Mail on 10.6.2 - unable to send on one account and the other slow to send
Having two large issues with mail on my new Mac/10.6.2:
1. GMAIL account: since upgrading to 10.6.2 I can no longer send mails. I have tried removing the smtp details and re-adding, with and without SSL and finally removing the email account altogether and redoing the whole setup and all to no avail. When I click send it just gives a continuous spinning wheel on the sending box
2. The other mail account (on my wifes login) takes about 40-60 seconds to send even a one word email. On 10.4 it was instantaneous. Reading the threads 10.6.2 was supposed to address the issue from 10.6.0 but it seems not
Any help hugely appreciated
I did get a "stock" response from Apple support, and I am pasting it below.
While it may help some of you, for me it is NOT a solution. It is as if Apple does not even want to acknowledge this major bug.
I temporarily got around the problem by identifying that the parental controls are actually blocking DNS resolution, and not access to the sites themselves!
Therefore, I added the wildcard SSL website to the /etc/hosts file with it's corresponding IP address as to bypass DNS lookups for it. As long as the IP address does not change all will be OK, so I still do not consider this a fix.
=========== Apple Response ==========
+Secure (HTTPS) websites need to be added to the list of allowed sites (white list). For each site that needs to be added, use the "host" command in Terminal with the domain name to obtain its IP address, then use the host command with the IP address to obtain the reverse domain name. For example:+
+$ host gmail.com+
+gmail.com has address 74.125.127.83+
+gmail.com has address 209.85.225.83+
+gmail.com has address 74.125.79.83+
+gmail.com mail is handled by 30 alt3.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.+
+gmail.com mail is handled by 5 gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.+
+gmail.com mail is handled by 10 alt1.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.+
+gmail.com mail is handled by 20 alt2.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.+
+gmail.com mail is handled by 40 alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.+
+$ host 74.125.127.83+
+83.127.125.74.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer pz-in-f83.1e100.net.+
+In this case, the result is "1e100.net" (ignoring subdomains), which is different than the domain we started with. Therefore, add both "gmail.com" and "1e100.net" to the white list.+
+Repeat these steps for each secure site that needs to be accessed in Parental Controls.+

I am using Mail 5.3 with two separate gmail addresses.
One is personal the other is business.
When I send emails from the BUSINESS address, any auto-replies/out of office notices I get come to my PERSONAL INBOX.
I imagine that this is a setting? Please help!Edit the SMTP server list. Add a new one for the business account. Put the correct password and information for it. Give it a description so you will know which server is which. Mke sure the correct server is highlighted in the account selected and check the box to use only that server for that account. Do that for the other account also.

Email sends on one but not the other laptop
I have both a MBP and a MB with the same work email address set up identically on both. Both have been used to send and receive email with no problem until last night. Suddenly I cannot send email on the MB.
Here's details:
I'm using my work email - for here let's call it "[email protected]". This email is set up with it's incoming server as mail.xyz.net and outgoing server as smtp.comcast.net. The selected port is 110.
So I can send and receive all the emails I like on my MBP using the above settings. The MBP is running Mail 5.1. One the MB, when I send any email using the exact same settings, preferences, everything - I get an error message saying the server - smtp.comcast.net has rejected the sender address of "[email protected]"
I checked the "Connection Doctor" in Mail 4.5 and it says "[email protected] is connected and logged in" to the server. But soon as I send an email, BAM, the address is rejected?
I talked with Comcast and they confirm their server is fine, IT IS NOT REJECTING my sender address "[email protected]" and they have no clue what's going on.
Nor do I and before I pay APPLE $50 for support I thought I'd try here.
Any ideas???
ThanksTry changing the port to 995. I have no idea why that works but it helped when I had the same problem.

Sometimes when i send an imessage to another iphone user it comes out as a txt message. I was just wandering why this happens and sometimes when it does the message is never sent to the person.
You can have a separate AppleID only for iMessage and keep using the other one for iTunes.
Just change the AppleID used for iMessage in Settings > Messages > Receive At -
Sending from one account shows up as another
I am sure that there is something very simple in the settings that I am missing. My primary email account is a verizon one and it is linked to my Mail on my iMac and MacBook. When I send an email from my iPhone's Verizon account, however, it is received as if it were sent from my gmail account and consequently replies go there. This is not a critical issue, but just bothersome because I use each account for a different purpose and I am ending up forwarding then from one account to the other.
How do I correct this? It's almost like I set something as a primary account, but I can't find out where that may be.
Thanks.
CaroleHey all,
I suspect I'm having a similar problem. For some reason my primary server "smtp.mac.com" won't send messages so the iphone uses my next preferred server "smtp.gmail.com" to send messages. The problem here is that the replies then go to my gmail account (which for me is picked up by my mac and not my iphone).
This is a big problem for me as I sent an important email today from my iphone and received no reply which (in the context) meant everything was fine. However, I only found out much later in the day whey I got to my computer that in fact everything was not fine and I almost had to cancel meetings to be somewhere the next day all because the apple stuff is just dropping the ball when it comes to actual functionality for business use....
Anyway, I'm trying to find a solution. If I do I'll post another response. So far I'm looking at ditching mobileme (which is what I currently use as a free trial) and just using gmail and gmail calendar instead. -
I have set up two email accounts on my iphone4, one with tiscali, my ISP, and the other on gmail. I am able to receive emails on both accounts, and can send emails from my gmail account, but am "Unable to Send Email" from my tiscali (talktalk) account. I get the error message "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. The sender address "name"@tiscali.co.uk was rejected by the server".

How to send a mail in workflow keeping 1 receiver in CC and the other in TO
Hi,
Can anybody tell me how to send a mail in workflow keeping 1 receiver in CC and the other in TO.
I need to send a mail to an employee keeping his/her manager in CC through workflow.
Regards,
LavanyaHi Lavanya,
I dont think its possible using Send mail step type.
But it can be done by using the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1. Just create a method and Call this FM accordingly.
Thanks,
Viji. -

I have 2 hotmail accounts in my Mac Mail, when I send from one account the reply comes back to the other hotmail account, how can I stop this?
You should be able to open both accounts.
I believe Hotmail T&C may expect you to have only one account, but possibly multiple alliases.
You may have problems opening two separate hotmail accounts at once in Firefox. Try using a new private browsing window for the second one. With any look that will separate them enough for you to use both at once.
(With other account holders permission.) I sometimes open my own and another persons hotmail account by that method.

My friend switched his phone number from an iPhone to a Blackberry. My phone still wants to use iMessage to send him a text and won't let me send it as a text unless I turn off iMessage on my phone. Is there a fix for this?

TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Click your old iPhone and "unregister" it.

I have been using Safari for years and have always kept it on "private." Starting two days ago, I suddenly found myself unable to log onto my blog and many other sites that I normally log onto when private is set. This so annoying, I just switched to Firefox. I don't like Firefox nearly as much as I like Safari. What is happening? How do I fix the problem?
Thank you.Might be a corrupted database ...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test. -
I just rebuilt my mail inbox, 1 iCloud account and 2 other imap accounts, and everything is gone. Nothing on the remote servers either and on all my iCloud sync mobiles. How can i recover all my emails? Thanks it's all my work!!!!!!!

We do NOT use the same ID for: Face time and Imessage -
I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks
Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple. -
I recently bought two iMac quad core i5 processor speed 2.5 Ghz. Every time I use Air Drop and I send a file from one iMac to the other, a black curtain drops and I am asked to restart the computer!!! What can I do?
That's a kernel panic and indicates some sort of problem either with the computer's hardware or software. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on diagnosing kernel panics. It would help to post the panic log: Mac OS X- How to log a kernel panic.
Meanwhile, try booting the computers into Safe Mode then restarting normally. If this is simply a disk repair or cache file problem then this may fix it.
You can also try creating a new admin account on each computer then booting into the new account. This would help determine if the problem is related to a bad file in the user accounts.
