Mail OS Snow Leopard: Double entry of email-address in column "sender"
I just downloaded my mails from my google imap-account.
In the column "sender" certain mails appear with a double entry in the following way:
<[email protected]> <[email protected]>
This behavior occurs for certain mails, independent if the senders are in the address book.
Surprisingly, if you open the mail you find only one entry in the header. For those senders listed in the address book the name is listed correctly.
Please let me know if you have an idea how to make the program only show the sender once.
I hope that one of you can help me with this problem, thanks.
Hi,

I have a problem with Mail in Snow Leopard in that I cannot set up two email accounts for myself and my wife with the same ISP and have them operate properly. I've set up the accounts in strict accordance with my ISP's instructions for setting up email accounts on Mac Mail but I cannot send an email from my account to my wife's without a drop-down message appearing that Mail 'cannot send the email from this server. Please edit the server list'. No amount of tweaking appears to work. Applecare consultants have so far been unable to get it to work and a recent visit to the local Genius Bar in the Apple Store was fruitless also. My ISP's help line was unable to solve the problem even with a supervisor level consultant. The ISP concluded it was some kind of 'bug' in Mail.
I could send emails from my wife's account to mine, but not vice versa; I could send emails to other addresees without any problem and I can send emails from my account to my wife's using the ISP's webmail.
Does anyone please have a solution to my problem? At the moment we're operating one account (mine) on my Macbook and my wife's is set up on her iPad2. As we prefer to use the Macbook for storage and (using Time Machine) for back-up of our data, the two accounts on separate machines is a nuisance.
Another factor is that I prefer to control when I download emails and set my preferences accordingly. One of the so-called 'fixes' that were tried wound up downloading emails regardless of settings, even after removing my wife's account; the matter was remedied only after I had removed all accounts form Mail and started afresh from scratch.You'll have to pardon my ignorance of some computer terminology; I'm a retired manager and not a computer technician, hence my muddling up of client and server terminology.
Re your comment about Port 339: I did qualify this with (?). As I wrote, it all happened at lightining speed and the guy at the Genius Bar didn't bother explaining what he was doing. Port designation contained 3s and 9s to the best of my recollection.
That said, you seem to be spot on re setting up a 'dummy' client in Mail. I set it up as you suggested and I can send to and receive from this client without a problem. You appear to have identified the solution, notwithstanding the claims of the ISP's 'experts'.
The next problem I have now is sorting out my wife's mailbox that is so troublesome whenever I set it up on Mail.
All the other set-up advice to date yielded a similar result; inability to send from my account to her inbox. Perhaps deleting her details from the account altogether and setting them up again from scratch may be the solution and I shall try that in due course. The impediment that I have with this at the moment is that my ISP admits that it has 'a technical problem with its email servers' and some of its related web pages that prevent my doing this myself. I will have to go through the telephone 'help' line and ask the technician to set it up at their end on my instructions. This has some disadvantages in that I have to divulge the password to the account to the operator rather than keeping it anonymous by doing it on-line. You may have solved the problem, but until I can successfully sort out a working mailbox for my wife i cannot definitively say so.
Many thanks for your perseverance. You've made more sense than anyone else so far and that deserves some points, surely? -
Apple Mail on Snow Leopard 1.6.8
I'm aware this subject isn't new but still I find no solutions ....
Hence, very many thanks to anyone who will help me to solve this substantial problem
Since the unfortunate invention of Icloud my Apple Mail on Snow Leopard 1.6.8 no longer work properly.
My machine:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro4,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 3,32 GHz
RAM 16 GB (Apple Original)
Mail should take care of my me.com accounts, but I also have other accounts located elsewhere with a different suffix (.it, co.uk)
I tried to set up Snow Leopard Mail following every single help tread here and at other websites. None of which seems to work properly, and the variety of "helps" simply tells me there is no "sound" system to use Snow Leopard with the current Apple Email set-up.
Yet "randomly" Mail will stop loading my "me.com" mail opening an error message telling me the "me.com" certificate is no longer trustable.ù
I instructed Apple Mail to "trust" the certificate, but this option does not work, or at least only works randomly.
Mails also never recognizes and loads messages from my other suffix adresses. It enters in an endless connection asking to verify either my User or pass, to finally put these accounts offline. Using Safari with my user and pass (the same as in Apple Mail) everythings works well.
More: if I am working on something else (Long Photoshop Actions, Final Cut Pro rendering and more), this window message halts everything.
This problem is serious, as I usually performed this work at night. or when I don't need to stare at a screen doing nothing.
I erased my computer with the 32 zero pass options and reinstalled the original Snow Leo system (MAC OS X 10.6.2) and this problem vanishes.
As soon as I update with the Combo Upgrade the problem begins again.
My upgrades are always "fresh updates" both as a direct update from the apple menu/Software update, or downloading the combo as dmg to then install.
The result is exactly the same.
I received a fresh copy from the local Apple Store in case my original had some magical problems, but nothing changed.
Yet I can't simply use SL 10.6.2 (the original software I got with the Machine) as many programs I paid for require the latest Snow Leopard.
While I could use another drive with SL 10.6.2, just for the Mail, is really a problem to reboot, to reboot again to continue my work.
In my heart I certainly believe email these days is a "public service" especially after paying thousand dollars over the years, and Apple policy to force user to purchase their latest machines and or, waste time to reconstruct their previous work to adpat it to their industrial policy is simply not fair.
While I understand and support advances in technology and so on, I believe this going forward shouldn't be done at the expenses of the customers, but "freedom of choice" is parts of all constitution as introduced centuries ago in the US.
I read in various site Apple was planning a Snow Leopard 10.6.9 version, but so far nothing happened. Maybe this project was dismissed.
Loosing important emails is a superior problem for my work.
I "have" to use Snow Leopard because I need the Rosetta function Apple discontinued in Lion and Mountain Lion.
Some readers might dislike this post, yet I used Apple since Apple II, I bought at least 100 machines since, I went through the various software/hardware changes, with ease. I believe my current anger is legitimate.
Can someone please help?you can save a little time - since Mail is one of the Optional Install items found by running the same-named installer within the folder on the DVD. you'll still need the 10.6.7 combo afterwards.

Mail in Snow Leopard (starting from scratch, fresh install, POP gone?)
Where is a good manual/FAQ/Help file that explains how to setup POP gmail accounts in the new Mail in 10.6??
Did a fresh install on a new machine, and can't for the life of me figure out how to set it up (keeps selecting IMAP by default, no matter what I do, then when I setup a POP account it just sits there).
How come it worked in 10.3, 10.4, and in 10.5 then in 10.6 it just acts all goofy and won't connect? Is this the definition of 'snappier'? I think so, because I'm about to.
Thanks.Like you I did a fresh install and when setting up my gmail accounts found the only available option of setup to be IMAP. I found the fix to this ANNOYING ISSUE.
Basically the auto-setup assistant that automatically starts in Mail w/ snow leopard looks to see if you enter "gmail.com" as your selected service and AUTOMATICALLY configures it to use IMAP instead of POP.
Now I have tried going in and disabling IMAP and entering all the correct POP settings after the wizard completes setup but I could never get a functioning connection.
The solution is to click the + sign to add an account but instead of butting "@gmail.com" change your address to "@yahoo.com". Type in the correct password and click continue. It will attempt to check the connection but will fail, click continue anyway.
From here you will have to change the POP settings from the defaults for yahoo to those of gmail. Remember those are pop.gmail.com; username is your ENTIRE email address. Ensure everything is right and click continue.
Again change the SMTP setting from those of yahoo to those of gmail's. Remember smtp.gmail.com!
Click continue and finish the setup. Once the account is setup you will have to change your address from @yahoo.com to @gmail.com and you are finished. Your account should connect and work just like it always did.

Address Book/Mail in Snow Leopard Problem?
Prior to upgrading to Snow Leopard, I was able to address an email to an entire group by clicking on the address book icon in the new mail screen, clicking on the group, and clicking "To".
This no longer works for me. I now have to drag the group icon into the "To" field to have the email addressed to everyone in the group. If I do this the way I used to, only the first address goes into the "To" field.
Anyone else with this problem?I finally run a search for "address book" within my Home's Library folder and deleted everything related to Address Book. Emptied the trash can, restarted the computer, and it is now working fine.
Obviously, backup (if you can) all your data before attempting this, but in my case, lost for lost, I was all in, and it worked. -
I have been using Tiger's Mail program as my main mail application. Now I need to get my mail on my Macbook Pro.
Problem is: Mail in Tiger has an option under "Edit", of "Paste as HTML". This works beautifully.
In Snow Leopard this option has been removed, and although "Paste" does sort of work (with adding attachments for images), I get my quoted message mangled in replies from recipients of my html mails.
Question: Can I instal and use Tiger Mail on Snow Leopard, and how should I go about it?You had me very excited for a moment there, Tom, when I saw how elegantly Safari does this, but...
I do my html in Pagespinner, then preview in Safari. Safari > File > Mail Contents of this Page, does not deliver my images. (I suppose I could link to image files on a web server...)
On the other hand, in Tiger, I select all, and copy in Safari, then Edit > Paste as html, in Mail. And my friends receive a perfect html email, with images and formatting.
I just got my little G4 iBook back, and Tiger with it, so once again, I can do my thing , but I would dearly love a similarly elegant solution in Snow Leopard. -

is there a new mail that you must have to run mail on snow leopard?
Right, I forgot, how silly of me. Once you set up an email account on a machine it's set up forever. Even after a fresh install on a new machine. What was I thinking.

Hotmail Alias in mail app: Refuses to use the selected email address
Hello,
Before today I could send emails using my alias account from the iPad mail app, using my hotmail email addresses. However, from today, I select the email address I wish to use (As normal) but instead of sending it from the chosen email address, it instead sends it from my standard email address.
Thanks for your time.
Oh, and I have not changed any settings, at all.Hello hbm2679,
I have many aliases email address, but mainly use one. I don't not send emails using my main account email address.
The way I changed it to only use the one (Alias) account was, when logged in to my hotmail account, over on the right (Next to your name), there is a gear.
Click the gear, and click "More Mail Settings".
Next, under "Managing your account", click "your email accounts".
Scroll to the bottom, and look for 'Default "From" address, and select the account/email address you want to use.
This is the only work around, I can think of at the moment. I think Apple need add more support for alias accounts.
Hope this helps,
Have Fun,

How do I prevent Mail from opening when I click an email address in Safari?
My wife and I both use Yahoo! Mail. Neither of us uses the Mail app to manage our email. How do I prevent Mail from opening when we click an email address in Safari? Is it possible to direct Safari to open a separate web browser prompting us to log in to our Yahoo! Mail?
Hmm.. probably not.
You want to open Mail. Then go into Preferences > General and you will see something similar to this:
In the area marked Default Mail reader click on the pull down and at the bottom of the list it will say Other. You can see if you can select Safari here and if that will open up Safari.
Good luck. -
Mail doesn't recognize email address I'm sending to
I'm trying to send an email to a group in my address book but whenever I try to send it I get the error message:
"The server “smtp.mac.com” did not recognize the following recipients:" and then lists most of the email addresses I'm sending to.
I don't think I could have that many of the email addresses wrong, so I have no idea what's wrong. Does anyone have any advice?{quote}
I've got the same problem. Is there a way to turn this off?
Unfortunately, the ISP's have been catching so much flak for spewing spam that they have resorted to methods to protect their reputations regardless of how you want to work.
The most obvious spam in the world is a message with a large number of recipients.
PC users can not be trusted by their ISP's because their machines are infested so often with programs designed to spread spam.
If an ISP is accused of sending too much Spam they run the risk of getting dumped to the "Black Hole" by other ISP's and that damages the ISP's ability to do business. Hence the reason for the ISP's to get involved. They never cared much before now, until it started affecting their business.
So, because of the trash and bull that's been going on with the Trojan Programs on Windows machines for the last 4 years, I don't think you can do much, except to try other mail servers that may not interfere with your messages. If you get your own domain on a host, you own the mail server. Maybe that's an answer... -
When I send or receive an email on Mail for Mac, the computer stores the email address of either the sender or recipient.
The next time I send an email it fills in the name after typing a few letters.
Is there any way to get a complete list of the email addresses that are stored in this fashion.
LJCollingwoodGo to Mail > top menu bar > Window and select 'Previous recipients'.

I have an apple id but the email address that they send a reply to is one I no longer use. How do I change this in my profile? It does not show up as an add'l email address to delete
"The reply" as in the Rescue email to reset your Security Questions? If so, then you will have to contact iTunes Support directly to get them reset:
