Mail to groups

Help,
This question went unanswered previously---Is it possible to send email to a group that appears in my Touch contact list?
Thanks

There are many, but almost all require you to use a special program to email from.
Only "Mailshot" creates group contacts instead, then if you choose one of them from your addressbook in pretty much any app it sends email to the whole group (of up to 50 people, if you get the upgrade) INCLUDING any attachments the app creates.
Try it free on http://www.itunes.com/apps/mailshot.

Has anyone found a solution to sending mail to groups in Mavericks? I've been given 2 approaches - 1 to type user name group into address and the other to go to address book and right click on group. Neither are satisfactory. Does anyone have a solution?

Mail Smart Groups

My mail smart groups are too large for server - How do I make smart groups smaller e.g. A-F, G-L, M-S T-Z? Any help appreciated

Just edit the groups and set the criteria such that it only gets those items you want in the group.
You would likely need to create a criteria entry for each letter to include.
Although I don't know of any personally, you may want to get some third-party software that does mass mailings, or subscribe to a mass mailing service.

Mail wrongly groups messages in conversation

Hi,
After intalling Yosemite I encoutner a problem with Mail app grouping different messages into conversation.
The problem is that messages are not connected. Sender and recipients are different, mail content is not related.
I've tried rebuilding mailbox, but didn't help.
And on my iPhone it actually works correctly.

I solved my own problem! Go to Mail-> Perferences...-> Viewing and deselect "Include related messages"

Creating mail enabled groups

Hello,
Is there any way to create e-mail enabled groups using the GroupWise admin
object API or do I have to use some other API?
Our client does not use distribution list but regular groups and selects a
post office in ConsoleOne.
DirXml is not an option.
Cheers

Hello,
I read information about the IDM driver for GW and it is stated that it uses
GW Admin API. If the IDM driver can create a DL by using the GW Admin API,
then we should be able to do the same. I have read part of documentation
from the GW Admin API and found something that might be related to DL
creation. I have pasted below some information. It is taken from document
gwadmenu.pdf from the GW Admin API page 18. Can this be used to create a DL
programatically?
Thanks,
Ionut Marin.

Multiple copies of mailing list groups in Groupwise

We are running GroupWise 7.0.3 HP 4 client. We have a user who had 4 copies of her mailing list groups in Groupwise. We had her clean up address books, deleteing all but the last entry worked for cleaning. However, when she tries to copy that address bokk out so she can organize better, it makes two copies again.

How is she trying to "copy" that address book? And where exactly is it
making two copies?

TS3899 My iPhone & iPad mail is locked - Press mail app, the screen starts mail, freezes and bounces back to main menu. The fault occurred whilst opening a draft email created in the 'Mail 2 Group' app. Hard reset/reset all/restore backup have no effect -

I installed the Mail 2 Group App on my iPAD, created an email which I saved to the 'Draft' folder, with something over 300 of my contacts in the bcc. On returning to this email, again in my iPad, the screen locked in mail for a few seconds and bounced bak to the main menu. This repeated on my iPhone, on which I have been carrying out my own checks - this includes deleting the Yahoo account, hard reset (red cross and two buttons), restoring a backup and Reset All in settings.
I'm stuck !!

Sending a message with that many addressees may have required more RAM than was available. You can clean up RAM as follows:
Double-press the HOME button
Kill each app by flicking its screen image up
When all apps except the Home screen are closed press HOME
Wait about 2 minutes for the shutdowns to finish
Turn the phone off (hold the SLEEP button until "slide to power off" appears, and do so)
Wait another minute
Turn the phone back on by holding the SLEEP button until an Apple logo appears
Now try to send the mail again. Note that you may have an unrelated problem if this works: Many ISPs (Yahoo included) limit the number of email recipients for a single message as a way to combat spam.

Difficulty sending e-mail to group

Attempting to send E-mail to group of approximately 12 people. Get two error messages as to why the message can't be sent: "(1) Message not sent sent SCC1203 and (2) message not sent SCC1204 followed by the name of one of the people I was attempting to send the E-mail to. In the second case I determined that I must have the incorrect E-mail address. Is there an easy way to correct the error so I can get this accomplised? Thank you foryour help.

Both error codes means there is something wrong with the email address you are sending to. Check the email addresses and look for a typo too. While it could be a wrong email address, sometimes it is something as simple as an extra period, double letter,etc.

Built in Approval workflow can't send to AD univeral security mail enabled group (email recipient not valid)

Background: SP2010 SP2 with March 2015 CU installed. Using the built-in Approval - SharePoint 2010 workflow on a library. The Approval workflow does send email to individual users when users are specified in the Approvers field instead of a group. We
need to use a group. The workflow reports the error email recipients are not valid. I don't see anything in ULS logs. The Exchange server tracking logs do not show the emails to the AD group being processed (no evidence they are even received into Exchange,
but all other mail from SharePoint goes through, including the workflow's email to the workflow initiator). I can send email to the AD group from Outlook and all group members get it.
To send Approval workflow email to a mail enabled AD Universal Security group, what
exactly are the requirements?
Q1. Does the SharePoint\system account (aka web app pool account) *absolutely* need to have a mailbox?
If so, I need some clarification. I saw
http://www.spdev.info/2012/11/using-security-groups-with-workflows.html which was offered as a solution in another post. It says "To allow SharePoint to email the mail enabled security group you need to either create a mailbox for the SharePoint service
account, or attach the email address provided in the Outbound Email Settings as an additional email alias for a mailbox." Then it says you need to do *both* - create a mailbox for service account *and* add the outbound email settings address as an alias
in the *service account's* mailbox settings. Well, we can't do the latter. We are using a dedicated AD account with a mailbox for SharePoint mail settings purposes, and no two mailboxes can have the same alias.
I tried adding the AD account specified in the Reply From: outbound email settings (Reply To: is set to a distribution list) to the AD group's "Message Delivery Restrictions" and UNchecking Require that all senders are authenticated (even
though the AD account does authenticate). I tried allowing All Senders and UNchecking Require authentication (though that leaves email address open to spammers), but neither worked.
Q2. Does the AD mail enabled group need to be synchronized via User Profile Sync?
We currently only sync users. I do see the AD groups (we use AD groups into SharePoint groups security model) in SharePoint's People and Groups, and the mail address for the mail enabled group is *not* present in the properties. Is it a requirement to sync
the AD groups so that the email address shows in the AD group's properties in SharePoint?
The AD group is in a SharePoint group with Approve permissions. The individual AD group members are also in another AD group in a SharePoint group with Contribute permissions. I even placed myself in the AD group to test whether permissions issues; I am
farm admin. All SharePoint groups are set to allow Everyone to read the group's members.
This is driving me crazy.
Thanks,
Joan

Hello Victoria,
Thank you. I have an update. I got the workflow working. Turned out to be two separate unrelated issues:
(1) invalid email address for recipient was because the email address of AD group was not present in SharePoint's properties for group. Also why nothing appeared in Exchange Server tracking logs; the email was never sent from SharePoint. Once this was remedied
(explained below), the Task Assigned email was sent out to the AD group.
(2) the Task Assigned email was rejected by Exchange for reason 550 5.7.1 RESOLVER.RST.AuthRequired. The Exchange tracking logs clearly showed this. Setting the AD group's properties Mail Flow Settings, Message Delivery Restrictions to "Only senders
in the following list: <the domain account of the email address specified in SharePoint outgoing email Reply From setting>" and UNchecking "Require that all senders are authenticated" allowed the Task Assigned email to go through.
Answer to Q1: It is not required for System account (aka web app pool account) to have a mailbox when the SharePoint outgoing mail settings Reply From email address is of a domain account of the domain SharePoint is in. That is our scenario, as I noted we
use a domain service account dedicated for SharePoint mail. I can't speak to other scenarios. The Reply To: does not have to be the same email address; we use a distribution list. And, ever paranoid about spamming because of unchecking require autenticated
senders, I verified that my own account could not send email to the group (Outlook provides message "You do not have permission to send to: <GroupName>").
Answer to Q2: I did not have to sync groups via User Profile Service. What I did do, however, was remove the AD group from SharePoint, People and Groups, Groups list, and readd it. (Note: what I *literally* did was was remove the SharePoint group from all
permissions, remove the AD group from the SharePoint group, then remove the AD group from the Groups list, readd the AD group into the SharePoint group, and reassign permissions to the SharePoint group - Read to top-level site, Read to subsite (has unique
permissions), and Read, Approve to the subsite library with the workflow. In order to start clean. When I readded the AD group to the SharePoint group, it came in with an email address; email address now shows in the group's SharePoint properties. I noticed
that the format was GroupName instead of Domain\GroupName. (I had originally created the AD group as a Global Security group, added it to a SharePoint group, *then* (after I found out about that requirement when first troubleshooting workflow) converted it
to Universal and mail enabled it.
I suppose, would syncing groups would fix this issue of SharePoint not updating AD group changes?
Additional note: I first gave the AD group Read to the library directly instead of giving Read to the SharePoint group, tried the workflow, and the email was sent. I then removed the AD group's direct permissions to the library and added the SharePoint group
to the library and that also worked. So I was able to use the AD group in SharePoint group (I had read in one post that would not work).
Thanks,
Joan

Mail - Mavericks - Groups

Very difficult/slow to send mail to Groups since upgrading to Mavericks 9.1
Multiple Discussions about this in these Discussion Groups - obviously affecting a large number of users - but no definitive solution that allows the ease of use seen with Mountain Lion --> Drag the Group Name from Addresses/Contacts into the To/CC/BCC fields & it worked --> it no longer does under Mavericks.
And suggested workarounds are slow/clumsy/Windows-like to say the least.
Does anyone have a sense that Apple is aware of the many concerns about Mail since Mavericks came on board?
Has anyone found a good solution?
Thanks!
...John

I do note that:
Mail --> New Message --> Open Addresses
The Groups appear in the 1st Column, Individual Names in the 2nd & Email Addresses in the 3rd
Click on an individual name & the TO / CC / BCC buttons are active
But, clicking on a Group Name (if no name in the Group is selected) & the TO / CC / BCC buttons are grayed out.
You cannot add a Group name to the TO / CC / BCC fields in your message by double-clicking or dragging it from the Addresses.
And things really slow down if you type the group name into the fields - with unreliable & inconsistent results .
Any thoughts?
...John

Address Book and Mail - Using Groups for e-mail

I've noticed something strange about Mail and Address Book in Tiger:
I created a new Group in Address Book. The Group contains people who are involved in a project. I have names, home addresses and phone numbers for eveyone, but a few people do not have e-mail. When a try using this Group to send out an e-mail message, Mail warns me that John Smith does not appear to have a valid e-mail address. I can't send the message unless I select only those in the group who have e-mail addresses and only send to them. This is a pain.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in Tiger's Address Book and Mail.app? How can I get around this? I have several Groups like this that contain entries with no e-mail.

It's not a bug in Address Book, it's a limitation. Your only way to get around that is to either remove those from the group, or give them all the same email address; i.e., send those to you so you are reminded that they didn't get the email and you have to notify them some other way.
And of course, when sending to more than one person, never put the recipients in the To or CC field; they should always go in the BCC field.

How to send mail to groups or distribution lists

Ok so what appears to be a rather large problem with the Apple Mail Server. the complete lack of being able to create a group in workgroup manager and then have that group as an email account that when email is sent to the group name the mail is then sent on to all the members.
Now i know you can do it with postfix alias's but thats not the most user friendly way for users to administer their groups and DL's. Now OS X Server does have mailman mainling lists installed and this will do exactly what i want but it needs a few changes to stop behaving like a list and behave like a group or DL.
I made a PDF with the settings you need to change here
http://www.filefactory.com/file/61ad89/
its very dodgy but hopefully gets the information accross. I hope apple address this issue in 10.5 as this is a serious issue when trying to incorporate a apple mail server in an enterprise environment.
any questions you can email me on calum.h@[nospam]gmail.com
Cheers,

Sadly enough this is still behaving like a mailing list and it doesn't show any corelation to acting as a DL and working off of a system defined group.
There is little hope that apple will address this issue unless there is sufficient demand (there isn't at this time) and an available GNU GPL software solution already exists because they are not going to spend the time/money to create one from scratch.
Since mailman is python based it should be fairly easy to add the functionality you require by hacking the mailman source and have it act on group ID's rather than obtain a list of users.
If you tar up your existing /usr/share/mailman and /var/mailman (so you can restore when you're done), then edit the '.pyc' files in /usr/share/mailman to get the functionality you require, once you have this, tar up the /usr/share/mailman, send it to me, restore your backed up settings, send me the modified mailman archive and I'll fix it so that you can have both functionalities in mailman from the create command and a seperate interface to access the LD lists for manipulation.
I just don't want to do all of the work.

Sending mail to group... help!

I have created a group in Address Book... Some of the people have two or more email addresses in Address Book (home, school, work, etc.). When I go into Mail, and put the group in the "To:" box, all the names appear... but Mail automatically defaults to the first email listed for each person. Instead of selecting each person in the message, can I easily set the "primary" email address for each person. For example, I want my particular group to only send to the ".edu" addresses of each person. How can I easily change this?
Thanks for the help!

Copied from Address Book Help.
If group members have multiple email addresses, you can choose which address you want to use when sending mail to the group. Select the group, then choose Edit > Edit Distribution List. Select which of the members' addresses you want to use.

Can't Send Mail to Group

Hi,
I am having a problem sending a message to a Group in my Address Book-- I get this error message: "[SUSPEND] The mailbox is currently unavailable - please contact correspondent directly." It then prompts me to choose another SMTP server.
Since I am having no other problems sending or receiving mail, my guess is that there is something wrong with my group, or an address in my group. A note; I put myself in the group-- is that a no-no?

All internet service providers with the email account and SMTP server the ISP provides along with email account providers only have sending limits/restrictions for all personal/non-business email accounts.
For the email account and SMTP server provided by my ISP, there isn't a number of recipient's per message restriction but there is a total number of recipients for all messages sent in a 24 hour period restriction which can be exceeded with a single message.
You must wait until the 24 hour period expires which I believe is at midnight your time or whenever the 24 hour period begins/ends or if you are also accessing an email account and SMTP server provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet with Mail, you can select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send messages with your .Mac account.
These restrictions are part of an overall effort to prevent spam and bulk spam mailings emanating from the ISP's or email account provider's domain.
