would include the description there.

Verizon Blackberry Internet Service Client (BIS)- How to create an e-mail Filter

Hello. Thank you in advance for replying to my question. I am trying to create an e-mail filter so that a contact's e-mail messages do not get delivered to my BB and instead just go straight to my regular e-mail account. I understand that you can do this function from the BIS, however when I tried to create an account I received a message that said "please use your device to access the BIS." I did just as the message told me but I did not get the same menu options from my BB as I would have gotten from doing it from the internet. The page only showed a list of my e-mails and an "edit" and "delete" choice for each one. There was no "Filter" button for me to click. I remember a while ago I able to access this page and was able to remove the BB signature (i.e.. "This message is being sent from a BB"), so I know that it was possible to access this page. I do not know why I am not able to accesses it now.
If anyone out there has Verizon and knows how to access the BIS, please let me know how. Or if you know how to create an e-mail filter function, please let me know.
Thank you,
Fred
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi there!
To log into your BIS account from a PC/browser (not the BB browser), go to this URL:
https://bis.na.blackberry.com/html?brand=vzw
Enter your BIS credentials and you will then be in your BIS account screen. From there, use this KB to create the filter you desire:
KB04558 Add a filter to a BlackBerry Internet Service account
Good luck and let us know!

How to create a group mailing list in JavaMail?

Hello,
I've been searching through the entire API, specifically the InternetAddress class and I can't seem to find out how to create a group/mailing list. Does anyone know how to do this?
That is, I would like to be able to group a bunch of e-mail addresses together and give that group a name "my friends". Then send it off using this 'group mail address' as opposed to an array of InternetAddress[]. Then when the recipients receive the e-mail, they see "my friends" in the To: field, instead of everyone's e-mail address...
Is this possible in JavaMail? I've tried many things like creating an InternetAddress object passing in a comma-delimited list of e-mail addresses but it doesn't like it.
Thanks in advance!

Hi:
I have the same problem. I've read JavaMail implements RFC 822 which allow mailing lists. But, �how can I implement it with JavaMail?
Best regards,

There are loads of "+What if's+" - and in that respect, playing "+What if database is down..+" in this case does not make any sense. You do not use the database to monitor its own up/down status. You do not rely just on SMTP as notification protocol that the database is down.
The correct approach would be using something like SNMP as the monitoring protocol. A monitoring system that can process SNMP and perform some basic root cause analysis (e.g. network to the database server down, database server status unknown). And this system supporting notification methods like SMTP, SMS and so on.

How do I get a reminder for birthdays on my "Contact" list to pop up on my e-mail, like FaceBook does?

How do I get a reminder for birthdays from my "Contact" list to pop up on my g-mail, like FaceBook does? In other words, how can I set up a reminder for birthdays to come up on my g-mail from my Contact list, perhaps a few days before the birth date? I use e-mail more than FaceBook; and my Contact list is larger and more complete. Thank you. Please e-mail your answer to: [email protected]

Firefox does not have a contact list. Any contact list that you have will be part of the email service that you are using, you will need to check with the support for that email service to see if they offer such a feature.
