Mail - "To Do" from Sent Email folder - Is placed into "On My Mac"

I have an IMAP account set-up in Mail that was working just fine. I have a folder in the "Reminders Section" in the left pane window. In the "To do" section I have 2 folders created for each of my IMAP accounts in addition there is a folder that was created automatically "On My Mac".
When I create a To Do from a mail message that arrives into my inbox the To do shows in the appropriate folder created for that account.
The issue that just arise is if i create a To do from a sent mail for one account the To Do does not get placed in the appropriate folder it gets placed in the "On My Mac" Folder. Now this only happens to one of the accounts, the other account places the To Do in the correct folder.
How to I change the settings to have the new To Do created from sent folder be placed into the correct folder and not the "On My Mac" Folder.
In addition how do I delete the "On My Mac" Folder from the Reminders Section
thanks

It all depends on what kind of email account you have. IMAP accounts (e.g. Gmail) will sync folders across devices. Exchange accounts will as well. POP3 accounts (e.g. AOL, Comcast, Verizon) will not sync folders. What kind of email account do you have? Consult your email provider if you're not sure. If it's POP3, see if they have an IMAP option.

    I had the same problem after I gave my old iPad to my parents and tried to install Netflix. This is what you have to do:  Open iTunes on your computer, the one you sync your iPad to. Then go to iTunes Store and search for and download Netflix app. After you download it, if your iPad is set to download new purchases it may start downloading on your iPad. If so, tap and hold to delete the app (because it is trying to install the new version on the iPad) Next step, go to the App Store on your iPad and find Netflix and it should say install since you already purchased it on the computer. Tap to install, and it will say the version is not compatible, tap to download a previous version. Click that and it will install the older version!    One more thing, if and when you sync to your computer again it will say something like " Unable to install Netflix on your iPad" Just click the box to never remind you again, because it's trying to sync the newer Netflix app to your iPad, but it doesn't work so it displays the message. The old app will remain on the ipad. Hope this helps, good luck

  • E90 using Mail for Exchange - Sync sent emails pro...

    Hi
    I am trying to setup Mail for Exchange on a Nokia E90 and am currently trying it with the free mail2web service before deciding what is right for me
    I have gone through all settings and if I sync, it syncs the inbox fine with mail2web and tasks, calendars etc, but it will not sync the sent items folder from the PC to the E90. However, if I send a mail from the E90, it appears on the PC after a sync no problem
    Is this a simple setting thing or a limitation?
    Say for example, I want to send 20 emails from the PC, and then sync so I can have them on my phone, I do not seem to be able to do so??
    Please help with any suggestions

    Hello, all,
    We have the following problem:
    We do NOT want to exchange MAIL with MfE but still CONTACTS and CALENDAR.
    We realised the connection with the echange server, and can send e-mails.
    But the synchronisation of Contacts and Calendar did not succeed yet.
    Maybe we do have to uninstall the synchronisation with the OVI-suite ?
    Who has a suggestion?

  • IMac Mail strips sender from sent mail

    I'm helping a friend who has an unusual problem with Mail on their iMac (10.9.5).
    This first part may be a red herring. There are four email accounts on the machine iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, and one other linked to a domain name. For no apparent reason all four accounts suddenly stop working. If you take all accounts off-line and then back online again, sometimes three or four times, they will start working again. Similarly, if you restart the machine two or three times they will often start working again but stop after a couple of days. Both of these methods make no changes to any of the settings.
    However, that is not the problem I'm looking for an answer to. The iCloud, Gmail and Yahoo accounts all work exactly as expected. The fourth account sends email OK but when it arrives it says "no sender". A machine running Windows, an iPad and an iPhone all have that account on them and are all using the same outgoing server settings but they can all send email without stripping the sender's details. The sender details do appear on the email in the Sent box of the iMac but not on the receiving machine. However, if the receiver looks at the full headers of the email, the Reply To Address is there.
    I can only think of applying the 10.9.5 Combo Update or updating to 10.10. Any other suggestions?

    Update released by Apple today can help you remove attachments from sent mails.
    Open the sent mail: click on "MESSAGE", then go to REMOVE ATTACHMENTS.
    And that's all.

  • Attachments missing from sent emails

    We just started having a strange email issue today.  Emails sent using POP3 accounts have their attachments stripped out of the email.  If you look at the sent items folder the email has the attachments but the person on the receiving end gets
    an email with no attachment. It doesn't matter how big or small the attachment is, ho many attachments there are or what type of attachment they are.
    This is happening on outlook 2010 and 2013 clients (those are the only 2 versions we have).
    The operating system is Windows 7 pro SP1.  All updates have been applied.
    This is happening on all computers in the domain (SBS2011 server)
    The outlook clients have one profile with an exchange server account and one or more POP3 accounts.
    If I remove the exchange server account or create a new profile with only the pop3 account we do not have this issue.
    I have uninstalled all antivirus software on the computer
    I have created a new profile in outlook
    I have done a system restore to roll back to the OS state before windows updates were installed the night before we started having the issue.
    I have removed the signatures from outlook in case they were corrupted.
    I have uninstalled Exchange server 2010 Rollup version 7 which was installed the night before the issue started.
    I bypassed our local firewall
    I have started outlook in safe mode
    None of this solved the issue.  As stated above exchange rollup 7 was installed and some workstation updates were installed the night before this happened.  I figured that one of those 2 events caused the issue but uninstalling them did not help.
    I need some fresh brain power on this one. 
    Thanks in advance

    There are no attachments on the receiving end. 
    I enabled protocol logging on the outlook clients and there is no difference in the SMTP log between an email sent successfully and when the attachments get stripped.
    This is happening to all the workstations in the domain.  I have done online and offline (boot from CD and scan all local drives) virus scans and I am confident it is not a virus issue.
    I would love to get rid of POP3 but we still use it because our sales staff have to send email using several different domains and using pop3 allows them to reply to emails and have them sent back out the same account (domain) that they were received from. 
    The cause of the issue was either exchange rollup 7 or one of the workstation updates.  Both events happened the night before.  We have been running this configuration for years and those are the only events that changed in our environment.

  • View sent email folder

    Ihave the 8330 and have two email accounts (aol & comcast) and cannot view my sent messages. When I go to the "view folder" it only shows in box and spam. How do I add my sent messages folder? Thanks

    Welcome to the forums
    In your messages folder press menu, go to Options>General Options. Make sure "Hide Sent Messages" is set to "No". They should now show up in your messages folder.

  • How do I retrieve the BBC addresses from sent email in Mac OS X Mail

    I am using Mail 6.6 (1510) - Two weeks ago I sent a program update to a lot of people . I would like to send a new update this week. I located the previous update but do not see the BBC sent list in the raw source header.

    I don't quite understand what you've posted. Have you cancelled your Gmail account?
    If you've just connected Mail to Gmail, and you've used IMAP to connect to it, you'll probably have an "All Mail" mailbox towards the bottom left of the screen (under the GMail mailbox). In there should be a Sent Mail box. All your Sent mail should be in there. To have it appear in the Sent mailbox at the top left of your screen, highlight Gmail's Sent Mail mailbox, click the Mailbox menu at the very top of your screen, and click "Use this Mailbox for - Sent".

  • Can I recover My sent Email folder?

    I use Entourage as my email client. I had a power failure overnight and when I launched the computer this morning all email accounts were gone. I set up the accounts (ATT) and the inbox was reestablished, but there was nothing in the sent folder. AT&T of course is no help. I use Backblaze for backup. If the emails were/are on my computer I should be able to restore them, but I don't know where. I went into the Library and found a Mail folder, but there is no sent folder there. Any help would be appreciated.

    If you use Entourage, the database is in your Documents/Microsoft User Data/
    Look for Profiles or somthing like that. It is in there.
    Also realize that the Entourage mail store is a database, any corruption in the file at all could lose all of your email.

  • My sent email folder is full and I cna't compact them. I owul dlike to move them to another folder, start fresh, but be able to see that older folder

    My Thunderbird Sent folder is almost full (4 Gig) and I can't compact it any further. My Inbox folder is getting there as well so my question applies to both folders.
    I've backed up my Thunderbird data files onto another hard drive, so they should be safe.
    What I'd like to do is to move my current Sent folder emails to another folder that I can still access easily with Thunderbird. Then I'd create a have a new Sent folder (and eventually a new Inbox) that I can start filling up again with new stuff.
    The other thing would be to just increase the four gig limit for both the Sent and Inbox folders.
    Is there an easy way to do this?

    Compacting is deleting messages marked for deletion. It has nothing to do with trying to squeeze out just a little more space in an already full folder.
    Here are some good articles that you could probably benefit from reading.

    You could also create folders under Local Folders and move the older message there.

  • How to block Mail or Keychain from storing email password?

    I would prefer to enter my email password myself when logging intoy IMAP accounts in Mail. Is there a way to block the Keychain or Mail from saving the passwords and instead prompting me to enter them?
    I occasionally get tech help on my Macbook. While I'm fine with sharing some of my passwords with my tech, I'd rather he not have unlimited access to my email. Help???

    Neither iSync nor .Mac Sync will perform this function. Instead, you want to use a program like ChronoSync from Econ Technologies:
