Mail thru Google Apps

alright....gmail/google apps and mail have tried, time and time again to get connected, and cannot seem to get it. I didn't search the forum (which i should have), but does anyone have any knowledge of a problem between Mail and g-mail/g-apps? Even though I check my mail thru google apps dashboard at gmail.com, my email address is [email protected] The john doe is of course false, but our site isnt...SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

I have a similiar problem, maybe somebody can help.
I use Google Apps (Professional) as well and I now bought a MacBookPro, want to use Imail and my emails up on the Google server.
I inserted all the data, they do speak but all the folders that the Mac downloaded are empty, I can not see the emails, etc.
Only in "all mail" are all the emails but not in the individual folders.
Is there a fix? Maybe some kind of google sync? Different software? I am willing to get something different if that is what it needs!
Thanks, your help is appreciated!

I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.
I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:

Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
Tools console.
Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario. With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc. Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

Apple Mail and Google Apps (personal domain) - 554 554 Denied Mail Delivery Subsystem (Intermittent Failure)

Hello,
I am having problems with my Apple Mail and Google Apps and I don't know what to do. I have been using apple mail with google apps for a few months now with no complications. In the last week I have recieved a handful of messages from the Mail Delivery Subsystem citing error "554 554 Denied". I know that the emails I have tried to send to are real emails and are entered correctly. I tried to send directly from google apps to one of these people today and it worked so I assume the problem is with Apple Mail, or is intermittent. Adding to my frustration is that it works with some people and not with others so it's hard for me to see exactly what is causing the problem.
Any ideas?
I'll include a copy of one of the Mail Delivery Subsystem emails I recieved - excluding the email address and message body.
Thanks for your help!

For mail issue, I had the same problem. My mail password was different than my itunes password and when I changed mail to itunes password, it started working again. Not sure about the google apps issue.
hope this helps a bit.

Configuring Server DNS for Mail on Google Apps

I'm trying to configure the DNS on my Snow Leopard Server for mail.mydomain.com to point to Google for Google Apps mail hosting.
I thought I could go into mydomain.com and put an alias record to point to ghs.google.com, but that's no longer working. Any ideas of how to get around this? Is there something else I'm doing wrong?

I figured out the problem. It had to do with an alias record hanging up the DNS.

Unable to move email or view some email in Mail w/ Google Apps

Using Apple's Mail application to access my Google Apps accounts via IMAP.
I'm having two problems:
1. I cannot view any email messages in any subfolder of my account when working within Mail. Everything shows fine when I log in directly through Google Apps/Gmail. Note that the "Rebuild" option under my Mailbox menu is disabled for whatever reason, so I can't try rebuilding Mail's index/database.
2. I am no longer able to move messages from my inbox to any of my subfolders. It's been this way for a couple days now.
Specifically, I get the following error...
The IMAP command “UID COPY” (to INBOX/1 - Scheduling) failed for the mailbox “INBOX” with server error: No folder INBOX/1 - Scheduling (Failure).
...which comes up when I try to move a message from the Inbox to the subfolder "1 - Scheduling".
Any thoughts or suggestions? Both of these things worked for a couple days after I first set this up last week.
So far, I'm too happy with my migration to Google Apps
Frustrated,
Dan

For anyone who's curious, I was able to fix the problem by converting my old folder structure into single-layer labels. I guess Google still chokes on mail that is stored in multiple nested/hierarchical labels because it works fine now.
So NOT a good "solution", but at least it works in all email clients now.

Script that shows new mails from Google Apps account in conky

Hello guys,
I'm looking for a script that outputs the number of new mails I received from my Mail Account with Google Apps.
I've already found a script that works pretty well with the normal Gmail but not obviously not with Google Apps.
import os
import string
#Enter your username and password below within double quotes
# eg. username="username" and password="password"
username="username"
password="********"
com="wget -O - https://"+username+":"+password+"@mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom --no-check-certificate"
temp=os.popen(com)
msg=temp.read()
index=string.find(msg,"<fullcount>")
index2=string.find(msg,"</fullcount>")
fc=int(msg[index+11:index2])
if fc==0:
print "0 new"
else:
print str(fc)+" new"
My idea was to replace mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom with mail.google.com/a/domain.tld/feed/atom but I always get connection errors like this.
Connection to mail.google.com|209.85.135.16|:443... connected.
HTTP request sent, wait for answer... 401 Unauthorized
Connection to mail.google.com|209.85.135.16|:443... connected.
HTTP request sent, wait for answer... 401 Unauthorized
Authorisation failed.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/orschiro/.scripts/mail.py", line 15, in <module>
fc=int(msg[index+11:index2])
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''
Any suggestion what I could try?
Thank you in advance.

Here is part of a script that I am using with my Google Apps domain. Should be easy to follow. Just edit the three variables at the top of the script. I prompt for the password at boot so it is not hard coded in the script. I use x11-ssh-askpass for this.
MAIL_URL = ['https://', 'mail.google.com', '/a/domain.com/feed/atom']
USERNAME = "[email protected]"
PASSWD = "password"
def initMail():
passman = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
passman.add_password(None, MAIL_URL[1], USERNAME, PASSWD)
authhandler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(passman)
opener = urllib2.build_opener(authhandler)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
def checkMail():
logging.debug("checkMail()")
try:
f = urllib2.urlopen("".join(MAIL_URL))
doc = xml.dom.minidom.parseString(f.read())
c = doc.getElementsByTagName("fullcount")[0].firstChild.data
return dzenH1("Mail: ") + c
except urllib2.URLError as e:
return dzenH1("Mail: ") + "URLError"

Need help with Apple Mail POP Google App Settings

I am using Google Apps Account for the domain name xyz.travel
I have set-up POP Account on Apple Mail for my Email address [email protected] with the Google Mail settings of POP and SMTP correctly. No Problem.
However, in my Email Address [email protected] there are 3000+ Emails which is more than 3 years old. I do not want all these Emails to be uploaded on my Apple Mailbox. It will take ages for all these 3000+ Emails to be uploaded in my Apple Mailbox. I only want to be able to send Emails from the Apple Mailbox and receive the Emails that I received on [email protected] henceforth.
Can someone please help me ?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Using Mac Mail with Google Apps email reply to all deleted internal recipents

When I have received a message from an external user with internal company recipients as CC, upon clicking Reply to all, it deletes all internal recipients. Every time, on Maintain Lion and Snow Leopard.
I have tried looking through Google results and community pages. I find nothing on the issue. It's 3 separate computers all doing it. 2 are Snow Leopard and 1 is Mountain Lion.

In Mail's sidebar there will be a subsidiary set of folders (located below the main Inbox/Sent folders). Click the down arrow to expand it, look for an inbox in there, if it exists and if it contains the mail do this. Select it, go to the Mailbox menu and choose 'Use This Malobox For' and choose Inbox.

Pop mail on iphone deletes the mail on the server (google apps)

Hi,
I have some .com mail accounts on google apps. And I also have one .com account on another company host.
When i recieve mail on my Iphone 3G the mail get's deleted on all the google apps. But not from the other company host.
And when I go home and check my email, the mails from google apps is not on my applemail, but the one from "another company" is. And the mails should be there, in apple mail, so I can reply and save it.
If my computer at home has downloaded the mail, I cannot get it on the iphone.
The settings should be right on the iphone. Never delete from server. And the google account pop is set to keep alle messages.
Anyone?

EDIT: That should of course read: There is not a single good reason why POP is better than IMAP. IMAP is definitely better in every way!

How do I sync Googles Apps in Mail 5.3 (re-post)

There's a post here about setting up Google Apps email through MS Exchange on Mail.app 5.2, but this doesn't work for me in 5.3.
The email I've been using for well over a decade is from a former dial-up ISP (Worldshare.net) and I am paying $10/year to keep the address. They've since moved mail to Google Apps.
I'm looking to close that account, but I'd like to save some of the messages, preferably in Mail.app format. I'm looking at no more than 200 messages and, if I could only get those into Mail.app, I can preserve them in a folder "On my Mac."
I opened a standard gmail account, hoping to Import these Google Apps messages, from which they could be accessed in Mail 5.3, but gmail won't accept the Worldshare IMAP credentials. I've enabled POP on both accounts, but still no luck.
Any thoughts on how I might get this done?
Thanks.
PS: I am also unable to set up this Worldshare Google Apps mail account on iOS6.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

I just reposted in the 10.7 Lion area.

Setup for dual delivery with Google Apps

Hi,
I am trying to get SLS to funnel all outbound email through Google Apps Premium. The idea is to have Google Apps as a backup for my users (small company) in case I loose my internet connection or the server goes down.
Incoming email gets delivered to both my server and Google Apps. I can send email from both as well and it gets delivered. It looks like Google is correctly forwarding email to my SLS.
What I need is to have my server send outbound email through the Google Apps servers so that 'sent mail' in Google Apps matches my server's.
I tried to set this up in 10.6 server, by setting up the relay option to smtp.gmail.com in mail admin. I get an error message about STARTTLS. Is there a way to get Mail to connect with the google smtp servers via the required secure connection and port 587? Also, how do I set this up without all my email getting flagged as spam.
Thanks,

Hi,
Not quite the same situation but when I was testing the google apps migrator tool on my 10.5.8 server, I had similar issues getting it to connect over TLS/SSL. The google server didn't support cram-md5 login apparently which I believe is the default on most OS X servers. I had to enable either login or plan+clear (I can't recall the exact one that fixed it but I'm pretty sure it was the combo of plain+clear).
In doing this, make sure you're using SSL (I had issues getting google to use TLS, google lets you specify TLS or SSL) obviously since the password would otherwise be cleartext in doing the above as opposed to cram-md5 which at least has some level of encryption associated with it. SMTP has the same login options as IMAP so you very well could be experiencing the same issue.
Not sure this will help you since I understand your situation is different but just a heads up.

Mac Mail, Groups & Google Aps

Trying to send a group email through mac mail, using google apps account. the group has 41 members. i keep getting "cannot send messages using this server" error, which does not come up when sending to individual addresses. Thoughts?

In Mail's sidebar there will be a subsidiary set of folders (located below the main Inbox/Sent folders). Click the down arrow to expand it, look for an inbox in there, if it exists and if it contains the mail do this. Select it, go to the Mailbox menu and choose 'Use This Malobox For' and choose Inbox.

Mail.app Stopped Working with Google Apps Account

I have accessed my Google Apps e-mail account via Mail.app for many months with no problems. Then all of a sudden yesterday it has stopped working. I can't download new messages no matter what I do, and it does not give me any errors such as wrong username/password. I have tried sending a few test e-mails out and they get sent even though Mail.app shows the message as still being sent endlessly (the blue progress bar goes to about 50% and then just sits there, however the recipient receives the e-mail). Has anyone experienced this problem? It may be a complete coincidence, but I also just upgraded my version of Aperture 2 to Aperture 3 and it has been having all sorts of problems (which others are experiencing as well). Any help is greatly appreciated.

After some searching I have found a solution. I had to delete the contents of the following folder:
~/Library/Mail/myemailaccount/.OfflineCache/
Note: replace "myemailaccount" with the appropriate folder on your computer that represents your e-mail account. Once I deleted the contents of this folder (there were 2 files), and restarted Mail, there were no problems.
Hope this helps a few people in the future!

After installing Mavericks on my iMac, Apple Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. Now Mail crashes every time I open it. What's up?

After installing Mavericks on an imac, Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. After I clicked on All Mail the program crashed and now it crashes every time I open Mail. Does anyone have an suggestions?

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
