  • For the past day or 2 mail sent from .Mac Mail is not being delivered.

    I have been using .Mac Mail and Apple Mail application on my computer for about 10 months. The past 2 days when I go to .Mac Mail online, compose an e-mail, click on send, get the message that says, "Your message has been sent." The e-mail is also in my Sent folder but the e-mail message is not delivered. I sent an e-mail this way to my Hotmail account, my Yahoo account and even to myself at my .Mac Mail account and none of them were delivered. I tried several times at different times and I just tried again now. Still no good. They never went to any of the inboxes even hours later. Is there something wrong with the outgoing .Mac Mail sever? Or what else can it be?

    You didn't say what troubleshooting you did after the firmware update and problem...
    To get started...
    Verify your drive with Disk Utility.
    Repair permissions with Disk Utility (probably not the issue, but won't hurt)
    Try:
    mailbfr -o
    mailbfr -f
    If you are still stuck, you'll need to post more detail about your configuration, hopefully more log detail and the contents of imapd.conf and the output of postconf -n

  • TS3276 Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail?

    Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail? 

    You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.  This person receiving my email,  while on a Mac with Safari is reading their mail through Safari using Horde--our recent discovery.  Why they chose to do that in unclear. The last email we sent, however, was miraculously read and received and  the attachment was viewed with no problem after we told them our mail was coming from a Mac thriugh Apple Mail.  It seems that telling them that our emails were coming from a Mac and using Apple Mail was enough to make them think that perhaps THEY were doing something not quite right. Thank you both, Level 7 and Level 5. 
    But thank you especially for the meteorologists in the UK for putting forth the correct routes for Sandy these last days, you probably saved a lot of lives.

  • See e-mails sent from Mac on iPhone?

    Hi, I have OSX 10.9.1 on my Macbook and ios 7 on my iPhone and I use iCloud. What can I do to make an e-mail sent from my Mac turn up on my iPhone when I search for it on the iPhone for instance by using the sent e-mail´s subject content?
    Kind regards

    The default setup on the phone does not synchronise the "sent" folder, so it wont appear on your webmail account.
    If you enable synchronisation for that folder, it will appear on your webmail account as a new folder called "sent items", So you end up with a "sent" and a "sent items" folder on your webmail account.
    You can enable folder sychronisation by the following sequence.
    Messaging - select account - press menu - select "folders (5)" - press menu - select "manage folder (2)".
    You will then be given the option whether to sync, or not sync a folder.
    Any folder that you sync, will appear on your webmail account next time you connect.
    This only works for the default IMAP setup.

  • Why won't attachments sent from Mac Mail show up for an Outlook Express recipient?

    I use Mac Mail on a MacBook Pro. When I attach image files to an email message, a recipient using Windows Outlook Express can't receive the attachments as attachments; they're just embedded in the message. What can I do to ensure that attachments go through as attachments?
    Thanks in advance.

    There's been a lot of discussion on this.  Some indicate that setting your email format to plain text will result in the photos being just attachments.  When I've tested it by sending to myself that's not been the case. 
    There's a 3rd party plugin for Mail that is supposed to do what you want.  I've not tested it so can't comment one way or another:
    One way to assure the image files travel as attachments is to put them in a folder first and add the folder to the email body. That zips/compresses the folder and sends it that way.

  • Auto display HTML attachments in body / email sent from mac mail

    Hi,
    One of my clients has received an email written in MAC Mail, the email doesn't display correctly instead what would be the body of the email appears as an html attachment, he doesn't want to have to click the attachment to preview it as he doesn't have to
    do this on the iphone (also an apple device hmm....), I cant see any way of making it auto display the html in the body without clicking it.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi,
    Can you confirm if the sender has this problem sending emails to other recipients?
    Please logon your Webmail(or OWA), does that message display as an attachment as well?
    If other Outlook recipients also see the email body as an attachment and you can verify it shows as an attachment on Web as well, I'm afraid we should blame the Apple Mail Client, since I've seen some Apple Mail users have this problem:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1947994?tstart=0
    Kindly have the sender check if the setting like Edit > Attachments > Send Windows friendly Attachments
    has been checked.
    If I'm not getting this wrong, we should confirm this issue with Apple:

    Feel free to post back of course.

  • Question marks in emails sent from mac mail client

    When I send emails the recipient receives my emails with question marks scattered throughout the message. Not sure why this is happening. I can not find anything on the help site about out going encoding issues, only inbound issues.
    thanks for your help

  • Mail disappearing from Mac Mail - iCloud

    There has been a fair few people with the same problem. I have reset my Apple Id password and this seems to have solved the problem.

    smart mailboxes are not actual mailboxes. they are saved searches. if something disappears from it it means that the original was deleted from whatever mailbox it was sitting in. For example, it could be that those messages were in trash and you have your trash emptied periodically.

  • HTML Mails from Safari using Mailing List from Excel sent by Mac Mail

    Hi.... Anybody got any ideas how I can use VCards or Excel as a database to send HTML mails from Mac Mail without having to add the names into my personal address book as I do not want client contacts in with my contacts... any ideas ? Thanks....

    This should not occur.
    As an experiment, I have some old saved received messages in a user created mailbox that were addressed to an old email account/address that was cancelled. When selecting Reply for any of these messages, my default Send New Mail from account is chosen as the sending email account/address.
    When doing the same for any messages located in a user created mailbox that were addressed to an existing valid email account/address that is not my default Sent New Mail from account selection, the account/email address the message was addressed to is the account chosen as the sending email account/address.
    I believe there is some minor corruption to your Mail.app preference file. Let me know if you need the instructions for targeting the preference file which will require re-entering all email account information.

  • When I send an email from Mac Mail, why does Mail go to the background and the Finder comes to the front? I want it to stay in Mail.

    When I send an email from Mac Mail, why does Mail go to the background and the Finder comes to the front? I want it to stay in Mail.

    Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name.  Make sure the settings there are correct.

  • Mail on Mac Pro not downloading mail sent from iPhone

    Hi.
    I have a gmail account set up on my Mac Pro and have just added the same account to my 3G iPhone. It all works fine except any mail I send from the iPhone doesn't appear on the Mac Pro. In Safari everything shows up on gmail. A copy of the mail sent from the iPhone even ends up in the sent mail folder, but nothing on the Mac Pro.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    I talked to our email provider and they say it has to do with the way thre recipients email address book has recorded the address. They say that they need to fix the address on their end.

  • Disguise outgoing "From" in Mail and/or .Mac mail

    Whether I'm emailing from the web or my computer, Mail won't allow me to mask my outgoing name. I want my clients to get emails from my personal account name [email protected] NOT the Mail account name: [email protected] No matter what I try, there's no covering up the mac.com. I'd even send all email with the apple logo at the bottom if I could make it come from keenbee.com.
    I use Entourage and GoDaddy (web email) and hate them! The only reason I use them is because I can send using the keenbee.com name. I want to use Mail and .Mac again for email but won't since it makes the company look a bit unprofessional, unestablished and confuses clients when they get an email from [email protected]
    To summarize: I won't want to use Mail if I can't change my outgoing name from mac.com to keenbee.com.
    I just want to mask my my email coming from mac Mail to reflect the keenbee.com name! Sorry for the redundancy, this has been difficult to explain.
    thank you for your time and help!

    This will help you do what you want your email to do.
    1. Make sure in entourage you have your mobile me account set up and it is working correctly by pushing mail.
    2. set up an account for your @keenbee.com account.
    3. make the @keenbee.com account you default account for sent emails which actually doesn't help.
    4. forward all of your @keenbee.com mail to your @me.com account. you will have to go to go daddy to do this if that is where your @keenbee.com settings are.
    5. make a rule under your tools menu in Entourage that all of your sent mail go's into your mobileme sent folder.
    6. make sure when you are sending your email you will have to pick from the two accounts you want it to be sent from. After you press new for a new email you will have a drop down menu to which you can choose which account you want it to be sent from. I can't figure out how to make the email you always want it to be sent from default. When ever you have one of the mobileme folders selected it always starts the email with the mobileme account even if you have your other email address pick as default account in settings.
    you can make a kinds of rules for your mail which i am sure you are aware of under the tools menu bar.
    the reason you are having your @keenbee.com mail forwarded to your mobileme email account is to that it turns it from a pop email to imap email.
    When you send out the email from your @keenbee.com account in Entourage it is sending it out in pop. But when you apply the rule to it it changes it to imap email. **make sure when setting up your rules you set them up with the imap setting. Also in the rules there is an outgoing tab. this is where you will setup sent mail rule that will put your sent mail into your mobileme sent folder.
    This works for me. All of my email accounts are forwarded to mobileme which I receive in Entourage and i send all of my emails from Entourage out to my clients. Everything is insync.
    Only problem is when you send emails from your iphone. Haven't found away yet to send them and make them show up from the email i want them to be coming from instead of the @me.com.

  • I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. Help!

    I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. I've been on the phone with yahoo mail and they've verified that my account settings are correct and I can send email from yahoo. I can receive emails via Mac mail, but just can't send them. An error message appears that says:
    "Sending the message content to the server failed." I can't send emails from my Mac desktop, iphone or ipad. Any suggestions! Help! I'm a Mac rookie and so frustrated! Thanks.

    Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look. 

  • Imap mail sent from my iphone does not show up in the sent folder on my desktop

    imap mail sent from my iphone or ipad does not show up in the sent folder on my desktop

    Hi Bob,
    I'm using Mac Mail 4.5
    I have set up my mail preferences to include a "From"
    Web mail includes the appropriate "from" header information.
    Interestingly, when I send emails from this account on other machines it's ok.
    (ipad2,iPhone 3s,powermac)
    It just seems to be the MacBook Pro that is presenting this error.
    As an aside, my ISP host recently upgraded from Pop to Imap.
